You might be aware of facials. But, do you know that the facials offered at your spa or parlour vary from ones that take place at your dermatologist? Facials at your dermatologist are known as medi-facial. Facials in which advanced technology, researched protocols, and science-based ingredients are used to provide a proper treatment to your face said by Dr. Swati Tripathi. Medi-facial focusses towards specific ailments and conditions, like acne, acne scarring, spots, sun damage, dehydration, and also sensitive skin. These are highly effective as compared to generic facials. Some popular treatments that fall under medi-facials are: Water jet technology exfoliation, Hydradermabrasion, Laser facials and steam cell facials. Medi-facials have minimal downtime and also do not have any side effects. They tend to improve the skin tone and texture, and immediately give a brighter-looking skin which keeps looking better.
