Facial treatments will revitalize and rejuvenate your skin, making you look younger, fresher, and more vibrant. Before you go in for your appointment, prepare yourself to get the best results possible.

3 Steps to Take Before a Facial

1. Tone Down Your At-Home Care Routine

It might seem counterintuitive, but you should take a step back with your skin care at home in the days leading up to your facial appointment. You want to provide the aesthetician with a blank, natural canvas, and strong at-home remedies or exfoliants can alter the state of your skin. Instead, stick to simple foam washes and light moisturizers two to three days leading up to the appointment. 

2. Prepare Target Areas

While your aesthetician will likely be able to spot areas that need work on their own, you should still come in with a game plan in mind. Think about what you hope to gain from the facial and discuss the best approach with the staff. For example, do you want to increase brightness and clarity? Are you concerned about blackheads? Make a list of these concerns before your appointment. 

3. Come With a Fresh Face

Right before your appointment, ditch any makeup so your face is clear for the facial. Drink at least two glasses of water ahead of time as well to ensure your skin is properly hydrated.
