ULTIMATE RADIANT GLOW EXPERIENCE AT SENSE OF TOUCH

The Buzz: A marathon treatment at two-and-a-half hours, Sense of Touch’s two-in-one treatment combines a HydraFacial with their new SkinPen precision microneedling treatment. Sense of Touch is currently the only spa offering this treatment in Hong Kong. The Treatment: We commence with the four-step HydraFacial, which is designed to infuse hydration simultaneously as you resurface the skin, meaning your skin is nourished and not stressed by the treatment. The therapist also used some LED light therapy to address some spots and pigmentation. After we finish, the 90-minute SkinPen microneedling begins. The SkinPen uses tiny needles to create imperceptible lesions in the skin, which in turn promotes collagen production and healing. In addition to improving the appearance of wrinkles, it also works wonders on acne scars. Sure, it can be a bit uncomfortable, but who said looking good was easy? The Verdict: OMG - the results! After this marathon session, our skin was glowing from the inside out. If you’re worried about looking like a human pincushion after the microneedling, don’t - we looked relaxed and refreshed with zero downtime required. For serious results addressing bigger problems, more than one session is recommended.

Cost: Deluxe Hydrafacial: $2,580 (trial price: $2,080); SkinPen: $2,980 (trial price: $1,980). Combine both treatments for $3,680.
