Slowing down the Aging Process

Factors of dehydration and dryness of the skin are divided into
-Environmental factors: pollution, harsh weather conditions, extreme cold, air conditioning and harsh detergents.
-Internal factors: cellular aging, hormone imbalances, stress and hereditary factors.

Characteristics of dehydrated skin: rough, flakiness, tightness, and fine line. When dehydrated the skin is 75% more vulnerable and its aging mechanism is likely to accelerate.

However, it is possible to reduce or slow down this process, with regular facials, even ‘at home’ facials are helpful.

For more information about Le Petit Spa’s Hydrating Facial or for a free skin care consultation, please do not hesitate to come see us in Kits, at the corner of West Broadway & Alma.
We carry a variety of products from Vie to MD Formulations; that can help with your ‘at home’ facial!
Looking forward to seeing you at Le Petit Spa in Kits!!
