What is involved in an Aqua Exfoliation Facial?
The treatment begins with a thorough cleanse and skin assessment.
A specialised handpiece is then used to gently exfoliate the surface of the skin while simultaneously using water-based suction to help remove dead skin cells, excess oil and superficial impurities from the pores.
Hydrating or skin-supportive solutions may then be infused into the skin according to your individual needs.
The treatment is generally comfortable, with most patients experiencing a gentle cooling, cleansing or suction sensation.
How can an Aqua Exfoliation Facial improve your skin concerns?
The treatment combines controlled exfoliation with gentle extraction and hydration.
Removing accumulated dead skin cells from the surface can improve skin smoothness and allow skincare products to be applied more effectively. Gentle suction can assist in removing superficial congestion, while hydrating solutions help support the skin's moisture balance.
The result is typically a smoother, fresher and more hydrated complexion with improved radiance.
