Lori Yeats, owner of Soteria Skin in Bellaire, TX, invited me to try her ultimate anti-aging facial. I was blown away by all the anti-aging treatments she packed into this 2 hour facial and had to share the experience. The facial is a tremendous value and unlike any that I have experienced. It’s $155, but similar services at other spas could be as much as 3 to 5 times that. Here’s everything included in the facial:
1. Microdermabrasion – This treatment removes the outer and upper layers of dead skin cells, accelerates cell turnover as well as collagen production for firmer, more glowing skin. This process can minimize fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores, and acne scars. My skin was smoother and more glowy after the treatment. It can take a few days after this treatment to see the full effects.
Lori’s microdermabrasion pre-treatment really sets her apart. Most other spas prep the skin for microdermabrasion by removing facial oils with acetone (yes, the same ingredient that’s in most nailpolish removers). Soteria uses a papaya enzyme mask to get the same results with natural ingredients and without using harsh chemicals.
2. LED light therapy – LED Light Therapy has been used by NASA, the US Army and athletes for quick healing. It is also an effective, non-invasive way to help rejuvenate and repair the skin. In the ultimate anti-aging facial, the skin of the face is exposed to red and infrared light that penetrate into the dermis layer of the skin, energizing the cells, stimulating collagen and elastin, to give skin back its youthful look.
3. Microcurrent Non-Surgical Facelift – As we age, the communication between our brains and muscles decreases, causing our muscles to weaken and our faces to sag. This treatment uses micro currents to get the facial muscles and brain “talking” again. After Lori treated on side of my face, she let me look in a mirror to compare it to the untreated side. Wow, I instantly saw a difference in the tone and lift of my face! This is a great treatment to do a couple days before an important event. For lasting effects, you need a series of treatments that re-educate your muscles
4. Oxygen Therapy – Oxygen has been used to speed skin rejuvenation in medical applications for years. Soteria Skin adds oxygen therapy to their facial to increase the effect of the other skin renewal treatments. You may not recognize the direct effect of this treatment, but the results of the other treatments will be more pronounced because of this step.

Yeah Microdermabrasion is the best treatment for removing acne, dark spots, age spots, white and black heads and many more. I have tried this treatment and I get the best results.
