The decongesting facial can help to clear out clogged sebum and eliminate blackheads. A decongesting facial can also help to prevent further skin breakouts, but should never be carried out on an active blemish, as this could cause further infection, and inflammation and has the potential to spread the bacteria.

Lymphatic Massage Facial
When receiving a lymphatic massage facial, certain areas on your face will be kneaded to remove strain and puffiness. The massage is great because it motivates and creates momentum for lymphatic drainage to help your body detox and renew. Fluid is moved out of your tissues into your lymph nodes where bacteria and viruses are destroyed. This facial also stimulates your immune system and increases the circulation of white blood cells.
Acupuncture Facial
With the acupuncture facial, anywhere between 40 and 70 tiny and painless needles are inserted into your face. The needles puncture the skin and create wounds within its threshold called microtraumas. Your body senses the wounds and will then proceed to repair these microtraumas, helping to stimulate healing in other areas of the face. This evens the completion out and gives your skin a youthful glow. The positive microtraumas stimulate the production of collagen which helps to improve elasticity and therefore minimises fine lines and wrinkles.
