Our skin performs a variety of functions, from safeguarding us from external threats to regulating our body temperature. Our clinical facials treat the epidermis, the outermost layer of your skin – it’s what you see in the mirror and where your appearance forms.
Our philosophy centres on not just providing treatments but also educating our clients about their skin. Providing you with our expertise enables you to make informed decisions for your skincare, whether in our Gold Coast medispa or as part of your daily routine.

What Is a Medical-Grade Facial?
While home and spa facials offer relaxation and basic skincare maintenance, medical-grade facials are designed for individuals with specific skin conditions, seeking more advanced and targeted solutions under the guidance of trained medical professionals. Unlike the more generalised spa treatments or at-home approaches, medical-grade facials offer:
Clinical Environment and Expertise
Medical-grade facials take place in a clinical environment, emphasising a professional setting that adheres to higher standards of hygiene and safety.
Specialised Products and Technologies
These facials utilise advanced skincare products and technologies that may not be available in a typical spa or at-home treatments, allowing for more targeted and effective solutions for specific skin types and concerns.
Tailored Treatment Plans
Customised to address individual skin conditions and concerns, medical-grade facials provide a personalised and results-driven approach compared to generic spa treatments. Medical professionals analyse your skin to create a plan specifically for your skin concerns.
Treatment Intensity
Procedures that may be incorporated into medical-grade facials, such as stronger chemical peels or advanced laser therapies, can be more intense and require specialised knowledge for proper application, setting them apart from gentler spa treatments.
Informed Decision-Making
Clients undergoing medical-grade facials are often educated about the science behind their skin and treatment modalities, empowering them to make informed decisions about their skincare, both during the procedure and in their daily routines.

What Are the Steps Of A Medispa Facial?
Consultation
Our professionals always initiate the medispa facial process with a comprehensive consultation to understand your skin’s needs and goals. This initial assessment includes an in-depth skin analysis and serves as the foundation for tailoring the subsequent steps to your concerns. Following the consultation, we craft your personalised treatment plan.
Treatment
Once the preparation of your skin is complete, we will then apply the tailored treatment, utilising serums, masks or specialised products to address your individual skin needs. This step enhances the efficacy of the facial for a more personalised outcome.
Cleansing
Medical facials focus on treating your skin comprehensively. The process typically begins with an in-depth pore cleansing, employing specialised products and equipment. This approach enables your provider to cleanse the skin deeply while preserving its natural barrier function, characterised by a balanced pH, oils and lipids.
Massage
Prior to this step, our team will confirm with you to ensure you want a facial, neck and shoulder massage. The massage promotes circulation, relaxation and lymphatic drainage in your body. This adds a soothing element and calming atmosphere to your facial experience.
Exfoliation
In order to completely prep your skin for our treatments, we immediately follow the cleansing with exfoliation. This step removes dead skin cells and stimulates skin renewal. Exfoliating contributes to a smoother and more radiant complexion and enables active ingredients to be absorbed deeper within your skin to enhance their efficacy.
Hydration & Sunscreen
After completing the facial treatment, we will nourish your skin to replenish moisture and apply a high-quality sunscreen to protect against UV damage. This step ensures your skin remains protected and well-hydrated post-facial.
Extractions
(if needed)
Depending on your skin, we may perform extractions to address blackheads, whiteheads or other impurities. Each skin type is different, and the amount of time spent on extractions varies. If you struggle with acne, this step is vital in ensuring the products are able to penetrate into your pores.
Home Care Recommendations
To conclude the facial, we send each of our clients home with personalised recommendations for at-home skincare, providing our professional advice to extend the benefits of the facial and maintain your skin health beyond the session.
What Is the Anticipated Downtime For A Medical-Grade Facial?
The anticipated downtime for a medical-grade facial is typically minimal to none. These advanced facials are designed to provide results without requiring extended recovery periods. While there might be slight redness or mild irritation immediately following the facial, these effects generally subside shortly after the treatment.
After your facial, you may be advised to avoid direct sun exposure and use sunscreen to protect the treated skin. Additionally, specific skincare products or makeup restrictions might be recommended for a brief period to support healing. It's essential to follow any post-facial instructions provided by your skincare professional to maximise the benefits of the treatment and maintain the health of your skin.
What Results Can I Expect From My Facial?
To maintain the benefits of your facial and continue improving your skin health, we recommend periodic follow-up treatments. Our professionals can help you create a customised plan for ongoing skincare. Expect improvements in skin texture through targeted exfoliation and cleansing, promoting a smoother and rejuvenated complexion. Pore refinement and extractions contribute to a clearer and more balanced skin tone. The infusion of medical-grade serums and treatments can address specific concerns such as fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and skin firmness. Additionally, medical-grade facials often provide long-lasting hydration, leaving the skin deeply nourished.
