Facial treatments

Complete Facial Treatment with Radio Waves

A complete facial treatment usually combines basic cleansing with advanced technologies such as radio waves to achieve a comprehensive effect of skin rejuvenation and cleansing. Here is the step-by-step procedure:

1.: Skin Preparation

The treatment begins with thorough cleansing of the face to remove makeup, impurities, and excess sebum. Afterward, a toner is applied to balance the skin’s pH.

2.: Steam (Vapozone)

Steam is directed toward the face to soften and open pores, which facilitates mechanical cleansing of blackheads and other impurities.

3.: Mechanical Cleansing

Blackheads and comedones accumulated in the pores are gently and hygienically removed.

4.: Peeling

A mechanical peeling is applied to remove the surface layer of dead skin cells. This allows better absorption of products and eases the subsequent steps.

5.: Facial Massage

A relaxing massage of the face, neck, and décolleté follows. The massage improves circulation, relaxes facial muscles, and helps active ingredients penetrate deeper.

6.: Radio Waves – 15 Minutes

A special gel is applied to the skin, and then the radio wave device is used. Circular motions are performed over the face, directing energy into the deeper layers of the skin. During these 15 minutes, you will feel a pleasant warmth. Radio waves (RF) stimulate collagen and elastin production in the skin. This results in immediate tightening of existing collagen fibers and, over time, reduces wrinkles and improves skin elasticity. With regular treatments, skin texture becomes more even, and facial tone is significantly improved. After dead cells and impurities are removed, the skin absorbs nutrients from masks and creams applied in later treatment stages much better.

7.: Facial Mask

A mask suited to your skin type is applied.

8.: Final Care

The treatment ends with the application of serum, eye cream, and a moisturizing cream with sun protection.

Benefits of the Treatment:

• Comprehensive care: Instead of addressing only one issue (e.g., sagging or impurities), this combined treatment offers complete care, cleansing and rejuvenating the skin in a single session.

Treatment Duration:

105 minutes

Mechanical Facial Cleansing

Mechanical facial cleansing is a classic and fundamental method for removing blackheads, comedones, and other impurities from the skin. It is intended for individuals with problematic or oily skin. This treatment deeply cleanses the skin and pores, preventing inflammatory processes and improving the overall condition and appearance of the complexion.

Treatment Procedure:

1. Skin Preparation and Surface Cleansing

The face is cleansed with a gentle product to remove surface impurities, makeup, and excess sebum.

2. Facial Steaming (Vapozone)

The face is exposed to warm steam for 10–15 minutes. The steam softens the skin, opens the pores, and facilitates the removal of blackheads and comedones.

3. Mechanical Facial Cleansing

Using sterile gauze and, if needed, specialized cosmetic tools, the esthetician carefully removes blackheads, comedones, and other impurities from the pores. This step is performed professionally and with particular attention to hygiene.

4. Facial Exfoliation

A gentle mechanical exfoliant is applied to remove dead skin cells.

5. High-Frequency Therapy

After cleansing, the skin is treated with antiseptic and ozone to prevent potential infections and soothe the skin.

6. Soothing Mask

A mask is applied to the cleansed face to reduce redness, hydrate, and regenerate the skin. The type of mask is chosen according to the skin’s condition.

7. Final Skincare (Cream)

At the end of the treatment, a suitable cream is applied to protect and nourish the skin.

Treatment Duration: 60 minutes

Facial Cleansing Treatment + IPL for Acne

This combination of treatments represents a powerful approach in the fight against acne and problematic skin. It combines thorough facial cleansing with IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) technology, which targets the root causes of acne – bacteria and inflammatory processes in the skin.

The treatment is effective for oily, acne-prone skin, as well as for skin with clogged pores, redness, and post-inflammatory scars. It helps reduce the number of acne lesions, soothes inflammation, and promotes skin regeneration.

Treatment Procedure:

1.: Surface cleansing of the skin

The skin is cleaned with gentle products to remove impurities, excess sebum, and prepare it for the next steps.

2.: Facial steaming (vapozone)

Steam softens the skin and opens pores, facilitating the removal of comedones and blackheads.

3.: Mechanical facial cleansing

Mechanical removal of blackheads and comedones, especially in the T-zone and areas with pronounced clogged pores.

4.: Skin disinfection

After cleansing, an antiseptic or ozone spray is used to reduce the risk of infection.

5.: acial peeling

A gentle mechanical peeling is applied to remove dead skin cells and further prepare the skin for cleansing.

