We use the advanced Byonik pulse-triggered laser system, which delivers hydration at the cellular level.

Collagen-Boosting Facials: SkinPen Microneedling and Morpheus8
Many patients often visit our Knightsbridge clinic for our collagen-boosting facials for their highly effective results. Using SkinPen Microneedling, we create micro-injuries that trigger your skin’s natural healing process, boosting collagen production to reduce fine lines and improve skin texture.
For more intensive results, Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to penetrate deeper layers of the skin. This treatment is ideal for those looking to firm and tighten their skin, achieving noticeable results without the need for invasive procedures.
Signature Anti-Pollution Facial
London’s high pollution levels, particularly in areas like Mayfair, can significantly affect the skin. Our Signature Facial is the go-to Anti-Pollution Facial that detoxifies and protects your skin from environmental damage using a blend of antioxidants and nourishing ingredients. This bespoke treatment deeply cleanses, removes impurities, and restores radiance, using products such as our Anti-Pollution Cleanser and Pollution Defence Cream making it the perfect solution for clients seeking rejuvenation and long-lasting protection.
How to Prepare for a Facial: Steps for Optimal Results
Preparing for a facial ensures that your skin reaps the maximum benefits from the treatment. Here’s how you can get ready:
Avoid Exfoliating a Few Days Before
Refrain from using strong exfoliators (especially chemical exfoliants like AHAs or BHAs) for at least 3-5 days before your facial. This will prevent over-exfoliation, allowing your aesthetician to assess your natural skin texture and treat it accordingly.
Hydrate Your Skin
Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your appointment. Well-hydrated skin responds better to treatments, absorbs products more efficiently, and ensures a smoother, more glowing complexion after your facial.
Skip Heavy Makeup
On the day of your facial, avoid wearing heavy makeup. While the facial will involve cleansing, keeping your skin makeup-free will allow your aesthetician to assess your skin’s natural condition more easily and ensure a more effective treatment.
Communicate Skin Concerns
Make sure to communicate any specific skin concerns, allergies, or sensitivities with your aesthetician before the facial. This will help them tailor the treatment to your unique skin needs and avoid any potential reactions.
Avoid Sun Exposure
Limit sun exposure for at least a few days before your facial, as sunburned or irritated skin is more sensitive and could react negatively to certain treatments. Wear a broad-spectrum SPF to protect your skin before and after the appointment.
Skip Retinol and Active Ingredients
Avoid using retinol, strong serums, or any potent active ingredients like acids or peels for 3-5 days prior to your facial. These products can make your skin more sensitive, potentially leading to irritation during your treatment.
Stay Relaxed and Open-Minded
Prepare mentally by staying open to your aesthetician’s suggestions. They may recommend products or techniques you haven’t tried before, and keeping an open mind will help you benefit from their expertise.
By following these steps, you ensure that your skin is well-prepared for your facial, allowing for optimal results and a smoother, more luxurious experience.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How long do the results from Morpheus8 last?
Results from Morpheus8 typically last between 12-18 months, depending on the individual and their skin’s natural aging process. Maintenance treatments every 12 months can help prolong the effects.
Is there any downtime after a SkinPen Microneedling facial?
There is minimal downtime after SkinPen Microneedling. Most clients experience slight redness and mild swelling for 24-48 hours, but this subsides quickly, allowing you to resume normal activities shortly after the treatment.
Is Skinpen a medically approved device?
Yes, SkinPen is an FDA-approved microneedling device. It is the first microneedling tool to receive FDA approval, ensuring that it meets rigorous safety and efficacy standards for use in skincare treatments. The device is medically approved for improving the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars by stimulating the skin’s natural collagen production through controlled micro-injuries.
This approval makes SkinPen a trusted option for clients looking for clinical results in a safe, regulated treatment environment.
