This is then combined with a non-invasive and completely painless laser technology to increase circulation, collagen production and the lymphatic system to rid skin of toxins. By layering multiple technologies the Q MaxFacial is able to maximize skin care results and address a broad range of skin concerns including epidermal and dermal aging, dehydration, redness, dull complexion, acne and inflammation, uneven pigmentation, expression lines, wrinkles and solar elastosis.
A couple of weeks ago looking for a lunchtime pick-me-up, I headed over to Q Esthetics in Yorkville and tried out a treatment. I met with Marcela, a Senior Medical Esthetician who was able to assess my skin type and prepare a special treatment tailored just for me with infusions of vitamins, skin plumpers and luminescent spheres to give me an instant, refreshed glow. They have several different formulas - clarifying, hydrating, detoxifying and luminizing - and are able to mix and match them to suit any skin type.
After cleansing my skin it was time for Silkpeel Dermalinfusion - that offers advanced exfoliation along with the delivery of the treatment solution - if you've ever had microdermabrasion, that's what it's like - which I always think feels like being licked by a cat, scratchy and unpleasant but not painful. After that, it was time for the Soli-Tone Light Therapy - a wrap-around facial panel that selects the specific light energy required for your skin type and condition. It's totally non-evasive and they cover your eyes to protect them from the light - I almost could fall asleep except every once in a while the lights would change colour and pulse which would wake me up! The whole treatment took about 45 minutes and I left with soft glowing skin and super clean pores - but no redness or anything else that would have kept me from being able to go back to work (dammit!) - which also makes it a great option for before a special event when your skin needs some extra perking up!
The benefits to the Q Max Facial are numerous, some of which you will see instantly after just one treatment, while others are best realized after a few including: decrease of pore size, redness, and pigmentation; volumizes and visibly reduces fine lines and wrinkles; nutrient-rich hydrating; stimulates healthy cell renewal; and increase of circulation and lymphatic activity.
The treatment will set you back $325 or you can buy a package of 3 sessions for $820 and is available at all Q Esthetics locations:
