A beauty therapist needs to have a thorough knowledge of facial treatments, skincare advice and products in order for the client to feel confident in the therapists skills.

A therapist therefore needs to understand the benefits of a general facial treatment – these are outlined on the next slide. In addition, each skincare company will design their facial to have additional benefits, and these are called unique selling features. For this reason you will often find that facial procedures vary greatly.

What are the benefits of having a facial treatment?

To improve the appearance of the skin. To balance out problems of the skin. To deep cleanse the skin. To help improve muscle tone. To speed up cell renewal therefore helping to

slow down the ageing process. To keep the skin soft by removing dead skin

cells for relaxation and pampering. To encourage the client to look after their

skin at home.

What do I need to learn?

In order to be able to carry out a competent facial treatment you will need to understand:

Health, safety and hygiene procedures. How to correctly prepare for the treatment. Consultation procedures. Contra-indications to facial treatments. Understand the effects of the different skin care products –

cleansers, toners, moisturisers, massage mediums, masks and specialist products.

Skin analysis, how to recognise different skin types and conditions.

Facial routine – use a benefits of each stage of the facial. Aftercare and contra-action advice. Anatomy and physiology of the skin, muscles, bones, blood

and lymph. Factors that effect the skin.

It is common practice for a facial treatment to take approximately 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes.

things.