6.: IPL treatment for acne

A protective gel is applied on the skin, protective eye goggles are worn, and the IPL device treatment is performed. Light pulses penetrate the deeper layers of the skin, destroying bacteria, reducing redness and inflammation, and stimulating skin regeneration.

7.: Soothing or anti-acne mask

After IPL, a special mask is applied that soothes the skin, reduces redness, and hydrates.

8.: Final cream

A light, non-comedogenic cream is applied at the end to hydrate and protect the skin.

Treatment duration:

60 minutes

Benefits of the treatment:

✅ Deep cleansing of the skin and removal of impurities

✅ Destruction of bacteria responsible for acne formation

✅ Reduction of redness and inflammatory processes

✅ Accelerated skin regeneration and scar reduction

✅ Visible improvement in skin texture and complexion

✅ Non-invasive treatment with no downtime

✅ Suitable for both teenagers and adults with acne

Recommendation:

For optimal results, a series of 4–6 treatments is recommended, spaced 2–3 weeks apart, along with proper home care.

Ultrasonic Facial Cleansing

Ultrasonic Facial Cleansing is a non-invasive and gentle method of deep skin cleansing that uses high-frequency ultrasonic vibrations. This treatment has become a popular alternative to traditional mechanical cleansing because it does not cause redness, irritation, or skin damage.

Treatment Process:

1. Facial Steaming with Vapozone

In this step, warm steam is used to open the pores and soften the skin. This phase prepares the face for easier and painless removal of blackheads and impurities.

2. Ultrasonic Facial Cleansing

The treatment is performed using a special device known as an ultrasonic spatula. It emits ultrasonic waves that penetrate deep into the skin and work in two ways:

Cavitation: Vibrations break down impurities, excess sebum, dead skin cells, and blackheads within the pores, effectively “pushing them out” without pressure or painful squeezing.

Sonophoresis (Micro-massage): The other side of the spatula is used for a gentle facial massage and warming of the tissue. This improves microcirculation, stimulates lymphatic drainage, and enhances the absorption of serums, creams, and other nutrients applied after cleansing.

3. Facial Peeling

A gentle mechanical exfoliant is applied to remove dead skin cells and allow better penetration of the device.

4. High-Frequency Therapy

The application of high-frequency electrotherapy has antibacterial and soothing effects. It tightens the pores, reduces redness, and prevents acne formation after ultrasonic cleansing.

5. Face Mask

At the end of the treatment, a mask is applied according to the skin’s current needs—hydrating, calming, or nourishing.

Benefits of Ultrasonic Facial Cleansing

Gentle and Painless: The treatment is pleasant and ideal for sensitive skin, as it leaves no redness or scarring.

Deep Cleansing: Removes oil and bacteria from the pores, reduces blackheads, and helps prevent acne.

Improves Skin Texture: Eliminates the surface layer of dead skin cells, leaving the skin smoother, more radiant, and with a more even tone.

Stimulates Regeneration: Micro-massage encourages the production of collagen and elastin, contributing to firmer and tighter skin.

Increases Product Effectiveness: After the treatment, the skin better absorbs active ingredients from skincare products, making them more effective.

Possible Drawbacks and Contraindications

Although considered extremely safe, it’s important to note that ultrasonic cleansing may not be fully effective for very deep or clogged pores, which may still require combination with traditional mechanical cleansing.

The treatment is not recommended for:

Individuals with malignant conditions

Individuals with a pacemaker

Individuals with epilepsy

Pregnant women

As with any treatment, it is advisable to consult with a cosmetologist or dermatologist to determine whether ultrasonic cleansing is the right choice for your skin type and specific needs.

Microdermabrasion

1.: Microdermabrasion Procedure Description:

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive procedure of deep mechanical exfoliation that removes the surface layer of dead cells from the epidermis.

Treatment Process:

The treatment begins with thorough facial cleansing. Then, a special device with a diamond tip is used to gently but effectively “polish” the skin while vacuuming away dead cells. The procedure is painless and relatively short. After the treatment, targeted serums and nourishing cream are applied.

Effect and Application:

By removing the dead layer, skin regeneration is stimulated along with the production of new collagen and elastin. Skin texture and tone improve, fine lines, enlarged pores, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation are reduced. The skin becomes smoother, brighter, and better absorbs active ingredients.

2.: Ultrasonic Spatula

Procedure Description:

The ultrasonic spatula uses low-frequency ultrasonic vibrations for deep skin cleansing and gentle exfoliation.

Treatment Process:

The spatula (metal head) vibrates at a very high frequency (about 25-27 kHz).

