Willow Stream Spa Fairmont The Palm

A quick glance at my (and your) agenda over the past few weeks shows us that this year's event season is already in full swing- although in Dubai there is hardly ever a period with no occasion worth noting.

Since the demanding work hours, in addition to the harmful city dust, will soon take their toll on my skin, I headed to Willow Stream Spa at Fairmont The Palm in Dubai for a Déesse Pro LED mask facial treatment. It is an hour-long facial developed by Dr. Rita Rakus, a London-based doctor who lists celebrities like Madonna, Chrissy Teigen, and Kate Hudson, among her clients.

I soon discover that the treatment is not just about the face, but about taking the whole of me to the state of balance. After being welcomed by the spa's friendly staff, I'm taken to a clean, dimly lit and extremely relaxing treatment room, where a beautician starts by removing makeup and dust from my face, telling me more about the patented HydraFacial technology -dubbed a confidence booster- whose spiral design helps cleanse, exfoliate, and extract impurities and dead skin cells, while infusing vital nutrients such as antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid into the skin. This phase lasts for half an hour, and over the next 20 minutes, she puts a Deesse Pro LED mask on my face, a device that uses low light therapy by way of medical-grade light emitting diodes to expose the skin to clinically proven wavelengths of light, delivered in safe, therapeutic doses- all of this is to say that this is, essentially, a pain-free way to achieve naturally vibrant and clearer skin.
