ADVANCED facials
Where a facial stops being a treat and starts being treatment. Our advanced facials use medical-grade devices, acids and actives to work below the surface of the skin — resurfacing, stimulating collagen, clearing congestion and calming inflammation. Every one begins with a skin analysis, so what you have done is decided by what your skin actually needs rather than what sounded good on the menu.
Hydrafacial
Hydrafacial is the medi-facial that earned its reputation honestly: cleansing, exfoliating, extracting and hydrating in a single treatment, with results you can see the same day and no downtime to plan around. Whether it's a glow before an event or the appointment your skin relies on every month, this is the one that does the most.
-
Hydrafacial is more than a conventional facial. A pen-like handpiece fitted with a single-use spiral tip uses patented Vortex hydradermabrasion technology to work through a sequence of steps: detoxifying, cleansing and exfoliating, brightening, extracting, and finally hydrating. Gentle vacuum suction lifts out dirt, oil, dead skin cells and pore debris while hydrating serums — antioxidants, peptides and hyaluronic acid — are infused back into the skin at the same time. Targeted booster serums can be added for specific concerns, and the treatment finishes with LED light to stimulate collagen and calm redness.
-
Hydrafacial suits almost everyone, which is a large part of its appeal. It's an excellent solution for congested, acne-prone skin — blackheads, oily areas and enlarged pores — and equally effective on ageing skin, improving fine lines, uneven tone, dullness and overall skin health.
It's a good choice if you want visible results without downtime, or if you're preparing for an event. If your skin is actively inflamed, sunburnt, or you have an active cold sore or open lesion, we'll ask you to reschedule.
-
The treatment takes around 30 to 45 minutes and most people find it genuinely relaxing — it feels like a cool, gentle vacuum moving across the skin. You can ask to see the collection bottle at the end, which shows exactly what came out of your skin. Mild pinkness can last up to an hour afterwards, and skin feels refreshed and hydrated for up to a week.
Three levels are available: Express for a targeted treatment, Deluxe adding a booster serum and LED, and Platinum, our most comprehensive, which begins with a lymphatic drainage stage. For lasting change rather than a one-off glow, we'd recommend monthly or bi-monthly appointments.
3D Hydro Facial
Deep cleansing and intense hydration in one treatment, using water and vacuum rather than abrasion. The 3D Hydro Facial lifts away dead skin, oil and pore debris while flooding the skin with active serums — leaving it clearer, softer and noticeably brighter, with nothing to recover from.
-
A handpiece delivers a stream of water and active solution to the skin while gentle vacuum suction lifts away dead cells, oil and the debris sitting inside pores. Because the exfoliation is done by fluid rather than by abrasive particles, it is comfortable enough for most skin types and doesn't leave the skin raw. Cleansing, exfoliation, extraction and hydration happen in a single pass, and nourishing serums are infused as the treatment progresses.
Three levels are available, building from a focused express treatment through to our most comprehensive, which adds further stages for a more complete result.
-
This treatment suits congested skin, blackheads, enlarged pores, dullness and dehydration, and is a good choice if your skin is too sensitive for grittier forms of exfoliation. It's well-suited to a first advanced facial, and to anyone who wants a visible improvement without committing to downtime.
It isn't suitable over active infection, broken or sunburnt skin, or an active cold sore. If you have significant acne, rosacea or very reactive skin, we'll assess at consultation and may recommend something more targeted.
-
The treatment is comfortable and often described as feeling like cool water moving across the skin, with a light suction sensation. There's no discomfort and no downtime — skin may look slightly pink for a short while, then simply looks clearer and more hydrated.
Results are visible the same day, which makes this a popular choice before an event. As with any deep-cleansing facial, a regular schedule holds the improvement better than an occasional one-off; your practitioner will suggest a rhythm at consultation.
Guinot Hydradermie
Guinot has been refining the facial for decades, and Hydradermie is its signature: a treatment that uses a gentle electrical current to carry active ingredients further into the skin than hands alone can reach. Deeply hydrating, visibly brightening, and finished with a massage that's reason enough to book it.
