Swap Needles for Kneading

Good afternoon! Esthetician Ashley here to inform you of the benefits of massage for your SKIN ! As the body 
ages, the skin becomes thin and delicate. Over time, the body produces less collagen, elastin, sweat, oil and glycosaminoglycans, all of which help keep the skin supple and healthy. The thick outer layers of the skin also slowly wear away, making the skin less resilient to friction and damage. Underneath this thin outer layer of skin lies a thicker layer known as the dermis. As the production of collagen and elastin decreases, the fibers in this layer become loose, brittle and clumped together. As a result, the skin begins to sag and wrinkle.

Like the rest of your body, your face has many muscles, and like your shoulders or back, it gets tight and hold on to stress.   

Face massage brings circulation to the skin, but also encourages the production of hyrdrating oils.



Combining the massage with gentle facial exercises can also help improve muscle tone in the delicate facial muscles. This improved muscle tone prevents sagging and wrinkles around the chin, If your wrinkles have already developed, facial massages will never return your skin to its previous condition, but it may improve the texture slightly and may help to prevent the appearance and development of additional wrinkles.

By relaxing muscles and connective tissue, massaging the face softens expression-induced lines around your 
eyes, lips and brows, helps expel acne-causing toxins and de-puffs and brightens the eye area.
All facials include a neck, shoulder and face massage throughout a series of penetrating masks.

Now you know a facial is not only clarifying and rejuvenating for your skin, but the massage included is relaxing and is continuing to target your skin concerns. Are you thinking "sign me up!" yet? Great! Call us at Le Reve to book your special facial. See you at the spa :)
