A common misconception about skincare routines is the myth that females are limited to such rituals. Many believe that achieving flawless skin is a concern reserved for women. Ever asked a man about the secret behind their seemingly effortless complexion? The answer is often a simple facewash HydraFacial.
Evidently, female skin is more prone to acne, facial lines, and wrinkles. No doubt, biology and hormonal imbalances play a significant role in this aspect. However, that does not mean men are exempt from the rituals of a dedicated skincare routine. Men can equally benefit from skin treatments, facials, and teeth whitening to achieve their own version of flawless skin. At Leslieville Spa, we ensure to provide ultimate services for both females and men.
Before we dive into the skincare routine for men, let us have a brief overlook of the minor differences between men and women’s skin.
How are Men and Women’s Skin Any Different?
Over the years, many have argued that there is no significant difference between men and women’s skin. “Skin is skin,” they would claim, irrespective of gender. However, researchers and dermatologists have denied this idea and presented various pieces of evidence on how skin and its texture vary among genders.
Physiologically speaking, despite the skin being fundamentally the same, we have seen a few differences. Men tend to have slightly more visible pores and can be more prone to acne. In comparison to females, men also have more active oil glands. This ultimately results in more blackheads, congestion, and breakouts, making the goal of flawless skin seem more distant.
Moreover, another key difference is the thickness. The collagen, the key protein structure in the skin, in men starts to degrade sooner than in females. Lastly, the obvious difference necessitating a distinct skincare routine for men is facial hair.
Given these differences, the unique and medical-grade Toronto HydraFacial treatment at our Upper Beaches Spa is designed to cater to both, addressing the specific needs of each to achieve genuinely flawless skin.
Proposed Skin Care Ritual for Men
It is generally recommended that men should go for products that are more deeply cleansing, effectively exfoliating, and contain ingredients that specifically target bacteria and successfully reduce excessive oil secretions. We would also recommend men utilize products that deal with the aging process.
Here are some of the treatments and products specially designed for a man’s skincare routine that we love to suggest for achieving flawless skin:
Balancing Cleansing Gel
Go for a gentle foaming cleansing agent to deal with oil production. The best way to use it is to moisten your hands and massage it over your face and neck thoroughly, then rinse with lukewarm water. Preferably do this routine once in the morning and once at night.
Resurfacing Exfoliants
Use a gentle scrub of resurfacing exfoliants to reduce congestion, blackheads, and remove dead skin. Again, apply to damp skin on the face and neck and massage properly with your fingertips. Leave it for a few minutes before rinsing with warm water. Do this 2-3 times per week for a smoother path to flawless skin.
Our beautiful Toronto spa offers these services as you lie comfortably and get rid of skin problems in no time.
