FAQ
Facials
1. What exactly is a facial, and why should I get one?
A facial is a skincare treatment designed to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and nourish your skin. It promotes skin health by improving circulation, addressingspecific concerns like dryness or acne, and encouraging natural cell regeneration. Regular facials help maintain a radiant complexion and can slow signs of aging.
2. How often should I get a facial?
For most people, a monthly facial is ideal, as skin cells regenerate every 28 days. If you’re dealing with issues like acne, aging, or extreme dryness, more frequent facials may be recommended to better address your skin's specific needs.