Cleansing Phase (Exfoliation):

When the spatula is placed at a certain angle on damp skin, the vibrations create a cavitation effect in the water, which pushes impurities, sebum, and blackheads from pores. It also gently removes the surface layer of dead cells. This is a gentle alternative to classic mechanical cleansing.

Product Infusion Phase (Sonophoresis):

By using the other side of the spatula or rotating the device’s head, the vibrations provide micromassage and enhance the absorption of applied serums, ampoules, or nutrients into the deeper skin layers (sonophoresis).

Effect and Application:

Deeply cleanses pores, removes blackheads and surface impurities, stimulates microcirculation, and significantly improves the penetration of cosmetic products. The skin is clean, smooth, without irritation or redness that often accompanies manual cleansing.

3.: Iontophoresis

Procedure Description:

Iontophoresis is a treatment that uses galvanic (direct) current to deliver active ingredients from cosmetic products deeper into the skin.

Treatment Process:

It is based on the principle that products with a certain ionic charge (positive or negative) can be repelled into the skin by a similarly charged electrode or impurities can be drawn out using the oppositely charged electrode. A product (ampoule, serum) with ionized ingredients is applied to the face, and the cosmetologist uses a roller electrode over the skin while the client holds the other electrode, completing the circuit.

Effect and Application:

The main purpose is deep hydration, regeneration, and introduction of anti-aging, vitamin, or other active substances directly into the dermis, where they are most effective. It is used for treating dry, dehydrated skin, wrinkles, scars, and hyperpigmentation.

4.: Hot and Cold Hammer (Hammer Device)

Procedure Description:

The hot and cold hammer is a device with two sides—one emits heat and the other cold—and is used as a finishing step in many facial treatments.

Treatment Process:

Hot Side: Used to relax muscles, open pores, and improve blood circulation. Usually applied briefly before active ingredient application to prepare the skin for better absorption.

Cold Side: More commonly used after active treatments (like microdermabrasion, cleansing, chemical peeling, or serum application) to soothe the skin, reduce redness and irritation, close pores, and tighten the skin. It also reduces swelling (edema) and is often used for treatments around the eyes (dark circles).

Effect and Application:

Calms and tones the skin, reduces inflammation and irritation, tightens pores, and improves skin elasticity thanks to the alternating temperatures that stimulate tissue.

5.: Facial Ultrasound

Procedure Description:

Facial ultrasound in this context typically refers to the use of ultrasonic waves to introduce active substances into the skin.

Treatment Process:

A special head (probe) emitting high-frequency ultrasonic waves is used. An active serum or gel is applied to the skin. Ultrasonic microvibrations and thermal effects create temporary changes in cell membranes, allowing large molecules of active ingredients to penetrate deeply into the skin, which is not possible with classic topical application.

Effect and Application:

Deep hydration, stimulation of collagen and elastin production, tightening and lifting, reduction of puffiness and dark circles under the eyes, and overall improvement in skin tone and radiance.

These treatments are combined in one session to achieve maximum effect.

E-LIGHT TECHNOLOGY FOR PIGMENTATION REMOVAL

E-Light is a technology commonly used for removing skin pigmentation issues such as age spots, sun spots, and other superficial hyperpigmentation.

What is E-Light?

E-Light is a combination of two technologies:

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL): This light targets melanin (pigment) in the skin. When melanin absorbs the light, it heats up.

Radiofrequency (RF): RF uses energy to further heat the targeted area. The heat from RF helps break down excess melanin and stimulates collagen production, contributing to overall skin rejuvenation.

How Does E-Light Remove Pigmentation?

The mechanism behind E-Light pigmentation removal involves the following steps:

Light Absorption: IPL emits a broad spectrum of light, which is absorbed by excess melanin in the pigmented spot.

Heating: The absorbed light energy is converted into heat. RF energy further enhances this heating process.

Pigment Breakdown: The heat causes the melanin clusters to break down.

Natural Elimination: The broken-down pigment is gradually removed from the body through the skin’s natural processes (peeling or immune absorption).

What to Expect After the Treatment

After treatment, pigmentation often darkens (appears like small scabs or darker spots), then gradually peels off or fades over the following days or weeks.

Typically, multiple sessions (often 1 to 3) spaced a few weeks apart are needed to achieve optimal results.

Avoid sun exposure before and after the treatment, and always use a high SPF (50+) to prevent new pigmentation from forming.

