I AM GETTING MY FIRST FACIAL... YAAAAY?

Posted by Lawal Remilekun on

Facial treatments seem to me like a form or relaxing ritual combined with the benefits of fixing my facial chaos. So whenever I get the opportunity to try something new I scream, "SIGN ME UP"

I spent consultation day trying to decide what type of of facial to sign up for at the spa... Everything sounded so intriguing [deep cleansing facial,deep hydration facial, anti-aging facial, oily/acne skin treatment facial, clay facial]

Sounds like music to my adventurous ears! I heard niacinamide, collagen, ocean algae extracts, facial massage, enzyme mask,hydroxy acids,  hyaluronic acid, and I was jumping in excitement! YES RADIANCE... KEEP A SEAT FOR ME AT THE BLINDING GLOW TABLE! 

But now the big question... "VACUUM PORE EXTRACTION OR MANUAL EXTRACTION? 

For anyone looking to unclog their pores, a good extraction can be very beneficial for your skin. Before we go all in, let's touch a few basis. 

WHAT ARE EXTRACTIONS? 

An extraction is literally "exhuming" dirts, oils, makeup, sweat, excesses sebum and all the stored up gunks inside your pores. Although our body's sebaceous glands produces this oily substance called Sebum which helps protect your skin, over production of this substance could lead to acne and blackheads and/or whiteheads. 

VACUUM EXTRACTION VS MANUAL EXTRACTION? 

When you visit a spa for your facial treatment, you need to ask what method is going to be used and be upfront about your fears and concerns. For me, manual extraction is a no-go area! 

The process of extraction usually involves using professional tools to either apply suction (vacuum extraction)  or to press around a clogged pore to release what's inside (manual extraction). 

However, with manual extraction a lot of things could go wrong! If not done properly you could definitely end up with the opposite result you were aiming for; scarring, inflammations, infections, pushing the bacteria deeper into your skin hence MORE BREAKOUTS! 

Vacuum extraction at REMMY SAUVAGE SPA & AESTHETICS  is a mechanical technique using a skin vacuuming device with enough suction to suck up dirts and oil build up as it passes the skin surface. The process involves double cleansing, application of hydroxy acids & steaming to soften around the skin before the suctioning is applied. It literally sucks up all the grime and cleanses the pores!

The application of these hydroxy acids & steaming also helps to loosen the pores and prep the facial skin for extraction. This process is very effective as it helps exfoliate your skin, unclog your pores and keep blackheads at bay without causing painful irritation. 

So I say yes to vacuum extraction and all other non invasive treatments... Durrrr... A facial treatment that promises less pain but very effective result is definitely something I would put my money on!!! 

Is this something you would like to try???
