As maintaining the skin is the key to looking younger than our age, it becomes increasingly important to find a facial treatment that not only restores your skin’s youth and elasticity, but also ensures that it is well suited to tour particular skin type.
Facials can range from microdermabrasions and LED treatments, to chemical peels and classic facials. Whilst some of these terms may sound scary and it can be overwhelming to know which is the right one for your skin, we breakdown each type of facial treatment and what they actually mean.
The most popular types of facials in SIngapore can be split into these widely available categories:
Specially formulated with active ingredients such as vitamin C and retinol, skin brightening treatments work to reduce signs of dark spots, stubborn pigmentation and dull skin tones by inhibiting melanin production in the skin.
This type of treatment is widely sought after in a bid to achieve the perfect Korean “Glass Skin” complexion, depicting an even-toned, smooth and textureless complexion, comparable to glass.
Through the use of lifting massage techniques and non-invasive treatment procedures, anti-aging facials generally rely on gentle exfoliation to first rid the skin of dead skin cells, followed by the infusion of specialised ingredients chosen specifically for their anti-aging properties.
With a focus on rehydration and improving the base moisture levels of the skin, this type of facial typically includes cleansing, exfoliating, and steaming procedures before bathing the skin in a moisturising face mask. One of the best facials for sensitive skin, this treatment revitalises the skin while producing a natural supple glow.
A procedure focused on the use of LED light therapy to penetrate the skin for skin conditions including acne and hyperpigmentation, this treatment is generally suited for all skin types and can be customised to cater to individual needs. It is expected to improve overall skin texture, and reduce the occurrence of fine lines, wrinkles, acne, as well as eliminate symptoms caused by sun damage.
A cosmetic procedure involving the application of a chemical solution to remove dead skin cells from the skin, this type of facial is one of the preferred treatments for reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and acne scars. The expected result is an improvement in skin texture, less noticeable fine lines, and a more radiant appearance overall.
A non-invasive, mechanical exfoliation treatment, this type of facial removes the top layer of dead skin cells to reveal a smooth, bright complexion. Generally suitable for all skin types, the microdermabrasion procedure is well suited for reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and acne scars. It is also one of the preferred treatments for improving skin textures and evening out skin tones with minimal downtime, if any.
Aside from being relaxing, facials can also rejuvenate the face and mind. During a session, one usually has time to destress and focus on breathing in the moment while regaining confidence in the process of obtaining beautiful, healthy skin.
Facial sessions usually begin with a thorough cleanse, wherein oil, dirt and impurities are removed from the skin. This is usually followed up with the use of exfoliation techniques to further eliminate dead skin cells, thus improving the cell turnover process to promote the growth of newer and healthier looking skin.
Procedures involving chemical peels and dermabrasions can help target hyperpigmentation and skin discolouration by removing dead skin cells while promoting the growth of new skin cells. Additionally, avoiding sun exposure as much as possible will also help maintain overall treatment results.
Regular facial treatments with the use of specialised ingredients and techniques can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other obvious signs of aging to maintain a youthful appearance.
A facial massage can improve blood circulation in the face to enrich facial skin cells with more oxygen and vital nutrients, while helping the skin to expel toxins and waste. This process also helps to promote more radiant and youthful-looking skin with a natural glow.
Akin to full body massages, facial massages offer therapeutic benefits, and can also aid in reducing stress, improving sleep, and enhancing emotional well-being. This process helps to relax facial muscles while promoting healthy skin, and produces a rejuvenating effect.
Moisturising treatments encourage proper hydration in the epidermis, which is essential to prevent the skin from flaking and drying out. This also helps the skin to maintain a healthy complexion, and keeps the skin supple while reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Facials are a key component of a skin care regimen with the goal of exfoliating the skin before removing impurities and closing up opened pores. Depending on the selected treatment, a facial can focus on different aspects of skincare:
Triple Algae-rithm is a deeply hydrating treatment that repairs dry and tired skin through a rich dose of concentrated algae extracts full of healing minerals, to moisturise the skin from inside-out.
Ultra Replenishing is an ultrasonic facial treatment suitable for all skin types, that boosts the skin’s natural collagen production levels while producing age-defying results in just one session.
Wet Wet Wow is the ultimate hydrating treatment suitable for all skin types, that utilises an advanced 3-in-1 Wet Diamond hydradermabrasion technology to moisturise while removing impurities and congestants through gentle exfoliation.
Crystal Tonic is a painless diamond peel microdermabrasion procedure that removes impurities, while regenerating the skin for that crystal-clear glass skin look.
Star White Start Bright is highly recommended as a regular ritual to protect the skin’s natural radiance through the use of targeted massage techniques, and a concentrated dose of vitamin C, formulated to combat pigmentation and promote healthy collagen production.
