How does a beauty therapist adjust a facial to suit different skin types?
i have fair dry skin and i also have broken capillaries over my cheeks and friends and family have advised on getting a facial. however what they described e.g steaming, massage, and the exfoliation, would irritate my skin to the point of coming out bright red and it lasting like that for three days as i'm quite sensitive! They've said a facial is individual depending on skin type i'd just like to know how it would differ for all the different skin types before i book one and come out looking like a tomato! please help

Best Answer – Chosen by Voters They do work, its the different products in the products, i would recommend having one every 6 weeks. They also have special cover up for broken capillaries and it works really well. Ask your beauty therapist and she will probably sell you some. Hope this helps. Source(s): Im a beauty therapist
Personally i don't think they can cater the treatment to individual. The procedure are standard: extracting, massage, exfoliating, mask…. They only have different products for different skin type (just as any counter brand does). They then use all the steps on you and the product that is supposed to be suitable. However, it is hard to say there's no consequence right? Even with popular counter brands, products for sensitive skins still cause individuals irritation. I went to facial just because i'm too lazy to do all the steps on my own on regular basis and I want to be pampered. But i did have experience of skin irritation and when I questioned the beautician, they said they know best, but my skin shows otherwise. I suggest that you go for consultation, ask to try on the product on your jaw, then go for trial session. If it is ok then sign up, if it is not then close your ears and walk.
Treatments can be altered from person to person, for example two different masks can be used on differenet areas of the face like if you have dry patches on your cheeks and an oily T-zone. Your therapist can tell you more when she sees your skin in person.In realtion to your broken capillaries, a facial may not be possible for you. Broken capillaries are classed as a contra-indication which are things that would prevent your therapist from doing a treatment. My best advise is to go to a therapist and get her opinion of your skin beforehand. A therapist will never do anything to your skin that will make a problem worse. If you were to get a facial, to cover up the redness that you would experience with your dry skin, I would advise you to get hold of a green concealer. It sounds weird but they are especially for covering up redness of the skin as the green counterracts the red.I hope I helped a little bit. Source(s): I'm a training beauty therapist