Session Duration:

Approximately 15 minutes

For more detailed information about preparation, the procedure, and recovery, it is best to consult with a professional at the salon or clinic offering the treatment.

E-LIGHT PHOTO REJUVENATION OF THE SKIN

Light skin rejuvenation is a highly effective aesthetic treatment, also known as photorejuvenation (skin rejuvenation), which uses advanced ELOS technology. This technology combines two energies in one pulse to achieve superior results:

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light): Light energy targets pigment in spots and hemoglobin in capillaries, heating and breaking them down.

Radiofrequency (RF): Radiofrequency energy penetrates deeper into the skin and targets water molecules, heating the dermal tissue in a controlled way. This thermal effect stimulates strong production of new collagen and elastin.

Key effects of E-Light rejuvenation:

The combination of IPL and RF allows treatment of both surface and deeper skin issues on the face, neck, décolleté, and hands.

Tightening and lifting: RF stimulates collagen, resulting in tightening of loose skin, improved elasticity, and reduction of visible wrinkles.

Pigmentation removal: Effectively removes age spots, sun-induced pigmentation, and superficial melasma, achieving a more even skin tone.

Redness reduction: Soothes capillaries and redness caused by rosacea by absorbing hemoglobin.

Texture improvement: Generally enhances skin quality, tone, and texture, making it smoother and softer.

Acne treatment: Reduces active acne and regulates sebum production.

The advantage of the E-Light system is that RF energy helps IPL penetrate deeper at a lower light energy level, making the treatment safer and more comfortable with minimal or no recovery time.

Treatment duration: 15-30 minutes

E-Light technology used for removing broken capillaries on the face.

How does E-Light work against capillaries?

E-Light technology combines:

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL): The light emitted from the device is selectively absorbed by the hemoglobin in the blood inside the capillary.
Radiofrequency (RF): RF energy additionally heats the blood vessel.

This heating causes the blood to coagulate and the capillary walls to break down, while the surrounding tissue is minimally affected. After the treatment, the body naturally absorbs the destroyed capillary, which leads to its fading and disappearance.

Key information about the treatment:

Effectiveness: Proven effective for reducing redness and removing broken capillaries on the face, as well as some smaller capillaries on the body.
Sensation: You may feel slight tingling or warmth during the treatment.
Number of treatments: Typically, 3–6 sessions are needed to achieve optimal results, with several weeks between treatments.
Recovery: After the treatment, redness or mild swelling may appear, but both are temporary.

Treatment duration
15–30 minutes

E-light technology, which combines Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and Radiofrequency (RF), is highly effective and commonly used for treating acne and related skin issues.

The treatment targets the three main causes of acne: bacteria, inflammation, and excessive sebum (oil) production.

How E-light Works Against Acne:

E-light uses specific wavelengths of light and the thermal energy of radiofrequency to target acne-causing factors without damaging the surrounding tissue.

Bacteria Elimination (IPL Effect – Blue/Violet Light):

The IPL component emits light that is absorbed by porphyrin molecules found in Propionibacterium acnes, the primary acne-causing bacteria.

When the bacteria absorb this light energy, they are destroyed through a photodynamic effect, reducing the number of active inflammatory lesions (pimples).

Reduction of Inflammation and Redness (IPL + RF Effect):

Light also has an anti-inflammatory effect, reducing redness and swelling associated with active acne.

Radiofrequency (RF), through deep tissue heating, stimulates microcirculation and regeneration processes, helping to soothe irritated skin.

Sebum Regulation and Scar Reduction:

The heat generated by IPL and RF targets the sebaceous glands, reducing their activity and consequently the overproduction of sebum. This helps prevent the formation of new acne and comedones (blackheads).

The combined thermal effect stimulates collagen production in the deeper layers of the skin, which is essential for reducing and regenerating acne scars and marks, improving overall skin texture and tone.

Recommended Treatments and Results to achieve optimal and long-lasting results, a series of treatments is usually required:

Number of Sessions: Typically 5 to 10 sessions are recommended, depending on the severity of the acne.

Frequency: Treatments are carried out at relatively short intervals, often once a week (or every 3 to 5 days for active acne) during the initial phase, and later once every 7 to 10 days.

Results: Improvement is often noticeable after just a few sessions, with full skin stabilization achieved after completing the treatment series.

E-light is a method of permanent hair removal that combines Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and Radiofrequency (RF), making it particularly effective—even for facial areas.

How E-light works for facial hair removal:

Combination of IPL and RF:

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) emits light that is absorbed by the melanin in the hair, converting it into heat that destroys the hair follicle.

