I started getting facials when I was 21. They are my favorite way to spend an hour, not even kidding. If I could afford to get a facial once a week you better believe I would make that 40 minute drive every week! You read that right 40 minutes to get a facial because when you find someone who works with you & your skin, you put the time & miles in!I try to go every 2-3 weeks.
After I get microneedling, by a different esthetician, I wait about 2-3 weeks to get my normal facial. Ashley tells me to wait 3 but sometimes I can’t wait!
If I don’t wait the full 3 weeks, I always let Erica know & she is super sensitive with my skin & really personalizes my treatment. I’ve noticed with both Erica & Ashley, they personalize their treatments depending on how my skin looks or what they think I need to do in the moment. Ashley also does facials & sometimes she’ll do a facial treatment instead of a microneedle & then book me for the microneedling in a couple weeks.
If your esthetician isn’t customizing your treatment plan I would definitely look into going somewhere else…unless it works for you! LOL
Anyway, not only are facials the most relaxing thing on the planet, besides massages & lying on the beach, they are so beneficial. My skin is so hydrated & smooth & youthful every time I leave & for time after that. Sometimes if I go away or don’t know my work schedule I don’t make a follow up appointment & I always can tell when I need to text Erica & she always squeezes me in!
Also, make sure your esthetician gives you after care rules, I forgot to mention this in my microneedling post but the before & after care & you have to do both! Having a skincare routine, at any age, is so important. Whether you have perfect skin or not…you need to get into the habit of taking care of your skin!! Trust me
