BABY FACE: LASER FACIAL
The cult laser facial.
Crowned the London "Cult laser Facial" by Harper's Bazaar, and loved by our A list clientele, the KICHI Baby Face is our signature resurfacing treatment.
It accelerates cellular renewal to fade sun damage and acne scarring, and opens dermis-level microchannels so targeted serums absorb up to 90% deeper. Suitable for all skin types, it softens fine lines, refines pores and evens tone — for visibly fresher skin and a glow that lasts up to eight weeks.
TREATMENT DETAILS
Suitability
Suitable for all skin types, including dry and sensitive skin. Laser settings are carefully adjusted to suit each client’s skin tone, sensitivity and desired outcome, with resurfacing depths ranging from level 5–20.
Consultation
A separate skin consultation is not required before booking the Baby Face laser facial, as the treatment is suitable for all skin types and fully customised during your appointment.
If you would like personalised advice beforehand, you can send a photo of your skin via WhatsApp for guidance from a KICHI Expert. We also offer a £20 video consultation online, which is fully redeemable against your treatment.
Duration
45–60 minutes, including a 20-minute numbing cream application.
Additional Benefits
Complimentary Therabody Recovery Boots and LED session included. Please ask your KICHI Expert.
SENSATION
- This laser treatment feels surprisingly comfortable, comparable to a mild sunburn. After 20 minutes of numbing under infrared light, the skin is fully desensitized. The laser application itself takes just 5 minutes.
- Please note: Thullium laser does not require eye protection, we work up to the eye line with the laser. The bean shown in the image is not the laser but a guide light for the therapist.
PRE-TREATMENT
Pre-Care: Before You Visit
Good to know:
Suitable for all skin types, with energy levels and settings customised to your individual needs.
Treatment results peak on day 10, so please book at least 10 days before an event.
We recommend preparing your skin with the right serum for 48 hours before and one month after treatment. With 90% absorption through open microchannels, the right product elevates your results.
Recommended serums to prepare:
For ageing, glow, and general skin health: Vitamin C serum twice daily for 48 hours before treatment, then continue once daily for one month after.
For acne scarring, inflammatory hyperpigmentation, melasma, or rosacea: Tranexamic acid serum twice daily for 48 hours before treatment, then continue once daily for one month after. We recommend Mesoestetic Melan Tran3X Intensive Depigmentation Concentrate.
Please avoid:
- Prescription retinoids 5 days before treatment.
- Chemical exfoliants 3 days before treatment.
- Harsh chemical peels 1 month before treatment.
- Injectables 2 weeks before treatment.
- Sun-tanning or self-tanner 1 week before treatment.
POST TREATMENT
Post-Care: Baby Face & Flawless Facial
For the next 24 hours:
- Avoid wearing foundation for 24 hours. The microchannels are open post-treatment — keeping skin clean maximises results and avoids irritation.
- Avoid swimming, excessive exercise, saunas, and steam rooms for 24 hours.
- Apply a vitamin C serum twice daily for the first 48 hours to elevate and enhance your results.
- For acne scarring and PIH: Apply a Tranexamic acid serum twice daily for the first 48 hours, then once daily ongoing. We recommend the Mesoestetic Melan Tran3X Intensive Depigmentation Concentrate.
For the next 7 days:
- Avoid chemical exfoliants, including AHAs and BHAs, for 7 days.
- Avoid self-tanner for 7 days.
- Focus on hydration. We recommend KICHI Forever Oil.
For the next 14 days:
- Avoid direct sun exposure and use SPF 30 or higher daily. There's no need to stay indoors — we simply advise against deliberately sun-tanning the face.
- Avoid injectable treatments for two weeks.
For the next month:
- Avoid chemical peels for one month and laser treatments for two weeks.
Downtime and what to expect:
- This facial has little to no downtime. Most clients leave the clinic with light redness that settles within a few hours. At higher resurfacing levels, redness may occasionally last longer.
- Sensitive skin types, including rosacea, may experience redness the day after treatment. We adjust settings accordingly for these skin types.
- Your skin may feel dry and develop a subtle sandpaper texture for 5–7 days. This is completely normal and invisible to others — you can go about your normal routine.
- A laser purge is normal for acne-prone skin — this is a natural self-cleansing process that results in clearer skin over time.
- Around day 10, your skin will gently and invisibly shed, revealing a fresh, glowing complexion beneath.
- For best results, we recommend a course of six sessions, available at a saving on individual session rates. View our skin courses.
- PIH correction requires a minimum of six sessions, with a noticeable improvement after each one. We also recommend adding a Salmon DNA Booster to further support pigmentation removal.
Please note: This facial is a bespoke treatment designed to cater to your unique needs and preferences.
Also as a course of three — £950
