My Reading Room

Long and luxurious facial treatments are always wonderful treats, but sometimes, you simply don’t have the time to spare. That’s when you turn to Nu.U’s Silkpeel Dermalinfusion ($250 per session; $1,800 for a 10-session package). It lasts just 45 minutes because several steps are performed at once – so you don’t have to compromise your skincare goals just because you’re time-strapped.

At the heart of this treatment is the unique Silkpeel device, which operates on a vacuum system and has a diamond-dust-coated tip. The latter works on exfoliating skin, removing the dry and damaged top layer, while the vacuum pressure unclogs pores, taking the place of time-consuming manual extraction.

The beauty of it is, the vacuum system also simultaneously delivers serums – including one customised to your skin type and needs – deep into skin. Of professional strength and specially formulated to address specific skin issues, the patented serums can be used in combination to counter several problems at once. All in all, the treatment is said to give immediate, noticeable improvements in terms of skin’s firmness, hydration level, tone and texture.

The medispa also offers the Oxygeneo Premier Facial (winner of Her World Spa Awards 2017 Best Medispa Brightening Face Treatment, Editors’ Choice), which includes an oxygen treatment to help boost circulation and increase the penetration of ingredients.
