Benefits of Having a Full Facial Treatment at Ysa Skin and Body Experts



For many of us, skin care is very important especially when it comes to our faces. After all, the face is usually one of the first things that we notice when we meet people.

Aside from the aesthetics aspect though, caring for our facial skin is important for healthy reasons. Recently, I had a full facial treatment at the Ysa Skin Care Center branch in Festival Mall, Alabang which made me want to come back for succeeding treatments. 

I love the pampering because it involved a cool and rejuvenating clay mask containing natural herbal extract, sea collagen, and moisturizers that was left on my face for around 10 minutes; application of Cetaphil lotion to prepare the skin for the succeeding procedures; ultramask treatment using a low voltage wand to open the pores; suctioning of dirt and dead skin; steaming for another 10 minutes; manual pricking; another session of ultramask to close the pores; diamond peel; then application of an acne mild solution.

For those wondering, Ultramask uses a beam of laser energy to vaporize the upper layers of damaged skin with accurate precision. As new cells form during the healing process, a smoother, tighter, and younger-looking skin surface will appear.

Diamond peel, on the other hand, is a fast and pain-free, non-surgical exfoliation of the skin using natural diamond chips and, at the same time, vacuuming dead skin cells away to promote the growth of healthy new skin cells, leaving a smoother skin texture. When the epidermal cell structure regenerates, skin elasticity and collagen levels are improved. The good news is, this treatment restores and maintains the health of the skin with little, or no redness, at all.

The last solution they usually apply to end a full facial is erythromycin lotion, an antibiotic that slows the growth of acne-causing bacteria on the skin. I appreciated it very much that my therapist did a skin test first using a cotton bud to see if I am not allergic to the lotion. 

Unfortunately, the small patch of skin on my neck turned red so she just applied a mild acne lotion instead. This one is a specially formulated astringent that smoothens, tones, and purifies the skin to restrain the growth of bacteria, and controls oiliness to reduce the recurrence of pimples, blackheads, and blemishes.

make up-free and healthy skin! 
Over the years, I’ve found that having a facial is a great way to relax while my skin gets rejuvenated in process. Because it also slows down premature aging and helps prevent wrinkles, I do feel and look younger after every treatment.

Visit one of Ysa’s branches and experience the many benefits of a full facial treatment like I did. I am sure you’ll also be delighted at the results right after you step out of the clinic :)