RF (Radiofrequency) additionally heats the hair root and follicle, enhancing the effect of IPL. Unlike IPL alone, RF is not dependent on hair or skin color, which makes the E-light method effective even on lighter, finer, and less pigmented facial hairs.

Effectiveness and results:

The method is safe and can be used on the face (e.g., upper lip, chin).

Multiple sessions are required—typically 6 to 10 treatments spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart—because only hairs in the active growth phase can be treated.

After treatment, hairs fall out within one to two weeks, and reduced hair growth is noticeable even after the first session.

RADIO WAVES FOR FACE (Radiofrequency) Technology

Radiofrequency technology for the face is a popular, non-invasive treatment for skin rejuvenation and tightening. It uses radiofrequency energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin (the dermis), which stimulates the body’s natural response — the production of new collagen and elastin. This heating causes contraction of existing collagen fibers for an immediate tightening effect, and in the long term promotes skin renewal.

Key Effects and Benefits of RF Facial Treatment:

Skin tightening and firming (Lifting effect): The primary use of RF is to achieve firmer and tighter skin, resulting in a non-invasive lift.

Wrinkle reduction: It encourages smoothing of fine lines and visibly reduces deeper wrinkles.

Improved skin tone and texture: Skin becomes smoother, more radiant, and plumper.

Reduction of enlarged pores and acne scars.

Reduction of double chin and facial fat deposits (depending on the specific device and technique).

Better absorption of skincare products: Increased microcirculation and perspiration improve absorption of cosmetic products.

Non-invasiveness: The treatment is painless (often described as a pleasant warm massage), requires no surgery or downtime.

Treatment Process and Results:

Treatment process:

Thorough facial cleansing.

Application of a conductive gel that allows better penetration of radiofrequency waves and protects the skin.

Use of the radiofrequency device, gently heating the skin in circular motions on targeted areas (face, neck, décolleté).

At the end of the treatment, moisturizing cream with sunscreen is applied.

Duration and frequency:

A series of 3 to 6 treatments is recommended, depending on skin condition and desired results.

Treatments are usually repeated once a week, or every 4–6 weeks for maintenance.

Results are often visible after the first treatment, but the best and most lasting effect is achieved after completing the series, as the body continues producing collagen for weeks and months after treatment.

Results can last up to two years with regular maintenance.

Treatment Duration: 10–60 minutes

Radiofrequency (RF) is a popular non-invasive method effectively used for skin tightening and contour shaping, including addressing issues such as double chin and certain types of under-eye bags.

RF uses radio wave energy to precisely heat the deeper layers of the skin (dermis and subcutaneous tissue). This heat stimulates two key processes:

Immediate collagen tightening (contraction)

Long-term stimulation of fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin (neocollagenesis).

Double Chin Removal with RF

Radiofrequency is an excellent non-invasive treatment for correcting a double chin, especially when the issue is primarily caused by loose skin and a small amount of fat tissue.

How RF Works on the Double Chin:

Neck skin tightening: The heat from radio waves causes contraction of existing collagen fibers, leading to a visible lifting effect and tightening of loose skin on the neck and under the chin.

Fat reduction: RF technology can reach deeper layers of fat tissue and help break down small fat cells (lipolysis), which are then naturally eliminated from the body.

Jawline contouring: By tightening the skin and reducing fat volume, RF significantly improves the definition of the jawline, creating a more elegant profile.

Treatment Duration: 10–60 minutes

Treatment of Under-Eye Bags with RF

RF treatments for under-eye bags focus on improving skin quality and reducing puffiness in the periorbital area.

How RF Works on Under-Eye Bags:

Reduction of bags/puffiness: Under-eye bags are often caused by fluid retention or mild fat tissue prolapse. RF improves local circulation and lymphatic drainage, helping to reduce puffiness and “bags” under the eyes.

Tightening of thin skin: The skin around the eyes is the thinnest on the body. RF tightens and strengthens the skin, which helps smooth fine lines (“crow’s feet”) and improves skin tone.

Alleviation of dark discoloration: By improving circulation and cellular turnover, RF can also contribute to reducing dark circles caused by poor microcirculation.

Important: RF is most effective for under-eye bags caused by loose skin and mild puffiness.

Treatment Process and Recovery:

Procedure: The treatment is usually pleasant and painless, with the client feeling only warmth. Depending on the device, the session lasts between 10 and 60 minutes.

Number of treatments: For optimal and long-lasting results, a series of 4 to 6 treatments is usually required, repeated every 2 to 4 weeks.

