Frequently Asked Questions

How are facials for men different compared to women’s facials?

Men’s skin is thicker compared to women. Men are not used to a beauty regime/routine of cleansing, toning and moisturising diligently (daily). Over time a build-up of such dead skin cells would dull the complexion and pores would also be blocked by the layers of keratinised cells. This condition is quite common for a lot of men; thus, it is not unusual if a significant number of men suffer from acne, pimples and other blemishes. Most facials for men address this problem. The focus is more on cleansing, exfoliation, toning and moisturising. Congestions and blemishes from these conditions are treated and monitored, and once the skin clears up, the clients are advised to adhere to a daily aftercare regime. For women, the issues are more specific, e.g. hyperpigmented skin, premature ageing, slackened skin etc. Women are more likely to adhere to a beauty routine, and the effect of coarse thickened skin is quite rare. Most beauty centres thus tailor facials for specific problems.

How should I prepare my skin for the Hair Removal treatment?

The only suggested preparation is to avoid over-exposure to direct sunlight 2 to 4 weeks in advance. If you are out in the sun we recommend a SPF30 or higher sun block.

What about after treatment?

We recommended you use pure Aloe Vera skin care products to soothe and protect the skin. For two days after treatment, we suggest you avoid stretching exercises as the skin may still be slightly sensitive. Moreover, avoid any skin care products that include alcohol, acid or oil elements for the first 24 hours. For 1 week after the treatment, you should also avoid exposing your skin to direct sunlight.

What is the difference between male and female slimming?

Body fat distribution differs between the sexes. The Body Mass Index (BMI) of women is usually higher than men, while the Waist Hip Ratio (WHR) of men is higher than women. Male adipose tissue is generally centred around the waist (the Common ‘beer belly’ syndrome) and is not easily dispersed. Men usually have a tougher time shaping and toning the body than women.

Why is exercise not the answer?

Exercise is useful for cardiovascular health but cannot deliver the targeted body-shaping that comes from breaking up and dispersing fatty deposits. Indeed, if you exercise in the wrong way, it can make things worse by trapping adipose tissue inside muscle fibre. Exercise also requires time and opportunity that many of today’s men lack.
