Time to pamper myself again at Vogue clinic! I spent 2 hours enjoying an advanced aqua peel oxyfacial away from all the work and babysitting. Thanks Mr hubby for settling baby Bing and allowing some me time :)

What is advanced aqua peel oxyfacial?
It's a process of hydrating and oxygenating the skin in order to cleanse, nourish and brighten the face.
What's the benefit of aqual peel oxyfacial?
- Non-Invasive & No Downtime
- Hydrate Skin for dewy effect
- Removal of Dead Skin Cells, Sebum, Impurities
- Black Head & White Head Removal
- Demodex Folliculorum Removal
- Improvement of Acne Skin
- Skin tightening
- Skin Nourishing & Hydrating
- Intensive Skin Whitening
Just in case you wonder what's Demodex, it's a skin mite that's thought to worsen acne. I have written about it here previously.
Go through the steps of the facial with me and you will understand why it's really easy enjoyment.
Step 1 Deep cleansing
Lie down in relaxing background music for a good and thorough cleaning that removes all traces of makeup residue and impurities on the face. The face is then steamed for 5 minutes to open up the pores for the following treatment.
Step 2 Blackhead aqua suctioning aka aqua peel
Using gentle suction, this creates a vacuum that instills an AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) or BHA (beta hydroxy acid) solution into the pores directly which is then sucked back, bringing all the blackhead and impurities with it. These solutions are widely used for exfoliation, hence being named as 'peel'.
Step 3 Manual blackhead extraction
Our lovely nurse at Vogue Clinic is very gentle when she extracts the blackheads. Instead of using a rough extractor which may leave scars (a big no no!), she uses a needle to pick up these nasty stuff. It used to be a dreaded step during facial, but at Vogue there's no pain at all!
Step 4 Vogue Signature Volcano Bubble Mask
Excuse my funny face :p so puffed up and looking like a cloud. It's similar to a foaming cleanser only it's better because it rejuvenates the skin and cleanse it at the same time. The bubbles formed are a result of reaction with oxygen which deliver antioxidants into the skin. It felt as if something kept crawling/touching my face and popping away. Interesting sensation.
Step 4 Icy cooling pore tightening gun
After all the washing, cool down the skin and shrink the pores with this cold gun that feels just like a cold compress.
Step 5 O2 injector gun
Now my face can never be lack of oxygen again with this high concentration of oxygen infused directly. These are age defying treatments that I need so badly as I have a busy schedule as a full-time doctor, part-time blogger and full-time mother.
Step 6 Ultrasonic wave hydroskin penetrator
This low frequency ultrasound wave ensures serum is able to penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin.
Step 7 hydrating blue LED light mask
It actually has 4 colours and make me look at iron girl :p This is a very detailed explanation on how it works.
LED Light Therapy are wavelengths that are able to pass through tissue up to 1 inch deep. Red and near-infrared have beneficial effects on cells by “kick-starting” them into immediately creating more ATP (cellular energy) and increasing DNA and RNA activity. Red light LED stimulates the fibroblasts that produce collagen, which gives young skin its plump look. LED machines can also minimize fine lines and wrinkles, treat sun-damage and stretch marks, and reduce redness.
Red LED Light
Red LED Light, featured on Dr. Oz and one of Hollywood’s top beauty secrets, has the ability to reach down into all the layers of the skin where it rejuvenates, stimulates collagen production, prompts cellular repair, and increases circulation promoting a more vibrant and youthful complexion. Red LED lights work synergistically to deliver optimal skin rejuvenation. This combination of LED lights is ideal for deeper lines and wrinkles, scarring, promoting a more even skin tone, and burning fat.
Blue LED Light
Blue LED light has been proven to have powerful anti-bacterial properties that have the ability to kill the acne causing bacteria, P. acnes. It prevents and treats acne. Blue light also helps to purify the skin, stabilize oil glands, and sooth inflammation.
Orange LED Light
Orange light helps to revitalize the skin. It has been shown to bring vitality to dull and lifeless complexions. Orange light is good for bringing a glow to the skin for special occasions.
Yellow LED Light
Yellow light reduces the appearance of redness, swelling, and inflammation. This color of light is beneficial for Rosacea and treating burns such as sunburns. Also stimulates the production of red blood cells in the skin and is effective in treating abnormal pigmentation (hypo and hyper), improving lymphatic function, and stimulating circulation.
Green LED Light
Green light is absorbed into the skin where it has a calming effect. It helps to lighten hyper-pigmentation spots revealing a brighter complexion. The calming effect also has anti-inflammatory properties that soothe the surface of the skin. Green LED Therapy is used to treat dilated capillaries, sagging skin around the eyes, under eye circles, hyperpigmentation and sun spots, even sagging breasts.
Purple LED Light
Purple LED light therapy increases cell regeneration. It decreases the telomeres of DNA in the cell to essentially bring it back to a stem cell-like (brand new cell) state so that it can divide and create new cells.
Finally a soothing head and neck massage. My weekend could never been better! Tempted to try it yourself? Contact Vogue Clinic today :)
