"Hi this is Teri Lynne and in this segment I am going to answer the question how often should you get a facial? That's a great question. Let's backtrack a bit shall we and answer the question what is a facial first of all? Now a facial is anything that is going to slough off dull dead skin cells and skin and reveal younger smoother healthier skin underneath. You can do that in a variety of ways. You can use some sort of mask, a mud or a clay mask works or micro-dermabrasion which is one of the newest things and it is a machine that lightly circulates rucker particles into your skin breaking apart all the old skin cells and bringing the new ones out and a in a bit of a harsher way it does get rid of some fine lines and wrinkles as well so that's why it is such a popular procedure these days. Now if you are doing a home facial which is usually like a mask or something you can do that once a week but if you are going to go and get a professionally done facial you really only need to get that done three to four times a year because it is a little bit harsher on your skin and often there is certain chemicals they use in some of those peels and masks that you don't want to have on your skin much more often than three to four times a year. So what I recommend again for home once a week you can do your own home facial, going out to a salon, three to four times a year should do it to reveal the newer, younger, fresher looking you."
