Benefits of facial Saunas / Spas / Steamers (by Katherine
Mariaca)
"Regularly applying warm steam to the face is a truly beneficial beauty
treatment available to anyone. Whether applied during a professional facial in a
spa or at home under a tented bath towel, facial steam applications give you
multiple skin health and beauty benefits.
Increased Circulation
Receptors on the skin alert the brain when the ambient temperature rises. In
response to rising temperatures, the body initiates a thermoregulating response.
As part of that response, blood vessels in the skin dilate so more blood can
flow to the skin to let off heat. In addition to letting off heat, blood
delivers oxygen and nutrients to tissue. This increased blood flow in the skin
is one of the benefits of using steam on your face.
Increased Perspiration
While pores do not really “open and close”, they have no muscles around the
pore opening to accomplish this feat, facial steam does increase perspiration,
and this has a cleansing effect on skin. Perspiration is about 99 percent
water, according to the Department of Physiology at Indiana
University’s Medical School. When perspiration flows from the skin, it
carries impurities, dirty, bacteria, dead skin cells and other debris that may
be trapped in pores to the surface of skin, where it can easily be removed. This
helps draw out buildup, softening blackhead and whitehead plugs so they gently
release from the skin The steam also softens the surface of the skin again
helping to lift and remove impurities, grime and makeup.
Blackhead and Whitehead Plugs
Sebum, the natural skin oil that moisturizes, protects and lubricates hair and
skin, is produced by sebaceous glands in the hair follicles. When sebum becomes
trapped in a follicle, ether because of excessive sebum production or because
the follicular opening has become clogged, acne (whiteheads and blackheads)
breakouts result. When steam is applied to the face. The steam softens blackhead
plugs so they will easily and gently release from follicular openings. The
buildup of sebum inside the follicle can then flow naturally.
Anti-Aging
Visible skin is dead skin; to produce new skin, cells divide in a process called
mitosis. When they are new, skin cells are plump and firm. Over time, these
cells migrate up through the layers of skin and undergo profound physiological
changes. By the time they reach the uppermost layer of skin, the cells are flat,
hard and dead. They are bound to each other and to the living tissue below via a
type of cellular cement. These dead skin cells provide a protective barrier
function for the body to keep environmental, bacterial, fungal and viral
aggressors from entering and to keep too much moisture from escaping. In youth,
cellular turnover takes, on average, 28 days. As people age, however, they do
not shed the dead cells as quickly, and skin begins to look old, depleted and
tired. Steam helps loosen the cellular cement that binds too many dead skin
cells to the surface of skin. After a facial steam, skin appears fresher and
younger-looking."
