For those who are running after time, taking a little time for yourself can seem like a luxury. However, it is actually an absolute necessity. Relaxing, getting rid of stress, recharging your batteries, resting… These habits have a significant impact on your mental health, and therefore on your well-being in the broad sense. Top Santé has put together a Top 10 of the best facial treatments to renew your skin but also to pamper yourself and help you let go.
1-Maria Galland’s signature treatment
Did you think that a facial treatment is less relaxing than a body treatment? That’s because you haven’t yet tried Maria Galland’s signature treatment… Masterfully created with virtuous formulas for the skin and mind, it includes Maria Galland’s Mosaic Modeling Method. An iconic protocol of the house since 1963, founded by a woman who decided to call herself Maria Galland when she wanted to enter the Miss France election without her parents’ approval. Elected Miss Ile-de-France, Maria Galland wanted to keep a trace of the face of her mother that she loved so much. The modeling mask, applied with a brush, hardens then heats up on contact with the skin to facilitate the penetration of these precious active ingredients. At the end of the treatment, the fascialist removes the mask and you will be able to see the real shape of your face. The results after just one treatment are spectacular. The face is plumped up, the complexion unified and rested.
2-Hydrafacial treatment at the Clinique du Grand Paris
Hydration, radiance, firmness, wrinkle reduction… this is the promise of the hydrafacial, a treatment straight from the United States designed to cleanse, exfoliate and deeply hydrate the skin. More than just a facial treatment, this protocol goes much further by combining classic, usual and traditional gestures with advanced medical-aesthetic technologies. The promise is largely kept at the Clinique du Grand Paris (37A Avenue d’Iéna in Paris 16th). The clinic has a team of internationally renowned doctors using the latest innovations in aesthetic medicine. This treatment, suitable for all skin types, promises you an hour of relaxation to regain your spirits with a rested complexion.
3-Peeling at the Clinic of Dr. Alexandre Koutsomanis
As soon as you enter the clinic, Dr. Alexandre Koutsomanis is attentive. An alternative to surgery, peeling is a non-invasive treatment that aims to facilitate the regeneration of the skin of the face, but also of the neck, by removing a superficial layer of the epidermis. Which forces it to regenerate. This innovative technique allows you to enhance your skin and give it a real boost of radiance. There are several types of peels: superficial peeling, medium peeling and deep peeling. The choice depends on the type of skin and the depth of your wrinkles and/or scars.
4-Le soin SkinCeuticals X Innerskin
The Hydrafacia lX SkinCeuticals treatment at Innerskin Rive Gauche is a real cure for rejuvenation for the skin, in addition to being a truly relaxing experience. After a very revealing skin diagnosis, the fascialist takes you on a 45-minute treatment that is as relaxing as it is regenerating. We then let ourselves be lulled by the expert gestures of a practitioner who will follow 3 key steps: cleansing + exfoliation, extraction hydration, unification and protection of the skin. To amplify its actions, the expert uses a special tool, a suction cup to suck up dead cells and other imperfections and to hydrate the skin at the same time. As a bonus, the choice of a “booster” will amplify the actions of the protocol by acting on all imperfections: wrinkles, sagging, brown spots or even oily skin… To finish, fifteen minutes of light therapy (photobiomodulation). This method that promotes skin regeneration uses medical LEDs to very precisely target the different layers of the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous tissues. From the first session, the results are edifying. The skin glows, the texture is smoothed and imperfections are clearly faded.
5-The Emuage custom facial treatment at the Black Door SPA
Located near the Champs-Elysées, the Black Door Spa in Paris offers a unique experience. A personalized treatment combining a facial treatment with an upper body massage, using a custom product created in collaboration with Emuage, which you can take home with you after the session. In addition, you have access to the swimming pool, sauna and hammam while your cosmetic is being prepared. It all starts with a diagnostic step. The spa invites you to fill out a form in order to best prepare your treatment. On the counter, there is an amazing machine by Emuage which turns out to be a portable mini-laboratory allowing the creation of custom cosmetics. The fascialist is there to advise you and invites you to choose the ingredients that will make up the serum, cream or eye contour treatment (your choice). For the active ingredients, we will choose what will promote radiance, hydration and the reduction of pigment spots. All that remains is to choose the fragrance. While the product is being prepared, the swimming pool awaits you. After 30 to 40 minutes of relaxation, we invite you to the third step of this experience: the facial treatment. For an hour, you find yourself in the hands of an expert who integrates massage into each step of the treatment ritual through a method combining different techniques such as kobido, drainage and face gym, thus integrating ancestral know-how with modern processes.
6-Customized care by Biologique Recherche
Opting for a Biologique Recherche treatment is always a good idea. The treatments are available at the iconic embassy on the Champs-Elysées. Each protocol begins with a meticulous, high-tech diagnosis carried out at the Skin Instant Lab. This device maps the epidermis, and the face in general, to determine its hydration, sebum production, bounce and the presence of irregularities: spots, wrinkles, rodents. Thus, the specialist can adjust each step of the personalized treatment that will follow. After a gentle cleansing to maintain the integrity of the skin, the P50 Exfoliating Mask is perfect for deep purification. An iconic product of the brand, this unique lotion excels at refining the skin’s texture while revealing its natural radiance. To conclude, a manual drainage, carried out with precise movements by the therapist, helps eliminate toxins accumulated in the face.
7-L’Hydrafacial de SkinThera
With a wide range of treatments, SkinThera offers the Hydrafacial treatment, in particular: as explained above, it purifies and revitalizes the skin by removing impurities and infusing essential serums. What you will notice at the end of the treatment: an improved overall appearance, a natural glow and unmatched skin quality. Reduce wrinkles, reduce imperfections or simply restore radiance to the complexion… this treatment is adapted to the specific needs of each person. At SkinThera, the team of experts personalizes each step of the Hydrafacial, from gentle exfoliation to deep hydration, for optimal results and radiant skin.
8-Intense Hydration treatment by Clarins, at Brach (Paris)
This treatment pampers dry and fragile skin and is ideal for restoring comfort, softness and radiance. Dehydration fine lines are plumped up and tightness is gone. Rediscover supple and pleasant-to-the-touch skin. Take the opportunity to pamper yourself at the swimming pool of this legendary hotel, with a stop at the salt cave.
9-Facial reflexology at Thalasso Concarneau (Dien Chan)
All parts of the body and organs are represented on the face. It reflects our emotions and our vitality of the moment. Dien Chan is a therapeutic method developed by Professor Bùi Quôc Châu in 1980. By stimulating points on the face, using a stylus or fingers, in connection with each organ and part of the body, this treatment restarts the circulation of energy throughout the body, acts on vitality, relaxation and quality of sleep. Each of these points can be stimulated to treat a specific area of the body. Facial reflexology can not only be therapeutic, but it is also very relaxing. Unlike acupuncture, Dien Chan is practiced without needles. A magnificent technique of relaxation and well-being.
10- The LED generation experience treatment by myBlend at the Grande Rousse hotel (Alpes d’Huez)
Deep relaxation in a cocoon perched at 1830m in the heart of Alpe d’Huez. The ultimate beauty experience made possible by the power of light with the LED mask for the face and neck. Also the opportunity to stock up on the many benefits of mountain air.
