Best Places to Get a Facial in Waco

0

During the last couple of months I did some “research” to find the BEST facials offered in Waco.

Taking excellent care of our skin has become a normal part of daily routines.  Just like brushing our teeth and sustaining proper hygiene, washing our face and using products to best suit our skin types have become a standard part of healthy living.  

Skincare products are NOT a one size fits all.  It is essential to know your skin type in order to treat it gently and effectively.  Years ago, I thought I was a very knowledgeable consumer, but I was still choosing products that were still too harsh on my skin.  Once I became a business owner (for seven years) in the skincare industry, I realized how important it is to receive a consultation from a trained professional.  Even though I knew a lot about skincare, I needed a certified expert to help me get back on track.   It took a licensed aesthetician to assess my skin, and inform me I was exfoliating too much and with the wrong products. 

As women our skin changes over time due to hormones, pregnancy, medical treatments, and various issues.  

As these changes occur, it is important to receive updated skincare consultations. The BEST way to do this is to go and get regular facials, which can also target issues such as acne, dryness, aging, rosacea, and other issues.  WACO has some great Spa’s that offer an array of skincare services that address all of these concerns.  Thanks to skincare research, there continue to be a growing number of quality treatments and services at more affordable price. If receiving regular facials or treatments do not fit in your budget or busy schedule, do them from time to time where you can assess your skin as you age, or as changes occur. 

The following WACO SPA’S are bringing in some of the newest services and treatments at a price we can actually afford, and these are the results I found.    

 

FACELOGIC DAY SPA

Facelogic is a day spa that specializes in Premier Facials at an affordable price, 

and offers an array of facials and skincare services that maintain healthy skin. 

New Product Exclusive to Facelogic in the Waco area:

I tried it, LOVED it, and you can see the RESULTS below.

Dermasound Elite by GlyMed Plus: a state-of-the-art ultrasonic treatment that uses distilled water and low frequency soundwaves to improve skin conditions.  The Dermasound Elite firms and tightens the skin. This treatment improves issues such as rosacea, acne, psoriasis, and pigmentation, as well as reduces wrinkles, hydrates, minimizes pores, and smooths skin texture. It repairs skin cells and extracts the waste from the cells. This is a treatment that offers results, but that also remains affordable.

My Skin Issues:

  • Rosacea and redness on my cheeks and around my nose – I have used special creams given to me by the dermatologist that did not work.
  • Elasticity – I also noticed that due to a certain age, the skin on my jaw line was not as tight as it once was, and selfies were getting a little scary.
  • Dryness, Fine Lines, Pigmentation

When I disucssed my problem areas with the Licensed Aestheticians at Facelogic  they highly recommended this new treatment.  I received three Dermasound Elite treatments, and expected it to improve one or two of the issues.  I was AMAZED how this technology improved all of my skin issues. 

The following pictures are raw photos taken from my iPhone.  The pictures are NOT edited in any way, and I did NOT use a filter.  These pics are NOT THE MOST FLATTERING, but it is important to show real results without professional editing in order to show the that the improvements on my skin are VERY noticeable.

My Before & After Pics:

Pics were taken at different angles in order to show redness and overall improvement.  The Rosacea and redness is very evident on my cheeks and around my nose.

My Results:

Notice the improvement and decrease of redness on my cheeks and around my nose. The color of my face is also noticeably brighter.  This visible difference is just moments after the facial ended. As the day pogressed the improvements on my skin continued to be even more noticeable. 

  1. My skin INSTANTLY felt firmer – The increased firmness around my mouth and on my jawline was visible. After receiving this treatment I saw and felt a lift in my skin. I could also see and feel the difference around my eyes, and on my forehead.
  2. Reduced Redness – My skin tone was visibly improved and the redness on my cheeks and around my nose were almost gone.
  3. Hydration – My skin felt soft, dewy, and smooth.
