BEST FACIALS
CHICAGO, IL

Facials help to renew skin cells by circulating the blood flow under the skin, which then can decrease puffiness and fluid build up that comes from our lymphatic system. Good circulation is important in that it brings oxygen, proteins and nutrition to the skin, while ridding our skin of toxins.

Once per month is also the ideal time frame because our skin cell turnover cycle is 28 days long, explains Marmur. So getting a professional facial more than once a month could be irritating to the skin.
