Here’s Why You Should Add Monthly Facials to Your Skincare Routine
Have you ever wondered how to elevate your skincare routine beyond the basics? Many patients ask us how they can restore and maintain their skin without invasive procedures. Here, our licensed aesthetician, Shelby Mobley, weighs in on why incorporating regular facial treatments can be a game-changer for your skin.
The science behind facials
Hagerstown facials are more than just an hour of indulgent pampering. They have synergistic benefits for the health and appearance of your skin, both in the short and long term. A professional facial is a multi-step skin treatment that thoroughly cleanses, exfoliates, and nourishes the skin to promote a clear, well-hydrated complexion, helping improve the health (and, therefore, the appearance) of your skin.
Expert skin analysis
One of the most significant advantages of getting regular facials from a professional is the personalized skin analysis. A licensed aesthetician understands the structural aspects of skin conditions and aging, providing insight into how you can improve the overall health of your skin.
Tailored treatments for skin concerns
We identify your specific skin type, understand your unique concerns, and recommend skincare treatments and products tailored to your needs. A facial provides an excellent opportunity to treat specific skin issues like hyperpigmentation, acne, dryness, or rosacea with professional-grade products and equipment. Consistent treatments can significantly improve the quality and texture of your skin without needing more invasive procedures.
Professional deep cleansing & exfoliation
Even if you are diligent with your daily skincare routine, your skin needs deeper cleansing to remove the dirt, oil, and dead skin cells that regular washing cannot fully reach. Typically, most facials include a thorough cleansing process to help prevent the buildup of such impurities.
Another important step during most facials is exfoliation, which removes dead skin cells from the skin’s surface, unclogs pores, and primes the skin for better absorption of skincare products. Together, these steps help prevent blemishes and keep your skin looking healthy and radiant.
A professional skin analysis offers long-term benefits that go beyond a superficial treatment.
Anti-aging benefits
Regular facials reveal refreshed skin, promote cell turnover, boost collagen and elastin production, and maintain a healthy skin barrier—all of which help keep your skin in optimal condition for confident aging. Free radicals and sun exposure are two primary causes of visible skin aging, and over time, our skin’s natural ability to repair itself and protect against environmental damage diminishes. Scheduling a monthly facial can supplement your skin’s defenses against premature aging.
Stress relief and self-care benefits
Aside from the benefits personalized facials have for your skin’s health and appearance, these treatments help you relax and de-stress. We use proven massage techniques during facials to boost blood circulation and lymphatic drainage. Increased blood flow allows essential nutrients to reach your skin cells and encourages proper drainage of your lymph system to help your body purge toxins, excess fluid, and inflammation that can make you look puffy. Massage also relaxes facial muscles which can slow the onset of wrinkles.

A complement to other procedures
If you have recently had other non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatments such as microneedling or chemical peels, a regular facial can help maintain the effects of these treatments.
Facials are also excellent complements to injectable treatments, such as Botox® and dermal fillers like Juvéderm®. We also recommend facials after surgical rejuvenation to enhance facial procedures’ results.
