This massage based add-on stimulates your lymphatic system into action, clearing lymph vessels which act like a drainage system for your skin. With these vessels clear, your skin’s ability to undertake the natural processes of good skin health are restored. | Blue LED lights directly inhibit bacteria which may cause acne spread or outbreaks in sensitive skin or skin with rosacea. Red LED lights stimulate your skin’s collagen helping promote strong, healthy, and voluminous skin. |

We would also ask that you shave 24 hrs before your appointment. We can work around beards but to get the most from it, it’s best you’re clean shaven
