How does it work?
The treatment uses a device that combines gentle exfoliation with a waterbased vortex action to cleanse and extract impurities from the pores, while simultaneously infusing hydrating and nourishing serums into the skin. It's like a deep-cleanse, exfoliation and hydration treatment in one — thorough but gentle. Our version is the Premie Derma Facial.
What does it help with?
It's well suited to: Dull, tired or dehydrated skin Congestion and a general "deep clean" A radiant, refreshed, hydrated glow Maintenance for healthy skin, or a pre-event boost It supports skin quality and radiance with no downtime — but it's a maintenance and glow treatment, not a medical treatment for conditions like active acne or pigmentation, which need a dermatology plan. Individual results vary.
Is it suitable for all skin types?
It's generally gentle and suits a wide range of skin types, including sensitive skin, because it's hydrating rather than aggressive — which makes it popular in Dubai's drying climate. As always, your therapist assesses your skin first and tailors the serums and settings. If you have a specific concern or very reactive skin, they'll advise what's appropriate.
Is there downtime, and how often should I have it?
Downtime is essentially none — skin usually looks bright and refreshed straight away, which is a big part of the appeal (and why it's popular before events). For maintenance, many people have it regularly (for example, monthly), but your therapist will suggest a rhythm based on your skin and goals. Like most skin treatments, consistency gives the best ongoing benefit.
How does it compare to other facials and treatments?
It's a gentle, hydrating "glow and deep-clean" treatment — distinct from a carbon laser facial (geared to oily/congested skin via laser) or treatments that work deeper like RF microneedling. Many people combine or alternate facials with other treatments as part of a skin routine. Your therapist or clinician can help you build the right mix. Sun protection afterwards is sensible, as always in Dubai.
