At its core is a special 20% Salicylic Acid, 2% Glycolic Acid and 2% Lactic Acid formulation to decongest clogged pores and exfoliate dead skin cells to reveal your new brighter, fresher skin complexion buried underneath.
Salicylic Acid is an oil-soluble ingredient, which means it’ll get deep into your pores to clean them out and improve your overall complexion. For this reason this facial is particularly good at helping people who suffer with breakouts and adult acne.
The facial has 3 key steps:
- Your skin is thoroughly cleansed and dried before the active formulation is applied.
- Your practitioner will apply the first layer across your face and wait 30 to 60 seconds. You may feel a light prickly sensation. If you find it tolerable the practitioner may repeat the process once or twice.
- Your practitioner will neutralise the active formulation, dry your skin and then bath your face in Dermalux red and infrared light to stimulate the natural production of collagen and Vitamin D. A sensation which is sure to remind you of relaxing on a sunny beach.
During recovery there is superficial peeling / flaking with this facial for up to 1 week, which starts normally on day 2 or 3, but you can go about your normal activities and hardly notice it.
