About the treatment

A deep clean for a hard-to-reach area.

Our Signature Back Facial gives the skin on your back a deep cleanse and exfoliation. It’s a hard area to reach in the shower, so this treatment lets us target specific concerns and leave your back feeling smooth and refreshed.

Every treatment is tailored to your skin. It includes a cleanse, exfoliation, an enzyme treatment with steam, microdermabrasion and booster serums selected for your skin, with extractions only where needed. Both options finish with LED light therapy. The standard option includes a mask, and the Back Facial with Peel adds a peel, with a mask where appropriate.

Good for

  • Clogged pores and blackheads
  • Breakouts on the back
  • Dryness and rough texture
  • Uneven skin tone and pigmentation

Results vary from person to person. Some clients have mild redness for a few hours afterwards.

Preparation and aftercare

Look after your skin.

Before your appointment

  • Tell us about any medications, supplements and medical conditions before your treatment.
  • Pause skincare that can make skin more sensitive, such as retinol, exfoliants and acids, 5–7 days before. If you use a prescription skin treatment, check with your prescriber before pausing it.
  • Avoid the sun for at least 24 hours before.

After your appointment

  • Exercise and heat: no exercise, saunas, hot showers or swimming for 24 hours.
  • Sun: avoid direct sunlight, sunbeds and solariums for at least 24 hours, and use SPF every day as part of your routine.
  • Active skincare: no active ingredients, such as retinol, on the treated skin for 3 days. Hydrating, reparative products are best.
  • Hydration: drink plenty of water.
  • Back Facial with Peel: your therapist will confirm any additional aftercare for the peel.
  • Don’t touch or pick at any scabs or flaking skin, as this can cause scarring. Contact us if you have any concerns after your treatment.

Microdermabrasion removes the top layer of dead skin, so your skin is more sensitive to the sun for a while afterwards.

FAQs

Good questions.

Does this treatment suit me?

Suitability is assessed individually, and the treatment is tailored to your skin and concerns. Each treatment includes a cleanse, exfoliation, an enzyme treatment with steam, microdermabrasion and booster serums, with extractions only where needed.

How often should I have it?

We suggest every 4 weeks, to keep the skin on your back clean and hydrated-looking.

Is there any downtime?

There’s usually little to no downtime. Some redness settles within a few hours, and if extractions are needed, any marks can take a few days to settle. Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun afterwards, so follow the aftercare advice.

Can I add a peel?

Yes. The Back Facial with Peel is $450 and includes a peel, a mask where appropriate, and LED. The standard Back Facial is $350 and includes a mask and LED. Both are 75-minute appointments.
