The holidays are quickly approaching and stress often accompanies the festivities. Pure Aesthetics of Gainesville has some helpful tips to combat skin stress and have one less thing to worry about this holiday season.
What is the best way to combat skin stress?
Stress on the skin can be alleviated through skin health services that are both exfoliating and packed with antioxidants like Hydrafacial or DiamondGlow. BOTOX is also an excellent option that relaxes the muscles that create deep lines on the forehead and furrow between the brows.
If facial skin is experiencing dryness, having a skin care service that exfoliates and hydrates is one of the most effective remedies. Brightening, hydrating and collagen-pumping products are also great for stressed skin.
Though in-office treatments are beneficial, it is also crucial to maintain a skin regimen in between visits with quality medical-grade skin care products. Skin types and needs vary so start by setting up a skincare consultation to get a tailored regimen.
A massage is a simple and effective way to relieve stress. How often should someone get a massage?
Massages can help in many ways, including reducing stress, promoting relaxation, enhancing the immune system, reducing pain and muscle soreness by improving circulation, energy, and alertness, and lowering heart rate through stress relief. Taking time for a massage may sound like a luxury to some, but self-care is important and deserved.
For those who can’t come to the spa often, what are some helpful at-home self-care tips?
Have a quality stock of medical-grade products to maintain the work that is done in the office. Medical-grade masks, grade-strength retinol and at-home peels provide home treatments for relaxation, anti-aging and anti-acne treatments.
