Achieving a “glow up” goes beyond a simple makeover; it’s about integrating consistent and effective beauty and wellness practices into your daily life. These practices not only enhance your natural beauty but also boost your confidence and overall well-being. Many clients come into our facility wanting a one-time fix, and while we can provide an enhanced version of you on Day 1, it is best to develop a professional beauty routine to eliminate your concerns! This comprehensive guide will point you in the direction of what face, body, and well-being services we recommend to leveling up your appearance.
Facial Services and Add-Ons
One of the foundations of a glowing exterior is a radiant complexion. Facials and facial services are the cornerstone of what we offer at Beauty Innovations. We offer a number of services that cater to improving your facial skin, ranging from congestion, sensitivity, anti-aging, and more. Let’s discuss how our facials can help you achieve your #skingoals:
Oxygen Facials: The Key to Radiant Skin
Oxygen facials are an essential part of maintaining healthy, glowing skin. These facials work by infusing oxygen and vitamins directly into the skin, promoting cell regeneration and increasing collagen production. Suitable for all skin types, oxygen facials provide an instant boost in hydration and radiance, making your skin look fresh and vibrant.
Hydrafacials: Innovating a Deep Clean
HydraFacials are a popular and effective skin care treatment known for their ability to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate the skin. The multi-step process involves the use of a specialized device that gently removes dead skin cells and impurities while simultaneously infusing the skin with vital nutrients, antioxidants, and hyaluronic acid. This results in immediate and noticeable improvements in skin tone, texture, and hydration.
The HydraFacial treatment gently exfoliates, extracts impurities, and infuses skin with nourishing serums, leaving it hydrated and radiant. It diminishes the appearance of fine lines, improves firmness, and evens skin tone, resulting in a glowing, confident complexion. Regular monthly treatments are recommended to maintain these healthy skin results, with 94% of clients reporting increased confidence.
Another fun aspect of getting Hydrafacials are the booster add-ons for each skin type you can mix into the treatment. These can address any skin problems, for example our clarifying booster from Dr. Murad treats acne and our retinol booster from Dr NassifMD treats hyperpigmentation and fine lines and wrinkles.
Dermaplaning: Smooth and Exfoliate
Dermaplaning is a versatile treatment that leaves most skin types soft and smooth while enhancing the effectiveness of products applied afterward. When combined with Oxygen Induction using an O2 Concentrator, it further brightens and smooths the skin, improving its overall appearance. Dermaplaning is particularly effective for addressing textural issues, softening acne scars, removing epidermal pigment, and even providing slight skin tightening.
Dermaplaning is a highly effective exfoliation technique that involves using a surgical scalpel to gently scrape off dead skin cells and peach fuzz from your face. This process leaves your skin smooth and bright, allowing for better absorption of skincare products and creating a flawless canvas for makeup application.
Comprehensive Body Care
It would be amiss to leave out the array of body-treatments we offer, all the way from your scalp to your feet! At Beauty Innovations we pride ourselves on providing ways to treat your body from the inside out. One of the critical components of your wellbeing is your lymphatic system and your bloodstream. Let’s review how caring for these elements of health can impact the outside:
Lymphatic Drainage: Boost Your Immune System and Well-being
The Lymphatic System often referred to as the body’s “sewer system,” is a crucial part of our circulatory and immune systems. It has three primary functions: removing excess fluids from body tissues, absorbing fatty acids and transporting them to the circulatory system, and producing immune cells that help the body fight off infections. The system carries waste to lymph nodes located in the neck, armpits, and groin, which is then expelled through sweating, urination, and bowel movements. When the lymphatic system doesn’t function properly, fluid buildup can occur, leading to edema (swelling), often visible in the hands, feet, or as bloating in the stomach. Additionally, if the system fails to absorb and transport fatty acids efficiently, fat deposits may form. However, body sculpting techniques, such as massaging the legs, stomach, or face, can stimulate the lymphatic vessels to function optimally, aiding in waste removal and reducing fluid retention.
Lymphatic drainage is a gentle massage technique that stimulates the lymphatic system, helping to remove toxins and waste from the body. This treatment can reduce swelling, improve skin health, and boost your immune system. It’s particularly beneficial after surgical procedures or as a complement to other beauty treatments.
