00:00I don't know how it's gonna feel. I feel like it's gonna feel good. Like there's
00:04gonna feel like I'm changing. It's a metamorphosis and a treatment.
00:09Hi, I'm Rissa and today I'm getting microdemobration at Joanna Vargas. So
00:13today is my first facial ever ever ever. I'm 27 years old and I feel like it's
00:18time. I PCOS which means I get hair along my jaw. It's male pattern hair
00:24growth. I'm always like working to combat that since I personally don't like it on
00:27my face. I'm hoping that with this treatment that my skin will look glowy
00:32and dewy and young and fresh and I can really start my new adult skincare
00:37routine. For me microdermabrasion is something that almost anybody can do
00:43that's not too scratchy and not too abrasive. Hi, I'm Joanna Vargas and I am
00:49an esthetician. I love microdermabrasion because I can do it as deep or as light
00:56as I want to do it. Works on every skin type and every skin tone. So I hear it's
01:02your first facial today. So what inspired you to come in? The texture of my cheeks
01:06and hyperpigmentation. I can definitely help you with those things. You'll look
01:10like you've just come back from vacation. I need one of those. I'm excited. The
01:15facial is one hour. It's gonna be an experience that's unique and I think
01:21she's gonna love the effect of having glowing skin afterward. First I cleanse
01:29the skin with a light toner. I use a little bit of toner just to clean off
01:35any of the oil-based serums she might have used before she got here today. This
01:41is just gonna help me exfoliate more thoroughly so that there's no slip in the
01:46wand that I am using right after this. Now I use a diamond tip wand that has a very
01:57fine amount of diamonds right in the surface of the tip.
02:25The cheek area is typically where you'll find some texture that they don't like or
02:31some unevenness in the skin tone and so the diamond tip wand really helps to even
02:39clean everything out and make the skin feel smooth again.
03:02It is really satisfying to check out the results of all of that effort.
03:09After I do microdermabrasion I always do a very deep cleanse of the skin. I always use
03:15my vitamin C face wash because it's exfoliating, it's calming, and it's a
03:22foaming face wash so it gets everything off the surface of the skin. Often when
03:26you do microdermabrasion you slough off dead skin cells but some remain right on
03:32the surface and so I'm cleaning all of that away. Next I do microcurrent which drains
03:39out excess puffiness.
03:44It tightens the muscle and tightens the skin so it's kind of like going to the gym for
03:49the face.
03:49the
04:16During the microcurrent step, I put on my
04:21bright eye hydrating mask to get the eyes super hydrated and glowing afterward.
04:35The final step of the Triple Crown facial is an oxygen treatment.
04:39I infuse the 98% pure oxygen with a serum I make of green tea, vitamins, and aloe.
04:47So it's super hydrating but also very calming and soothing for the skin.
04:52Oxygen by itself is also an anti-inflammatory, it's antibacterial, and it actually increases collagen production.
05:11That's it, she's done. She is going to be glowing.
05:17All right, beautiful, you are all done. You want to see?
05:20I definitely do.
05:21You look so amazing.
05:25Oh my gosh, I'm blowing back.
05:28It really has to work out for the face.
05:30Amazing!
05:31I think what people don't realize is that great skin isn't about your DNA.
05:36It's really about your routine, your skin care routine, and also lifestyle choices that you can make.
05:42Anybody could have great skin. You just have to make good choices.
05:46After this facial, I'm going to be more active and proactive in taking care of my skin.
05:50And I think that this is going to make me more conscious of actually the steps in learning how to
05:54take care of myself.
