Chemical Peel or Facial?

Chemical peels and facials are both result-driven treatments and work to either improve your areas of concern or keep it looking its best. Both peels and facials can be done regularly, under the supervision of your Spavia {LOCATION_TITLE} esthetician, as corrective and preventative treatments that can help target pigmentation, sun damage, dehydration, wrinkles, acne, etc. So which one is right for your skin type?

How often can you have a facial or peel? A basic facial that involves a thorough cleansing of the skin, extractions of blackheads if applicable, and the application of hydrating products, like creams and serums can be done weekly since it doesn’t involve removing the outer layer of the skin, making it typically more gentle. But keep in mind what your skin type is and its sensitivity. Your Spavia {LOCATION_TITLE} esthetician will recommend a regimen that won’t have any adverse effects. Our peels can generally be completed every two weeks with little to no downtime and recommended in a series of 6 treatments for the best results. A peel should be done far less often because it involves removing the outer layer of the skin and targeting specific skin concerns like discoloration, dullness, and acne. Going into the spa for a peel too often can cause inflammatory responses in the skin, such as redness and skin damage. 

What are the benefits of a facial? Deep cleansing to remove dirt and oil from your pores and increased circulation for glowing skin are just a few of many. The extractions of blackheads on your nose, forehead, and chin will lead to your skin looking smoother and poreless. When you get facials regularly, you can also enjoy benefits like a more hydrated complexion and improvement of common skin care concerns like uneven skin tone, dullness, and dehydration.

What are the benefits of a peel? Getting a peel once every other month or twice a year, depending on your needs, has many benefits. Chemical peels will typically target a specific skin concern, such as fine lines, acne, rough texture, dullness, discoloration or hyperpigmentation, and attack it more directly than a basic facial. When the outer layer of your skin is removed, it allows the healthier, brighter, more younger-looking skin underneath to emerge. Your skin then heals evenly and results will usually show right after. Although additional treatments may be needed, even one peel treatment can bring about results that you’ve never seen before.
