The Medik8 Expert Facial is a professional deep cleansing treatment designed to refresh and rebalance the skin. It typically includes thorough cleansing, gentle exfoliation, steam and extractions where suitable, followed by targeted massage and professional-grade skincare to leave the skin feeling clean, hydrated, and revitalised.
Deep cleansing facials are suitable for most skin types, particularly those experiencing congestion, breakouts, or dull skin. Suitability will be assessed during your consultation to ensure the treatment is appropriate for your skin.
Many clients benefit from a deep cleansing facial every 4–6 weeks, depending on their skin type, concerns, and home skincare routine.
The Crystal Retinal Facial is a Medik8 treatment focused on improving skin renewal, texture, and clarity. It uses vitamin A-based technology and targeted active ingredients, which are carefully massaged into the skin to support skin rejuvenation and overall skin quality.
The strength of Crystal Retinal is tailored to each individual and can be gradually increased over a course of sessions, depending on skin tolerance and treatment goals.
Chemical peels use professional exfoliating solutions to remove dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, helping to improve texture, tone, and clarity. The strength and type of peel are selected based on your skin type and concerns.
Downtime varies depending on the type and strength of the peel. Some clients experience mild redness or light flaking for a few days, while others may have minimal visible downtime. This will be discussed during your consultation.
A course of 4 to 6 treatments is often recommended for best results. The number of sessions will depend on your skin goals and the type of peel used.
Some treatments may cause mild redness or sensitivity immediately afterwards, which usually settles within a few hours to a couple of days, depending on the treatment.
In most cases, it is recommended to avoid makeup for at least 24 hours following advanced skin treatments. You will be given personalised aftercare advice after your appointment.
Yes. Facials and advanced skin treatments can often be combined with treatments such as skin boosters, microneedling, or anti-wrinkle injections as part of a personalised skin plan. This will be discussed during your consultation.
BioRePeel is a professional skin treatment designed to exfoliate, improve skin texture, and enhance overall skin quality. It is often referred to as a “no-downtime peel” and can be suitable for clients looking to refresh their skin without significant recovery time.
For clients with acne-prone or congested skin, treatments such as BioRePeel and Medik8 Clarity peel can be used to help exfoliate the skin, reduce surface build-up, and improve overall skin clarity and texture.
These treatments focus on supporting healthy skin renewal and balancing the skin rather than providing a medical acne treatment. Suitability will always be assessed during your consultation to ensure the most appropriate option for your skin type and concerns.
A micro-needling facial is a skin treatment that uses fine needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin, helping to support natural skin renewal and improve overall texture and tone. It can be beneficial for concerns such as uneven skin texture, fine lines, enlarged pores, pigmentation and the appearance of scarring.
Many clients notice a healthy glow within a few days of treatment, with further improvements in skin texture and tone developing over the following weeks as the skin renews.
You may experience mild redness or sensitivity following treatment, which usually settles within 24–48 hours. Aftercare guidance will be provided to support skin recovery.
