Aqua Gold

frequently asked questions

1. How can AquaGold help me?

   AquaGold can help with hyperpigmentation, scars, enlarged pores and dehydration – all while helping to brighten skin. It’s a personalised, painless and precision treatment that applies a cocktail of ingredients proven to benefit your skin’s appearance and revitalise on a deep level. From delivering hydration to clarifying and rejuvenating, it can even be used on areas such as the neck, décolletage and hands.

2. What happens during an appointment?

   After your consultation, we’ll carry out your treatment, developing a unique blend of ingredients designed to target your specific concerns. It uses 24-carat gold screw thread and extremely fine needles to deliver your serum, applied through a gentle stamping motion. AquaGold is also known for being a painless treatment, which means you’ll be comfortable throughout. We also offer AquaGold as part of our Adonia Golden Facial.

3. How long does AquaGold take?

   Depending on how many areas you’re looking to treat, we can carry out treatment in around half an hour. Once completed, you’ll feel thoroughly refreshed and rejuvenated.

4. How long do the results last?

   Most of our patients enjoy results within a week, which will last for up to 4 months. It can be performed as a regular treatment or for a special occasion such as a wedding, holiday or anniversary. It has little in the way of side-effects or downtime, with lasting results for your skin.

5. Will I need repeat treatments?

   As with all facial aesthetics treatments, results will fade over time and in order to prolong them, the treatment may need repeating. We recommend AquaGold treatment every 4-6 weeks to keep skin looking and feeling fresh, bright and with a healthy, luminous glow.

6. Are there any risks related to AquaGold?

   Risks are minimal. Some people do experience some slight redness, which usually passes within an hour of treatment.

7. What is the recovery time?

   There’s no recovery time needed – you’ll be able to carry on with your normal activities, including work, after your treatment.

8. What will my results look like?

   You should notice brighter, rejuvenated skin within a week of treatment. Signs of ageing, and areas of large pores and hyperpigmentation, will be visibly improved. Results will vary between patients.

9. How do I care for my skin afterwards?

   We recommend avoiding make-up for 24 hours and to protect the skin from the sun. It’s also a good idea to avoid heat treatments (spa, sauna etc.) which could cause swelling.
