How Often Should You Get A Facial?

My clients always ask me, “how often should I have a facial?”. A regular facial routine, coupled with an at home skin care regime, is important to keep your skin healthy, clean and glowing! It will also help you reduce fine lines and wrinkles and keep your skin looking youthful.

But the answer to the question “how often” isn’t the same for everyone. There are several factors to consider when determining how often you should have a facial. What works for your friend, might not work for you, depending on your skin.

So I always like to start with a consultation so I can see your skin up close and determine your skin type. If your skin is oily or acne prone, you may want to schedule a facial more often. Skin with clogged pores and blackheads benefit from monthly visits.

During our consultation I’ll start off by asking “what are you skin care goals?” Are you look for more hydration? Do you need exfoliation and extractions? Or are you looking to slow down the signs of aging?

Next I need to know if you have any skin care issues or concerns? Do you struggle with acne? or have hormonally imbalanced skin?

Once we begin to determine these goals, we can set up a facial schedule and an at home routine that will help you reach your skin care goals.

The younger you are, the less often you’ll need a facial because younger skin rejuvenates more quickly. As you age, you’ll notice you’re skin needing more and more care. That’s why it’s important to start your skin care routines early on and mitigate any future aging.

I  typically recommend a facial every month - especially if you want to keep your skin glowing and looking youthful. Your skin’s life cycle is 3-4 weeks, after each cycle your skin cells grow back, so having a monthly facial will ensure your skin is always glowing.

As we enter the second month of the new year, why don’t you consider setting some new year skin care resolutions? Whether your concerns are hormonally imbalanced skin, aging, large pores, acne, etc. I can help you achieve your skin care goals.
