the Glow up facial- 60mins

Some facials maintain your skin. The Glow Up transforms it. In 60 minutes, your skin is resurfaced, nourished, treated with technology and sent back out into the world looking genuinely, visibly different. The kind of different that makes people ask what you have been doing.

This is our signature multi-technology treatment, combining in-motion IPL, LED therapy, high-performance actives and deeply revitalising serums into one expertly sequenced session. Each step works on a different level of the skin: tone, texture, collagen, hydration and radiance.

Your therapist reads your skin on the day and adjusts accordingly, so what you receive is never a fixed formula but always exactly what your skin needs most. The result is a lit-from-within glow with zero downtime and no recovery needed. 

What happens in your session

01 –Gentle resurfacing

The treatment begins by gently exfoliating the top layer of skin cell that dulls your complexion and prevents anything underneath from working properly. This sets the foundation for everything that follows and immediately improves the skin’s texture and receptivity.

02 -Hydrating sheet mask

A deeply hydrating sheet mask is applied to flood the skin with moisture. This step plumps fine lines, soothes any sensitivity and creates the optimal hydrated environment for the IPL to deliver its best results. Well-hydrated skin responds more effectively to light-based treatments, so this is a more important step than it might look.

03 -In-motion IPL

Our in-motion IPL device glides continuously across the skin, delivering even, overlapping pulses of broad-spectrum light that target pigmentation, refine texture and stimulate collagen production. Unlike traditional IPL, the in-motion delivery means a warmer, more comfortable sensation and more consistent results across the entire face.

04 -Shock ampoule

The treatment closes with a concentrated shock ampoule, a high-potency shot of active ingredients designed to amplify every result achieved in the steps before it. Think of it as the final push that takes your skin from great to extraordinary. This is where the real glow lands, and why clients always leave looking so noticeably different.

Walk in looking tired. Walk out looking like you had the best sleep of your life.

This is our award-winning anti-ageing facial, celebrated for its powerful results and fully customisable approach. It combines IPL skin rejuvenation, fractionated laser, and expert professional care to address the full spectrum of ageing concerns—fine lines, pigmentation, glycation, loss of firmness, and uneven skin tone. We can also add treatment for the neck and décolletage, offering full-face and neckline rejuvenation where it’s often most needed.
We start with IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) to target pigmentation, redness, and sun damage while stimulating collagen using controlled light energy. This improves skin clarity, texture, and radiance.
We then go deeper with fractionated laser, which delivers micro-columns of thermal energy into the skin. This activates the body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production for firmer, smoother, more youthful skin. It’s ideal for deeper wrinkles, loss of firmness, and more advanced signs of ageing.
These areas are often the first to show signs of ageing due to thinner skin and less protection from skincare and SPF. Treating the neck and décolletage helps restore skin firmness, improve texture, and target pigmentation and sun damage—creating a seamless, youthful look from face to chest.
Most clients find it very comfortable. IPL feels warm on the skin, while the fractionated laser has a prickly, heated sensation. No numbing is required, and treatments are well tolerated.
You may experience mild redness or dryness for up to 3 days. This is part of the skin’s natural renewal process. Most clients return to their normal routine immediately, and makeup can usually be worn the next day.
For optimal, long-term results, we recommend a course of 4–6 sessions, spaced 4 weeks apart. Each session builds collagen and strengthens skin integrity. To maintain your results, we suggest top-up treatments every 12 months.
Absolutely. Glycation is a key cause of skin ageing, leading to stiffness and loss of elasticity as sugars break down collagen. This facial helps counteract glycation by stimulating fresh collagen production, restoring skin tone, bounce, and resilience.
IPL and laser treatments are best suited to light to medium Fitzpatrick skin types. For darker skin tones, we offer highly effective, safe ageing solutions tailored to your unique skin needs. All clients receive a thorough consultation to determine the best approach.
At Shine, we’re not just another skin clinic in Richmond—we’re known for advanced, layered skin treatments that deliver results. Our award-winning team takes a personalised, honest approach, helping you age confidently with cutting-edge technology and treatments designed to restore, firm, and revitalise your skin.
