Choosing Day Spa Skin Treatments
Choosing Day Spa Skin Treatments
As you plan your trip to the day spa, you’re probably thinking about what you’ll do there. You may be specifically thinking about what treatments you want to have. When it comes to the skin treatments, if you’re considering any higher-end skin treatments, decide in plenty of time to make the arrangements.
The primary skin treatment at any day spa is a facial. In its simplest form the facial involves a facial scrub and cleanser and perhaps the removal of a blackhead here and there. It feels great and leaves your skin clean, smooth and refreshed.
If you have blemishes, brown spots, sun damage that you would like to rid yourself of, or if you’re feeling very wrinkled and would like to reduce the appearance of those lines, more advanced skin treatments may be exactly what you need.
Microdermabrasion (micro) exfoliates your skin, taking off the top layer to remove damaged skin and erase or reduce blemishes, scars and the like. You will need several treatments of micro, so keep that in mind, but the results can be fantastic.
Chemical peels are another way to exfoliate the outer layer of the skin. They can help improve acne and sun damage, and improve the overall look of your skin much the way micro does.
If you go to a medical day spa, you will also have the option of Botox injections to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Make sure any injections you get are administered by qualified personnel, and do understand that you’ll want a Botox booster every few months.
If you are looking for ways to look good after you leave the spa, the facial skin treatment alternatives give you a lot of room to do something really special for yourself.
But don’t stop with your face. Consider having a body scrub before your massage, to really pamper yourself and enjoy your day.
For most of us, visiting a day spa is a once in a while thing. It’s hard to justify to ourselves, sometimes, getting a facial or a peel. But the fact is, we need to do things for ourselves, to help us work and live better. We need pampering once in a while. Everyone does.
Understanding that, isn’t it worth thanking the time to choose exactly the spa skin treatments that will help you feel great while you’re getting them and after you leave the spa and go out into the world?
It may seem a little (or a lot) vain to have this kind of facial, but people do have them, and they do look better. And you have a right to feel good about your appearance and about how you take care of yourself.
So why not sign up for a day at the spa, have a micro or a peel, have a body scrub, get a massage, and totally pamper yourself just for a little while? If you’re like most people, your life will go right back to crazy the next day, so why not enjoy a little sanity now?
