Yon-Ka Paris
The world can be a harsh and challenging place – especially for your skin. Between photoaging caused by the sun’s damaging UV rays and other environmental aggressors like pollution or second-hand smoke, the skin takes a beating every day.
A daily skincare routine is the secret to healthy, younger-looking skin but sometimes the skin could use a little extra help. Professional facials can amplify the benefits of at-home skincare and help address specific concerns like fatigued facial contours, dull complexion, and sun damage. Individuals who live in urban areas should take additional steps to heal and protect their skin if they hope to maintain its youthful appearance.
Vital Defense is a targeted professional treatment designed to heal the skin from the harmful effects of environmental stress and improve its resilience for the future.
Treatment Overview
Free radicals break down collagen and contribute to the visible signs of aging like fine lines, dark spots, and wrinkles. While it may not be practical or possible to avoid every environmental aggressor that has the potential to cause free radical damage, the Vital Defense treatment can help heal the skin and restore its natural protective barrier to mitigate future damage.
Vital Defense is ideal for younger clients who want to protect their skin against the damage caused by environmental aggressors and for anyone who has a dull complexion.
Features of Vital Defense include:
- Make-up removal and cleansing
- Clay cleansing with soft brush
- Gentle exfoliation and deep peeling
- Face, neck and décolleté massage with Vital Defense Crème and ampoule
- Firming and lifting eye contour massage
- Application of Vital Defense cream
- Signature aromatherapy rituals start and end the treatment
For optimal benefit, clients should receive Vital Defense treatments once a month. The facial can be customized according to the client’s skin type using Masque 103 for normal to oily skin and Masque 105 for dry and/or sensitive skin and the option the add the detoxifying benefits of rosemary essential oil by blending in Phyto 58 Treatment Crème.
The Vital Defense Experience
Vital Defense is a targeted treatment that detoxifies and conquers the effects of free radicals and pollutants. In a 60-minute facial, clients will enjoy relaxing massage, soothing aromatherapy, and the application of exclusive Yon-Ka Paris techniques and professional-grade products from peels to masks.
The Vital Defense treatment begins with the Yon-Ka signature introduction featuring the gentle inhalations of Emulsion Concentree followed by an aromatic Phyto-Bain compress. The treatment continues with makeup removal and cleansing before moving into a gentle peel with Gommage Yon-Ka. A second application of professional-strength Emulsion Concentree is blended with water and run through the Lucas Championerre to create a fine mist. A classic infusion system, the Lucas purifies; hydrates and regenerates the skin in preparation for a deep peeling application of Active Micro Peel.
Extractions are performed as needed, followed by an eye contour massage with Nutri-Contour and a face, neck, and décolleté massage with Vital Defense and Nutri + Booster. Hydration is restored with a moisturizing combination of Masque 103 or 105 and Phyto 58, followed by a refreshing spray of Lotion Yon-Ka. The treatment concludes with the application of Vital Defense, Phyto 152, and Lait Hydratant.
