Dr. Rania Mousa General Medicine
Facials (nettoyage) is one of the ways to take care of your skin, especially when it's given by an experienced, knowledgeable specialist.

A facial cleans, exfoliates and nourishes the skin, promoting a clear, well-hydrated complexion, and can help your skin look younger.It is a combination of thorough steaming, deep cleansing, facial extractions to remove pore-clogging sebum, and a healing mask and moisturizer

It 's effectiveness depends on the professional doing the process and your skin sensitivity .
the expert must have a look at your face type and he may try to evaluate your eligibility to the process ,

Not more then a facial monthly because that's how long it takes the skin to regenerate is thought to be good ,or a facial four times a year, as the season changes. That depends and personal to every one type and condition of skin and your need to.

You may need it more frequently if you are trying to clear up a case of acne, especially at the beginning. this decision is taken by your doctor and specialist following your skin up .

>Facials can work wonders when it comes to extracting dirt and bacteria from pores and improving the overall look of your skin.

Consult your dermatologist before undergoing the treatment to ensure that it fits your skin type, and check out the credentials of the aesthetician who will be performing the procedure. Most side effects do not require treatment, but seek medical attention for severe reactions.

SIDE EFFECTS :

>Redness and blotchy skin from the pressure of exfoliation and extractions. Avoid wearing makeup or using any products on your skin in the day or two following your facial to give your skin time to heal. Avoid scheduling facials within three days of a big event at which you want to look your best.

>Post-facial breakouts often result from bacteria that makes its way onto your skin during your facial. Steam machines and improperly sterilized tools can be breeding grounds for such bacteria. To eliminate this risk, request that the technician not use tools during your treatment.

> A risk of damaging the outer layer of your skin,due to exfoliating process.
Your facialist will likely exfoliate your skin during the process of the facial to bring your freshest layer of skin to the surface. But harsh exfoliation can leave your skin feeling dried out and itchy.

Use a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer daily to combat dryness.

Avoid sun exposure after your facial because UV rays can further exacerbate dry skin.

>it is advisable not to do it directly before a specific occasion such as party engagement wedding birthday ,... because at the day and after you might complain of redness swelling discomfort ,open sensitive pores ,you might at that time feel your skin is not clear especially if your skin is sensitive after 2 -3 days and sometimes a week depending on ones reaction to the process. you may feel better and the face will look clear .

>There is possibility of having an acne flare-up following a facial and the face may get worse instead of improving in some cases. Depending on your skin color, the darker it is the more there is possibility of leaving pigmentation thus the need for treatment.

>However ,if not done by a trained specialist ,and if your skin is not evaluated before treatment ,to know what suits it ,you might have severe side effects and burns and scars ,so pay attention .

So Facials or (nettoyage )is good in moderation and after a thorough out examination of your dermatologist for your skin type and eligibility to do so ,it might have some mild side effects that are not permanent if done by an expert and these side effects are tolerable .

Be sure if you are allergic to any of the ingredients or the phenomena itself ,be aware of sun exposure when applying and stuck to the guidelines given by your expert .
