NOT JUST A PRETTY FACIAL

The technologies and techniques at the business end of your treatment

Galvanic current

Low-level electrical current is passed through the skin, to stimulate drainage, tighten tissues and improve absorption of skincare ingredients.

LED (light-emitting diode) therapy Varying light wavelengths (blue, red, yellow or green) boost circulation, trigger healing and kill acne-causing bacteria.

Micro-needling

Tiny needles roll over the skin, creating micro-wounds that kick-start healing processes, increase collagen production and improve product absorption.

Microdermabrasion Jets of fine crystals (or other exfoliating particles) are buffed over the skin and suctioned away to polish off dead cells and prompt cellular regeneration.

Cosmetic acupuncture

Super-fine needles are inserted into the face, and sometimes body, to stimulate organs, heal tissues, boost micro-circulation and release tension.

Chemical peel Application of exfoliating acids to lift away dead skin. Generally no downtime required if billed as a facial rather than a clinical peel.

Lymphatic drainage A form of massage using light, pumping fingers or sculpting tools to speed up elimination of waste products from the skin’s tissues.

Radiofrequency

For tightening and firming; radio waves are sent into the dermis to boost collagen production, softening fine lines and creating volume and lift.
