What is an AFA Clay Peel Facial?
AFA Clay Peel Facials are loaded with antioxidants to help exfoliate your acne prone skin and help retain moisture. The secret is its ingredients: Amino Acid Filaggrin based Antioxidants (AFA) Clay Peels are formulated using the same type of amino acids found in your body. They work naturally to boost the moisture in your skin. For patients looking for an effective way to treat their scars and acne-prone skin, the AFA Clay Peel Facial is one of the best treatments available with the least amount of irritation.
The two-step clay mask and refreshing peel process of the AFA Clay Peel helps your acne-prone skin with:
- Maintaining more moisture
- Deeper exfoliation without skin irritation
- Reducing hyperpigmentation
- Reversing signs of aging with tighter, toned skin
- Achieving an overall smoother feeling skin
How Does the AFA Clay Peel Facial Work?
Filaggrin is a protein that is naturally found in the upper layer of our skin. When it metabolizes, it becomes acidic moisture that helps to retain amino acids. It is these amino acids that are used to create an AFA Clay Peel, mimicking and boosting your skin’s natural ability to retain moisture.
At Midtown Med Spa, we offer the AFA Clay Peel as a two-step process:
- First, the AFA Clay Mask is applied. Remaining on your face for five minutes, it works to draw out impurities and absorb any excess oil from your face. When complete, it is carefully removed with water.
- Following the mask, the AFA Peel is applied. It exfoliates your dead skin cells and removes any remaining impurities, all with minimal irritation to your skin.
The result is smoother, tighter feeling skin that stays hydrated, helping to soften scars and subdue acne.
