Facials
What are Facials?
Facials are non-invasive skincare treatments designed to cleanse, exfoliate, and nourish the skin. As we age, our skin's natural renewal process slows down, leading to dullness, uneven texture, and minor imperfections. Facials help to refresh and rejuvenate the skin, promoting a healthier, more youthful appearance without the use of chemicals or invasive procedures.
How do Facials work?
Facials typically involve a series of steps that work together to improve skin health and appearance:
1. Cleansing to remove surface impurities
2. Exfoliation to remove dead skin cells
3. Massage to stimulate circulation and lymphatic drainage
4. Application of targeted serums and masks
5. Moisturising to hydrate and protect the skin
What kind of results will I see from Facials?
Results from facials are generally immediate but temporary:
- Brighter, more radiant complexion
