Question 1

What exactly is the Hydrating Facial Advanced?

Accepted Answer

The Hydrating Facial Advanced at Cloud 9 is a multi-step clinical facial that combines deep cleansing, exfoliation, gentle extraction and intensive serum infusion within a single session. It is designed to deliver immediately visible improvement in skin clarity, smoothness and hydration — the treatment most clients describe as the most transformative facial they have experienced.

Question 2

How does it differ from a standard facial?

Accepted Answer

A standard facial typically involves cleansing, massage and a mask. The Hydrating Facial Advanced uses professional-grade technology and layered active serums to deliver deeper cleansing, more thorough exfoliation, targeted extraction and intensive hydration infusion — producing results that a conventional facial is not designed to achieve.

Question 3

Will it work for my skin type?

Accepted Answer

The treatment is adaptable to all skin types — oily, dry, combination, sensitive and mature. Your practitioner selects the appropriate serum formulations and treatment intensity based on your skin profile during your consultation, ensuring the session is tailored to your needs on the day.

Question 4

How long does a session take?

Accepted Answer

A full session typically runs 60 to 75 minutes. This includes time for your consultation, serum selection and all treatment stages — ensuring the session is thorough rather than rushed.

Question 5

Can Knutsford clients book a course of treatments?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A course of three sessions is available at £130, representing a saving of £35 compared to individual sessions. For clients seeking progressive improvement in skin quality over time, a structured course is the most effective and cost-efficient approach.

Question 6

How quickly will I notice results?

Accepted Answer

Results are immediate. Most clients observe a clear difference in skin clarity, smoothness and radiance directly after treatment. Many describe a noticeable glow in the days following. With a regular programme, these improvements build progressively.

Question 7

Is there any preparation or aftercare I should know about?

Accepted Answer

Avoid retinoids and exfoliating acids for 48 hours before your appointment. After treatment, use SPF diligently and avoid strong active products for 24 hours. Your practitioner provides complete written aftercare guidance before you leave the clinic.
