MEDfacials Blog - What is the Fire and Ice Facial?

Introducing The Fire and Ice Facial

Loved by celebrities, The Fire & Ice facial treatment has been a top-selling treatment in Beverley Hills. It’s not hard to see why when you read about its impressive results.

The Fire & Ice treatment gives the skin a deep cleanse, leaving it with a beautiful glow. Your skin will feel plumper, smoother and more hydrated, leaving you ready to face the day.
 
This treatment is great as a one-off skin rejuvenation treat, but for more intensive and long-lasting results, we recommend a program of six to optimise your skin.

The Fire & Ice can also help clear acne and improve acne scarring, as part of a treatment program, in conjunction with iS CLINICAL® products available in our shop.

WHY IS IT CALLED FIRE AND ICE?

This intensive clinical facial is designed to rapidly and safely resurface the skin, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, smoothing, softening, and encouraging cellular renewal. The centrepiece of this remarkable treatment system is a combination of two therapeutic masques.

FIRE

The “Fire” portion of the treatment is an extremely powerful Intensive Resurfacing Masque clinically formulated with 18% unbuffered glycolic acid, citric acid, lactic acid, malic acid, vitamin B3, retinol and potent antioxidants, including green tea extracts.


The masque is applied on the face, neck and décolleté for two-to-five minutes. The warmth along with the pleasant fragrance of cinnamon lasts for about two to three minutes.

ICE

The “Ice” part of the facial is a  cool, soothing and intensively hydrating and Rejuvenating Masque with hyaluronic acid, Japanese green tea extracts, aloe vera gel, liquorice extracts, rosemary extracts and grape seed extracts.


This second masque cools the initial peel to leave the skin invigorated and glowing and is applied for about 5 minutes. After a final cleanse; a moisturising serum and a strong sunscreen are applied to the face.

ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS?

Mild redness may be experienced by a few patients but generally, you can return to your daily activities straight away.

As your skin has been newly resurfaced, we recommend using a mild non-abrasive cleanser or other mild product for five days following the procedure and also wear sunscreen and avoid prolonged or direct sun exposure

The Fire & Ice is a firm favourite of Gwyneth Paltrow and Halle Berry using iS CLINICAL® products. This cosmeceutical skincare range is also used by Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Shay Mitchell, Jessica Alba and more.

I’m absolutely delighted with my results! From the initial consultation, Nurse Jane took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I understood the different options available. I really appreciated how she listened to what I wanted and recommended the treatment that was best suited to me. I felt completely comfortable and in very safe hands throughout. The results are fantastic - subtle, natural and exactly what I was hoping for. I’m so pleased and would highly recommend Nurse Jane to anyone considering a treatment.

Having never had any treatments before, I had NeoGen and Botox over the last few months. Jane was amazing! I was quite nervous but she really put me at ease and she explains everything really well. Jane recommended a skincare treatment which has honestly been life changing! I'm incredibly happy with the results and will definitely be back soon!

I would just like to share after researching lots and lots regarding facial laser and other non surgical treatments. I found Dr Joe to be remarkably honest with a thorough listening to assessment. He was genuinely interested in my story, concerns and opinions. It wasn’t about any hard sell at all. I felt completely at ease and felt I could at last trust someone. So far I have had one Neogen treatment and two Derma V treatments. The aftercare is superb. And can always get a response to any query or concerns. I sincerely and wholly recommend Medfacials to anyone that has been disillusioned with the beauty industry. Medfacials is totally trustworthy 💯 Wendy
