Other Facials

Even if you limit sun exposure, stay hydrated, and use high-quality skincare products as part of your daily regimen, your skin can benefit from periodic facials at our Medford, Oregon, medical spa. A traditional facial performed by an aesthetic specialist has multiple benefits besides the soothing nature of the treatment.

Traditional Steam Facial

A steam facial offers multiple benefits that you might not be aware of. The treatment begins with thoroughly cleansing the skin using a mild cleanser to remove any impurities, makeup, and excess oils. This prepares the skin for the remainder of the facial.

We then use steam and hot towels to open clogged pores for a deeper cleanse. The soothing warmth of the towels and steam is one of the best parts of the facial. You can then choose to have a serum applied to the skin followed by a moisturizer.

The benefits of a steam facial include:

Promoting circulation: The combination of warm steam and an increase in perspiration dilates the blood vessels and boosts circulation, nourishing the skin and resulting in a natural, healthy glow.

Exfoliation: Steam gently exfoliates the skin without harsh abrasives. It helps remove dead skin cells, bacteria, and other impurities that clog pores.

Hydration: A steam facial penetrates the skin to deeply moisturize the face by stimulating oil production. Applying serum and moisturizer immediately after steaming keeps the skin hydrated.

Better absorption: Opening the pores improves the skin’s permeability, enabling it to better absorb topical creams or serums. This increases the benefits and efficacy of your skincare products.

Even though a steam facial won’t produce the same results as you’ll get from one of our Biologique Recherche facials, it can help boost your overall skincare regimen.
