I have had two facials in my life, and each time I have one, my skin feels rough and a little bumpy afterwards. Is this normal? I am 46 years old. Seems like it is more puffy as well.
 
It sounds as if the estitician (sp?) is using too much pressure and perhaps even attempting extractions on areas of your face that do not need them. I have had facials where I have experienced this, and have had facials at my dermatologist's office with a RN and have never experienced this. Needless to say, I only get them at my derm's office now. Maybe some skin care pros can chime in as well?
