You brush your teeth every day and visit the dentist regularly. You service your car every year. But how often do you give your skin the same level of professional attention?
Your skin is your largest organ, and it works hard — dealing with pollution, UV exposure, makeup, stress, and the natural ageing process every single day. While a good home skincare routine is essential, professional facials go deeper, addressing concerns that cleansers and moisturisers simply cannot reach.
What Happens During a Professional Facial?
At Stella Salon, every facial begins with a skin analysis and consultation. We assess your skin type, current condition, and any specific concerns — whether that is dryness, congestion, pigmentation, sensitivity, fine lines, or dullness.
A typical facial includes deep cleansing and exfoliation to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores, extraction of blackheads and congestion (if needed), a targeted treatment mask based on your skin's needs, facial massage to boost circulation and lymphatic drainage, moisturising and SPF application, and personalised advice on home skincare.
How Often Should You Have a Facial?
For most people, a professional facial every four to six weeks aligns perfectly with your skin's natural cell turnover cycle. If you are preparing for a special event — a wedding, holiday, or important occasion — we recommend starting a course of treatments at least two to three months in advance.

We offer a range of facials from express refresh treatments (perfect for a lunchtime visit) to advanced anti-ageing facials using professional-grade products. For clients seeking more intensive results, we also offer microneedling and Profhilo (see our separate blog posts on these treatments).