Recovery: Radiofrequency is non-invasive and requires no special downtime. Mild redness or swelling may occur but typically resolves spontaneously within a few hours to 36 hours.

Treatment Duration: 30 minutes

What is HIFU Treatment?

HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a non-invasive aesthetic procedure for skin rejuvenation that uses high-frequency focused ultrasound to stimulate the natural production of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin. It is a technology that allows for skin tightening and lifting without the need for surgical intervention.

How Does HIFU Work?

During the treatment, the device emits focused ultrasound waves that penetrate deep beneath the skin’s surface, reaching the SMAS layer (Superficial Musculo-Aponeurotic System), which is typically targeted only through surgical facelifts. These waves generate controlled heat that stimulates the body’s natural regeneration process and collagen synthesis.

What Are the Benefits of HIFU?

Non-invasive treatment with no cuts or needles

No downtime – you can return to daily activities immediately

Natural results – rejuvenation develops over weeks to months

Skin tightening and lifting on the face, neck, chin, and décolleté

Improved skin tone and texture

Who Is an Ideal Candidate?

HIFU is recommended for individuals who are noticing mild to moderate skin dullness. Ideal candidates are those seeking visible results without surgery and with minimal risks.

Which Areas Can Be Treated?

Face (cheeks, forehead, jawline)

Neck and under the chin

Décolleté

Body areas with loose skin (upper arms, abdomen, thighs)

How Many Treatments Are Needed?

Most clients notice improvement after just one session, while optimal results develop over 2 to 3 months as the body produces new collagen. Results can last between 12 to 18 months, depending on individual skin characteristics and lifestyle.

Are There Any Side Effects?

HIFU is a very safe treatment, but mild redness, slight swelling, or tenderness in the treated area may occur temporarily, usually resolving within a few hours.

Facial Lymphatic Drainage in a Salon

Facial lymphatic drainage in a salon is a gentle massage technique aimed at stimulating the lymphatic system of the face and neck, which helps remove excess fluid and toxins. This treatment is non-invasive, relaxing, and increasingly popular due to its aesthetic as well as health benefits.

Key Benefits of Facial Lymphatic Drainage

Facial lymphatic drainage offers numerous benefits, which is why many refer to it as a non-surgical facelift:

Reduction of Puffiness (Swelling): The most noticeable effect is the reduction of swelling, especially around the eyes and across the face, resulting in more defined facial contours (cheekbones, jawline).

Detoxification: Stimulates the lymphatic system to remove toxins, waste products, and excess fluids, contributing to a healthier skin appearance.

Improved Complexion and Radiance: By boosting circulation, the skin receives better oxygen and nutrient supply, leading to a fresher, more radiant, and well-rested look.

Anti-Aging Effect: Can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin tone and firmness.

Support for Skin Conditions: May help alleviate conditions such as acne and eczema, and assist with sinus congestion and headaches.

Post-Surgery Recovery: Often recommended during the post-operative period (e.g. after cosmetic procedures) to reduce swelling and speed up recovery.

Treatment Duration

30 minutes

Aroma Facial Massage (or Aromatherapy Facial Massage)

Aroma facial massage is a holistic treatment that combines relaxing massage techniques for the face, neck, and décolleté with the therapeutic properties of essential oils. The oils are individually selected and blended with carrier oils to suit your skin type, preferences, and current mental/physical state.

Key Features and Procedure

Essential Oils: The core of the treatment. High-quality natural oils are used, which affect both the skin and the sense of smell. Oils are always diluted in carrier oils for safe application.

Technique: The massage is usually performed with slow, deep, relaxing movements that stimulate circulation and lymphatic drainage. It often includes elements of acupressure.

Focus: Besides the face, the massage often covers the neck, shoulders, and décolleté for complete relaxation.

Benefits of Aroma Facial Massage

This massage provides a dual effect—physical benefits for the skin and muscles, and psychological and emotional relaxation thanks to the scents.

1. Benefits for the Skin:

Revitalization and Glow: Stimulates blood circulation, leading to better oxygen and nutrient delivery to skin cells, leaving the complexion brighter and fresher.

Detoxification and Drainage: Encourages lymphatic drainage, helping remove toxins, reduce puffiness (especially around the eyes), and alleviate sinus issues.

Anti-Aging Effect: Helps relax muscle tension and can contribute to maintaining skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines.

Hydration and Care: Natural carrier and essential oils nourish, hydrate, and care for the skin.

