Benefits of Corrective Facial Treatments
The word “corrective” can make us turn and run in the opposite direction. That reaction may date back to childhood when we were corrected for doing something wrong.
From a skin care perspective, corrective treatments can help reverse signs of aging caused by sun exposure and pollutants, as well as correcting more specific skin care issues related to acne and scarring.
These treatments are safe and gentle—typically you will experience no interruptions to your lifestyle, and you’ll see impressive results!
Brighten and even pigmentation. Corrective treatments help to exfoliate areas of the hands or face with excess pigmentation, or “age spots,” which occur naturally from sun exposure or hormonal changes—especially those during pregnancy. With continued care at home , you will see visible improvement and an even, brightened complexion.
Reduce acne breakouts, scars and blackheads. Corrective treatments gently remove dead skin cells, unclog pores and reduce the production of excess oil. The treatment also helps reduce the appearance of scarring. This results in a clearer complexion without the use of harsh chemicals that can dry the skin and exacerbate acne.

Soften fine lines and wrinkles. Exfoliation during the corrective treatment helps to remove surface lines on the face and hands. This reveals newer, more supple looking skin and helps to generate production of new skin cells.
Improve dry or dehydrated skin. Corrective treatments encourage cell growth and production of collagen, which increases moisture levels in the skin. This helps reveal a glowing layer of skin, producing a softer, more youthful appearance.
With a series of up to six Corrective Facial Treatments, your skin will look and feel softer, smoother, and more radiant. With each treatment, you should see incremental gains in the overall appearance of the skin.
