Lymphatic Drainage Detox

Lymphatic drainage massage involves gentle, therapeutic techniques aimed at supporting the body’s lymphatic system. Using light pressure and rhythmic strokes, therapists focus on stimulating lymph nodes in areas like the armpits, neck, and groin.

This type of massage offers a range of benefits. It is particularly useful for reducing swelling and puffiness in individuals with sedentary lifestyles. It also aids in treating respiratory issues and can complement cellulite treatments. Moreover, it supports healing from injuries such as scar tissues, sprains, fractures, and torn ligaments.

Additionally, lymphatic drainage addresses various health concerns including skin conditions like acne, symptoms of arthritis and sinusitis, and discomfort during pregnancy such as sore nipples, engorgement, poor circulation, and water retention.

Overall, lymphatic drainage massage is a gentle and effective therapy that promotes detoxification, boosts immune function, and contributes to overall well-being.

Who are peels for?

Chemical peels are for everyone. Whether your skin is dry, oily, combination or even sensitive, there is a chemical peel treatment that will work for you.

What do peels improve?

Chemical peels are safe and effective in improving and preventing most skin conditions:

  • Aging
  • Acne
  • Discoloration
  • Sensitive skin/rosacea

Why do I need a peel?

Our skin naturally exfoliates, gently shedding dead skin cells so subtly that most of us don’t even notice. However, as we age, this process tends to slow, resulting in a dull complexion.

How do peels work?

Chemical peels speed up the exfoliation process, encouraging cell turnover that leaves the skin looking fresh and healthy. The result is exfoliation after a treatment, often seen in the form of flaking that lasts a couple days. Ingredients in the peel solution are also working to create new cells that function properly, not only visibly improving the skin, but correcting from within.

The PCA SKIN peel difference

When do I get a peel?

Chemical peels are usually recommended once a month, paralleling the skin’s natural 28 day cell turnover process for the best results. Depending on your skin concern your aesthetician may recommend them more or less frequently. PCA SKIN chemical peels have little to no downtime, allowing for treatments that won’t disrupt your schedule.

What are the benefits of a peel?

Chemical peels have a large number of benefits, some that can be noticed, and some that subtly occur under the surface of the skin.

  • Reduced fine lines and wrinkles
  • Controlled oil production and fewer breakouts
  • Diminished discoloration and a more even skin tone
  • Reduced inflammatory response
  • Increased cell turnover process
  • Overall brightened skin tone
  • Softer, smoother skin

Benefits

This therapy is beneficial for people who follow an inactive lifestyle and experience the problem of swelling and puffiness. It has also been reported that this therapy is an effective way of treating people with dysfunctional respiratory problems and also can be an alternative to other medical treatments of cellulite. Individuals who have gone through accidents are also recommended to get this massage done since it helps heal the scar tissues, sprains, fractures, as well as torn ligaments.

Skin problems, like acne, and illnesses, including arthritis and sinusitis, may also be completely treated with this therapy. It is also said to be beneficial for women who face problems during pregnancy like sore nipples, fissures, engorgement, poor circulation and water retention issues.
