If you've never had a professional facial, it's normal to wonder what you're walking into. Here's what we tell every first-time guest.
Come as you are
No need to wear makeup, and no need to take it off at home first. The cleanse is part of the treatment.
Pause strong products for a few days
If you use retinoids or exfoliating acids, mention it when you book. Your aesthetician will tell you whether to pause them before your visit.
Tell us about your skin
Every facial starts with a short skin consultation. Sensitivities, recent treatments and what's bothering you all shape what we do.

Expect to relax
Facials happen in a private suite, made to feel like a retreat. Many guests nearly fall asleep.
Plan for after
After a HydraFacial there's no downtime. You'll leave with SPF on, and you're welcome to take your time over tea in the lounge.
