Targeted Facial Treatments
The Tweak to Chic Difference
Many factors need to be considered when performing a facial treatment. There are numerous products, ingredients, modalities and techniques that will trigger a cellular response within the skin, some good, some bad and because everybody is different, not all of these procedures may be suitable for you personally.
Then there is your preference for instance, some people may simply want to relax in silence with hot towels soaked in essential oils, steam and a facial massage, whilst others may desire a more targeted approach with lots of active ingredients information and detailed programs to follow at home. Some people may not know what they want and others may want the lot.
That is why I feel it is important to have a holistic approach to these complex treatments and a good understanding of the copious components which may influence your comfort and the activity of your skin. For example:
- The environment we live in.
- The quality of the ingredients in the skincare
- The delivery systems of the active ingredients
- Clinical testing of the modalities
- Our lifestyles
- Age
- Hormonal fluctuations & imbalances
- Stress
- Our gut health and microbiome.
- Nutrition.
- Medications
- Genetics
- The products we use at home
That is why a facial at Tweak to Chic is so much more than whacking a few masks on and leaving you in a dark room. Why it is important to implement a detailed consultation and have at hand fantastic devices, techniques and products capable of treating & managing the skin on a cellular level without delivering nasty ingredients or wrecking havoc with the delicate balance of the skin’s essential functions.
The Importance of the Right Products
It took me a long time to choose the right skincare range to work with at Tweak to Chic. Although it seems there are a multitude of choices, there are so many products companies that that simply did not fit my criteria, my ethics or tick every box. After hours upon hours of sifting through ingredient listings, I’m happy to introduce to you, IMAGE Skincare.
I’ve had years of experience working with various highly renowned clinical ranges in Australia but none of them compared to the results I’ve experienced with IMAGE. I had a huge success implementing these products in my skin clinic in Sydney where my customers and I were blown away with the visible changes & improvements to their skin.
From enzyme peels to high-level AHA/BHA exfoliators and organic botanical infusions, IMAGE Skincare has a treatment to suit your specific skin type whist ensuring each ingredient is of the highest quality and sourced & manufactured ethically and responsibly.
