Oiliness and congestion
Begin with barrier condition and inflammation rather than assuming stronger exfoliation is needed.
Explore Acne Regulator FacialA considered collection of professional facials, chemical peels and microneedling treatments with Arneta, delivered within a doctor led clinic and selected around your skin rather than a fashionable treatment name.

The most recognisable treatment name is not always the most appropriate choice. Dehydration can make skin look dull. Over exfoliation can make oily skin feel tight. Pigmentation can become more visible when treatment is too aggressive. A consultation helps separate the concern you can see from the condition of the skin underneath it.
Arneta combines more than six years of skincare experience with two years in a professional clinic. Her training includes skincare, facial massage, microneedling and chemical peels. Each plan is selected within her qualifications and within the clinical standards of a doctor led clinic.
This guide compares the cosmetic aim, treatment intensity, appointment time and possible visible recovery for every treatment in the collection. It is a starting point, not a substitute for assessment.

Explore Brightening FacialA hydration focused or customised facial may be more useful than another active product.
Explore Hydra Facial TherapySurface facials and microneedling work at different levels and involve different recovery expectations.
Explore MicroneedlingRenewal, hydration and massage led treatments can be compared without overstating what a facial can achieve.
Explore Grand Retinoid FacialWhen the skin does not fit one category, a customised plan is often the most rational starting point.
Explore Customised FacialExpected cosmetic aim describes what the treatment is designed to support. It is not a promise of a particular result. Skin type, preparation, current products, medicines, lifestyle and aftercare can all affect the response.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Acne Regulator Facial | Oiliness, congestion and blemish prone skin | A cleaner, calmer and more balanced looking complexion | About 60 minutes | Usually little visible recovery |
| Brightening Facial | Dullness, uneven tone and visible discolouration | A fresher, brighter and more even looking complexion | About 60 minutes | Usually little visible recovery |
| Chemical Peel | Dullness, rough texture, fine lines and selected marks | A smoother and more luminous appearance after renewal | About 45 to 60 minutes | Dryness, sensitivity or flaking may occur |
| DNA Repair Facial | Rough texture, visible marks and early lines | A smoother, revitalised and more refined looking surface | About 60 minutes | Mild sensitivity may occur |
| Customised Facial | Several concerns or uncertainty about what to choose | A treatment plan matched to the skin on the day | About 60 minutes | Varies with the selected approach |
| Grand Retinoid Facial | Visible ageing, photoageing and uneven texture | A renewed, smoother and more refined appearance | About 60 minutes | Dryness or flaking may occur |
| Hydra Facial Therapy | Dehydration, dullness and a compromised feeling barrier | A more hydrated, comfortable and plump looking complexion | About 60 minutes | Usually little visible recovery |
| Lifting Facial | Tired appearance, early laxity and loss of freshness | A temporary firmer, refreshed and more radiant appearance | About 60 minutes | Usually little visible recovery |
| Medical Facials | General maintenance, congestion, dryness and dullness | Thoroughly cleansed, conditioned and refreshed looking skin | About 60 minutes | Usually little visible recovery |
| Microneedling and Chemical Peel | Texture and tone concerns requiring a combined plan | Broader visible renewal where combination is proportionate | About 75 minutes | More visible redness, sensitivity or flaking may occur |

