Customized Peels

Forever Young Skin Peels come in many different types so that we can accommodate all skin types and needs. Below is a quick description of peel types and a menu of the peels that Forever Young Skin offers.

Superficial (lunch-time) - Using low strength agents like glycolic, lactic, and salicylic acids, we transform the face into soft, glowing skin, without any visible peeling.  These peels are designed to be done in 2-4 week intervals and over a few months time will elicit lasting changes in the skin.

Microdermabrasion - Used alone or in conjunction with a chemical peeling agent, microdermabrasion is a mechanical peeling agent which is suitable for acne, pigmentation, and sun-damaged skin.  In this manner, microdermabrasion serves as a superficial peel by itself and as a light peel when combined with a peeling agent.

Light - Using slightly stronger versions of same acids, we intensify the superficial peel for bigger and longer results.  Light peels are done on a monthly basis-Again with at home products to continue the process between peels. These light peels will usually elicit some light peeling for one to three days.

Moderate - For more extensive skin issues like widespread pigmentation or textural issues like scarring, you may need a moderate depth peel like The Green Peel® which will remove the epidermis and the upper layers of the dermis.  These peels will feel more uncomfortable although you will have a fan to help you through the few minutes of real heat. Afterwards -your skin will look red & swollen and feel warm and sore. Within a few days, you will form some scabs and scales upon your skin along with some dark membranous areas which will peel over the next 1-2 weeks.  But as you would expect the results from these peels are much bigger and last longer than lighter peels which you would have done more frequently to elicit gradual changes.

Facials

A facial is a cosmetic treatment of the face, involving a variety of skin treatments, grooming steps and deep cleansing of the face, often with a refreshing combination of steam, exfoliation, extraction, creams, lotions, masks, peels, and massage.

With so much focus being placed on more aggressive treatments-facials are getting little attention these days.  But, in actuality, as we exfoliate our skin with harsh chemicals and procedures-we need maintenance facials more than ever. Overall, our facials aim to replenish moisture and nutrients lost through sun, extreme temperatures, other skin procedures, and busy lives. Our facials, as with all of our services, are customized to the needs of your skin, but are always relaxing and induce the release of Oxytocin, a stress-busting hormone in our bodies. Forever Young Facials equate looking great with feeling well.  

The Benefits of Clay Masks

Clay masks can often clean out the pores around your nose that contribute to blackheads. You want to keep these pores as clean as possible so that they don't stretch. The larger the pores, the more room to trap oil.

Also, did you know...

Masks are not only for the face... a lot of skin is exposed when you wear a swimsuit and this skin can benefit as well. And that is especially true for your back.
