What is a Back Facial?

When you think of skincare, you likely think of the skin on the face. However, the skin on the rest of the body is also important to your confidence, comfort, and overall health. The skin on the back, in particular, can be sensitive. For many people, the back is prone to acne breakouts, which can be tricky to manage. 

Back facials are a way to keep the skin on your back healthy, soft, and clear. This aesthetic treatment is loved by many for its ability to give the skin a soft, supple feel while improving acne and other skin concerns. 

What Does a Back Facial Involve?

A back facial is just like a traditional facial, but it’s performed on the back instead of the face. Usually, your esthetician will start by steaming the skin, which opens up the pores and provides powerful relaxation. 

After the skin has been steamed, it’s thoroughly cleansed to remove oils, dirt, and impurities. At this point, your aesthetician can gently exfoliate the skin on the back to get rid of the outer layer of skin cells. As these dead, dull skin cells are removed, new, healthy skin cells can take their place. This will give the back a brighter look and a smoother feel. Your esthetician may also perform an extraction to remove blockages from the pores and heal acne on the back. 

Next, back facials typically involve a nourishing mask. This mask will be selected by your aesthetician for your unique needs and will contain ingredients to improve the health of your skin. After the mask, your aesthetician will apply a moisturizer to hydrate and soften the skin.
