Facials in Harlow

Which facial should I book?

Book the Essential Glow Facial, at £45, for a deep clean and a fresh start. Book the Signature Glow Facial, at £65, if you want a treatment built around your skin with LED light therapy. Book the Advanced Skin Facial, at £85, for dull, congested or uneven skin that needs more than a cleanse.

If you can't decide, start with the Signature. It gives Dilan time to understand your skin, and you leave with a plan for what to book next.

Essential Glow Facial, £45

A skin consultation, double cleanse and gentle exfoliation, with steam if it suits your skin and light extractions where they're needed. Dilan finishes with a mask, moisturiser and SPF. It suits first-timers and anyone who wants regular upkeep.

Signature Glow Facial, £65

Tailored to your skin on the day, with deeper exfoliation, extractions where needed, a targeted serum, a facial massage and a premium mask. LED light therapy and finishing products complete it.

Advanced Skin Facial, £85

Everything in the Signature, plus microdermabrasion or an enzyme peel, high frequency and lymphatic massage. Dilan chooses between microdermabrasion and the peel for your skin. You can add mesotherapy for £40, which delivers hydrating ingredients into the skin through fine needling.

What is LED light therapy?

LED light therapy shines light of set colours onto the skin from a panel held close to your face. It involves no needles, and you lie with your eyes covered for the session. LED is part of the Signature and Advanced facials.

Different colours of light are used for different skin concerns, and Dilan sets the programme for your skin. Results from LED vary, and it works best as part of a regular routine, not as a one-off.

Facial or microneedling?

Choose a facial for regular care, a brighter look, and clear, comfortable skin with no recovery time. Choose microneedling if you want to change texture, pores or acne scarring, and can allow a day or two of redness. Many clients do both, with facials between microneedling sessions.

Can I have a facial with acne or sensitive skin?

Usually, yes. Dilan adjusts the products, the exfoliation and the extractions to your skin on the day, and will skip steps that could irritate it. Tell Dilan about any prescription creams or tablets you use for your skin, especially retinoids, because they make skin more sensitive to exfoliation and peels.

If your skin is very inflamed or broken on the day, Dilan may suggest a gentler facial or a different date. For active acne, a facial can help keep skin clear, but it won't replace treatment from your GP or a dermatologist.

How should I prepare for a facial?

Come as you are. Dilan removes make-up as part of the cleanse. Stop retinol and exfoliating acids for two or three days before an Advanced Skin Facial, and avoid waxing or threading on your face for a couple of days before any facial. Tell Dilan about any skin conditions, allergies or recent treatments.

Facials are booked by phone or WhatsApp. Each one starts with a short skin consultation on the day, so you don't need a separate appointment first. Call 07399 752632, or message us and tell us which facial you'd like.

What happens at a facial with Dilan?

Every facial starts with a short skin consultation, where Dilan looks at your skin under good light and asks about your routine. Then you lie back and Dilan works through the cleanse, exfoliation and the rest of your treatment. You'll get honest advice on what your skin needs, without a hard sell on products.

Allow about an hour for the Essential Glow, and a little longer for the Signature and Advanced facials. Dilan Bozdag is our partner and skin specialist, a qualified skin practitioner with more than three years' experience.

What should I do after a facial?

Your skin may look a little pink for an hour or so, especially after extractions or the Advanced facial. Skip make-up for the rest of the day if you can, and avoid saunas, steam rooms and hard exercise until the evening. Wear SPF the next morning and every morning after that.

After an enzyme peel or microdermabrasion, leave out retinol and acids for two or three days. If your skin feels sore or breaks out in a way that worries you, message Dilan.

How often should I have a facial?

Dilan usually suggests a facial every four to six weeks. You'll see the brightest result in the first few days after each facial. Booking regularly lets Dilan adjust the facial as your skin changes through the year. Results vary.

Before an event, book your facial three to five days ahead, not the day before. Any pinkness has time to settle, and your skin looks its best. You can see every skin price on the skin treatments page.
