FAQs about facials answered by the Skin Studio UK

When it comes to managing skin, it can be a bit tricky to get the balance right.

Some people have dry skin, and moisturise too much, which can cause problems with greasiness. If you have combination skin, it can be hard to treat each area of your face correctly, to give that soft glow that so many people want to have.

And while you could waste a lot of money on facial creams, there is one way you can treat your skin with a bit of pampering for a minimal cost - with a facial.

At the Skin Studio UK, we are always happy to meet with new clients who may have had enough of managing their problem skin on their own, and the team at our skin clinic Surrey will always be able to recommend the best course of treatment to leave you with glowing, hydrated skin.

So, what are some of the key questions that our team at the skin clinic Surrey are asked by people who are undertaking their first facial treatment? Read on to find out.

What is involved in a facial?

A facial performed by our skin clinic Surrey involves the team gently cleansing your skin, to remove any dead cells and impurities from the surface. This is then followed by a gentle exfoliation, which will be done using an organic scrub, to remove any deeper set impurities. We then moisturise the skin, with a mixture of creams and oils, to leave your skin glowing and deeply hydrated.

How often should they be performed?

It is advisable to have a facial done about once a month, as this coincides with the skin's natural shedding cycle. This will also help it to have longer-lasting results, especially if it is done after the old layer of skin has been removed by the body.

Of course, you can have facials as often as you like, but take care if you have sensitive skin, as too much oil and exfoliation can cause issues.

When will I see the results?

You will see results as soon as you leave our clinic! Your skin will look rosier and will be glowing. But, a facial will also allow you to notice better results in your home skin care routine. Moisturisers and creams will be absorbed easily, and you will notice a general softness in your skin.

Can facials cause spots to appear?

Yes, facials can indeed cause you to have a temporary flare up of spots afterwards. This is because a facial is removing deeply set dirt, which had not been removed before the process, and the result is more spots. This will lessen the more you have facials performed.

What are the benefits of having facials done regularly?

The benefits are softer, healthier looking and feeling skin, alongside a reduction in wrinkles and dry skin. Facials also have been found to lower stress levels, allowing you to leave our clinic feeling calmer and more pampered.
