What Is a Salt Facial?
SaltFacial is a state-of-the-art platform that uses natural sea salt, ultrasound technology, and LED phototherapy to gently exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. The treatment is done in three easy steps which are not only pain-free but can also be relaxing.
Step 1: Restore
During the first step of your treatment, we will use the SaltFacial platform to exfoliate the skin. This treatment only removes the very first layer of the epidermis, called the stratum corneum, so the process isn’t painful. The handpiece delivers very fine, all-natural, medical-grade salt to the skin.
During this step, the skin is exfoliated and the dead skin cells are removed. In addition to exfoliating the skin, the sea salt provides other benefits such as soothing inflammation and hydrating the skin. Depending on the area that is being treated, this portion of the treatment could take 15 or more minutes to complete.
Step 2: Replenish
The next step is ultrasound therapy which is designed to help your skin to replenish all of the nutrients and hydration that it has lost. By increasing circulation in the skin and causing microchannels to form in the skin, your skin will be able to absorb moisture and nutrients more effectively. A special mask will be applied to the skin and then the ultrasound massage will be used to help your skin soak in the nutrients. The typical treatment time for this step is around 8 minutes if you are treating your facial area.
Step 3: Rejuvenate
After the ultrasound portion of your treatment is complete, you will move on to the LED rejuvenation step. This treatment uses phototherapy to help reduce bacteria, help with cell turnover, and much more. The treatment can be customized based on your needs. Blue LED phototherapy can be used for individuals with acne-prone skin. Red LED is great for healing inflammation and redness in the skin. Amber LED phototherapy is excellent for rejuvenation and promoting a shortened healing time.

5 Salt Facial Benefits
1. Can Help Sooth Eczema
Sea salt skin resurfacing can be an effective way to treat eczema. Because sea salt can help reduce both redness and inflammation, salt treatments are commonly recommended by doctors for patients who suffer from eczema. A SaltFacial can help relieve many of the symptoms of this condition and patients often see improvement after one session.
2. Can Provide Anti-Inflammatory Benefits
Natural sea salt has many anti-inflammatory properties. It has a high mineral content that can help nourish the skin, reduce pain, and calm inflammation. If you have skin conditions such as psoriasis that are characterized by inflammatory skin, you may be able to benefit from this treatment.
3. SaltFacials Are Moisturizing
One of the salt facial benefits is its ability to remoisturize the skin. Salt helps the skin to hold in moisture by giving it a protective barrier. The treatment also allows moisture to penetrate deeper into the skin allowing your skin to feel less dry and to have a healthy and moisturized appearance.
4. Good for All Skin Types
While some treatments are more prohibitive and cannot be used on all skin types, SaltFacials are much more versatile. This type of treatment can be used for individuals with sensitive skin, dry skin, acne-prone skin, oily skin, and more. Plus, it is good for all skin tones and can be a good way to replenish and restore the health of your skin all year long.
5. No Pain or Downtime
Facial salt scrub treatments can be great for patients who want to rejuvenate their skin but don’t want treatments that are painful or will cause them to miss work. This treatment is so gentle that most patients do not report any side effects besides skin that feels softer and looks healthier.
