TREATMENT STEP BY STEP
PRE TREATMENT
Although contraindications for facial treatments are unusual, it is important to let your esthetician know of any skin conditions you might have, diagnosed or suspected, other aesthetic treatments you have received in the last few weeks, as well as whether you are pregnant, planning to get pregnant, or lactating. This is to ensure a safe and effective treatment. Further on, our experienced estheticians will perform a skin assessment to determine your skin type and its specific needs and tailor a safe and effective combination of products and facial treatment.
DURING YOUR TREATMENT
At 3D Medical Aesthetics, your skin needs and aesthetics goals are the basis for building a highly-customized treatment plan. Several of the steps outlined below are however commonly experienced during a facial treatment. After cleansing the skin to gently remove impurities and bring the skin to a pH balance, your esthetician will tone and prep the skin for treatment. Applying a toner is also useful to gauge the sensitivity of your skin and avoid over or under treatment. Then, an enzyme treatment will exfoliate dead skin to build up and open the pores to prepare for better absorption of your mask's components. The appropriate mask is applied after, and might target fine lines, wrinkles, dehydration, or acne, and can saturate your skin with antioxidants and peptides. This mask can be complemented with a series of targeted treatment serums to address more specific skin needs and conditions. A layer of protective serum is then applied to the skin, and while your skin is hard at work revitalizing under the effect of hand-picked science-based solutions, a massage of the hands and neck will help you relax and enjoy its full effects.
POST TREATMENT
The aesthetician will recommend home care, products for your specific skin needs, and future treatments to maintain and enhance results. It is a great moment to discover any combination of treatments that work best together and may help you reach your aesthetics goals quicker and efficiently. As your skin may be overly exposed and sensitive after a facial treatment, the use of a 30 or higher SPF sunscreen cream is highly recommended. You may also consider to skip using a toner or heavy make-up for the rest of the day.
BEFORE & AFTER
FAQ
Most frequent questions and answers
Facials consist of many ingredients, including peptides, enzymes, antioxidants, retinol, BHA, AHA, plant extracts, and various vitamins, among others. These components promote skin health in many different ways.
Retinoids are perhaps the most used and most studied anti-aging compounds. When spread on the skin, these topical vitamin A–based drugs can unclog pores and also reduce acne outbreaks by preventing dead cells from clogging pores. Retinoids also reduce fine lines and wrinkles by increasing the production of collagen and improve skin color by stimulating the production of new blood vessels in the skin.
Peptides, on the other hand, are the building blocks of certain proteins needed by the skin, like collagen and elastin. Using a facial treatment that contains peptides can lead to firmer, younger-looking skin, and potentially even fewer breakouts. Peptides seem to be less irritating than retinoids, which may make them a good anti-aging choice for people with sensitive skin.
Antioxidants are substances that help protect the skin’s surface from oxidative damage caused by free radicals and environmental aggressors like UV light and pollution. The most familiar ones are vitamin C and Vitamin E. Facials that include antioxidants have powerful anti-aging benefits and restorative qualities.
Another category of widely used anti-aging skincare compounds are hydroxy acids, such as AHA and BHA. These ingredients are very effective in reversing the effects of photoaging and improving wrinkles, skin elasticity, tone and hydration. It is important to understand that the level to which these components interact with each other and serve as substitutes or complements in facial treatments and skin care in general varies greatly.
The complexity increases considering individual skin qualities and genetics. Our highly trained and knowledgeable estheticians will tailor the best facial treatment for your skin needs.
Facials can help repair skin at any age by making it more hydrated, resilient, and able to defend against environmental damage. That’s why it’s never too early to start, whether you’re in your twenties or sixties.
Facials can be repeated as desired or necessary and in consideration of the time period necessary for the treatment to give its full effects. Many clients have facial treatments once a month.
Men’s facials, similarly to facial treatments for women, treat skin that has been damaged by environmental elements such as sun and wind, aging, or other conditions. Our experienced estheticians however can customize facials for men to target skin problems men commonly face, such as ingrown hairs or razor bumps, razor burns, sensitivity, and dullness.
