ABOUT FACIALS

A good home skin care routine is important for maintaining a great complexion. Occasionally, however, you often could use a little more help with a medical-grade facial. Selected based on the needs and concerns of your skin, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Kirk Moore recommends regular facials for his Midvale, UT patients to keep their complexion healthy. After a thorough consultation to assess visible and hidden damage, the best medical-grade products and facial techniques will be selected to help improve your skin. To further rejuvenate and pamper your skin, customize your facial by adding another treatment, like a chemical peel, microdermabrasion, or an injectable filler. Schedule your appointment for a professional facial at Plastic Surgery Institute of Utah to elevate the health and beauty of your skin to the next level.

IDEAL CANDIDATES

Professional facials at Plastic Surgery Institute of Utah are suitable for all ages and skin types because they are customized to each person’s needs and concerns. Typically, facials are created to correct signs of aging (fine lines, wrinkles, and dry patches), improve sun-damaged skin (dark spots, rough texture, and uneven tone), deep clean acne and clogged pores, and brighten dull and sallow skin. Facials can be designed to help teens or adults with chronic conditions, like acne outbreaks, sensitive skin, and rosacea. The effects of a facial can be enhanced with another nonsurgical procedure, such as microdermabrasion, a chemical peel, or injectable wrinkle treatments.

PROCEDURE TECHNIQUE

After your consultation to select your best treatment based on your skin type and concerns, you will relax in one of our treatment rooms as your facial begins. Every facial will be unique, but most will start with a deep cleansing to remove dirt, oil, and makeup. After that, steam is used to open clogged pores so blackheads and whiteheads can be extracted. This is usually followed by a type of exfoliation, either performed manually or with an added treatment (microdermabrasion or chemical peel). A mask or serum will then be massaged into the skin for deep nourishment. Finally, an SPF moisturizer will be applied to protect from sun damage after the treatment.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Following your facial, you may see some redness and irritation, but this should subside naturally within a day. Many patients will see visible improvements in the appearance and feel of their skin immediately after their treatment. To maintain and enhance the results of your facial, please talk to one of our experienced team members about how to create an at-home skin care regimen that accurately addresses your unique concerns. While you’re here, you can also inquire about how often to schedule a professional facial at Plastic Surgery Institute of Utah. You may also want to discuss complementary treatments, like microdermabrasion and chemical peels, to further enhance your results.
