Top 4 Reasons to Get Facials in Fort Collins

At Skin Deep, obviously, we love facials! But you might be surprised to learn about how many skin conditions facials help with, how many different kinds of facials we offer, and even some of the benefits you might not think of. Facials are so much more than an hour of self-care every few months. Let’s unpack the top 4 reasons to get facials.

Facials Treat a Wide Variety of Skin Conditions

Facials are truly one of the best ways to treat a variety of skin conditions that can cause daily, weekly, or monthly discomfort like acne, dry skin, and rosacea. For these conditions, facials are both preventative and help with current flair-ups.

We even have a specific teen acne facial perfect for teens dealing with sporadic breakouts to active acne. This deep-cleansing facial reduces breakouts and balances oil production. Our estheticians have successfully helped many teens and adults with acne feel more confident, reduce breakouts, and heal acne scarring.

Of course, facials also help with other common skin concerns like signs of aging including hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and fine lines. 

Any facial is uniquely customized to your personal needs and includes a combination of some or all of the following steps: skin analysis, deep cleanse, exfoliation, steam, extractions, personalized facial massage, specialty mask, and an application of skin-specific serums, moisturizers, eye cream, and SPF, all of which leave your skin looking and feeling youthful and fresh. Which leads us to our next point…

Facials are Highly Customizable

Not only do facials help with various skincare concerns, but they’re also highly customizable based on your skin type, skin goals, and any additional add-ons for further pampering and care.

Our estheticians are trained on a variety of professional-grade facials that address specific skincare concerns, and they can suggest facials that will help you achieve your goals. For example, our Circadia Oxygen Facial produces amazing results for our clients with acne, rosacea, or inflamed skin. Our Rezenerate Facial utilizes unique nanotechnology to painlessly reduce fine lines, blemishes, and signs of aging.

Aside from specific facials, we also offer a variety of add-ons to extend your care. So, if you want your esthetician to pay extra attention to your eyes, lips, or décolleté, these 15-minute add-ons allow them to do so! Clients can add eyebrow waxing, shaping, or tinting to a facial for further customization and pampering!

Facials are Preventative Care

We already touched on this a bit, but facials are amazing for preventative skincare. We love that many in the beauty industry are embracing more gentle but equally effective treatments like regular facials.

Facials exfoliate, removing layers of dead skin cells resulting in quicker regeneration of fresh skin cells. Facials also deeply hydrate, causing a more vibrant, healthy look. Certain facials help skin tone to be more consistent and reduce hyperpigmentation, which also slows down the signs of aging.

Additionally, many of our facials utilize gua sha facial massage, which naturally helps with lymph drainage and blood circulation. Keeping the blood flowing and toxins moving through your lymph system helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to skin cells and promote faster healing in your skin and lymphatic system.

Facials Nurture Your Skin and Your Soul

Last but certainly not least, we know from our own experience and see daily with our clients that the self-care and relaxation factor of getting a facial can’t be underestimated. Yes, facials are amazing for our skin! But they’re also great for the soul. The power of physical touch and connection are so essential in our human experience and many of us simply do not get enough of it.

And, we love that when our clients have healthy, rejuvenated skin, they walk out of the spa with the confidence that comes from both looking and feeling better.

If all this discussion doesn’t make you crave getting a facial, we don’t know what will! Whether or not facials have been a regular part of your life or an occasional treat, it’s time to come in for a facial and experience the variety of benefits—custom care for your unique skincare needs, preventative care for your skin, and overall just feeling nurtured and nourished body and soul.