2. Benefits for Mind and Body:

Deep Relaxation and Stress Reduction: The scent of essential oils and the therapist’s soothing touch trigger the body’s relaxation response, significantly lowering stress and anxiety levels.

Mood Improvement: Essential oils can stimulate the release of endorphins (“happiness hormones”), resulting in a better mood and a sense of calm.

Help with Headaches: Relaxation of neck and facial muscle tension can aid in relieving tension headaches.

Contraindications

Although generally safe and pleasant, certain health conditions require caution or are contraindications for aromatherapy massage (body and face):

Allergies to essential or carrier oils (always inform the therapist).

Acute skin inflammations (e.g., severe acne, eczema, herpes).

Pregnancy (some oils are not recommended).

Malignant diseases.

High blood pressure (hypertension) and heart conditions.

Blood clots.

Treatment Duration

30 minutes

Vacuum Facial Massage

This method is popular for its non-invasive and lifting effects.

How Does Vacuum Facial Massage Work?

The main mechanism is suction, which pulls the skin and subcutaneous tissue upwards. This achieves:

Increased Blood Circulation: Enhanced blood flow delivers more oxygen and nutrients to skin cells, resulting in an immediate radiant complexion.

Lymphatic Drainage: Helps remove stagnant fluids and toxins, which is crucial for reducing puffiness (edema), especially around the eyes and along the jawline.

Tissue Stimulation: Improved circulation stimulates cells responsible for collagen and elastin production, which over time can enhance skin firmness and elasticity.

Muscle Tension Relief: The massage relaxes tense facial muscles, particularly in the jaw area (TMJ), temples, and between the eyebrows, softening expression lines.

Key Benefits (Effects)

Lifting and Toning: Strengthens facial muscle tone and provides a visible, temporary tightening and contouring effect.

Reduction of Puffiness: Extremely effective in reducing “bags” and dark circles under the eyes, as well as general facial swelling.

Improved Complexion: Skin tone becomes more even, fresher, and brighter (less dull).

Wrinkle Reduction: Regular use can soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and help prevent new ones.

Better Product Absorption: After the treatment, the skin better absorbs serums and creams, maximizing the effects of your skincare routine.

Treatment Duration

30 minutes

Buccal Facial Massage

Buccal massage is a unique, deep massage technique that focuses on the muscles of the face and jaw, performed intraorally—through the mouth—while simultaneously massaging the outer cheek area. This innovative method, sometimes called a sculptural facelift, is considered one of the most effective non-invasive treatments for natural facial rejuvenation.

The therapist uses sterile gloves to manipulate the muscles of the cheeks and oral cavity with their fingers, targeting the deep muscle layers and fascial tissues that often tense up due to stress.

Key Benefits of Buccal Massage

Buccal massage offers a range of aesthetic and therapeutic benefits:

Lifting and Toning of Muscles: Works on the deeper facial muscles, improving their tone, resulting in a natural lifting effect and enhanced facial contours. The face appears fuller and firmer “from the inside.”

Reduction of Wrinkles and Fine Lines: Muscle and tissue stimulation can promote collagen and elastin production, reducing the visibility of wrinkles, especially around the lips, cheeks, and jawline.

Tension Release: Highly effective for people suffering from bruxism (teeth grinding) or TMJ syndrome (temporomandibular joint disorder) as it releases accumulated tension in the jaw and facial muscles. Helps relieve stress.

Improved Circulation and Drainage: Encourages lymphatic drainage, aiding in the elimination of toxins and excess fluids, reducing puffiness, dark circles, and shadows around the eyes. The skin becomes more radiant.

Treatment Duration and Experience

The treatment usually lasts between 60 and 90 minutes. While the intraoral massage can be intense (a slight pressure may be felt in the muscles), it is generally not painful. For lasting results, a series of treatments is typically recommended.

Who Should Avoid Buccal Massage?

Although safe, buccal massage is generally not recommended for people with:

Acute oral inflammations or infections (e.g., inflamed gums, open wounds, lesions).

Acute acne inflammations or dermatitis.

High body temperature.

Pregnant women in the early stages (up to the 3rd month).

Cancer patients (depending on condition and doctor’s advice).

Treatment Duration

30 minutes

Facial Peeling

Mechanical facial peeling (also known as physical peeling) is a procedure that removes the surface layer of dead skin cells by physical exfoliation. This results in smoother skin texture, pore cleansing, and stimulation of skin renewal.

Treatment Duration: 15 minutes

Face Mask

A face mask in a beauty salon is a key part of the skincare treatment and usually follows thorough facial cleansing. Its main purpose is to target specific needs of your skin (hydration, cleansing, soothing, anti-aging effect).

