Guess what? Your skincare journey just got an upgrade. Get set for transformative results at The Chaless Wellness and Beauty with its Dermapen 4 microneedling facial.
Living in the busy city of Hong Kong, we all know too well that city air, changeable weather, and everyday stress can really mess with our skin. And hey, we’re all for trying out a 10-step Korean skincare routine or de-stressing with crystals, but don’t we all wish for a miracle facial treatment that could upgrade our skin game in one go? That’s what got us interested in The Chaless’ Dermapen 4 microneedling facial. In a world full of facial treatments, it’s hard to know what’s really worth our time and money. So, I took one for the team and gave this talked-about treatment a shot, to help you figure out if it’s a good fit for your skincare journey.
The Chaless: A tranquil escape in the heart of the city
Stepping into The Chaless Wellness and Beauty immediately transported me from the bustling Hong Kong streets into a serene, rustic oasis. The spa’s decor instantly put me at ease, with a laid back vibe reminiscent of Balinese boutiques. From the moment I entered, the tidy displays of skincare and lifestyle products caught my eye, with local women-run brands like The Blomstre, Xyza, and Arao.
The therapists made me feel right at home, offering tea to help me relax before my treatment while the soothing aromas set the stage to unwind. This showed me one thing: The Chaless delivers more than just treatments – it’s about the full experience of relaxation and rejuvenation.
The miracle of microneedling: Dermapen 4 Facial Treatment
The Chaless’ newest treatment is the Dermapen 4 facial, a technologically advanced form of microneedling. This minimally invasive procedure uses an auto-sterilised pen device with adjustable needle tips to create tiny punctures in the skin’s surface. The therapists can customise the needle depth and speed to target different skin concerns in one session – from lines and wrinkles to acne scarring and uneven texture. As the micro-injuries stimulate collagen production, the pen simultaneously infuses mesotherapy serums packed with nourishing ingredients tailored to your skin goals. The combination of microneedling and customised serums allows this facial to deliver dramatic lifting, firming, brightening, and toning results.
To prep the skin for optimal results, the therapist at The Chaless advised avoiding sun exposure for 2-3 days pre-treatment. They also warned me that post-facial redness may last up to 12 hours as the skin would be working in overdrive to repair and renew itself. While the regenerative process would continue over the next few weeks, she claimed that most clients could expect to see a remarkable glow and brighter, more youthful-looking skin after just one session.
My Dermapen 4 Facial experience
After getting settled on the massage bed, The Chaless’ therapist walked me through what would happen during the treatment. She cleansed away my makeup before guiding me through a relaxing breathwork exercise and delivering a divine facial massage. The therapist then explained the Dermapen device would likely feel prickly against my skin, but a cooling mask at the end would calm any redness. She also gave me a heads up before moving the device to different areas of my skin and promptly adjusted the depth based on my feedback. Despite some tingling, her slow, methodical technique ensured the facial was comfortable.
From the expert massage to the personalised Dermapen approach, the therapist at The Chaless impressed me with her immense skill and care. She took the time to explain each step and made sure I felt at ease. Instead of rushing, she delivered a massage that exceeded my expectations with its length and technique. During the microneedling, she continually checked in about my comfort level and seamlessly adjusted the device as needed. Her graceful demeanour and attentiveness complemented the facial for a truly five-star experience that left me eager to see the luminous results.
Ta-da! A facial that delivers radiant results
After the session, I checked my complexion and was pleasantly surprised by the minimal redness, thanks to the cooling mask. The therapist thoughtfully followed up, asking about my experience while serving another calming cup of tea – a perfect ending to the rejuvenating treatment. In the days after, my skin felt incredibly soft and smooth with reduced texture. Given the customisation for my skin goals and comfort level, I believe The Chaless’ Dermapen 4 facial is worth trying for its ability to target multiple concerns simultaneously. While I was anxious about pain at first, the therapist’s professional yet gentle adjustments ensured the process was not only comfortable but also rewarding.
