New Year New You: Transformative Spa Treatments

It's the New Year which means new changes, new experiences, and new encounters to come. As we reflect on the past year and check items off our bucket list, we start to think of things like "What do I want to accomplish this year?" "Find a new job?" "Change my hair color?" Or finally, "Travel to the destination of my dreams?" The possibilities are endless!

But before you decide on your new year's resolutions, we can help put your best face forward to tackle anything that comes your way! Here are some spa treatments to transform your look and embrace the exciting new year.

 

Microblading

Microblading is our newest service at Le Petit Spa and we're more than excited to talk more about it in the upcoming months!

Your eyebrows help frame your face they are one of the features that people notice first. But if you were not blessed with fully grown eyebrows or if over plucking your eyebrows has done permanent damage, then Microblading is for you!

Microblading gives you semi-permanent eyebrows by filling in sparse areas with hair-like strokes. The procedure helps to reconstruct your eyebrows by filling in sparse areas and giving you the look of fully groomed eyebrows.

A certified and trained professional uses tiny needles in the form of a blade or a pen-like tool to deposit pigment in the skin. Think of it as a tattoo for your eyebrows. The only difference is that microblading is semi-permanent. It will fade away after a certain amount of time, which means regular appointments are necessary if you want to maintain your thick, full eyebrows. With microblading, you don't have to worry about filling in your eyebrows every morning because microblading does the job for you.

 

Lifting And Firming Facial

A facial does many wonders for the skin. It promotes anti-aging, can increase your skin's level of hydration, clears dirt and impurities, and minimizes pores and other imperfections. However, nowadays microcurrent technology is becoming a popular addition to facials. It helps to lift and firm the skin, giving you the temporary appearance of a facelift or botox, without the injections.

A Galvanic machine produces the microcurrent and is guided by the facial specialist on areas of the face that need it the most such as the forehead, eye contour area, jawline, and cheekbones. The microcurrent stimulates the muscles in the skin, causing the skin to lift and appear plump and youthful. This is a popular treatment among mature women who are looking to look refreshed and youthful. The sensation is tingly but not painful at all. You may feel discomfort during and after the facial, but it will disappear in a few hours.

Microcurrent technology also helps to penetrate product deeper and faster into the skin. This way the skin is able to fully absorb the essential ingredients and retain them for a longer period of time. After one treatment of the microcurrent technology, you should feel like your skin is firm and refreshed.

 

Anti-Aging Eye Treatment

As we run our daily lives, we forget to take care of our eyes. Lack of sleep due to late shifts, an unbalanced diet, or personal and work-related stress all contributes to dark circles, puffiness, and fatigue around your eyes.

To make sure that your eyes get the love they need, we recommend an anti-aging eye treatment after a facial. This includes a massage around the eye contour area to help stimulate the blood around the eyes and decrease puffiness and fatigue. An eye mask with a cooling serum is then placed around the eyes so the skin can absorb the anti-aging and detoxifying active ingredients. Your eyes can appear more bright and awake as soon as you step out of the treatment room.

 

Microdermabrasion

If you are looking for a natural glow to your skin, microdermabrasion and peels are something you'll love and both treatments can work harmoniously as a series to reveal clear and radiant skin.

Microdermabrasion is a simple, non-invasive procedure that takes away the dull top layer of your skin, revealing the healthier skin beneath. Even after the first treatment, you should notice a difference in your skin. It may feel softer, or look youthful and refreshed.
Besides making you feel great about your skin, microdermabrasion can have several other benefits:

  • Temporary anti-aging effects. Microdermabrasion can help minimize the appearance the signs of early aging like fine lines, dark spots, and an uneven skin texture. The procedure can also minimize the appearance of fine lines by stimulating collagen production and restoring moisture to dry and damaged skin.
  • Clean pores. Deep exfoliation combined with suction power can unclog your pores and make them appear smaller. As we age, our pores get larger which makes the skin appear rough, dull and it's more difficult to apply makeup products. Microdermabrasion can help restore the youthful texture of your skin by tightening your pores.
  • A short recovery time. Microdermabrasion can be done in as little as 20 minutes while the recovery time is less than 24 hours. You may experience some pink skin for a short period of time.
  • Improved skin tone. If you have sun spots or acne scars, microdermabrasion can help fade these marks over time. Getting regular microdermabrasion treatments will maximize the potential results for your skin.
  • Ideal for all skin types. This treatment is appropriate for many skin types and conditions especially acne-prone skin caused by excess oil as microdermabrasion can help reduce oil production. But whether you're in your 20s, 50s or beyond, microdermabrasion is a good option.

 

Peel

A chemical peel is a procedure that gently exfoliates the top layer of your skin using a safe but slightly acidic substance. It is effective in removing dead skin cells, fine lines, small scars, freckles, and general skin imperfections. This procedure comes in different degrees of strength depending on what your skin needs. Generally, the stronger the chemical peel, the more drastic the change will be. And therefore the longer the recovery time will take.

For example, if your skin needs minor touch-ups, you can get the lunchtime peel. If you are experiencing severe acne scars and sun damage, however, a stronger peel would be better. The medium or deep peel can help reverse the damage to your skin. Depending on which degree of peel you choose, mild acids require several treatments to get noticeable results as opposed to stronger acids which may only need to be done 4 times a year.

Chemical peels can help boost the amount of collagen and generate cellular renewal in your skin to keep it looking youthful. Our most popular Microdermabrasion and Peel Series comes with two 20-minute microdermabrasion treatments and two 20-minute peel treatments over a span of eight weeks. This is an excellent treatment for those who have dry and neglected skin. It is also an excellent treatment process to get when you are preparing for a special occasion. 

 

LHE Skin Rejuvenation

As we age, collagen decreases and becomes less elastic, causing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Our skin texture becomes less smooth and lacks that youthful glow. An alternative to minimize this concern aside from microdermabrasion and peels is LHE Skin Rejuvenation treatment. This procedure is one of the most advanced skin rejuvenation solutions and it is safe, cost-effective and fast. Noticeable results can be seen as early as the second treatment.

LHE Skin Rejuvenation uses a combination of light and heat energy at low fluences to target the inner layers of the skin. The natural fusion of light and heat energy increases the overall effectiveness of the procedure and speeds up the healing process. LHE Skin Rejuvenation also accelerates blood circulation, allowing better absorption of anti-aging serums and creams.

If you are looking to stimulate healthy growth for your skin, LHE is a possible option. It stimulates collagen production, replacing the old collagen with new collagen in the inner layer of the skin. As new collagen rebuilds, skin tone can improve, simultaneously the appearance fine lines and wrinkles minimize as well.
