Microdermabrasion in Kennington — FAQs
How does microdermabrasion feel?
Like a gentle, gritty exfoliation with a little suction. It is not painful, and your skin may be slightly pink for an hour afterwards.
How far is the salon from Kennington?
About 4.1 miles — about 20 minutes by car. We are on Devonshire Road in Forest Hill, SE23, a few minutes' walk from Forest Hill station, which has direct trains from Kennington. Appointments are by booking only, so there is never a wait when you arrive.
Can it help with stretch marks?
Yes. A course of microdermabrasion improves the texture and appearance of stretch marks, especially newer ones. We often combine it with microneedling for the best result.
Do you do home visits in Kennington?
Yes, for many of our treatments — spray tanning, massage, waxing, lashes, manicures and pedicures and more. Travel to Kennington is £10. Treatments that need the salon environment, such as microneedling, peels and injections, are salon-only.
How many sessions do I need?
One session gives an instant glow. For texture, scarring or stretch marks, a course of six, two weeks apart, is typical.
Do you cover all of SE11?
Yes — every part of SE11, and the neighbouring areas of Oval, Elephant and Castle, Walworth and Lambeth. For home visits the travel fee is the same across the whole area.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Usually yes, as there are no chemicals involved and we can adjust the intensity. We avoid it on active rosacea or broken skin.
How do I book from Kennington?
Book online at any time through our booking page, or call 07803 285619. Evening appointments are available most weekdays and we open on Sundays. Out-of-hours and festive-season bookings carry a small surcharge.
What is the difference between this and a peel?
Microdermabrasion is physical exfoliation; a peel is chemical. They treat similar concerns in different ways, and we will recommend whichever suits your skin — or alternate them.
Do I need a patch test?
For lash extensions, tints, peels, BB Glow and a few other treatments, yes — at least 24 hours before your first appointment. Patch tests are free at the salon, and we can post a kit to Kennington if that is easier.
