The Benefits of Regular Facials: Your Key to Glowing Skin

In our fast-paced lives, finding time for self-care can be challenging. However, incorporating regular facials into your skincare routine can yield incredible benefits for your skin's health and appearance. Whether you’re new to facials or a seasoned skincare pro, understanding the myriad advantages of this pampering practice might inspire you to schedule your next appointment.

1. Deep Cleansing

Every day, our skin is exposed to pollutants, dirt, and other impurities that clog pores and lead to dull, tired-looking skin. Regular facials provide a deep cleansing that goes beyond what your daily skincare routine can achieve. Professional estheticians use specialized products and techniques to extract impurities, leaving your skin feeling fresh and revitalized.

2. Improved Circulation

Facials often include a gentle massage, which enhances blood circulation in your facial skin. This boost in circulation helps deliver more oxygen and nutrients to your skin cells, promoting a healthier, more radiant complexion. Improved blood flow also aids in detoxification, helping your skin eliminate toxins more effectively.

3. Exfoliation

Exfoliation is a key component of facials, helping to remove dead skin cells and promote the growth of new, healthy cells. Regular exfoliation can prevent clogged pores, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and even out your skin tone. Professional exfoliation methods, such as chemical peels or microdermabrasion, offer deeper and more effective results compared to at-home scrubs.

4. Customized Skincare

One of the significant benefits of regular facials is the personalized attention your skin receives. Estheticians assess your skin type and concerns, tailoring treatments to meet your specific needs. Whether you’re dealing with acne, dryness, aging, or sensitivity, a customized facial can address your unique skin challenges and help you achieve your skincare goals.

5. Anti-Aging Benefits

Facials can be a powerful tool in your anti-aging arsenal. Many facial treatments incorporate products and techniques that stimulate collagen production and improve skin elasticity. Regular facials can help minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, keeping your skin looking youthful and vibrant.

6. Stress Relief

The benefits of facials extend beyond just physical improvements. The relaxing environment of a spa and the soothing touch of a skilled esthetician can significantly reduce stress levels. Lower stress not only contributes to overall well-being but also benefits your skin, as high stress levels can lead to breakouts and other skin issues.

7. Education and Prevention

During a facial, you have the opportunity to learn more about your skin and how to care for it properly. Estheticians can offer valuable advice on skincare routines, product recommendations, and lifestyle changes that can enhance your skin’s health. This education empowers you to prevent future skin problems and maintain a glowing complexion between facials.

8. Immediate and Long-Term Results

While facials provide immediate improvements in the texture and appearance of your skin, the benefits are also cumulative. Regular facials can lead to significant long-term improvements in your skin’s health. Consistency is key to achieving and maintaining the best results.

Unveiling the Magic of Microneedling with the SkinPen.

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, involves creating tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin using fine needles. The SkinPen, a state-of-the-art microneedling device, takes this concept to the next level. It's the first FDA-cleared microneedling device, designed to improve the skin's appearance by stimulating natural collagen and elastin production, leading to healthier, more youthful-looking skin.

The Benefits of Microneedling: The SkinPen is celebrated for its versatility and numerous benefits, making it a sought-after treatment for various skin concerns:

1. Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: By boosting collagen production, microneedling can diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving the skin a smoother, more youthful look.

2. Improves Skin Texture and Tone: Regular sessions can help even out skin tone and texture, resulting in smoother, more radiant skin.

3. Minimizes Pores: The SkinPen can help reduce the size of enlarged pores, leading to a more refined skin appearance.

4. Reduces Acne Scars and Hyperpigmentation: It's particularly effective in treating acne scars and hyperpigmentation by promoting the turnover of skin cells.

5. Enhances Product Absorption: The tiny channels created by the SkinPen allow for better absorption of skincare products, making them more effective.

The SkinPen Procedure: What to Expect The microneedling process with the SkinPen is straightforward and minimally invasive. Before the procedure, a topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort. The SkinPen device is then gently moved across the skin, creating thousands of micro-injuries that kickstart the body’s natural healing process.

