Discover Your Best Skin: Your Guide to an Enzyme Facial in Dallas
Put your DIY avocado mask and cucumbers back inside the fridge—let us introduce you to a facial treatment incomparable to anything else on the market!
The DMK enzyme facial isn’t your average skin treatment, in fact we don’t even call it a facial….it’s an enzyme therapy. By infusing the skin with powerful enzymes, this AMAZING treatment strengthens even the deepest layers of your skin. This summer, we’re saying hello to the glow and goodbye to the dry, pigmented or acneic.
The Dallas skincare experts at Spa in the City believe enzymes are the anti-aging powerhouse no one talks about. Of course we wouldn’t hide any of our beauty secrets from you! We’ve got you covered with the ins and outs of all things enzyme therapy.
Why your skin ages… no, it’s not just time.
We’re not saying the passing years don’t play a role in aging skin. Even if you’re 90 years old and take good care of your skin, you’re not going to look like you’re 40.
However, there’s a single culprit that ages your skin even faster.
UV radiation from the sun (or tanning beds) literally damages your tissue at the cellular level. We’ll explain.
We all know our good friend collagen and how important it is for healthy skin. When you’re young, your body produces ample amounts of collagen and elastin fibers. Unfortunately, time is not on your side. Starting around your mid-20s, your body slows its production. The result? Your skin’s natural framework slowly loses its structure, making it harder to combat environmental damage.
Going back to UV damage…
On top of the natural aging process, UV rays reach deep inside your tissue and break down collagen and elastin fibers. So not only are you fighting time, but you could also make matters worse if you aren’t cautious in the sun.
Here’s your solution: Wear SPF. Every. Single. Day. Seriously, every day. Not every other day, not once a week, you need sunscreen at all times. In fact, it’s best if you reapply throughout the day; one application doesn’t last forever.
Important Note: SPF helps prevent photoaging; it is not a treatment for aging skin. That’s why it’s crucial to wear daily SPF in your teens and 20s. So when your 30s and 40s roll around, you will have less sun damage and visible signs of aging.
What’s the big deal about enzymes for anti-aging, anyway?
Many skincare trends pop up claiming to work miracles, but haven’t we all been there and done that? Instead of trying to keep up with the latest Instagram or TikTok fad, it’s time to take care of your skin the right way. That means seeking out scientifically (not influencer) backed treatments that actually work.
That brings us back to the best enzyme therapy treatment in Dallas, and we never say “the best” lightly. So let’s talk about enzymes.
Enzymes are proteins found within your cells, and are absolutely crucial for your health. These micro-superheros help you build muscle, release toxins, digest food, and more. Basically, enzymes are your friend.
While not all great things for your body work for your skin, enzymes definitely do! When you apply enzymes directly onto your face, they work overtime to break down the keratin protein in your epidermis (surface layers of your skin).

Quick fact: Keratin bonds dead skin cells together, making it a lot harder to get rid of them.
Without all of that extra keratin, enzymes act as a natural exfoliant. Don’t believe us? Think about when you eat a pineapple and get that tingly feeling on your tongue. That’s literally enzymes breaking down tissue on your tongue. #TheMoreYouKnow
Enzymes also fight against free radicals and protect the skin from oxidative damage. Combine enzyme treatments with a great SPF, and you’ll be on your way toward ageless skin!
How does an enzyme facial therapy work?
First off, don’t expect an enzyme facial therapy to be like any ol’ facial. This is a TOTALLY different ballgame, and that’s the point! DMK created a powerful treatment that goes above and beyond the norm, providing truly exceptional results for almost anyone. The botanical-based paramedical products work with your biochemistry to enhance your skin from the inside out.
During a customized enzyme therapy treatment, your specialist will apply the products specifically for your unique needs. As the product sits on your skin, it begins to harden and perform its magic. Through reverse osmosis, enzymes help remove dead protein, toxins, and other unwanted materials that stem from sun damage.
The treatment also affects your blood vessels, lymphatic system, and even facial muscles. First, enzymes promote blood vessel dilation, which boosts oxygen levels to nourish your skin. Second, as the facial continues, enzymes encourage lymph node drainage, so you can say “So long!” to all those nasty toxins. Finally, the treatment stimulates and strengthens your facial muscles to restore your youthful appearance.
As DMK specialists, we’ve seen the amazing benefits of enzyme therapy for countless clients. Benefits include:
Detoxification: An enzyme facial detoxes skin cells and flushes out impurities, leaving your skin glowing and radiant.
Exfoliation: Enzymes act as an effective yet gentle exfoliant that smooths the skin’s surface and reduces the appearance of scars. It’s also great for people who are more sensitive to acids.
Collagen Stimulation: With DMK enzyme therapy, you can finally regain lost collagen from years of sun damage. That means tighter skin, smoothed wrinkles, and an overall more age-defying look.
One of our favorite benefits? Enzyme facials come with zero downtime! That means you can enjoy all of their rejuvenating benefits without taking time off to rest. We call that a real win-win situation.

Do medical-grade skincare products actually make a difference?
Of course they do! At Spa in the City, we’re not in the business of making unnecessary recommendations because it sounds good. We truly want to see our clients flourish, and medical-grade products have a serious impact on the skin’s look and feel.
Medical-grade skincare products go beyond the basic over-the-counter (OTC) products you see at your local drugstore. How? It’s all about the active ingredients, the concentration of those ingredients, and the rigorous clinical testing process.
Active ingredients
If you want quality, a skin care specialist knows exactly which products include the best medical-grade ingredients.
The thing is, these ingredients don’t come out of thin air (but wouldn’t that be great?). Instead, researchers and scientists spend years discovering new plants, analyzing new compounds, and developing innovative formulas. Some people even dedicate their life’s work to advancing skincare products.
On the other hand, OTC products don’t put the time or effort into using high-quality ingredients. OTC skin care manufacturers focus on mass production while keeping the price as low as possible (beware: they may still overcharge you). That means, they take the research from medical-grade products to create less potent and effective versions.
Concentration of active ingredients
We all know that ingredients such as Vitamin C, retinoid, and alpha-hydroxy acids are great to add to your daily skincare regimen. The key, though, is how much of those ingredients are present and their stability.
For instance, let’s consider hydroquinone. Hydroquinone is a powerful ingredient used to treat hyperpigmentation, but it’s only as powerful as its concentration. OTC products can only have up to 2% of hydroquinone in their formulas. On the other hand, medical-grade products can have up to 5%. That’s more than a 50% increase, meaning you get better results at a faster rate.
The clinical testing process
Many people don’t realize that OTC products do not require the same extreme testing as medical-grade products. That’s mainly because the concentration of active ingredients isn’t as high. As a result, some products make claims that aren’t clinically proven.
The truth: medical-grade skincare goes through years of testing to prove what they say is going to happen actually happens. So when a label says something like, “will reduce fine lines and wrinkles,” you bet your bottom dollar tests have proved the product reduces fine lines and wrinkles.
