Meridian Facial

Meridian facials are often sought for both their potential cosmetic and holistic benefits. They aim not only to improve the appearance of the skin but also to enhance overall well-being by addressing energy imbalances in the body. 

Consultation:

• The session often begins with a consultation to assess your skin type, concerns, and any specific issues you'd like to address, such as dryness, dehydration, or dullness.

• The esthetician starts by cleansing your face to remove any makeup, dirt, or impurities, creating a clean canvas for the subsequent treatments.

• A gentle exfoliation follows to eliminate dead skin cells, allowing better absorption of subsequent hydrating products. Exfoliation can be mechanical (using a scrub) or chemical (using enzymes or acids).

• Some facials incorporate steam or warm towels to open up pores, aiding in removing impurities and preparing the skin for deeper hydration.

• If needed, the esthetician may perform manual extractions to remove black or whiteheads, helping clear the skin.

• Locate specific acupressure points on the face, neck, and head that correspond to different meridians in the body.

• A hydrating mask rich in moisturizing ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, or glycerin, is applied to nourish and replenish the skin's moisture balance.

• High-quality serums and moisturizers specifically chosen for their hydrating properties are applied to the skin. These products may contain hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, or botanical extracts.

• If the facial is done during the day, a broad-spectrum sunscreen is often applied to protect the skin from UV damage.

• The esthetician may provide recommendations for at-home skincare, including products and practices to maintain the benefits of the facial.
