Hello all! Are you familiar with facial? Big chance that most of you get facial regularly like once a month or more/ less. But it's not with me, I was so hesitant to get facial due to several reasons. For others, they might be hesitant because of the 'pinching' process. Yes, most facial requires pinching the acne; both whitehead and blackhead. It is painful and yes, left you with redness everywhere in your face right after.
In January, I visited ZAP and tried out their latest treatment; Photo Facial. Wow, sounds so sophisticated, right? So, photo facial uses several lights spectrum to stimulate collagen regeneration and repair our skin condition. Unlike conventional facial which only cleanse the outermost layer of the skin and do the extraction of whitehead and blackhead, ZAP photo facial prioritizes the treatment on epidermis of the skin. The benefits of this treatment are as follows:
- Reduce acne
- Reduce uneven skin color and dark spots
- Repair skin damage due to the sun exposure
- Reduce fine wrinkles
- Shrink pores
- Stimulate the regeneration of collagen thus reducing the signs of aging
- Helps lighten up skin color
There is no pain during the ZAP photo facial treatment. This treatment needs around 1 hour for each session. Moreover, the result is instant! Yes, right after the treatment, your face brightens up instantly. Though, the change can be seen after a single treatment, there is a need to repeat the treatment every month so that you will see more satisfying result. It is also advisable to add face peeling treatment 1 week after photo facial to accelerate the process.
Those are ZAP's claim, so what are my real experience?
This treatment is done by a medical doctor, ensuring the safety of the practice. But first, the therapist will help me cleansing my face (at that time I came with make up). So she prepared me for the cleansing by putting on the bandana first.
