Services

The slow facial, 75 minutes

A facial with time in it, for the visit where you would like nothing to be rushed.

  1. 01

    Step 1: Skin check

    About 10 minutes. We look at your skin under the lamp and ask what has changed since your last visit.

  2. 02

    Step 2: Cleanse and prepare

    About 15 minutes. Cleansing, then a gentle exfoliation chosen at the skin check, and extractions where they help.

  3. 03

    Step 3: Massage and mask

    About 35 minutes. A slow massage of the face, neck and shoulders while a mask sets.

  4. 04

    Step 4: Finish and note

    About 15 minutes. Moisturizer, sun protection for the walk out, your note, and your next date.

Good to know

Around your visit

  • Consultation first

    A peel or dermaplaning is an add-on we agree on with you at a consultation, not on the day.

  • Around your visit

    We tell you at booking what to pause beforehand, such as exfoliating products. Afterward, keep to a gentle routine and wear sun protection outdoors.

  • Ask your doctor first

    If you are pregnant, use a prescription skin medicine, or have a skin condition a doctor is managing, ask your doctor before you add a peel or an LED light.

Results vary. Skin changes with the weather, your routine and the sun you have had, so we note what we see and promise no outcome.
