Fire & Ice Peel

A fire and ice peel is an advanced anti-aging facial treatment that uses alternating hot and cold therapy to promote revitalized, younger-looking skin. It begins by deeply cleansing the skin then applying a glycolic peel solution to gently slough off dull surface layers and stimulate collagen growth. This is the “fire” aspect of the treatment. Next, a soothing infusion of restorative hyaluronic acid rehydrates while the cooling “ice” mask provides lasting hydration.

What to Expect

The fire and ice peel begins with a deep cleansing of the skin followed by the application of two separate masks that exfoliate away dead skin and restore hydration to reveal softer, more radiant skin.

Glycolic Acid Peel

The glycolic peel stage of a fire and ice treatment helps dissolve dead skin cells and prepare the skin for rejuvenation. First, the skin is cleansed and toned to remove any residue. Then, a glycolic acid solution is applied and left on the skin for 2-5 minutes. Glycolic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid derived from sugar cane that penetrates the surface layers of skin and dissolves the "glue" holding together old, dull cells. This allows them to be whisked away, revealing brighter skin underneath.

Cooling Hyaluronic Acid Mask

The cooling mask stage is the final step of a fire and ice facial to calm, hydrate and restore the skin after the intensive exfoliating and freezing phases. A serum containing moisturizing ingredients such as aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, and green tea is massaged into the skin to deliver a surge of hydration and plumping effects.
