introducing the smooth & sculpt facial

May 31

It’s here, this treatment is a blend of my favorite modalities! The Neolifting facial sculpting and modeling technique, manual lymphatic drainage, and connective tissue massage. This trifecta comes together to smooth fine lines and wrinkles, lift, and sculpt and melt tension in the muscles of the face, leading to firmer skin and a more lifted appearance.

A “one-size-fits-all” approach is avoided as each massage is customized to your specific skin concerns, no one receives the “same” facial massage.

What is the smooth and sculpt facial?

A natural facelift effect is achieved by toning, strengthening and/or relaxing the main facial muscles, smoothing the fascia, targeting certain bone structures of the skull and improving blood supply to the tissues. Intraoral massage immediately plumps fine lines and wrinkles around the lips and relaxes the jaw, manual lymphatic drainage reduces puffiness. Finished with a soothing cryotherapy cold stone treatment, this is the BEST facial massage you’ve ever had!

What's included in this facial?

A thorough deep cleanse, detailed skin analysis of your areas of concern and how we will best address them through treatment, a blend of multi faceted European facial massage techniques, cryotherapy and finishing with serums + hydration products best suited to your skin.

How does this improve my skin’s health:

We propel the internal resources of the body for natural rejuvenation and recovery. This treatment improves blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, increases the microcirculation in the subcutaneous adipose tissue, normalizes cellular respiration, activates metabolism and tissue nourishment improving the skin trophic. Muscles come back to their healthy tone, facial posture improves and skin becomes smooth, returning the face to its natural shape.

What are the benefits of the smooth & sculpt facial?

Because this facial is completely customized to your skins needs and it is recommended that a minimum of six sessions to see the most effective results, there are 7 incredible benefits that can be supported by this facial!

The muscles of the face are getting trained by the skillful hands of your therapist. We have to remember we can’t exercise our face the same way we exercise our body - that’s why having a trained therapist do it for you offers the maximum benefits with minimum efforts. As a result, muscles acquire the correct tone and resist gravitational effects, and you get off the massage bed rested and glowing!
This is all about deeply relaxing, or toning the facial muscles as appropriate, to smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while giving you full control over your facial expressions!
This service aids in addressing and eliminating psycho-emotional blocks and helps you cope with stress. During the session, stagnations in the facial muscles are eliminated, supporting in uplifting your mood.
Back in 2007, the famous French doctor and plastic surgeon Claude LeLouran proved that it is the residual muscle tension that plays the role of one of the main reasons for the structural aging of the face.
If we consider the fact that facial muscles have tendency towards accumulating tension after experiencing charged emotions due to their increased sensitivity to acetylcholine, the main neurotransmitter of the PNS that contracts smooth muscles, it becomes clear that to return the muscle tone to normal, we need to focus more on relaxing them and addressing the hyper tone. The neolifting technique focuses on slow, mindful, deeply relaxing movements to give you effective results, restoring your face.
Our skin does not exist on its own. Its the most superficial organ of all. Once we address the underlying issues with the muscles and bones of the skull and improve lymphatics, the skin will respond automatically.
Thanks to improved oxygenation, blood circulation, tissue nourishment, and elimination of toxins. This improves muscle tone, and the facial skin becomes smooth and supple, wrinkles and age-related changes melt away. Your skin feels clearer and acquires that lil-from-within glow naturally!
Your session begins with careful observation of three sculptural lines - jawline, cheek line, and eye line. Noting any asymmetry and imbalances, the treatment will be aiming to balance out those three lines to “mold” the face within the boundaries of your natural skin structure. The end result will be a happier, and younger you - the real you rather than some unattainable standard we see in the media.
This massage triggers metabolic processes not only in the skin and tissues of the face but in the whole body.
Lymphatic drainage supports the excretion of harmful foreign substances and toxins more efficiently from the body - make sure to drink plenty of water to help your body cleanse itself.

How many sessions do I need?

Neolifting is not a quick fix treatment. Although visible results can be achieved right from the first session, a systematic approach is recommended to create a long- lasting effect. Just as you cannot expect to get in shape from one visit to the gym, you should not have exaggerated expectations from having one treatment. Due to its holistic approach and time required for the body to integrate the changes, neo lifting gives the best results with an initial series of six followed by either weekly or monthly sessions depending on your goals.

Contraindications:

This treatment is heavily massage focused, if you are experiencing acne, extreme skin sensitivity, rosacea or psoriasis flare, it’s best to wait until those conditions have been treated for best results.

What one client had to say about her experience:

“I was blessed to be able to experience 6 weekly smooth and sculpt facials from Ashley. I knew that it was going to be incredible because, well, Ashley is incredible. But OH MY GOD this was truly amazing. My skin was noticeably lifted and tighter after each session and had lasting results. My skin glowed. For someone really who is trying not to go the Botox route, this facial is for you. Also something to note- I am someone who is not easily relaxed and typically I talk throughout my facials. HOWEVER- during each session I passed out and had no idea what universe I was in when we were done. I was literally transported to pure relaxation, rejuvenation and bliss. I seriously cannot recommend this treatment enough. Don’t walk…RUN to your next appointment with Ashley, she’s a wizard.”
