What you can expect
Beyond settling into our coziest treatment bed and enjoying warm, friendly care, you’ll experience the signature sensations that make Fire & Ice so iconic. As the “Fire” mask is applied, you’ll feel a tingly, warming sensation - especially during removal. We incorporate additional techniques to gently elevate the skin’s temperature for optimal results. These steps are luxurious, not painful, and we’re with you every step of the way. Communication is always encouraged.
​
This is followed by the “Ice” phase: intense cooling and soothing, designed to rapidly calm and hydrate the skin. We elevate this stage with our own techniques to flood the skin with cooling relief. From there, it’s pure relaxation. Massage, pampering, and time to let your skin reap the rewards of the work it just did.
Improves Texture & Tone
​
A powerful blend of AHAs and BHAs deeply exfoliates to dramatically smooth and refine the skin. Ideal for all texture types. Including thick, congested, or acne-prone skin. This facial leaves your skin feeling silky, soft, and polished.
Reduces Visible Signs of Aging
Dull, tired-looking skin is often the result of insufficient or improper exfoliation. Glycolic acid and other active ingredients stimulate collagen production, remove aging surface cells, and help soften the appearance of fine lines caused by dehydration.
Let’s get into the benefits
Deep Pore Clarification
The “Fire” phase works to loosen oil, debris, and buildup trapped beneath the skin. This intense exfoliation allows extractions to release more easily, resulting in a thorough, effective deep clean.
Anti-Inflammatory & Calming
The “Ice” phase delivers instant cooling relief, calming inflammation and soothing the skin for a balanced, refreshed finish. Many people’s favourite step!
Enhanced Radiance
Heat-induced microcirculation boosts blood flow and oxygenation, giving the skin no option but to glow! Hello bright, flushed, and visibly revitalized skin!