Agent A16 is a treatment that improves skin clarity through the use of a specially formulated vitamin A16 booster concentrate, which boosts cell renewal to achieve a healthy, clear and blemish-free skin tone.
Stress Rescue is a double mask pampering treatment procedure that deeply relaxes, cleanses, and detoxes while soothing the skin to achieve a soft radiant glow.
Fragile Friendly is a gentle calming remedy for sensitive, inflamed skin that begins with a mineral-rich peel to gently slough away impurities. A nourishing collagen mask and calming serum is used to promote healing, and restore the skin’s natural microbiome to healthy levels.
The Mask Avenger is a clarifying treatment targeted at combating maskne and breakouts with an electric Skin Scrubber that effectively delivers ingredients deep into the skin’s layers, whilst removing impurities, bacteria, and oil build-up caused by frequent mask-wearing.
House Bungalow lifts the skin through the combination of an ultrasonic facial technique with botanical stem cell technology, to repair cell damage and stimulate collagen production for firmer, younger-looking skin.
Beam Me Up uses the Near Infrared Light (NIR) technology to penetrate the skin, stimulating increased collagen production for firmer, younger-looking skin.
Lift Off tightens and lifts the skin through the use of radio frequencies to stimulate the skin’s natural collagen production, while helping to promote skin laxity for more supple and radiant skin.
Gua Sha Facial begins with a relaxing TingSha bell ritual, followed by the use of a hot towel compress and a specially concocted antioxidant-rich herb blend to help lift, contour, and detox for an anti-aging effect.
Botox-like Peptide & Fill (BFF) firms, sculpts and tones the skin with a specially formulated cocktail of medical-grade serums and Botox-like peptides. This non-invasive technique allows the solution to penetrate deeper, plumping the skin from within to effectively reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
VPL Power effectively reduces the appearance of large pores, and balances out uneven skin tone through the use of non-invasive lasers and Variable Pulsed Light (VPL) energy pulses, which allows for a targeted treatment of sun-damaged, aging and pigmented skin.
Hand Pick is a micro-needling treatment that introduces bespoke skin solutions into the dermis through a collagen induction therapy (CIT) technique, ideal for reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scarring, and stubborn pigmentation.
Splash and Glow is a treatment that pushes Hyaluronic Acid deep into the skin, quenching dry skin with intense hydration from within using an iontophoresis diffusion system that strengthens the skin’s density, while plumping up fine lines for a healthy, youthful glow.
Watch Your Back is a deep-cleansing massage and moisturising hydradermabrasion treatment that removes impurities from the back, preventing backne outbreaks while leaving the skin soft and smooth from a strawberry massage cream and mineral mud mask.
How often you get a facial depends on your needs and the specific treatment. Some facials like micro-needling, brightening require multiple sessions spaced a few weeks apart for the best results. Classic or hydrating facials, on the other hand, can usually be done more frequently, up to a few times per month, depending on how your skin reacts to the services. If you’re unsure how often you should head in for a facial treatment, we suggest asking your therapist for their advice.
Not necessarily. Depending on the type of treatment and the intensity, trained, licensed aestheticians would tailor the treatment to suit each individual's pain levels.
Depending on the type of face treatment, some procedures may produce immediate visible results.
For women and men choosing the right facial will very much depend on your skin type and desired results. Spa Esprit’s facial therapists would be able to advise the most suitable treatment upon discussing your skin concerns with you and analysing your skin.
Absolutely! Facials are not only a relaxing experience, they are also a grooming ritual and can contribute greatly to self-esteem as well as personal hygiene amongst other benefits. There are many reasons why men should consider getting facials. Some of the benefits include:
Clearer skin: Facials can help to clear up breakouts and other complexion problems.
Relaxation: A facial is a relaxing experience that can help to reduce stress levels. Healing: facials can help relieve razor burn and irritated skin.
A more youthful appearance: Facials can help to reduce the signs of aging, such as wrinkles and fine lines.
Softer, smoother skin: The deep cleansing and exfoliation that is included in most facials can leave your skin feeling softer and smoother.
Improved circulation: Facials can help to improve blood circulation, which can lead to a healthy glow.
Yes, just be sure to inform your therapist of your skin concerns before commencing the session.
While the deep cleansing process during a facial treatment session may over-stimulate the skin in some cases and lead to temporary breakouts, the likelihood depends on the type of treatment engaged, as some treatments allow the skin to fully heal with no downtime experienced.
Depending on the type of treatment and individual skin sensitivity, some clients may observe temporary redness that will eventually go away.
It is best to avoid applying any makeup or beauty products at least 24 hours after a facial treatment session, as the pores are likely still open, and cosmetic products can clog, irritate or react to your skin, causing breakouts in some cases.
Depending on the type of treatment, it is advisable to allow up to 7 days for your skin to heal fully before attending any major event that requires a flawless complexion.
