Skin concern #4: Sensitive skin
It’s not uncommon for sensitive skin types to be wary of facials. What was meant to be a relaxing facial could in fact cause redness and irritation.
Deep Red facial is another trademark facial at SW1 Spa which includes a 5-step cell enhancement process to regenerate your skin dramatically and promote skin healing.
The facial starts off with a microdermabrasion scrub that gently and effectively clears away dead skin cells. Deep Sonic cleansing is then used to further clear the skin. The signature LED Red light therapy helps to boost cell metabolism and promote healing for firmer and plumper skin, followed by a vitamin-infused iontophoresis to recharge skin cells. The facial ends with a collagen whitening mask to rehydrate skin further and brighten the skin.
