The eye area deserves its own care

The skin around the eyes is several times thinner than on the rest of the face. It’s often where tiredness, puffiness and fine lines show first.

We include drainage movements and products suited to this area in our facials, and face Endermology can target puffiness and dark circles.

HIFU: high-intensity focused ultrasound

HIFU is a non-surgical treatment that tightens, smooths and firms the skin. Ultrasound energy quickly and precisely warms the deeper layers of the treated skin.

The heat creates tiny areas of “thermal injury” that put the body into repair mode. It then produces new collagen and elastin, firming the skin from within.

  • Sagging lower face and jawline
  • Fine lines and loss of firmness
  • Neck and chin contour

Microdermabrasion

This non-surgical treatment renews the surface of the skin by gently removing dead cells. Skin looks smoother, brighter and younger.

Painless, low-risk and with no downtime: you can go back to your day right away.

  • Dull skin and uneven texture
  • Enlarged pores and small marks
  • Preparing the skin for other treatments

A short series of sessions, 1 to 2 weeks apart, usually gives the best results.

After a facial

  • Apply SPF 30 or higher every day.
  • Avoid sauna, steam room and pool for 24 to 48 hours.
  • Pause scrubs and exfoliating products for a few days.
  • Keep your skin well moisturised.

Frequently asked questions

Which facial should I choose?

You don’t need to know in advance. At your consultation we assess your skin and suggest the best treatment, on its own or combined.

Does HIFU hurt?

You feel warmth and brief tingling in some areas, especially near the bone. Settings are adjusted to your comfort during the session.

What’s the difference between microdermabrasion and a peel?

Microdermabrasion mechanically removes dead surface cells. A fruit acid peel works chemically and a little more intensely. The choice depends on your skin’s thickness and sensitivity.

How often should I get a facial?

Once a month roughly follows the skin’s renewal cycle. For a specific goal, a closer series may be suggested at first.

Can I wear makeup after a facial?

Ideally, let your skin breathe for the rest of the day, especially after a peel or microdermabrasion.

Do you also offer face Endermology?

Yes, the LPG facial is described on our LPG Endermology page.
