Conquer Clear Skin Foes

The battle rages every day, in bathrooms around the world. Men, women, girls and boys wake up in the morning to come face to face with nothing short of billions of skin imperfections from acne to scars, blemishes and eczema, just to name a few. Eradicating these perpetual imperfections seems an uphill battle to many, but you have the tools to beat these skin foes.
As an aesthetician, you have a plethora of tools, trick and procedures created for the sole purpose of protecting and improving skin condition. When you meet with a client needing facial analysis and extraction, remember that they have probably tried several over-the-counter methods to fight their skin condition. They are probably feeling frustrated and exhausted by their inability to correct the issue on their own, and they may not be completely comfortable coming to a spa or having a facial from a stranger.
The most important thing you can do for your new client is ask questions about their personal skin situation. Be sure to get as much detail about their personal habits and skin care routines as you can and listen to them before making any assessments on your own. Reassure your client that a facial procedure can be very relaxing, can reduce headaches and stress in the head, neck and shoulders while drastically improving the look, feel and overall condition of their skin.
Explain to your client which extraction techniques will work for them based on their personal situation and describe the process in detail, leaving room for client questions or comments. Extraction techniques can be effective for even the most severe condition. Most client’s with acne are very sensitive to having their face touched, so be sure to describe how you will perform the extraction, what the intended result is and the possible issues that may arise during the procedure.
Taking the time to do an in-depth skin analysis and leaving room for client questions and concerns will not only help you achieve the best facial results for your client, it will allow your client as much information as possible to help them feel more at ease. It’s the little personal touches you add that can help even the most unwilling clients enjoy a relaxing spa experience.
