  • Cleansing
  • Steaming

Who Will Benefit From Medical Facials?

All skin types and concerns will benefit from our bespoke Medical Facials. Each facial is tailor-made, and ingredients are carefully selected to ensure you receive optimal results.

At What Age Should I Start With Medical Facials?

We recommend starting with Medical Facials from the age of puberty. This keeps the skin clean and prevents common problems associated with teenage skins. As we get older the types of facial treatments required change to focus more on anti-ageing and feeding the skin with the correct active ingredients.

Will I Break Out After My Facial?

Due to the stimulation that occurs in a Medical Facial it is possible that the skin may break out. It is therefore recommended to avoid Medical Facials just before a special occasion and rather allow for 2 weeks before the occasion so that the skin can heal.

How Do I Choose The Best Facial For Me?
