Is your teenager struggling with acne, oily skin, dry patches, or a mix of all three? It might be time to rethink their skincare routine. Teen facials are a fantastic way to restore the natural balance of young skin while tackling common issues like acne, clogged pores, and dryness. These treatments can help reduce bacteria, clear contaminants, and even lower the chances of acne scarring.
Curious about how a teen facial works?
During the appointment, an aesthetician will evaluate your teen’s skin, discuss their current skincare habits, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to their specific concerns. The goal is to revitalize their skin and address problem areas with gentle, effective care.
If you’ve been debating whether a teen facial is the right step for your child, here’s everything you need to know about this beneficial skincare treatment.
Why choose a teen facial?
Teenage years can be tough on skin. Hormonal changes often lead to increased oil production, acne, and sensitivity. Left untreated, these issues can worsen over time or even leave behind scarring. A teen facial isn’t just about pampering—it’s an essential part of learning how to care for their skin and maintain a healthy, glowing complexion.
Benefits of Teen Facials
Acne management: Facials can help control breakouts and reduce redness.
Skin education: Teens learn the importance of proper skincare, setting them up for a lifetime of healthy habits.
Confidence boost: Clearer skin often leads to improved self-esteem, especially during the challenging teenage years.
When to start teen facials:
Most teens can benefit from facials starting around age 13 or when they begin experiencing significant skin changes. However, every child is different, so consulting with a skincare professional can help determine the best time to start.
What Is included In a teen facial?
A teen facial is carefully designed with your specific teen in mind. The aesthetician will conduct a thorough skin analysis for your teen, during which they will evaluate your teen’s skin and discuss their skincare routine, lifestyle habits, products they use, and skin care concerns they have. They may also ask about skin issues that may run in families, like acne, rosacea, and eczema. They will then go over all of the skin care treatments they offer and make sure you understand what to expect from each one. Then, they will design a highly personalized skin treatment program for your teen. Most teen facials include one or more of these skin care treatments:
Deep Cleansing Treatments – Deep cleansing treatments can remove excess oil, bacteria, and other impurities that contribute to acne and other skin problems. This treatment can unclog pores and prepare the skin for further treatments.
Facial Masks—Facial masks can provide deep, targeted treatment for specific areas of concern or problems, such as dryness, oiliness, redness, inflammation, acne, and uneven skin tone or hyperpigmentation.
Mild extraction treatments – Extraction treatments can remove blackheads and whiteheads and reduce the risk of breakouts.
Exfoliating or Microdermabrasion Treatments – Exfoliating and microdermabrasion treatments get rid of old, dry skin and reveal healthier skin beneath. They can also reduce the appearance of acne scars and improve the texture and tone of skin.
Hydrafacial treatments – Hydrafacial treatments offer a deep cleanse that can extract dirt, bacteria, dead skin, and other contaminants that clog pores and contribute to acne. Hydrafacials can also improve skin tone and texture.
Chemical peels – Some chemical peels are gentle enough to be used on teen skin. We recommend a micro, mini, or superficial peel for most teenage patients. Chemical peels can reduce the appearance of acne scars, reduce hyperpigmentation and sun damage, and rejuvenate their complexion.
Tips for parents
Choose a licensed aesthetician who specializes in treating young skin.
Look for a spa or clinic that prioritizes gentle, non-invasive techniques.
Make it a learning experience - encourage your teen to ask questions and take an active role in their skincare journey.
Teen facials are more than a one-time fix—they’re a step toward establishing lifelong healthy skincare habits. By addressing their skin concerns early, you can help your teen feel more confident and take control of their skin’s health.
