It takes more than just daily cleansing and moisturizing to care for your skin. Treatments such as an exfoliating and lightening facial, not only refresh your complexion, but it also addresses uneven skin tone. Plus, this facial is designed to remove dead skin cells, brighten dull areas, and restore a healthy, radiant glow.

How an Exfoliating and Lightening Facial Works

An exfoliating and lightening facial is a skin treatment that uses physical or chemical methods to remove dead skin cells. Next, brightening agents are applied like Vitamin C to promote cell turnover. This process improves uneven skin tone, texture, for a brighter, radiant complexion.

Here’s what happens during the facial:

1. Deep exfoliation

First, an exfoliating and lightening facial consist of gently removing the buildup of dead skin cells. At DaVida Medical & Aesthetics, we use professional-grade exfoliants, such as fruit enzymes, mild acids, or scrubs. The process of exfoliation unclog pores, smooths rough texture, and allows your skin to better absorb serums and moisturizers.

2. Brightening the skin

After the surface layer is renewed, we apply brightening agents to target uneven skin ton, dark spots, and hyperpigmentation. These ingredients generally include vitamin C, licorice extract, kojic acid, or arbutin, known for their ability to enhance radiance and reduce discoloration.

3. Hydration and nourishment

Once the exfoliation and lightening treatments are processed, the skin is infused with hydration. Moisturizers, masks, and serums loaded with hyaluronic acid and antioxidants help replenish and calm the skin, leaving it refreshed and plump.

4. Protection and glow

The final step usually includes applying sunscreen to shield the skin from UV rays, which can cause further pigmentation issues. After the facial, you’ll notice a brighter, smoother complexion with a healthy glow.
