I've never had a facial before. What would be the best Bioelements Facial for a first-time client?

When an esthetician meets you for the first time, she is going to be "introduced to your skin", too! The first time you receive a facial, your skin will experience something entirely new and receive some professional attention and care. For this reason, you need a facial that is flexible enough to meet your skin's exact needs, be safe, yet effective.



This personalized facial is totally customized from start to finish! You will experience a custom blended deep pore cleansing, exfoliation and massage of the face, neck and shoulders followed by a custom blended serum designed to correct specific problems and therapeutic Bioelements mask. You will emerge an hour later with immaculately clean, smooth and glowing skin.

What are the benefits of a professional treatment?

Your skin's natural tendency is to heal itself, however, sometimes we need help in order to achieve maximum results. Things like hormones, stress and seasonal changes can bring on trouble that's best addressed by a pro. Regular skin care facials result in clearer skin due to professional exfoliating on an ongoing basis, and smoother, more radiant skin is a result of the professional massage that may be included in your facial.

Your skin will learn to adjust more quickly to life's stressors — and as you keep regular treatment appointments with your esthetician, she’ll learn the cyclical changes that occur with your skin and will adjust your products – from facial masks to anti-aging cremes – to maximize results.

Why is a professional facial massage good for the skin?

Besides being incredibly relaxing, it is very healthy for your overall well-being, especially your skin. Professional facial massage nourishes the skin by increasing blood circulation and firms and tones the skin and muscles through the specific movements that your esthetician performs with her hands. It also helps rid the skin of toxins by moving it through your system and stimulates nerve endings, leaving it feeling warm and tingly. Finally, it reduces stress through the touch of your esthetician's hands, and your skin is left soft and smooth with a healthy glow.

Is there more than one type of facial massage? How does my esthetician know which one is right for me?



For example: You may be concerned about loss of firmness, sagging, or dull complexion. If this is the case, your esthetician will perform a more stimulating massage with firmer movements.

If, on the other hand, your skin is more delicate, red and prone to oil or breakouts, your esthetician will perform movements that are slow, gentle with less pressure.

The professional products used also play a part. If you have a dry skin type, the product used may be a cream base or rich oil. If your skin is oily, your esthetician may choose a gel based massage product.

How soon will I see results?

Immediately. By the end of the facial, your skin will feel firmer, brighter, smoother and have a more even overall tone. Although relaxation is the benefit that we most often clamor for, it's just the tip of the iceberg as to why Facial Massage is such an important step to achieve healthy skin.

How often can extractions be performed?

First things first - only a professional should perform extractions. Your professional esthetician will set up a program that is right for your skin, but extractions can be a part of every facial that you receive. In each facial, she will prep your skin and gently remove the blackheads; she will also make sure that she applies professional-use-only products to treated areas to prevent bacteria from re-invading the pores and causing more breakouts.



The bottom line is you need to let the professionals take charge in a professional setting. This will help keep your breakouts under control, and you'll have the advice of a licensed professional that will make sure your skin looks its best.

What is an esthetician and why is it important that I visit one?

An esthetician is a licensed skin care specialist educated in microbiology, anatomy, skin physiology and cosmetic chemistry. Estheticians receive up to 1500 hours of specialized education and pass stringent exams to obtain a state license.

Plus, the estheticians at a Bioelements Partnership Spa have had extensive advanced training on Bioelements treatments and prpducts. And just like a personal trainer designs a program to help your body get in great shape, she will carefully monitor the progress of your skin to make sure you get the results you want.

She’ll identify your exact skin type, plan a treatment program specifically for you, and professionally recommend take-home products targeted to address your skin concerns. Rather than a hit-or-miss approach to skin care, she’ll customize an agenda based on your individual goals.

Professional-use-only: maximum strength, maximum results

The best treatments use the best products – a facial is only as good as the products used in it. So why waste your time? During a Bioelements treatment, maximum levels of lab-strength ingredients will be infused into your skin via highly active natural and cosmeceutical professional-use-only serums that have been Custom Blended for you right in the treatment room.

Professional-use-only products are designed solely for use by trained Bioelements skin care professionals in the treatment room. These formulas are extremely effective yet safe-on-the-skin, and are not for resale. They are a part of Bioelements targeted facial and body treatments, and your skin care professional receives thorough education on how to use them to deliver results.
