The Dr Vanita Rattan Glow Facial is a results-driven professional treatment specifically developed for skin of colour and melanin-rich skin. Using evidence-based formulations and a carefully structured protocol, this advanced facial targets pigmentation, dullness, uneven tone, sensitivity and early signs of ageing — safely and effectively.
Every step has been designed to respect the unique biology of skin of colour, minimising the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation while restoring glow, hydration and skin barrier strength.
Why the Dr V Glow Facial is different
Skin of colour has larger, more reactive melanocytes, meaning it responds differently to professional treatments. Many traditional facials and peels can trigger irritation and pigmentation.
The Glow Facial was created to change that.
What sets it apart:
-
Formulated specifically for skin of colour
-
Uses gentle, controlled resurfacing — not aggressive exfoliation
-
Targets pigmentation at the source with tyrosinase inhibitors
-
Strengthens the skin barrier while brightening
-
Zero downtime, no peeling, no visible irritation
This is glow without compromise.
What the treatment includes
Double Cleanse: Purify without stripping
The treatment begins with a two-step cleanse to dissolve makeup, SPF and impurities while protecting the skin barrier. Antioxidants, soothing oils and hydrating humectants leave skin calm, clean and perfectly prepped — never tight or dry.
Hydration & Barrier Prep
A super-hydrating toner mist delivers glycerin, urea and niacinamide to calm inflammation, reduce redness and create the ideal base for active ingredients. This step is key for maintaining skin comfort throughout the treatment.
Glow Peel (Professional use only)
At the heart of the facial is the Glow Peel, a professional-grade resurfacing peel formulated exclusively for skin of colour.
Using a blend of gentle acids and brightening actives, it:
-
Lifts away dead skin cells
-
Improves texture and radiance
-
Helps regulate melanin production
-
Minimises the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
Unlike traditional peels, this formulation prioritises skin safety while delivering visible results — with no aggressive shedding or downtime.
Glow Serum: Brighten, strengthen, smooth
Next, a weightless Vitamin C serum formulated at optimal percentages for skin of colour is applied. This advanced serum helps to:
-
Brighten and even skin tone
-
Support collagen and elasticity
-
Hydrate and strengthen the skin barrier
-
Smooth fine lines and texture
It also contains soothing and reparative ingredients to support skin recovery post-peel.
Glow Sheet Mask: Calm and restore
A cooling, hydrating sheet mask is applied immediately after the peel to lock in moisture, calm inflammation and reinforce the skin barrier. This step delivers instant comfort and glow while supporting long-term skin health.
Barrier Repair & Protection
The treatment finishes with a ceramide- and peptide-rich moisturiser to deeply hydrate and restore the skin barrier, followed by a broad-spectrum mineral SPF formulated specifically for melanin-rich skin — with zero white cast.

For longer-lasting improvements in pigmentation and overall skin quality, a course of treatments combined with appropriate aftercare and daily SPF is recommended.
Testimonials
What our patients really think...
I have sent everyone I know to see Sanjay as he always does such an amazing job. Super happy with results. It is always so natural looking and he always gives full disclosure on what to expect. Very professional, very calming and amazing work! I have had tear trough filler, lip filler and masseter botox with Sanjay and all have been an amazing experience. Sanjay is really a magician at what he does.
I’ve had such a great experience at Trikwan aesthetics. Dr zoya is absolutely amazing at what she does and I couldn’t be happier with the results. All the staff, including the reception, are super friendly and helpful, making the whole experience really special. Would highly recommend.
