Essential Facials

The starting point for getting to know your skin and building a regular routine. All essential facials can also be booked as a 4-session package.

Gentle cleansing during a Korean facial

Korean Facial

Deep cleansing and pore care

A Korean facial is built on cleansing and hydrating the skin in gentle layers, without stressing it. The session moves through gentle cleansing, exfoliation, pore extraction, and a serum and mask chosen for your skin type.

The goal is a cleaner, more balanced and radiant complexion while protecting the skin's natural barrier. In our Kadıköy salon, each Korean facial is adapted to what your skin needs that day.

Who it's for
  • Visible pores and blackheads
  • Dull, tired or dehydrated-looking skin
  • Anyone starting a regular skincare routine

Luminous Shine

Korean facial + lymphatic drainage

A radiance treatment that adds manual lymphatic drainage to every step of our Korean facial. Gentle drainage movements help reduce the look of puffiness, leaving the skin looking brighter and more awake.

Who it's for
  • Morning puffiness
  • Glow before a special occasion
  • Tired, dull-looking skin

Buccal Face Massage

Lifting effect, smoother lines, relaxed muscles

A manual technique that works the facial muscles from both outside and inside the mouth, focusing on more defined contours, released tension and a lifting effect.

Advanced Protocols

Protocols with professional products, each targeting a specific skin need. We choose the right one together during your consultation.

Snowcell®

Spot-reducing, intense hydration and glow

A brightening protocol that targets uneven tone and the appearance of dark spots. With intense hydration, it helps the skin look smoother, more even and luminous.

Who it's for
  • Post-sun or post-acne marks
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Skin that has lost its glow

Carboxy Therapy®

Acne and texture repair, pore tightening, lymphatic drainage

A needle-free protocol applied with a CO₂ gel mask. It aims to refine texture in acne-prone skin, make pores look tighter and support lymphatic drainage.

Who it's for
  • Acne-prone skin
  • Enlarged-looking pores
  • Puffy, tired-looking face

Pumpkin Peel®

Sebum balance, purifying and gentle renewal

A gentle enzyme peel with pumpkin enzymes that removes dead skin cells without abrasion. It helps balance sebum, purifies pores and leaves the skin looking fresh.

Who it's for
  • Oily and combination skin
  • Acne-prone skin
  • Rough texture

LHA LALA Peel®

The architect of the glass-skin protocol

Formulated with lipohydroxy acid (LHA), this protocol targets the popular Korean “glass skin” look. LHA is a gentle acid that renews the skin slowly and in a controlled way, for a smooth, glossy, glass-like finish.

Who it's for
  • Anyone wanting smooth, luminous skin
  • Sensitive skin that needs renewal

Bio-Meso™ PDRN®

Cellular renewal, elasticity and firmness

PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide) is one of the most talked-about ingredients in Korean skincare. The Bio-Meso™ PDRN® protocol aims to support the skin's renewal and improve the look of elasticity and firmness.

Who it's for
  • Loss of elasticity
  • Mature or tired-looking skin
  • Anyone seeking a renewing effect

Frequently asked questions

What is a Korean facial?
A Korean facial is a skincare approach built on cleansing, hydrating and protecting the skin in gentle layers. At Luminosa it includes cleansing, exfoliation, pore extraction, serum and mask steps, adapted to your skin type.
Which facial is right for me?
We decide together. In a short consultation before your session we talk about your skin and your goals, then recommend the facial or protocol that best fits your needs, whether that's dark spots, acne, pores, firmness or hydration.
How often should I get a facial?
A good rhythm is every 3–4 weeks, in line with the skin's renewal cycle. That's why our essential facials can be booked as a 4-session package.
Will my skin be red after a peel?
Depending on the protocol and your skin's sensitivity, mild redness may appear and usually fades quickly. Use sunscreen afterwards and avoid strong actives for a few days. We share personal aftercare tips at the end of each session.
How much does a facial cost?
