The Hollywood favourite iS Clinical Fire & Ice resurfacing treatment is a results-led treatment that bridges the gap between a mild facial & an invasive peel.

The treatment is designed to rapidly & safely resurface the skin, treat problematic skin, reduce fine lines, smooth & encourage cellular renewal. It is a multi-step treatment with two professional treatment masques combined with carefully selected iS Clinical pharmaceutical grade products to optimise results.

This treatment will leave you feeling rejuvenated & your skin glowing - perfect for spoiling yourself or a loved one or before a special event.

 FAQs

  • The first step of the facial is to throughly cleanse the skin with iS Clinical Cleansing Complex.

    This is followed by the ‘Fire’ part of the facial - an Intensive Resurfacing Masque combining sugar cane extract (glycolic acid) with retinol (vitamin A) & niacinamide (vitamin B3) to provide rapid & controlled exfoliation without peeling or downtime.

    The skin is then neutralised.

    The next stage is the ‘Ice’ Rejuvenating Masque which infuses skin with hyaluronic acid & antioxidants to soothe, reduce inflammation, stimulate collagen synthesis & boost hydration after resurfacing of the skin.

    A unique combination of pharmaceutical grade serums & complexes are then applied to leave the skin looking hydrated & radiant.

  • Not at all. It is likely you will feel a pleasant tingling & warmth whilst the Intensive Resurfacing ‘Fire’ Masque is in contact with the skin. This can increase after the masque is removed but is quickly soothed after neutralisation & application of the Rejuvenating ‘Ice’ Masque.

AlumierMD® chemical peels

A chemical peel is a treatment used to improve skin tone, texture & radiance.

It involves applying acids to the skin to lower the pH. This loosens the connections between healthy & dead skin cells, inducing exfoliation & stimulating new cell growth. This process causes superficial layers of the skin to peel off, revealing a smoother & more radiant complexion.

Chemical peels improve skin texture & firmness, decreasing fine lines & wrinkles. Peels also even out skin tone, improve acne-prone skin & reduce pore size appearance.

I offer the exclusive selection of AlumierMD® peels, known for their excellent results & safety profile.

Procedure time

45 minutes.

Results

Visible from 48-72 hours.