-
Hydradermie works by ionisation. Active gels are chosen for your skin and then carried beyond the surface using a low-level current delivered through two rollers — allowing the ingredients to work where they can actually make a difference rather than sitting on top of the skin. The treatment then works through cleansing, exfoliation, extraction where needed, and a thorough massage, finishing with a mask matched to your skin's needs.
Two Hydradermie treatments are available: Hydradermie 1000, our complete hydrating and brightening facial, and Hydradermie 1000 LIFT, which adds a lifting stage to work on firmness and facial contour.
We also offer Age Summum, Guinot's targeted anti-ageing facial, built around vitamin C to address fine lines, loss of firmness and dull, tired-looking skin.
-
Hydradermie suits skin that is dehydrated, dull, congested or simply tired, and is gentle enough for most skin types. Choose the LIFT if firmness and definition are your main concern, and Age Summum if you're focused on fine lines and radiance.
It isn't suitable if you are pregnant, have epilepsy, or have a pacemaker or other electrical implant, as the treatment uses a current. Please tell us about any of these before booking.
-
A thoroughly relaxing treatment. You may feel a very faint tingling from the current, and occasionally a slight metallic taste — both are normal. There is no discomfort and no downtime.
Skin looks brighter and feels softer immediately, and the effect of the lifting stage is visible on the day, which makes this a good pre-event choice. For a lasting change in skin condition, a course works better than a single visit.
CACI
CACI has been called the non-surgical facelift for long enough that the name has stuck — and it holds up. Tiny microcurrents lift and tone the muscles underneath the skin while working on the surface at the same time, so the face looks firmer and more defined without anything injected and without a day of recovery.
-
CACI works with microcurrent — a very low-level electrical current, close to the body's own, delivered through two handheld probes. It is used to tone and re-educate the facial muscles that give the face its structure, lifting and firming areas that have softened over time. The same technology is combined with LED light therapy and with targeted mask treatments to work on skin quality alongside muscle tone: hydration, fine lines and radiance.
Treatments range from a full CACI Facial through to CACI Ultimate, our most complete, and Super CACI. Shorter, targeted treatments concentrate on a single area — a jowl lift, wrinkle revolution for individual lines, or eye revive for the eye area. CACI Microdermabrasion adds a resurfacing stage, and a range of add-ons can be included in any treatment.
-
CACI suits you if you're looking for lift, firmness and definition rather than resurfacing — particularly around the jawline, jowls, cheeks and eye area. It's a strong option if you want visible results without needles, acids or downtime, and it works well as a maintenance treatment alongside other things.
It isn't suitable if you are pregnant, have epilepsy, or have a pacemaker or any other electrical implant. Tell us about any metal pins or plates in the face, and about any recent injectable treatments, as we may need to adjust timings.
-
The treatment is comfortable and non-invasive. Most people feel nothing at all from the microcurrent; some notice a faint tingling or a metallic taste, both of which are normal and harmless. There is no downtime whatsoever.
You will see a result after a single treatment, which is why CACI is popular before events — but it is fundamentally a course treatment. Muscle tone builds cumulatively, so a course of regular sessions followed by monthly maintenance is what produces lasting change. Your practitioner will recommend a schedule at consultation.
Radio Frequency & Light Fusion
Two technologies doing different jobs in one appointment: radio frequency warms the deeper layers of the skin to tighten what's there and prompt new collagen, while light fusion works on tone, clarity and inflammation at the surface. Firmer, smoother, more even skin — with nothing to recover from.
-
Radio frequency delivers energy that gently heats the deeper layers of the skin. That controlled warmth causes existing collagen fibres to contract, producing an immediate tightening effect, and stimulates the production of new collagen over the following weeks for a change that continues after you leave.
Light fusion uses specific wavelengths of light to work at the surface — supporting the skin's repair processes, calming inflammation and improving tone and clarity. Used together, one treats structure and the other treats condition.
Both are also available as add-ons to other facial treatments if you'd like to build them into something else.
-
This treatment suits you if your concern is early laxity, loss of firmness, fine lines or uneven tone, and you want to address it without needles or downtime. It works well as a maintenance treatment and combines comfortably with other facials.
