The Salt Facial Treatment Three-Step Process
Now, let's break down the Salt Facial's three-step process, which works synergistically to transform your skin from dull to elevated.
Step One: Restore through Exfoliation
The salt facial begins with a gentle exfoliation using a proprietary blend of pure microfine, natural sea salt. The machine used is an exfoliating device that delicately, yet efficiently, removes the outermost top layer of the skin (known as the stratum corneum).Â
It distinguishes itself from other microdermabrasion machines by employing a closed-loop pressure system during the salt facial procedure, eliminating the need for suction. This unique feature enhances safety compared to other technologies.
This helps to slough away dead skin cells, revealing a smoother, more radiant complexion beneath.

Step Two: Replenish through Ultrasound
After the skin exfoliation, a specialized ultrasound technology will be used to deliver essential (more like vital) nutrients, nourishing antioxidants, and hyaluronic acid back into the skin, promoting hydration and enhancing elasticity for a youthful appearance.
The ultrasound process will open up your cell's permeability, enabling deeper absorption of hydration and skincare nutrients into the skin tissue. This step fosters skin replenishment, leading to improved texture and stimulating the production of collagen, resulting in tighter, firmer skin
Step Three: Rejuvenate through LED Light Therapy
The last step in the salt facial treatment, LED light therapy.
This LED light therapy is employed, which is great because it can be tailored to your skin type. The blue light targets inflammation and bacteria, while red light stimulates collagen production, promotes healing, and boosts circulation.
This segment is exceptionally relaxing, so be sure to savor the experience.

The Results of Salt Facial
After just one treatment, you can expect to see immediate improvements in your skin's texture, tone, and overall luminosity.
After just one treatment, the sheer softness of your skin alone might lead to an addiction. With regular sessions, the results become even more pronounced over time.Â
This treatment is ideal before important events when you aim to appear and feel your finest. Moreover, it's available year-round, irrespective of the season.
How Long Do the Benefits of the Salt Facial Results Last?
We’re sad to reveal that the salt facial benefits won't last forever. Regular sessions every four to six weeks are encouraged to sustain the fresh and glowing appearance of your skin. This routine ensures the persistence of treatment outcomes and the ongoing enhancement of skin health and appearance.

Hydra Facials focus on hydrating and nourishing the skin using a combination of water-based serums, while Salt Facials harness the power of sea salt for exfoliation and rejuvenation.
