What Are the Benefits of a Facial for Teenagers?

It’s a fact that most teenagers will experience clogged pores, acne and breakouts at some point during their teen years. Despite being busy with school, their social life and sports, it’s very important for them to learn the importance of good skin care.

If you have a teen or if you are a teen reading this, here are reasons why you should consider a teen facial:

What are the benefits of a teen facial?

There are many benefits of facials, but for teens in particular, facials will help clean out blackheads and clogged pores caused by oil production. Skin care products used at home can only help reduce clogged pores. It takes a professional esthetician to properly prepare and soften the skin before manual extractions can take place in a safe and effective way.

Also, facials are geared to problem solve. The level of the intensity of a facial is contingent on the severity of the skin’s issues. Teens tend to have problem skin, but what works for some might not work for others. An esthetician can offer advice on the best way to address a teen’s specific skin concerns.

Part of getting a facial is receiving a lesson from experts on how to care for the skin properly. This information includes which products will work best for each person based on his or her skin type

What age is best for a teen facial?

During the teenage years, hormones start to fluctuate which aggravates the skin and can cause breakouts. Those who produce a lot of oil and/or have weak follicular walls will experience more severe breakouts, including stubborn cystic acne. That being said, age 13 is a good time for teens to start coming in for facials. Even if problem skin isn’t yet an issue, it’s a good time to start teaching teenagers how to care for their skin.

What does a teen facial include? A teen facial at Art of Skin Care includes a thorough skin analysis to determine the teen’s skin type and needs of his or her skin. The skin is gently exfoliated using enzymes to loosen and digest away dry cells and prepare the skin for deep pore cleansing. Warm towels are also included to soften the pores, which will allow for gentle manual extractions. A customized mask appropriate for the skin type is then applied and the facial is finished with an oil-free lotion. During the facial, the ways in which diet and lifestyle can affect the skin are also discussed, as well as suggestions about how to care for the skin at home with simple, but effective routines.

How often should teens have facials? This truly depends on the skin issues of each teen. Depending on the severity of problem skin, we recommend every 2 weeks for those who have plenty of issues with acne and every 4 months for maintaining healthy, clear skin.
