Put a smile on your face

Your face is your most recognizable feature. You want it to stay looking its best. Through the years, we share so many memories with our friends and family. Through the good times and bad, our face is there for all the smiles, laughs, and tears. While we will cherish the memories made over the years, we do not cherish the fine lines and wrinkles brought on by the repetitive muscle movements of the face during smiling, laughing, or frowning.

Visiting a professional med spa in the Austin, Texas area is your key to a more vibrant and young looking face. A med spa offers the typical treatments you might expect from a day of pampering, and a whole lot more. A med spa is under the supervision of a licensed health care professional and can offer more advanced techniques for the care of your skin. Treatments such as Botox, advanced facial techniques, laser treatments, microdermabrasion, and dermal filler injections are a few of the specialty choices.

Botox has many benefits that can be utilized in obtaining your ideal look. Once administered, it causes the muscles to relax and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Botox works best on dynamic wrinkles, meaning those that are caused by muscle movement. These go by many names, but all can be remedied with Botox treatments. Crow’s feet are a common culprit, as well as the corners of the mouth, otherwise known as frown lines. Botox will also help with the forehead furrow caused by worrying, and the so-called “bunny lines” above the nose created by crinkling your nose. Once you have taken care of those pesky wrinkles, you can also improve the overall glow and appearance of your skin with a facial.

Facials are a great way to revitalize your skin and can also be a great relaxing treat. First your skin is thoroughly cleansed and examined by an esthetician. It is then exfoliated and cleared of unwanted oils and dead skin cells, followed by a relaxing facial massage. There are several options available when it comes to facials in Austin. You can choose to have an Intraceuticals O2 Facial, otherwise known as an oxygen facial. This type of facial is great for treating dry skin, sun damage, and acne. The process uses oxygen to deliver amino peptides, nano-hydraters, and antioxidants directly into the skin. It leaves the skin well hydrated and looking instantly younger. Another option is a dermaplane facial. This is a wonderful treatment to get rid of that annoying “peach fuzz” as well as those with acne scarring. It is perfectly paired with the O2 treatment. All facials are ended with a consultation where advice is given to continue healthy treatment of your skin at home.

Using the right makeup after a facial treatment is key to keeping your skin healthy and getting the most from the treatment. Glo Minerals in Austin TX are a fantastic line of products that offer UV protection, high pigment minerals, and pharmaceutical grade antioxidants. With so many options to help you look your best in Austin, there will surely be a combination right for you that will put a smile on your face.
