Acne
Acne is a skin condition characterized by the presence of pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. Recommended spa treatments include facials with salicylic acid, gentle exfoliation, and blue LED light therapy.
Rosacea
Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that causes redness and visible blood vessels in the face. Spa treatments include gentle cleansing, laser therapy, and anti-inflammatory moisturizers.
Psoriasis
Psoriasis is an autoimmune disorder resulting in the rapid buildup of skin cells, leading to scaling on the skin's surface. Spa treatments include oatmeal baths, aloe vera applications, and Dead Sea salt scrubs.
Eczema
Eczema, or atopic dermatitis, causes the skin to become inflamed or irritated. Spa treatments recommended are hydration-focused facials, colloidal oatmeal masks, and gentle, fragrance-free products.
Dry Skin
Dry skin is characterized by a lack of moisture, leading to a tight and flaky appearance. Spa treatments include deep moisturizing facials, hydrating serums, and gentle exfoliation.
Oily Skin
Oily skin is marked by the overproduction of sebum, making the skin appear shiny and prone to acne. Spa treatments include clay masks, oil-free hydration, and regular exfoliation.
Sunburn
Sunburn is the result of excessive UV radiation exposure, causing skin redness and pain. Spa treatments focus on cooling the skin, applying aloe vera gel, and using anti-inflammatory products.
Age Spots
Age spots are small, dark areas on the skin that occur due to sun exposure over time. Spa treatments include lightening facials, laser therapy, and topical vitamin C applications.
Cellulite
Cellulite appears as dimpled, lumpy flesh primarily on thighs and buttocks, resulting from fat pushing through connective tissue. Spa treatments include massage therapy, cellulite reduction wraps, and radiofrequency treatments.
Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation is the darkening of an area of the skin caused by an excess of melanin. Recommended spa treatments include chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and topical skin lighteners.
Wrinkles
Wrinkles are creases, folds, or ridges in the skin that naturally appear as people get older. Spa treatments to combat wrinkles include anti-aging facials, collagen masks, and retinoid creams.
Stretch Marks
Stretch marks are lines or streaks on the skin, typically from pregnancy or weight changes. Spa treatments effective for stretch marks include microdermabrasion, laser therapy, and rich hydrating wraps.
