Facial at home in JVC

Evenings and early mornings

Every day from 8am to 10pm. A late session can end as late as 1am. In JVC, weekday evenings after 7pm and weekend afternoons are the favourites, when the house is calmer and someone else can watch the children. You can book the same day with at least 4 hours of notice, when an aesthetician is free. Morning facials suit people who work from home.

Busy weeks in the circle

JVC days are full. Many residents commute out along the main roads, juggle children and pets, and spend weekends at community parks or the mall. A facial at home cuts out a trip that would otherwise eat into the evening, and there is no need to dress up for it.

For skin that spends the day in the car and the office, a cleanse or hydration usually feels right. If you are not sure which, compare the options in our guide to Hydra Glow vs Deep Cleansing. For a few minutes of quiet at the end, add the Red-light LED face mask add-on (AED 90) while the mask works. Short sessions are fine too: a 30-minute booking still gets your aesthetician's full attention.

Every facial is for one person, so even in a busy family home the hour stays focused on you. Tell your aesthetician how much time you have and they will keep to it.

Townhouses, villas and mid-rise apartments

Homes in JVC include apartments in mid-rise buildings, townhouses and villas, many with a small garden. All of them can host a facial. A little preparation helps:

Your aesthetician brings everything, from the treatment table to the towels, and packs it all away afterwards, so the room is back to normal within minutes. In a townhouse, an upstairs bedroom is often the quietest option. In an apartment, the living room usually works once the coffee table is moved aside.

• Pick a room with a door you can close, so pets and children stay outside for the hour.
• Clear about two by two metres of floor near a window or lamp.
• Move a coffee table or a chair aside if the floor feels tight.
• Keep the air conditioning comfortable rather than cold while you lie still.
• In an apartment building, let the desk know you are expecting a visitor if they ask for that.

Weekends, neighbours and trying something new

If you have never had a facial before, home is an easy place to start. You can ask questions, see every product before it goes on and stop at any point. A gentle hydrating facial is a good first choice; your aesthetician will explain each step as you go.

Weekend afternoons in JVC are a good moment to book a longer, more relaxing facial such as the Kobido Facial Massage. Neighbours in Al Barsha and JLT can book in their own areas: see facials in Al Barsha and facials in JLT. All prices are listed on our prices page.

If you are planning a facial for someone else, a gift card works for any massage or facial. Each facial is for one person, so friends or family at the same address simply make their own bookings. Ask for back-to-back start times in the notes if you would like them on the same afternoon.
