What Are the Benefits of an Exfoliating Facial?

 


Exfoliation provides many benefits to your skin by removing dead skin cells and speeding cell turnover. This helps to even out skin tone and restore a healthy glow. Exfoliating facials can be performed in different ways, either manually or chemically. 

Manual exfoliation is done with exfoliating agents such as sugar scrubs and sloughs away dead skin cells with scrub -like abrasives from the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin. Chemical exfoliation is performed with products that contain an exfoliating agent such as beta hydroxyl acids (BHAs) or alpha hydroxyl acids (AHAs). 

The Many Benefits of Exfoliation

Incorporating regular facial exfoliation into your skincare regimen is the best way to experience maximum benefits.  There are numerous benefits of exfoliation such as:

  • Increasing blood circulation 

  • Reducing fine lines and wrinkles 

  • Eliminating dead skin cells and oil that clog pores

  • Stimulating cellular renewal

Eliminating dead surface skin cells and oils helps to prevent whiteheads, blackheads, and other causes of acne flare ups that leave skin listless and dull. If you live in an urban area with high levels of air pollution, exfoliation is even more important.

How a Deep Tissue Massage Will Help Your Muscles

The deep tissue massage technique is used mostly to treat musculoskeletal issues such as sports injuries and strains. Deep tissue massage techniques include using deep, slow strokes while applying sustained pressure to target your muscles' inner layers and connective tissues. This type of massage will help to reduce tension in muscles and tissue and can help to break up scar tissue that forms after an injury. Deep tissue massage can also promote quicker healing by reducing inflammation and increasing blood flow. What Happens During a Deep Tissue Massage? Before starting your massage, the massage therapist will ask about any problem areas, pain, or injuries. A deep tissue massage can involve the whole body or focus on one particular area. Your massage therapist will start by warming up your muscles with a light touch before working into the problem areas. Deep kneading and stroking with varying levels of intensity of pressure will be applied to work out muscle aches and pains. A de...
