Let’s explore why your next facial might be exactly what your mind and body are craving—especially here in Vermont, where our long winters and busy lives can take a toll on both your skin and mental health.
The Power of Touch and Personal Attention
In today’s world, we rarely slow down. Our schedules are full, our phones are always buzzing, and self-care often gets pushed to the bottom of the list. A facial at Glow Aesthetics offers more than just a customized skincare experience—it’s one of the few times you’re invited to completely relax while someone else cares for you.
Human touch, especially in a therapeutic setting, has been shown to lower cortisol (the stress hormone), reduce anxiety, and increase feelings of safety and well-being. This is part of why so many of our clients leave feeling more restored after even a single session.
Visible Results = Emotional Confidence
It’s not superficial to feel more confident when your skin looks its best. In fact, it’s backed by research: when people are happy with their appearance, they often report lower stress levels, higher self-esteem, and more motivation to take care of themselves in other areas of life.
Whether it’s a Glow Signature Facial, a refreshing VI Peel, or results-driven treatments like RF Microneedling, our offerings are designed to help you love the skin you’re in—while also giving you a well-deserved mental reset.
Creating a Routine of Self-Care
Medical spa treatments offer structure to your self-care routine. Instead of waiting until your skin is struggling, regular facials and consultations help you stay ahead of stress and inflammation.
That’s why so many of our clients in Burlington make monthly visits to Glow part of their wellness routine. Just like a therapy session or yoga class, facials and aesthetic services can become a positive habit that helps you feel in control of your own well-being.
The Relationship Between Mental Health and Skin Health
There’s a real connection between chronic stress and skin concerns like acne, premature aging, dullness, and rosacea. When we help calm the nervous system and support your skin barrier with professional care, we’re not just improving your appearance—we’re helping your entire body function more harmoniously.
The skin is often a reflection of what’s happening internally, and when your stress levels go down, your skin has a much better chance to heal and thrive.
