Deep exfoliation facial:  The classic treatment and the perfect rapid radiance pump-up.

It is suitable for all skin types  and addresses concerns related to mild congestion, dehydration and dullness.

Men’s Facial: A made-to-order facial for the gentlemen, this treatment kicks off with a deep pore cleansing and skin-smoothing microdermabrasion. Followed by a hydrating mask tackling ingrown hair and shaving irritation, and light extractions decongest the skin. At the finale, high-frequency waves and a vitamin-enriched oxygen blast kills acne-causing bacteria while giving skin an intense lift of hydration and nourishment. You’ll head out feeling firmer, brighter and revitalised, basically, like a new man. You can tackle problems like congestion, shaving irritation, dehydration and dryness with this procedure.

Party- Ready Facial: This is the perfect time saver facial with a rapid glow.  The treatment begins with a purifying cleanse, trailed by a full session of muscle-stimulating technology to visibly firm, lift, and plump the skin. A light exfoliation and super-smoothing peel preps the skin for a dose of deeply hydrating hyaluronic serum. The finale is a vitamin-infused, skin-energising oxygen blast leaving your skin feeling lifted, luminous and ready for close-up. It helps deal with skin problems like dullness, dehydration and elasticity.

Acne-Fighting Facial: This creative facial uses progressive innovation to expel breakouts and keep them under control for restored skin. The treatment starts with an intense cleanse, trailed by justly adapted single or double exfoliation and extractions. Next, high-frequency waves and Cryo therapy pulverise acne-causing micro-organisms while accelerating healing and reducing swelling. It’s finished off with a vitamin -packed oxygen blast, leaving skin refined, calm and in the clear. It is suitable for people with oily, acne-prone and congested skin type and addresses concerns regarding acne/blemishes, heavy congestion, excessive oiliness, redness and irritation.
