What are Medical-Grade Facials?

Medical-Grade Facials are advanced skincare treatments performed by trained professionals. These facials use powerful medical-grade ingredients, such as chemical peels, microneedling, or specialised serums. These treatments provide results, effectively rejuvenating the skin and targeting deep-seated issues.

The Difference Between Spa Facials vs Medical-Grade Facials?

Spa Facials emphasise relaxation and use gentle products. In contrast, Medical Grade Facials are clinical treatments conducted by professionals, featuring medical-grade products and advanced techniques to target specific skin concerns such as acne or ageing. Medical Grade Facials deliver more precise and long-lasting results, making them the preferred choice for individuals seeking intensive skincare solutions, while Spa Facials are ideal for relaxation and general skin maintenance.

When is the best time to get a Medical-Grade Facial?

The frequency of medical grade facials depends on factors like skin concerns and treatment goals. For chronic acne, a series of sessions every 4 weeks may be beneficial. If seeking immediate skin rejuvenation for a special event, a single facial can help, but optimal results often come from multiple sessions. As these treatments use medical-grade products, it's advisable to schedule them during periods with limited sun exposure and social events. While summer months are not ruled out, good sun protection is crucial.

What will I experience during a Medical-Grade Facial?

A Medical-Grade Facial involves cleansing, exfoliating, and nourishing the skin, utilising techniques such as chemical peels, enzyme treatments and microneedling . Additional modalities like LED light therapy may be included.

The duration varies, usually around 60 minutes. Mild discomfort and downtime can occur, depending on the procedure. Following the treatment, adhering to post-procedure instructions, especially regarding UV sensitivity, is crucial. We will provide guidance and post procedure products for optimal results and skin health.
