iS CLINICAL FOAMING
ENZYME TREATMENT
What is the Foaming Enzyme Treatment?
Designed to revive tired and congested skin, this results driven treatment features a powerful Foaming Enzyme Masque system, combining papaya & pineapple enzymes with a potent clinical level grade of of glycolic acid. A combination of the highest grade pharmaceutical grade strength complexes and serums are incorporated to reveal brighter, re-energized and tighter radiant skin.
How does it work?
This professional treatment provides a luxurious foaming activity while the bio active ingredients exfoliate and deep cleanse the pores to reveal a polished radiant complexion. The glycolic acid encourages exfoliation of the top layer of the skin whilst the fruit enzymes work by dissolving and breaking down the proteins holding the dead skin cells together.
