When I say royalty, what is the first thing that comes to your mind? You probably just thought about the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton. She is not only beautiful, but also flawless. And we are all curious to know her secrets. Kate has a stunning complexion and is what every girl dreams of achieving. According to quite a few bridal magazines, Kate opted for an oxygen facial for her wedding. Oxygen facial? Is it different than just walking around outside?
Oxygen 101
Well, to start, oxygen makes up less than 20% of the atmosphere. It is capable of combining with elements to build and maintain our bodies. There is a rule of 3—we can live 3 weeks without food, 3 days without water, and only 3 minutes without oxygen. In other words, without oxygen there would be no life on Earth.
Oxygen Facials
Besides breathing, oxygen is used to treat the sick and injured and for skincare. Many celebrities, including the Duchess herself, opt for an Oxygen Facial to maintain a beautiful and youthful glow because oxygen facials deliver nutrients deep into the skin through hyperbaric oxygen, which is oxygen under pressure.
How Does an Oxygen Facial work
When you arrive at our spa, the aesthetician will first exfoliate and cleanse your skin. Once this has been done, the aesthetician will take a combination of antioxidants and Hyaluronic Acids and spray it on your face. Hyaluronic Acid is the key ingredient in most oxygen facials because it is found naturally in our skin and it attracts and binds moisture. This ultimately will help your skin look firmer and more hydrated. Then, the mixture is delivered deep into your skin via a wand. The infusion process feels like a blast of cold air on your skin, but it is not painful or uncomfortable. After the aesthetician has made his or her way around your entire face with the wand, you will get one of the topical serums applied on top. The most popular serum is typically Atoxelene, which is a needle-free Botox alternative. But other powerful beauty enhancements include:
- Rejuvenate Treatment
- Opulence Treatment
- Clarity Treatment
- Intraceuticals+ Booster Treatment
To learn more about the enticing benefits of these treatments, talk to your aesthetician at Bellezza Spa about our Intraceutical Oxygen Facial with Infusion.
Other Benefits of Oxygen Facials
One basic requirement of skin health is the right amount of oxygen. Every single day we are exposed to damaging rays from the sun and pollution, which means the skin needs to repair itself. However, without the right amount of oxygen, we end up with wrinkles, dark patches, and dull skin.
Our skin regenerates itself, but shouldn’t we give it the extra push it needs? Yes, because oxygen helps enhance the healing power. For example, hyperbaric oxygen was first used to help treat burn victims and the severely wounded.Germ season is no match for oxygenated skin! Surprisingly, skin with proper oxygen will not typically allow bacteria and viruses to survive. Remember, bacteria causes acne, so now we understand why the Duchess is flawless.
Oxygen facials leave the skin smooth and plump because the oxygen is reaching a cellular level to promote collagen and elastin.
