A moisturising facial is one of the most basic and important procedures in facial skin care. Properly moisturised skin looks clear, radiant and healthy, and is more resistant to adverse environmental influences. This facial visibly eliminates signs of facial fatigue and smoothes wrinkles caused by moisture loss. The result is visible immediately. This intensive skin hydration treatment is suitable for all skin types and patients of all ages. The special composition of the professional cosmetic products guarantees extreme comfort and excellent skin condition. The Moisturising Treatment is a skin care treatment that deeply and effectively moisturises the skin and forms a protective lipid layer that prevents transepidermal moisture loss. The products used in this treatment fight dryness and dehydration. The most important thing is to moisturise the deep layers of the skin by activating oxidation and other metabolic processes in the basal skin cells. It is also a very important step to preserve the moisture stored in the skin by reducing transepidermal moisture loss and increasing resistance to harmful environmental factors. The production of collagen and elastin fibres is stimulated, which strengthens the connective tissue of the skin and improves skin firmness and elasticity.
Indications for treatment:
- Dry, sensitive skin;
- Wrinkles;
- Swollen, sagging skin;
- Wrinkled, scratchy skin;
- Sensation of skin tightness.
Procedure and description:
- Make-up is removed, skin is toned and prepared for the facial;
- A skin peel is performed according to the skin type and need, during which dead skin cells are removed;
- A gentle skin massage is performed, during which an intensive moisturising concentrate is applied to the skin using gentle massage movements;
- The face is then covered with an intensive hydrating mask, which saturates the skin with even more moisture;
- The face is then treated with a moisturising or nourishing cream;
- Duration of treatment – 1 hour. The treatment can be carried out 1-2 times a week if required.
After the treatment:
- You’ll enjoy brighter, more radiant skin. The intensive moisturising concentrate used in the Hydrating Facial is composed of advanced and effective ingredients that help regulate the skin’s moisture balance, stimulate microcirculation and metabolism.
- Smoother skin. The exfoliation and moisturising treatment stimulates blood flow to the skin, as well as collagen production and accelerates cell regeneration. When the skin is saturated with moisture, the skin’s colour is evened out and wrinkles caused by dehydration are visibly smoothed;
- Facial rashes are reduced. The skin helps to maintain moisture balance by secreting more sebum through the sebaceous glands. This leads to enlarged skin pores, which are often blocked due to the increased activity of the sebaceous glands, and eventually to blackheads and acne. Moisturising facial treatments are essential in such cases as they help to regulate the amount of sebum in the skin.
- Moisturised, firmer skin. Dehydrated skin causes itching and irritation, and quite often leads to redness and hypersensitivity. A hydrating facial helps to retain moisture in the inner layer of the skin and prevents moisture loss. After a course of several treatments, a new lipid layer of skin is formed.
- The components of creams, serums and other products are better absorbed.
Contraindications:
- Pustular and inflammatory skin disorders;
- Acute inflammation of the facial nerve;
- Fever;
- Immunological and infectious diseases;
- Oncological diseases;
- Inflammation of the trigeminal nerve;
- High blood pressure;
- Endocrine diseases.
There is a huge variety of facial treatments available today, but none of them are tailored to your specific skin condition and type. There are certain cases where simple skin treatments done at home are not enough to keep your skin healthy and beautiful. Moreover, not knowing how certain components of facial products work can easily damage your skin. It is therefore recommended to visit a beautician several times a year. Seeing a professional beautician or dermatologist for your facial care guarantees a professional skin examination, which is necessary to determine your skin condition and type, and which will lead to the selection of the right facial treatments and products to use at home.
