L'Officiel Singapore Spa Awards 2022: Best Facial Therapies
Is your skin feeling worse for wear from prolonged exposure to environmental and work stressors? Here, all the clinics and spas for Singapore's best facial therapies to help you get your skin to tip-top shape once again.
BEST CLARIFYING FACIAL: AERAS BY MIZU, AERAS DEEP DETOX FACIAL
If you’re suffering from stubborn clogged pores, consider this treatment. Aeras by Mizu’s Aeras Deep Detox Facial is our go-to clarifying facial that exfoliates the skin and reduces blackheads and whiteheads, as well as the overproduction of oil.
BEST HYDRATING FACIAL: THE CLIFFORD CLINIC, HYDRAFACIAL
The facial does more than what its name suggests. Besides adding hydration to your parched skin, The Clifford Clinic’s HydraFacial also treats skin concerns like clogged pores, fine lines and wrinkles, loss of elasticity and firmness, signs of ageing, hyperpigmentation, and poor skin tone. “I give it bonus points for including a deep tissue massage on my upper body and neck,” says Melissa Mae.
BEST EXPRESS FACIAL: LASER CLINICS ASIA, HYDRAFACIAL EXPRESS
Looking for a quick skin fix with no downtime? Laser Clinics Asia’s HydraFacial Express is the treatment to try. This HydraFacial Express utilises over 14 vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to stimulate collagen, improve hydration, and firm up skin elasticity. “The therapist paid special focus to the skin concerns I wanted to focus on and tailored the treatment to best suit my needs,” says Melissa Mae.
BEST SIGNATURE FACIAL: DIOR PRESTIGE GRAND FACIAL TREATMENT
Dior Prestige’s Grand Facial Treatment is a pampering session worth investing in. With the option of 90-minute or 120-minute sessions, this therapeutic service uses Dior’s exquisite Rose de Granville extract to nourish and replenish the skin for a more radiant complexion. Though it lasts longer than a typical facial, you can trust that each step of the session is worth every minute.
BEST LIFTING FACIAL: CERAMIQUE AESTHETICS, INDIBA PROIONIC FACELIFT THERAPY
CE marked and FDA approved, Ceramique Aesthetics’ lifting facial uses a unique INDIBA patented Proionic® System to stimulate healthy cell function and revitalisation using radio frequency. Set at a specific level of 448 kHz, this treatment will reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines right from the first session. “You can see the results right after the treatment!” says Wirda Elliesa.
BEST ANTI-AGEING FACIAL: AERAS BY MIZU, AERAS TIME-REWIND ANAPHASIC STEMCELL FACIAL
Aeras by Mizu’s Aeras Time-Rewind Anaphasic Stemcell Facial does a whole lot more than just reduce visible signs of ageing — it also rejuvenates skin, reduces enlarged pores and pigmentation, and evens out your skin tone.
BEST EXPRESS BRIGHTENING FACIAL: ILLUMIA THERAPEUTICS, CUSTOMISED JET INFUSION FACIAL
Visible results in just half an hour, that’s exactly what illumia Therapeutics’ Customised Jet Infusion Facial promises. If you’re looking for a quick lunchtime facial or just something to do before meeting your friends, get an instant glow-up with this customised serum treatment, administered onto your skin using a medical-grade jet device.
BEST BRIGHTENING FACIAL: RATIONALE, THE EPINOVA BRILLIANCE FACIAL
This 90-minute facial delivers a bespoke experience to whoever goes for it. "The therapist customised the treatment to my skin’s needs as she went, and used innovative technologies like ultrasound and UV lights throughout the session. My skin felt nourished and looked brighter for a few days post-treatment," says Gregory Woo.
BEST SHAPING FACIAL TREATMENT: BESPOKE AESTHETICS, INDIBA DEEP CARE FACIAL TREATMENT
Just like its winning Body Contouring Treatment, Bespoke Aesthetics’ Indiba Deep Care Facial Treatment does the job of toning specific areas of your face for a more taut appearance. “There was a very visible difference after the treatment, and even after half of the face was treated,” says Ian Lee.
BEST FIRMING FACIAL TREATMENT: SKIN INC, TURN ON THE POWER OF CUSTOMIZATION
Skin Inc’s latest treatment is perfect for lunchtime facials or workers who require a quick beauty fix before going back to the office. The facial starts off with a quiz to identify your skin concerns, followed by the creation of a customised serum cocktail to be used for your session. “It was
fast and it does the job,” says Wirda Elliesa. “My skin felt and looked great afterwards.”
BEST EYE TREATMENT: MTM LABO CUSTOM-BLENDED SYNERGICA EYE TREATMENT
mtm labo’s custom-blended synergica eye treatment is our go-to procedure for tackling puffy, tired-looking eyes. “The staff took the time to explain and advise on how I can better care for my skin at home,” says Constance Lien. This is the perfect treatment for those who lack regular sleep routines.
BEST SPA FOR FACIALS: AERAS BY MIZU
Aeras by Mizu has won two separate awards within the facials category, so it’s no wonder that this clinic caught our attention. Managed by Dr YZ Tan of Mizu Aesthetic Clinic, this medically backed bespoke facial clinic delivers treatments based on the concerns of every individual who walks through their door, for a more personalised experience.
