24 Karat Gold Facial
Designed specifically as a rejuvenating service, Gerard Bollei Salon’s 24 Karat Gold Facial is both an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant facial treatment that quite simply gives skin a better consistency. In addition to increasing circulation, the 24 Karat Gold Facial removes the sallow tones that often appear on the complexion over time. Using a high performance mask made up of pure 24-karat gold powder as well as 100% silk extracts, this new treatment (which was inspired by Cleopatra’s beauty regimen) takes years off the face while refreshing the inner spirit.
Facial Treatments
It is never too early to start taking care of your skin by having a facial treatment. Many teenagers will wash their face with whatever soap they find in the shower, but if you begin proper skin care at an early age, you will always look 10 years younger than you really are!
Our standard European facial treatment is a hands-on delicacy that lasts one hour and includes thorough cleansing, exfoliation and moisturizing. Supplementary masks are prescribed according to your individual skin type. These may include a Relaxing Purifying Mask, an anti-oxidant Lavender and Rosemary Mask, an exfoliating Papaya Mask, the regenerative 4-layer Mask by Repechage (especially recommended for pre-and post-cosmetic surgery), the nourishing Seaweed mask or any number of other customized “Skin Cocktails” that your aesthetician can create especially for your specific needs.
Special touches include paraffin hand and foot treatments, micro-peels, “Instant Glow Express Lifts,” Anti-Acne Peels for teens and special days, Firming Eye Lifts, and of course the new 24 Karat Gold Mask.
Monthly facial treatments are highly recommended for everyone: men, women and teens. These luxurious procedures help maintain the skin’s beauty. Included is a personal prescription for at-home use of products that may be refilled as needed.
Back Exfoliation Treatment
Back Exfoliation Treatment: Crucial when going backless or for swimsuits since most of us cannot see those hidden blemishes and other imperfections hidden away on our backs. This is especially prevalent on those who exercise often since excessive sweating causes the body’s toxins to enter and remain in the enlarged pores on the back, causing blackheads and other breakouts. During the 45-minute treatment, the skin is cleansed, blemishes are extracted then a peeling cream is applied. The back exfoliation treatment is finished with a mask appropriate for the client’s skin type. Now you can go backless without fear!