It isn't suitable if you are pregnant, have a pacemaker or other electrical implant, or have metal implants in the treatment area. Tell us about any photosensitivity caused by a medical condition or medication, and about any recent injectable treatments, as we may need to leave time between them.
-
Comfortable and non-invasive. You'll feel a pleasant, building warmth from the radio frequency as the handpiece moves across the skin — most people find it relaxing. Protective eyewear is worn for the light stage.
Skin often looks a little firmer and more refreshed straight away, with the more meaningful change developing over the following weeks as new collagen forms. Because collagen builds gradually, a course delivers considerably more than a single session; your practitioner will recommend how many.
Dermalux® LED Therapy
No needles, no acids, no discomfort and nothing to recover from — Dermalux® uses clinically proven wavelengths of light to prompt the skin to repair itself. It's the treatment we reach for to calm inflammation, clear breakouts and build radiance, and the one we most often add alongside another to speed healing.
-
Dermalux® uses Tri-Wave™ LED technology — red, blue and near-infrared light, used alone or in combination. This is phototherapy: light at specific wavelengths stimulates processes beneath the skin rather than heating or ablating it.
Red light targets fine lines, wrinkles and uneven tone, refines pores and boosts circulation.
Blue light targets and destroys acne-causing bacteria and reduces inflammation.
Near-infrared penetrates deepest, for more significant ageing or inflammation.
Together they increase circulation and blood flow, support wound healing, and activate collagen and elastin production.
-
Dermalux® is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, and is one of the few treatments with genuinely no downtime — which makes it a good option if other advanced facials feel like a step too far. It's particularly effective for acne and inflammation, redness, and for supporting recovery after peels, microneedling or injectables.
It isn't suitable if you have photosensitivity caused by a medical condition or by medication you're taking. Please tell us about any medication before booking.
-
Sessions last around 30 minutes. It's completely non-invasive and entirely painless — most people find it deeply relaxing. The lamp produces no heat of its own, though you may feel a gentle warmth as circulation increases. You'll wear protective eyewear throughout. There's no UV, so it will not tan your skin.
A course of around six regular sessions is recommended for meaningful change, though a single session before an event is perfectly worthwhile. Improvements appear naturally as collagen and elastin production increases; for acne, expect breakouts to reduce in both number and severity over a course.
Chemical Peels
A peel is one of the most direct ways to change the surface of your skin — but the acid matters less than how it's delivered. We use the Enerpeel® system, which carries active acids to the depth where they do their work while protecting the surface, meaning real resurfacing with far less of the rawness people associate with peeling.
-
A chemical peel works by controlled exfoliation: an acid solution loosens the bonds between dead surface cells so they shed, prompting the skin to renew itself underneath. Enerpeel® uses a carrier system that delivers the acid to its target depth with less irritation at the surface than a conventional peel.
Three Enerpeel® formulations are available, and your practitioner will select between them:
Enerpeel® MA (mandelic acid) — the gentlest. A larger molecule that penetrates slowly and evenly, making it well suited to pigmentation and to sensitive or redness-prone skin.
Enerpeel® SA (salicylic acid) — oil-soluble, so it works inside the pore itself. The choice for congestion, blackheads, oiliness and active breakouts.
Enerpeel® PA (pyruvic acid) — the most resurfacing of the three. Targets texture, fine lines, sun damage and acne scarring.
We also offer the Jessner peel, a classic combination formula that works deeper than the Enerpeel® range. It's reserved for skin that needs more significant resurfacing — stubborn pigmentation, sun damage and acne scarring — and involves more visible peeling, so it's planned around your diary rather than booked casually.
-
Peels suit skin concerned with dullness, uneven texture, pigmentation, congestion, breakouts or early lines. Because there are several formulations at several strengths, this is one of the most adaptable treatments we offer — including for skin that has reacted badly to peels elsewhere.
It isn't suitable over active infection, broken skin, an active cold sore, or on recently sunburnt or freshly tanned skin. Tell us if you're pregnant or breastfeeding, if you're prone to cold sores, or if you're taking any medication that affects sun sensitivity, as these change what we can use.
-
Your practitioner starts with a skin analysis and chooses the formulation and strength accordingly — first-time peels are always started conservatively. During application you'll feel warmth, tingling or a mild sting, which settles quickly. Afterwards the skin looks slightly flushed.