Types of Masks and Their Purposes

Treatment Duration: 20 minutes

Eyebrow Shaping

Eyebrow shaping with tweezers and waxing are the two most common methods for hair removal and shaping the eyebrow arches. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, and they are often used in combination at salons to achieve the perfect shape.

Treatment Duration: 10–20 minutes

Eyebrow and Eyelash Tinting

Eyebrow and eyelash tinting at the salon is a popular and quick treatment that visually enhances the eyes, giving the appearance of greater density without the need for daily use of mascara or eyebrow pencil.

Service Description and Procedure

The goal of tinting is to darken the hairs, making them appear longer and thicker, which is especially beneficial for people with light or sparse hairs.

1.: Eyelash Tinting

Preparation: The cosmetologist first protects the skin under the eyes (and eyelids) with thin pads to prevent the dye from coming into contact with the skin.

Application: A special, gentle dye formulated for the eye area is applied, usually dark brown or black, depending on the desired intensity.

Processing: The dye is left on the eyelashes for a few minutes.

Rinsing: The dye is carefully rinsed off. The result is darker eyelashes from root to tip, creating the illusion of longer and fuller lashes.

2.: Eyebrow Tinting

Color selection: The color is chosen in consultation with the cosmetologist and is tailored to your skin tone, hair color, and face shape to achieve a natural yet defined look.

Application: The dye is precisely applied to the eyebrow hairs.

Processing and rinsing: After a few minutes, the dye is rinsed off.

Correction (optional): Tinting is often combined with eyebrow shaping using tweezers or waxing.

Treatment Duration: 15–30 minutes

Daytime Makeup

Professional daytime makeup service at the salon is designed to give you a fresh, natural, and flawless look, perfect for daily activities, business meetings, lunches, or simply to boost your confidence throughout the day.

What does a typical daytime makeup service include?

Daytime makeup differs from evening or special occasion makeup in that it is much lighter and more discreet. The goal is to achieve a “no-makeup makeup” look that highlights your natural facial features.

Basic steps and products included in the service:

Consultation: A discussion with the makeup artist about your skin type, preferences, and the occasion.

Skin preparation: Application of an appropriate face primer to ensure makeup longevity.

Light foundation: Use of a lightweight liquid foundation, BB cream, or tinted moisturizer to even out the skin tone without feeling heavy.

Concealer: Precise coverage of dark circles, redness, and minor imperfections.

Eyebrow shaping: Filling and defining brows with pencil or shadow for a neat and natural look.

Eyes: Use of light, neutral eyeshadow shades (optional) for subtle emphasis, plus mascara application to open up the eyes.

Light contouring/blush: Gentle contouring or blush application for freshness and a healthy complexion.

Lips: Application of balm, gloss, or light/neutral lipstick shades for hydration and a soft color.

Finishing: Setting the makeup with powder or a light setting spray to ensure lasting wear.

Treatment Duration: 60 minutes

Evening Makeup

While daytime makeup is light and natural, evening (or special occasion) makeup at the salon is designed to be more pronounced, glamorous, and long-lasting, as it needs to look flawless under artificial lighting and in photographs.

What does Evening/Special Occasion Makeup usually include?

Evening makeup differs significantly from daytime makeup in terms of intensity and the amount of products used. The treatment is longer and involves more steps to achieve a dramatic and durable look:

Key Steps:

Thorough skin preparation: High-quality primers and skincare products are used to ensure the base stays intact all night (SPF protection is often used if makeup is applied during the day).

Full coverage and correction: Long-lasting and highly pigmented liquid foundations and concealers are used for complete coverage of imperfections, even skin tone, and removal of dark circles.

Defined contouring and highlighting: The face is carefully contoured (emphasizing cheekbones, jawline, and nose) and highlighter is applied for a glamorous glow.

Dramatic eye makeup:

Focus is on intense techniques such as smoky eyes, cut crease, or the use of dark and shimmering eyeshadows.

Eyeliner and black pencil (sometimes waterproof) are mandatory.

Application of false eyelashes (full or partial) is included for a dramatic look, often included in the price or available for a small additional fee.

Defined lips: Lips are more strongly emphasized with lip liner and bold lipstick shades (red, deep red, nude-matte, etc.), depending on whether the focus is on eyes or lips.

Setting: The final step is the application of a setting spray to guarantee the makeup’s longevity and resistance to moisture, sweat, and transfer.

Treatment Duration: 60 minutes
