A Gentler Way To Firm, Refresh And Bring Back Your Skin’s Glow

When your skin is looking tired after long days, late nights or too much time in air-conditioning, sometimes it needs more than another layer of serum. And if your skin is sensitive, finding a treatment that gives it extra care without feeling overly intense can be another challenge.

That is where the NIR Glow Medi-Facial at Bioskin Luxe Aesthetic Clinic comes in. Winner of Best Glow-Boosting Medi-Facial at this year’s Spa & Wellness Awards, the treatment combines near-infrared (NIR) technology with traditional facial steps designed to hydrate, soothe and refresh the complexion.

A gentle approach to glow and firmness 

The experience starts on a relaxing note with aromatherapy and a double cleanse, followed by a gentle enzyme scrub that helps loosen and lift away dead surface skin cells and impurities. This leaves the complexion feeling smoother and prepped for the steps that follow. 

Then comes the facial’s key step: 15 minutes of NIR Glow Therapy, which delivers near-infrared light beneath the skin’s surface. Designed to support collagen production and the skin’s natural repair processes, the treatment aims to improve the appearance of firmness, elasticity and texture while supporting the skin barrier and its ability to retain moisture. 

It is suitable for skin that feels dry, weakened, sensitive or stressed, as well as complexions that simply need a pick-me-up. 

“The NIR therapy felt comfortable,” said Spa Awards reviewer Rebecca Wong, adding that she could barely feel the treatment even as the device came into contact with her skin.

The brightness of the device initially made her eyes smart, but her therapist noticed this and added more eye covering. Rebecca also appreciated that the therapist carefully avoided the sides of her eyes, where she was experiencing some redness from dermatitis.

A revitalising boost for tired, dull skin

After the technology-led portion, the treatment shifts into pampering territory with a 4-in-1 facial massage, followed by a Pro-Recovery Mask and scalp massage.

Formulated with hyaluronic acid, Ceramide 3 and soothing portulaca extract, the Pro-Recovery Mask helps replenish moisture, support the skin barrier and calm stressed skin after the NIR step.

After the session, Rebecca noted that her complexion appeared brighter and plumper. Her therapist also advised that treatments need to be performed consistently over multiple sessions to assess longer-term results.

For anyone wanting a little extra glow before a special occasion, or simply some pampering after a demanding week, the 60-minute treatment brings together light-based technology and hands-on facial care in a gentle, relaxing experience.

The NIR Glow Medi-Facial is available at $531.92 (before GST) for a 60-minute session. Book your appointment here.
