As we transition from summer’s sunshine to the cooler, crisper days of fall, our skin often shows signs of the change. While we tend to focus on our face, the skin on our back is just as vulnerable to summer sun damage, sweat buildup, and clogged pores. Now is the perfect time to reset and refresh with a professional back treatment—designed to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate this often-overlooked area.
What are Back Treatments?
Back treatments are professional skincare services that focus on the skin of your back, combining elements of a facial with targeted body care. Much like facials, they include cleansing, exfoliation, extractions (if needed), and masks tailored to your skin type. Some treatments even incorporate scrubs, hydration therapies, or chemical peels for deeper results—making them an ideal way to refresh your skin post-summer.
Why Your Back Needs Love Too:
The back is one of the most neglected areas in skincare. After a season of long days in the sun, outdoor activities, and heat-induced sweat, the skin on your back may be struggling with:
-
Back acne (“bacne”): Caused by clogged pores, sweat, and oil buildup from hot summer days.
-
Dryness and flakiness: Especially as temperatures drop and the air becomes drier in fall.
-
Sun damage: Missed sunscreen application often leads to uneven tone or dryness.
-
Neglect: Without consistent care, buildup of dead skin cells can leave the back looking dull.
Treating your back now helps restore balance, prevent seasonal skin struggles, and prepare your skin for the colder months ahead.