Oiliness, congestion and blemish prone skin
A measured facial for oily, congested and blemish prone skin, with cleansing, exfoliation and hydration selected after assessment.
Explore treatment →Dullness, uneven tone and visible discolouration
A professional facial designed to improve the appearance of dullness and uneven tone without promising to erase pigmentation.
Explore treatment →Dullness, rough texture, fine lines and selected marks
A controlled resurfacing treatment in which a selected solution is applied to encourage surface renewal. Strength and suitability require consultation.
Explore treatment →Rough texture, visible marks and early lines
A cosmetic facial for the visible appearance of texture, minor marks and early lines. The name does not mean that the treatment repairs genetic material.
Explore treatment →Several concerns or uncertainty about what to choose
A consultation led facial that allows Arneta to adapt the treatment to hydration, congestion, sensitivity, tone and current priorities.
Explore treatment →Visible ageing, photoageing and uneven texture
A professional renewal facial selected for suitable skin when the aim is improved texture, hydration and a fresher appearance.
Explore treatment →Dehydration, dullness and a compromised feeling barrier
A hydration focused facial for skin that feels dry, tight or temporarily depleted. It is not presented as a branded device treatment.
Explore treatment →Tired appearance, early laxity and loss of freshness
A facial massage and skincare led treatment intended to create a temporary feeling of firmness and a refreshed appearance, not structural lifting.
Explore treatment →General maintenance, congestion, dryness and dullness
A broad professional facial category using medical grade skincare products selected around the client’s current cosmetic concerns.
Explore treatment →Texture and tone concerns requiring a combined plan
A combined procedure considered only when Arneta judges that the additional intensity is justified and the skin is suitably prepared.
Explore treatment →Acne scarring, visible pores, texture and fine lines
A controlled procedure using sterile needles to encourage a wound healing response. Results develop gradually and vary between clients.
Explore treatment →A good treatment decision considers more than the concern written on a booking menu. Arneta reviews what the skin is doing now, what has been used recently, how much recovery is acceptable and whether a supportive facial or a more intensive procedure is proportionate.
Choose the issue that matters most now, such as congestion, dehydration, tone, texture or visible ageing.
Redness, stinging, dryness, active inflammation and recent reactions may change the plan or timing.
A facial may suit someone who wants little visible recovery. Needling or a peel may require more planning.
The next appointment is based on response rather than an automatic course or an assumed upgrade in intensity.
Medical Facials, Acne Regulator, Brightening, Hydra, Lifting and Customised Facial options generally focus on cleansing, hydration, massage, surface exfoliation and professional skincare selection.
DNA Repair Facial and Grand Retinoid Facial place greater emphasis on visible renewal and texture, while still remaining cosmetic facial treatments.
Chemical Peel, Microneedling and the combined Microneedling and Chemical Peel appointment require more detailed preparation, suitability screening and aftercare. Stronger is not automatically better, and combining procedures is never a default recommendation.

Arneta is a qualified facialist and skin specialist with more than six years of experience in skincare and two years working in a professional clinic.
She is a qualified Dental Nurse and VTCT Level 2 Beauty Therapist, with advanced training in skincare, facial massage, microneedling and chemical peels.
Her approach combines professional treatment with practical skincare advice, realistic expectations and an ongoing commitment to education.
It’s Me & You Clinic is doctor led. Arneta provides the treatments described on this page within her own training and qualifications, while the wider clinic culture places emphasis on consultation, informed consent, appropriate boundaries and responsible referral.
A cosmetic facial should not be used to diagnose or treat a medical skin condition. New or changing lesions, severe acne, infection, unexplained rashes, significant inflammation or symptoms outside Arneta’s scope may require assessment by a GP, pharmacist or dermatologist.
This distinction supports better decisions. It allows a suitable cosmetic concern to be treated professionally while recognising when a treatment should be postponed, modified or declined.

These answers provide general guidance. Personal suitability and the likely recovery can only be assessed after discussion of your skin, health, medicines and recent treatments.
A Customised Facial or consultation led Medical Facial can be a sensible starting point. Arneta can review your current routine, sensitivity, priorities and tolerance for visible recovery before recommending a treatment.
The Acne Regulator Facial is designed for suitable oily, congested and blemish prone skin. Active cystic, infected or painful acne may need medical assessment rather than a cosmetic facial.
A Brightening Facial, Hydra Facial Therapy, Grand Retinoid Facial or a suitable Chemical Peel may be discussed. The right choice depends on whether dullness is mainly linked to dehydration, surface build up, sensitivity or pigmentation.
Microneedling may be considered for selected scars and textural concerns once active inflammation is controlled. DNA Repair Facial and Chemical Peel options address the visible surface differently and may be more suitable for some clients.
A peel is a resurfacing procedure and may create more dryness, sensitivity or flaking than a supportive facial. Strength alone does not make a treatment better. Suitability and recovery matter.
A combined appointment is offered only when Arneta judges that the skin is suitable and the additional intensity is proportionate. Separate appointments or one procedure alone may be safer and more appropriate.
Some facials can leave the skin feeling refreshed immediately. Microneedling and resurfacing procedures develop over time and may look temporarily red or dry before improvement is assessed. Results vary.
There is no universal schedule. Frequency depends on the treatment, skin response, home routine, current medicines and whether the goal is occasional maintenance or a structured plan.
Suitability varies by treatment and products used. Tell the clinic before booking so that Arneta can assess what can be offered safely and what should be postponed.
Treatments are offered at It’s Me & You Clinic, Office 7 on the ground floor of Siddeley House, 50 Canbury Park Road, Kingston upon Thames KT2 6LX, with access from South West London and Surrey.
All treatments on this page are elective cosmetic services. They do not diagnose disease, replace individual medical advice or guarantee a result. Treatment may be postponed or declined where the skin is unsuitable, the concern requires medical assessment or the expected benefit does not justify the risk.
Book a consultation with Arneta in Kingston to discuss your priorities, current routine, sensitivity and the level of treatment that is genuinely proportionate.
