I think we can all admit sometimes we envy the way celebrities glow while walking the red carpet, or when we see their gorgeous glass skin plastered on our Instagram feed. Sometimes it’s a level of beauty that can feel unattainable, but in recent years more and more celebrities have opened up about the beauty treatments and procedures they frequent (meaning we can add them to our when I win the lottery list in our notes apps), but there’s one treatment in particular that we keep seeing popping up.
Whilst we believe everyone is born with their own unique beauty, we don’t know anyone who would say no to the option of having more glowy, smoother, more radiant-looking skin. We at VOIR keep an avid eye on the world of A-list beauty treatments and were so intrigued to see the sheer volume of celebs dabbling in Oxylight Facials. This week we decided to try one for ourselves with the fantastic Justyna at GA Clinic and we need to tell you all about it. https://www.gennarodellaquila.co.uk/

Oxylight facials are a totally non-invasive procedure that combines various cutting-edge skincare technologies like LED light, high-pressure oxygen and negative pressure therapy systems. One of the reasons this treatment in particular is having a major moment in the limelight is because of its versatility due to the variety of technologies used.
Whether you are struggling with fine lines, wrinkles, acne, scars, hyperpigmentation, enlarged pores, sagging skin and other signs of ageing, this 90-minute treatment is your new fairy godmother of skincare.
In recent years Oxylight Facials have been the particularly favoured facials for red carpet and everyday alike by the rich and famous, most notably including Madonna. Back in 2017 when it surfaced that Madonna was an Oxylight superfan, several articles spoke about it stating it was “a supercharged, state-of-the-art facial that employs more than one skincare technology” and a “complete workout for the skin”. GA Clinic offers VIP treatments due to the demand for A-listers. The Oxylight Facial incorporates the basics of a facial with these far more cutting-edge treatments to target a wide field of skin concerns.
The facial was broken down into steps and products by Justyna for us every step of the way making it so much easier to understand. She first focused on giving the skin an antioxidant boost, that aims to brighten, refresh, and rejuvenate the complexion. This was done by using a lotion, serum and mask as well as, can you believe it, placenta serum, which helps with the post-inflammatory marks and boosts the healing processes of the skin.
Among the many currently well-known and commonly used antioxidants are coenzyme Q10, polyphenols, vitamin C, and lipoic acid, however, platinum is proven to be the most powerful antioxidant. Many researchers support platinum over other antioxidants as the “Final Weapon” when it comes to skin rejuvenation. Platinum works against all forms of active oxygen and acts as a catalyst which means it doesn’t lose its activity once they react with oxidants and it remains active as long as it stays in the skin.

The Oxylight Facial starts with microdermabrasion and lymphatic drainage, it then moves onto use an ultrasound on the skin to target deep hydration and utilizes microcurrents to lift and tighten the muscles – over time our muscles loosen and begin to sag, and this facial tones and tightens them right back up.
The treatment also included oxygen infusion, which is built to be as refreshing as the air in the Alps and targets blackheads and discolouration. Justyna recommended this facial be done 1-2 times a week for 8 sessions to achieve the most dramatic and perfect results.
We feel like this is the holy grail of skincare treatments. This magic cocktail of LED light therapy, oxygen infusion, microcurrent stimulation, and gentle exfoliation is the perfect mix of technologies. The facial stimulates collagen production and promotes cell regeneration. This helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and texture, resulting in smoother and more youthful-looking skin.
