The Benefits of Regular Facials

Facial

If you have ever treated yourself to a facial, you know that luxurious feeling that leaves you feeling amazing afterwards! A facial can help us to get that gorgeous glow we hear people talking about, as our skin is cleansed, exfoliated and massaged using quality products that we may never think to use ourselves every day.


Facials are the ideal treat that leaves you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated, both physically and emotionally, as you take a break to pamper yourself.


But facials can be more than a temporary fix for wellbeing. 

Why have regular facial treatments?

Choosing to have a regular facial treatment is full of benefits, including improving the long-term health of your skin, which here on the coast is extremely important.


A monthly facial treatment can help to stimulate collagen and elastin production, strengthen facial muscles and help to minimise fine lines or signs of ageing.


So what can regular facials achieve?

1. Remove dead skin cells

The easiest way to refresh our skin and start to get that gorgeous glow is to remove the layer of dead skin that sits at the top of our skin barrier.


Exfoliation is an important step in removing these dead cells, clearing pores, and leaving your face feeling refreshed as healthy, new and radiant skin is revealed.

2. Improve circulation

Regular facial treatments will also include the benefit of regular facial massages, which will help to boost circulation, bringing blood and oxygen up to the skin surface for a healthy glow.


Increased circulation helps to move important nutrients to the skin that detoxify that surface layer, reducing the risk of acne or other skin blemishes.

3. Reduce the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles

The repetition of cleansing, exfoliating and hydrating the skin that occurs during regular facials can aid in plumping the skin and smoothing out fine lines, whether they are due to dehydration or ageing.


The use of massage in facials activates circulation which stimulates collagen production and strengthens face muscles, leaving you looking and feeling younger with smoother skin! When we hit 25 our natural collagen production starts to decrease, so it’s always good to give it a little boost.

Which facial is the right choice for me?

If your skin is prone to breakouts, a regular facial may just be the key to clearer skin!


A facial involves a deep cleanse, the perfect detox for your skin. Removing excess oils and unclogging pores can reduce the appearance of blackheads, whiteheads and dull or bumpy skin. The regular routine will also encourage healthier cells and cell regeneration, improving the appearance of acne scarring or spots, bumps and blemishes!

5. Hydration