One of the most recurring feedback we hear from our lymphatic treatments is how well it lifts, contours, and defines your natural curves. This applies for your face as well, lymphatic drainage on your face can chisel your jawline and cheekbones!
Infrared Saunas: Detoxify and Relax
Getting hot from the inside out is one of the best ways to purge your system of built up toxins. The best way to do this is with the help of our Infrared saunas, which offer a unique way to improve circulation, cleanse your bloodstream, and promote relaxation. Unlike traditional saunas, infrared saunas use infrared light to penetrate the skin and raise your core body temperature, leading to a deep, detoxifying sweat. Regular sessions can help reduce stress, alleviate muscle pain, and enhance your overall well-being.
Here are the top 8 health benefits of using a far-infrared sauna:
1. Promotes weight loss and boosts metabolism.
2. Provides relief from muscle pain.
3. Strengthens the immune system and enhances heart health.
4. Reduces the appearance of cellulite.
5. Eases joint pain and stiffness.
6. Reduces stress and fatigue.
7. Enhances skin health.
8. Aids in detoxification.
Scalp Care: Nourish and Revitalize Your Hair
Your scalp is the foundation for healthy hair. Regular scalp care treatments, such as deep conditioning and exfoliating scalp scrubs, can restore moisture, strength, and shine to your hair. Proper scalp care promotes healthier hair growth and prevents issues like dandruff and dryness. Not only does it make you appear lifted and shiny, but it encourages relaxation.
Cellulite Treatment: Smooth and Tone
Last but not least, you likely have given the back of your thighs some thought at some point or another. We offer an excellent way to reduce the appearance and stimulate collagen on your problem-areas to improve over time. Cellulite treatment targets those stubborn areas of dimpled skin, often found on the thighs, buttocks, and abdomen. Treatments like laser therapy, radiofrequency, and massage can break down fat deposits, tighten skin, and improve the appearance of cellulite, giving you smoother and firmer skin.
Body Contouring: Define and Tone Your Physique
Body contouring treatments, such as lymphatic massage mentioned above, help you achieve a more toned and defined physique. These non-surgical procedures work by eliminating fat cells, tightening skin, and improving overall body contours. Combining body contouring with a healthy diet and regular exercise can maximize your results.They are also excellent at providing jaw-dropping instant results for special occasions or vacations!
Wet Treatments: Hello Body Scrub!
Body scrubs offer numerous benefits, including removing dead skin cells, refreshing your appearance to boost confidence, promoting skin hydration, clearing blemishes, and reducing stress. Body wraps provide momentary solutions for cellulite and weight issues while also offering exfoliation, moisturization, detoxification, and relaxation. Vitamin treatments help even out skin tone, improve elasticity, reduce the appearance of brown spots, decrease inflammation and irritation, and fade post-breakout red marks while supporting the skin’s natural healing response. Hydrotherapy, on the other hand, offers a range of health benefits, such as improved sleep, reduced stress, eased muscle tension, soothed arthritic joints, weight maintenance, and enhanced emotional health. The A&A Stationary Wet Treatment Table, a wet water bed with massaging water jets, allows a therapist to apply scrubs, wraps, and vitamins, providing effective relief from both pain and stress.
Creating Your Glow Up Routine
You’re probably wondering when, and how often, to incorporate the treatments above. To achieve the ultimate glow up, incorporate these services into your regular beauty and wellness routine. Here’s a sample plan we recommend to most of our clients:
Weekly: Infrared sauna sessions for detoxification and relaxation. This will help keep your body in top condition and reduce stress levels.
Bi-weekly: Scalp care treatments to maintain healthy and vibrant hair. Regular attention to your scalp will prevent common issues like dandruff and dryness.

Quarterly: Body contouring and cellulite treatments to refine your body contours. Periodic sessions will help you maintain a toned and sculpted physique.
As Needed: Lymphatic drainage for detoxification and immune support. Incorporating one every month or two can greatly improve circulation and fat deposit distribution.
By combining these advanced treatments, you’ll be on your way to a stunning transformation.
Invest in yourself by incorporating these practices, and watch as your natural beauty shines through. Remember, glowing up is a continuous journey, and with dedication to these treatments, you’ll achieve lasting results that will boost your confidence and enhance your life.