The honest part: dry, flaky skin is a normal and expected side effect, lasting anywhere from one to ten days depending on the depth and intensity of the peel. Peels reward a course rather than a single visit, and we'd usually plan a series with your practitioner advising on spacing.
Microneedling
Microneedling works by a deliberate paradox: creating thousands of controlled micro-injuries so the skin responds by rebuilding itself. The result is firmer, smoother skin with improved texture and softened scarring — produced by your own collagen rather than anything added to your face.
-
Fine needles create thousands of microscopic channels in the skin. Each is small enough to close quickly, but together they trigger the skin's natural wound-healing response — stimulating fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin over the following weeks. The channels also allow active ingredients to be delivered far deeper than they could otherwise reach, which is why microneedling is often paired with growth factors for a stronger result. Treatment is available for the face, or face and neck together.
-
Microneedling suits you if you're looking to improve skin texture, firmness, enlarged pores, fine lines, or acne scarring and other scarring. It works on all skin tones, which is not true of every resurfacing treatment.
It isn't suitable over active acne, active infection, an active cold sore, eczema or psoriasis in the treatment area, or if you have a history of keloid scarring. Tell us if you're pregnant or breastfeeding, if you're prone to cold sores, or if you're taking or have recently taken oral acne medication.
-
Numbing cream is applied first and left to take effect, so the treatment itself is very tolerable — most people describe a vibrating or prickling sensation rather than pain.
Afterwards, expect your skin to look red — similar to moderate sunburn — for around 24 hours, and to feel sensitive for about 48. Makeup isn't recommended while the skin is healing. Results build over several weeks as new collagen forms, and continue improving with a course. Your practitioner will recommend how many sessions your concern needs and how far apart to space them.
Consultation
A consultation is the first step to discovering the right treatments for you. Whether you're considering medical aesthetics, exploring advanced skincare, or unsure where to start, our experienced team will take the time to understand your concerns, goals, and lifestyle to create a bespoke plan tailored to you. From injectable treatments and skin rejuvenation to signature facials, our consultations are relaxed, honest, and pressure free, designed to help you feel confident in the treatments you choose.
Pre-Care
-
Avoid other resurfacing treatments, waxing, threading, electrolysis and hair removal creams on the area to be treated. Avoid sunbeds and self-tan, and don't book a treatment on recently sunburnt skin. If you take blood-thinning over-the-counter medication such as aspirin or ibuprofen, avoid it before microneedling unless your GP or specialist has prescribed it for you.
-
Stop topical retinol, retinoids, glycolic acid and any other "anti-ageing" actives.
-
Come with clean skin and no makeup if you can. Allow extra time for microneedling appointments, as numbing cream needs to be applied and left to work.
-
If you have previously suffered from facial cold sores, peels and microneedling can trigger another eruption — please let us know if you are prone, as we may need to arrange a course of antiviral tablets beforehand. Tell us if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, if you take any medication affecting sun sensitivity, if you have epilepsy, a pacemaker or any electrical implant or metal implants in the treatment area, or if you have taken oral acne medication in the last twelve months. Please ask us about anything you're unsure of before your appointment.
Aftercare
-
Keep the skin clean and leave it alone — no makeup, no active skincare, and try not to touch your face. Let any flaking or shedding happen on its own.
-
Avoid skincare actives such as retinoids and exfoliating acids. Minimise exercise, alcohol, saunas, steam rooms and swimming pools while the skin is settling.
-
After peels and microneedling, do not apply makeup or use skin actives such as retinoids and exfoliating acids. Some deeper treatments require you to abstain from these for longer than 48 hours, so please check with your treating practitioner.
-
Wear SPF every day, without exception, and stay out of direct sun. Freshly resurfaced skin burns far more easily than usual, and sun exposure is the quickest way to undo the result you've paid for.
Please contact us immediately if you:
Have blistering, weeping or broken skin in the treated area
Have redness or swelling that is worsening rather than settling after 48 hours
Have skin that is hot to the touch, or any sign of infection
Develop a cold sore outbreak following treatment
Have severe or increasing pain
Have fever and/or chills