Post-treatment, patients can expect mild redness and swelling, similar to a sunburn, which typically subsides within a few days. While results can be noticed after just one session, a series of treatments is often recommended for optimal outcomes.

MICRO-NEEDLING - defined as “collagen induction therapy”, involves the use of a device that contains fine needles to create controlled skin injury “channels” that stimulate the body to fill these microscopic wounds by producing new collagen and elastin.

LASER GENESIS - this non-ablative laser procedure works by gently heating the upper dermis well below the surface of your skin to stimulate collagen production. The heat generated in dilated capillaries helps to reduce redness and promote healthy skin tone.

IPL~ Bye Brown Spots and Redness!

IPL devices use multiple wavelengths of light to treat sun-induced changes on the face, including freckles, brown pigmentation, and age spots. IPL may also be used for these changes on the hands, neck and chest. IPL is safe, non-invasive and is tailored to the individual patient’s skin.

For pigmentation treatments, patients can often expect brown spots to actually become darker after the initial treatment. Since IPL works by drawing pigment irregularities to the surface of the skin, this reaction is an indication that the treatment is working properly. For most patients, three to five treatments are required to achieve the best results.

Come see us and we can help you get your glow back!

Bye Bye Razors, Hello Lasers

What is LHR?

Laser Hair Removal (LHR) reduces unwanted hair permanently through the use of a laser. Hair growth patterns change with age. Whether it’s hair you’ve always had, or hair you’ve acquired over time, LHR could be an option for you. The laser works on follicles that are actively producing hair at the time of the treatment, so several treatments are necessary to get the follicles during their growth phase. Most areas require 3 to 6 treatments, spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart. Optimal long-term benefits depend on hair thickness, the area treated, and the particular natural growth cycle of the hair.

How does it work?

The laser uses the transfer of energy in the form of the laser light. The pigment in the hair follicle absorbs the laser light and converts it to heat. The heat loosens the hair and disables the cell from producing new hair. Simply put, the laser causes localized damage to the hair by selectively heating the dark pigment in the follicle, leaving the rest of the skin untouched.

What are the treatment areas?

At Glazer Facial Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery, we use the gold-standard Cutera System because not all lasers are created equal!  We can treat all skin tones and types with this best-on-the-market laser hair removal system. Treatment areas include face, legs, arms, underarms, back, bikini line, nipples and chest. We prefer no suntan in the area that is being treated, and only shaving prior to the treatment.

What to expect during and after a treatment?

The Cutera sends out bursts of cold air with each laser pulse. Most patients report a sensation of heat or stinging, so this cold air increases the comfort of the treatment. We can vary the intensity of the treatment for your comfort as well. After a treatment the area could be slightly red, and may feel like a mild sunburn. It’s important to use sunscreen if the area has to be exposed to the sun.

If you’re interested in shedding that unwanted hair for good, contact us to schedule a treatment. Take back that time you spend shaving in the shower. ‘Like’ us on Facebook and Instagram to see exclusive social-media-only Promotions and Giveaways. (219) 878-5031

The Secret is out! RF Microneedling is a Skin Game Changer!

Secret RF is one of the most effective treatments to tighten skin and improve fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the eyes, mouth, and cheeks.

Secret RF is also effective at reducing pore size, acne scars, and stretch marks. You will love the results as much as we do! During a treatment, microneedles penetrate the dermis and deliver fractional radiofrequency energy into the lower layers of subdermal tissue, at various depths. This triggers a healing response, which stimulates new collagen production and accelerates cell regeneration.

The secret of Secret RF is the perfectly spaced, micro-needles, which emit high-energy radio-frequency waves to target deeper layers of the skin. The precisely controlled RF energy applied directly to the skin at various depths stimulates the natural process of renewal in the skin without the risk of over-heating the skin or burning.

The procedure stimulates the regeneration of collagen and elastin production, providing lasting aesthetic effects. It is quick, lasting only 30 minutes with little to no recovery time.

Cutera’s Secret RF treatment is a wonderful non-surgical option for patients interested in treatment to remove unwanted wrinkles and scars with little to no downtime. It’s a safe, effective solution with many people seeing skin improvements after the first treatment, with optimal results seen after three treatments.
