Southern Style: Hitting The Reset Button for your Face
Contrary to the appearance of my modeling photos, which I will be the first to admit are touched up, my skin can always use some extra help.
There’s scarring from a childhood bout with chicken pox, there’s two scars from incidents with the monkey bars as a child, and just the general issues of living in the modern world with pollution in the air and wearing makeup. It’s doubtful my skin can or every will be perfect.
And yet, I still try, mostly in vain, to get there.
Sometimes you just need to hit the reset button for your skin. One of the ways you can do that is with microdermabraision. And while I’ve had many microderm treatments before, none was as soothing and pleasurable ast the microdermabraision treatment I got as Beesa Skincare recently.
Brooke Kinross, owner and esthetician, explained to me it was because this verision was really more of a spa treatment than just a regular microderm.
In layman’s terms: it was a good hour long time of relaxation, with a deep cleaning of my skin, followed by a soothing treatment and at least one moment where I almost fell asleep with the result of my skin being obviously cleaner right after but also the next day.
In industry terms, I have to ask Brooke what exactly we did!
Brooke, step by step, what exactly did you do to me?!
Every facial should include some form of exfoliation to help remove dead skin buildup and allow all of the products to better penetrate the skin. They can’t work very well when they sit on top of dead skin cells!
There are 2 main types of exfoliation, chemical and physical. I actually performed both on you during this facial, using a method I refer to as “stacking”, because I believe it delivers the best results.
