Men
THE MAN-UAL
Skincare consultation
If you are new to skincare or have spent years borrowing products from your partner’s bathroom shelf, we offer a ‘mansplanation’ either in clinic or over zoom. During this consultation, we introduce you to the basics of skincare for men with products formulated specifically for male skin types and needs. Males have different skin textures and concerns and therefore, we have very simple and effective steps and products to begin your skincare journey. Looking after your skin is self-care. If you’ve only ever shaved and sprayed some cologne, we only ask you to add in a few minutes daily for your grooming routine to see results.
illuMANate HYDRAFACIAL
Resurface and rejuvenate
Our iconic HydraFacial delivers instant results without downtime, and we have tailored it for men with a specific tip selected based on skin thickness. For essential skin rejuvenation, the HydraFacial uses advanced patented technology to cleanse, extract, and hydrate skin. This treatment does not require a shaved face and treats skin concerns such as acne, dryness, redness, and wrinkles. Following exfoliation and extractions, skin is infused with intensive nutrients, peptides, and antioxidants, that have been selected for male skin. Following this, a Light Emitting Diode (LED) Therapy treatment will be performed for 20 minutes to stimulate healing. During this relaxing time, arms and hands will be massaged.
ALPHA-MALE FACIAL
Advanced multi-stage treatment
With an innovative approach to skincare, the Alpha-Male facial is a multi-stage treatment for men looking to take their skin to the next level. Identifying the skin’s needs and condition, the first step of this transformative treatment is Frac3, a non-ablative treatment with minimal downtime and instant results using the innovative Fotona laser. Skin Is rejuvenated due to collagen boosting heated pulses. Tone, texture and tightness improves while pores, redness and sunspots are targeted. The IlluMANate HydraFacial follows Frac3 and involves the use of advanced patented technology to cleanse, extract and hydrate skin with nutrients, peptides and antioxidants. To complete the Alpha-Male Facial, a Light Emitting Diode (LED) Therapy treatment will be performed for 20 minutes. Depending on skin type or concern, a blue or red light will be selected to stimulate healing.

“Find a job you love and you will never work a day in your life” Confucius.
Ever since I was a young girl, I was captivated by the world of beauty: the creams, textures, and scents that transformed a person's appearance and mood. I vividly remember accompanying my mother to her facial appointment at the beauty parlour and being mesmerized by the elegant beautician in her white outfit. She exuded grace and her exquisite scent enveloped the room. In her presence, I felt a sense of calm and belonging. From that moment, I knew I wanted to follow in her footsteps.
In 2001, I graduated with a diploma in beauty therapy from Victoria University. Seeking new experiences and a desire to learn, I made the leap to Europe in 2006. It was there that I discovered the immaculate spa industry, working at the most prestigious 5-star spas in Paris. With my bilingual abilities, I even transitioned to an international training role within the same company. I had the opportunity to attend luxury beauty events on the French Riviera during the festive seasons.
These incredible experiences opened doors to new opportunities for my career. I embraced my first managerial role as the head of a Parisian skin and body center, specializing in advanced laser hair removal, body contouring solutions, and cutting-edge anti-aging treatments.
In 2011, life brought me back to Melbourne, and shortly after, I became a mother. Determined to expand my knowledge, I pursued a bachelor's degree in dermal sciences. This path introduced me to the world of cosmetic medicine, where I had the privilege of working alongside skilled cosmedic physicians and surgeons in their facilities.
Today, I am incredibly grateful to have turned my passion into a rewarding 23-year career. I have had the opportunity to work with renowned cosmeceutical brands, collaborate with exceptional therapists and practitioners, and gain valuable insights into the world of skin health.
Find a job you love, and you truly will never work a day in your life. I can confidently say that I have found that love, and I am thrilled to continue practicing my skills and sharing my knowledge in the pursuit of healthy and radiant skin for all.
