6 of Our Favourite New Professional Treatments
New professional beauty treatments are always a season of excitement for aficionados and experts alike. This time around, we are casting a spotlight on six groundbreaking treatments that have recently graced the wellness landscape, each promising a blend of rejuvenation and relaxation, from the brand new triple exfoliation peel from Medik8 to the most luxurious treatment on the market from Evidens de Beauté, exclusively at Harrods.
Dermalogica Melanopro Peel Treatment
The Melanopro Peel System is a comprehensive skin care program to visibly reduce hyperpigmentation and skin tone irregularities. It’s a 2-phase system; The first phase is performed by a skin care professional in a skin centre. The second phase is continued at home with prescribed products. This advanced peel treatment is suitable for all skin tones including melanin-rich skin.
Your Melanopro treatment begins with gentle cleansing then a peeling masque is applied. This peeling masque will need to stay on the skin between 4-7 hours, with the exact duration determined for you by your skin care professional. You will be given thorough instructions on the removal process which you do at home. 24 hours (or later) after you remove the peeling masque at home, you will start using the prescribed home care products. The Continuous Resurfacing Cream is applied daily until finished, lasting approximately 6 weeks. You also receive UltraCalming Mist to assist with skin soothing and hydration.
Your daily skin care regimen will be restricted to the Melanopro home care products for the duration of the treatment (up to 6 weeks) and you will be given comprehensive guidelines on how to look after your skin during this phase of treatment, plus regular check-ins with your skin professional for the duration of the treatment program.
Treatments available at Dermalogica stores across the UK.
MEGAN by Skeyndor
I was one of the first people in the UK to try the game changing Megan treatment by Skeyndor at The Beautique by Sam. The treatment is really unique because of its Tri Synergy Tech which combines Hi Freq, Dermaboost, and Deep RGB to work together and breathe new life into your skin. The treatment works to infuse the powerful Skeyndor ingredients from their high-performing cosmeceutical lines deep into the skin for fantastic effects.
The magic begins with Hi-Freq, a high-frequency monopolar capacitive current that, when paired with the high-performance conductive Hi Freq Gel, stimulates, regenerates, and reshapes the skin's deepest tissues. The water-free gel formula ensures safety for therapists working at higher temperatures without electric arcs, while its specially chosen ingredients activate the skin, improving tolerance and comfort.
Next in line are Dermaboost and Deep RGB technologies. Dermaboost employs hydroelectroporation currents to enhance penetration and absorption of LED Active ingredients, tailored for the MEGAN system. Simultaneously, Deep RGB technique activates LED Active photoactive concentrates through Cosmetic Drone technology. This cutting-edge delivery system utilizes microcapsules with cellular GPS, ensuring the active ingredients precisely target and treat the intended cells.
Each beam of light - red, green, or blue - penetrates different skin levels, accompanied by specific concentrates addressing diverse needs: pores, brightness, firmness, blemishes, wrinkles, and flaccidity.

Evidens De Beauté The Extreme Recharge 360-degree Ceremony
With the treatments located exclusively in the opulent Harrods, it was given that the treatment would be luxurious, but it went beyond that into a pampering session worthy of royals - I went in with makeup and left makeup-free with glowy skin.
The eighty-minute treatment is specifically designed to magnify skin’s beauty, soothe signs of ageing, and stimulate cell renewal, this ceremony is dedicated to mature, tired, and dull looking skin. It helps to reshape facial contours, reduces the appearance of wrinkles, and brightens the complexion. The skin regains firmness, density, vitality, and radiance. The delicate eye area feels rejuvenated, toned, and appears visibly younger, thanks to the application of eye patches.
The effect of the treatment comes from layering of the Evidens de Beauté products, which worked in synergy to restore the skin, and as there are no harsh chemicals, it is perfect for all skin types, even the most sensitive skin. The treatment also features the brand new Evidens De Beauté Extreme Mask worth £1,000 for an extra touch of splendour.
Treatments exclusively available at Harrods.
