Anti-Ageing Facial Solution

Beauty Grace's Ice Breaker

Begin your treatment with a comforting Beauty Grace Hand & Foot rub down with a freshly steamed towel, to help loosen your senses. Followed by a brief back massage specifically designed for deep relaxation.

Professional Cleanse

Highly concentrated professional cleansers that are water soluble, each thoroughly cleansing a specific skin imbalance. These cleansers are pH balanced, thus never drying the skin, and do not leave the skin feeling "tight". Our cleanse is used together with a facial steamer, for added effectiveness.

A touch of tone

A professional toner is applied to the skin, following cleansing to help add further hydration to the skin and more importantly, to increase product penetration and to even out porosity.

A Comprehensive Skin Analysis

A clear picture of the current state of your skin, from which treatment can be made by our skin therapist is established. In almost all cases, skin analysis allows our skin therapists to take control of their skin care in the right way, and by detecting any possible issues early, thus picking up underlying conditions you might not have known you had, such as broken capillaries and pigmentation.

In addition, your skin type will also be determined. This is an important part of assessing whether or not your skin care regime is appropriate for you.

Exfoliation

Exfoliating crystal and melting gel based on disaccharide grains are used to prepare the skin and eliminate dead skin cells.

Professional Extraction

Comedone extractions prevent future breakouts and our professional extraction technique prevents skin damage and scarring. This procedure removes comedones thus minimising the impact to the health of the skin.

A World-Class Facial Massage

This technique encourages blood flow, stimulates sebaceous production, increases muscle tone, detoxifies acid waste in the tissues and muscles, thus relaxing the nerves and lends itself towards the oxygenation of the skin.

Not forgetting of course, this just happens to be the most rewarding, pampering and relaxing part of the treatment.

A Premium Mask

Used to intensify the results of your treatment, this mask comes in a form of a "peel-off" mask which is made of a thick layer of hydro-restructuring concentrate serum to maximise the moisture holding capacity in the skin cells. The cooling effect has an active astringent which leaves the skin soft, luminous and calm.

Superior Moisture

A specific professional moisturiser for your skin type is applied onto the skin, to aid with the skin's natural defences against the environment while regulating moisture loss.

Sun Protection

Develop by Australian CSIRO scientists, the sun shield SPF30 formulation offers greater skin protection, and is less likely to irritate the skin vulnerable to UV damage. A naturally tinted, broad-spectrum sunscreen with encapsulated, micronised oxides to protect the skin from harmful UV rays in a gentle formula designed for maximum skin tolerance.

The harsh facts...

The truth about aging skin, is that as we grow older, our skin experiences several significant changes. The skin's natural support system begins to break down, causing fine lines, wrinkles and loss of elasticity. Additionally, the skin's surface begins to show dark and light spots, roughness and redness. Even though our skin does naturally age, research has shown that 90% of premature again is due to harmful environmental elements, particularly UV radiation or sun exposure, but also stress, pollution, smoking, pesticides and other modern day hazards.

It is possible to have prematurely aged skin even if the tell-tale wrinkles and lines are not visible. By the time most people are 18, the skin has absorbed more than enough UV-A and UV-B rays, the most damaging of environmental aggressors. In fact, daily outdoor activities, from support to even a simple stroll on a cloudy day can amount to years of UV exposure. Our skin never forgets this exposure, which can cause skin to look older than our actual years.

Expert guidance for Aging skin

Professional treatments or services ensure that your skin is always kept in top condition. Regularly seeing a skincare professional ensures that you get the right advice about your skin as it changes. We all have a basic skin type, but as skincare expert, we recognise that your complexion can change from day to day due to changes in environment, hormones and lifestyle. Don't let your skin make you look older than you feel. Use key ingredients such as Vitamin A, Glycolic acid and Hyaluronic Acid to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and improving skin texture. Keep your skin well hydrated by using moisturisers that balances skin lipids and natural moisture levels. Achieve the highest level of results possible with professional peels to visit your skin care professional.

Progression...

• 20s, in general skin is smooth, bright and firm. Depending upon UV exposure and skin condition, there may be a few dehydration or expression lines around the eyes and mouth (the first signs of premature aging). However, skin cells are regenerating every 14-25 days, which helps keep skin looking healthy.
• 30s, cell turnover begins to slow to around 30 plus days in this decade, which leads to dullness and a less even skin tone. Skin may be slightly drier and more dehydrated than it was in the 20s as oil production slows and barrier lipids reduce. Wrinkles are more evident and are prominent around the eyes and mouth(smile lines). Elasticity and skin turgor begin to diminish as collagen and elastin reduce by 1% per year.
• 40+s, a combination of UV exposure and a declining amount of estrogen cause erosion to the skin's underlying support structure, and also injibit its ability to retain moisture. Skin experiences a loss of elasticity and firmness, is thinner and often dehydrated. Wrinkles are deeper and more prominent on the entire facial landscape, and skin may be sagging. Hyperpigmentation is also prominent during these decades.
