Restore calm, clear, radiant skin

About Rosacea Treatment

Rosacea is a common skin condition that can cause persistent redness, sensitivity, and visible inflammation. At VL Aesthetics in Carlisle, the Fire & Ice Facial is used as a professional treatment to support improved skin clarity and comfort for individuals managing rosacea-prone skin.

This clinically developed medical facial combines two specialised masques designed to resurface the skin while supporting gentle exfoliation and improved circulation. The treatment can help calm visible redness, refine uneven skin texture, and improve overall skin tone while maintaining a controlled and comfortable treatment experience.

Treatments are carried out by experienced practitioners following a professional skin assessment to ensure suitability for your skin type and concerns. Book a consultation today to discuss whether the Fire & Ice Facial is appropriate for you.

The Fire & Ice Facial works through a two-step process involving the application of two distinct masques designed to resurface and rejuvenate the skin.

1) Resurfacing Masque (Fire):

  • Ingredients: The first masque, often referred to as the "Fire" masque, contains powerful botanical acids such as glycolic acid, retinol, and niacinamide.
  • Action: This masque exfoliates the skin by removing dead skin cells and promoting increased blood circulation. The ingredients work to open up pores, improve skin texture, and address signs of ageing such as fine lines and wrinkles. The sensation experienced can be warm or tingling, resembling a "fire" effect.
  • Benefits: The exfoliation process helps to deeply cleanse the skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and prepare the skin for the next step.

2) Rejuvenating Masque (Ice):

  • Ingredients: The second masque, known as the "Ice" masque, is formulated with soothing and hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, green tea extract, and other calming agents.
  • Action: This masque cools and soothes the skin, reducing any redness or inflammation caused by the first masque. It deeply hydrates and nourishes the skin, promoting a calming and soothing effect.
  • Benefits: This step locks in moisture, enhances overall skin health, and leaves the skin feeling refreshed and revitalised. The "Ice" masque provides a cooling sensation, which contrasts with the initial warmth of the "Fire" masque, creating a balanced and rejuvenating experience.

Results:

  • Immediate, Visible Results: The combination of these two masques delivers immediate improvements in skin texture and appearance. You will notice smoother, more radiant skin right after the treatment.
  • No Downtime: One of the key benefits of the Fire & Ice Facial is that it delivers these results without any downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately.

This medical facial is ideal for treating fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, problematic skin, uneven skin tone and texture, acne, and acne scars. It also promotes overall skin health by stimulating cellular renewal.
