Looking for a natural solution to dullness, breakouts, pigmentation, or early signs of aging? The Green Peel® Herbal Renewal Treatment is a globally renowned, plant-based facial that stimulates your skin from within, without synthetic acids or harsh chemicals. Made from a blend of herbs, minerals, and enzymes, this peel activates circulation and encourages skin regeneration, revealing a smoother, brighter, more balanced complexion. Best of all, the process includes a follow-up facial five days later to complete your skin’s transformation.

Whether you’re dealing with large pores, active acne and scars, or uneven tone, the Green Peel® supports deep renewal while respecting your skin’s integrity. It’s a reset button for your complexion powered entirely by nature.

What to Expect from the Process

After a thorough skin consultation, your aesthetician massages the herbal blend into the skin using precise, invigorating motions. You may feel a prickly or tingling sensation as the natural micro-particles stimulate circulation and cellular activity. The session takes place in one of our private treatment rooms and concludes with personalized aftercare guidance and take-home products. Over the next five days, visible peeling and renewal take place, culminating in your Beauty Finish facial, a calming, hydrating session that reveals your skin’s fresh new glow.


Who This Treatment Is For

  • Clients seeking a natural yet intensive treatment

  • Suitable for most skin types with concerns such as aging, dullness, breakouts, or pigmentation

  • Must not have highly sensitive, thin, or rosacea-prone skin

  • Best for individuals committed to following the post-care protocol

Real Results, Not Just Surface Glow

Unlike chemical peels, the Green Peel® works by activating your skin’s natural renewal process using potent herbs like horsetail, aloe vera, and chamomile. As circulation increases, so does oxygen and nutrient delivery, resulting in brighter tone, refined texture, and improved elasticity. This treatment helps fade hyperpigmentation, minimize scarring, and smooth out lines, all while detoxifying and purifying the skin. The included follow-up facial ensures a gentle finish to the peeling process and supports lasting results.


When and How Often?

Green Peel® is best performed in fall and winter when sun exposure is reduced. You’ll see results after just one treatment, but for best outcomes, we recommend a series of 4 treatments spaced 8 weeks apart. Each session builds upon the last to support long-term clarity, firmness, and radiance.


Important Aftercare Reminders

  • Avoid water contact on the treated area for 5 days

  • Do not exercise, sweat excessively, or use steam rooms/saunas

  • Avoid picking at peeling skin

  • Use only the recommended post-care products

  • Avoid sunlight for 6–8 weeks and apply SPF daily after Day 5

  • Return for your Beauty Finish facial on Day 5 to complete the process

Want to Elevate the Results?

Add-ons like Lymphatic Drainage or a Neck & Chest treatment can help amplify detoxification and extend the benefits of the Green Peel® to additional areas. Ask your aesthetician about customizing your treatment for maximum rejuvenation.

A Final Word

The Green Peel® is more than just a facial, it’s a complete skin renewal experience rooted in nature. With visible improvements in just one session and continued benefits over time, it’s a smart choice for clients seeking effective, plant-powered results. If you’re ready to reset your skin naturally and glow from the inside out, this treatment is for you.

Stubborn dark spots? Uneven tone? The Mela-Bright Peel Series is a professional brightening system from Spain designed specifically to correct pigmentation issues like sun damage, melasma, freckles, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. What makes it different? It’s formulated to treat both fair and deep skin tones (Fitzpatrick I–VI) without triggering rebound pigmentation making it one of the safest pigment-correcting options available for ethnic skin. The advanced blend of ingredients in Mela-Bright works at multiple levels to regulate melanin production, gently resurface the skin, and reveal a brighter, more even complexion. Unlike generic peels, this treatment series combines targeted in-clinic applications with customized homecare for long-term pigment correction, not just a temporary glow.


What to Expect from the Process Your treatment begins in our express facial area. After your skin is cleansed and prepped, your aesthetician will apply the Mela-Bright peel in a single, even layer. You’ll likely feel a light tingling or mild warmth as the actives begin working. There is no massage or mask as this is a focused, corrective treatment. You’ll be given clear instructions on when to remove the peel at home and how to begin your prescribed post-care regimen. Peeling typically begins around day 2 or 3 and can last until day 5. During this time, you may experience some dryness, flaking, and redness, but most clients are fully healed by day 7 and begin noticing visible improvements in tone and clarity within 28 days.


Who This Treatment Is For The Mela-Bright Peel is ideal for clients who are concerned about:

  • Melasma

  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation

  • Freckles or uneven skin tone

  • Sun damage

It’s suitable for all skin types and tones, including darker complexions that are often more reactive to traditional peels. Most clients are in their late 20s or beyond and are looking for long-term clarity, not just surface-level glow.

Real Correction, Not Just Brightening What sets Mela-Bright apart is its ability to treat pigment without overstimulating the skin. It doesn’t just fade existing spots, it inhibits melanin production at the source by targeting the tyrosinase enzyme and promoting healthy cell turnover. And because it’s formulated to avoid rebound pigmentation, it’s especially safe for clients with darker skin tones who often can’t tolerate other chemical peels. With each session, pigmentation fades and skin becomes clearer, more even-toned, and visibly brighter. Clients often notice smoother texture, a reduction in dark patches, and a natural glow that builds with each treatment in the series.

When and How Often? While Mela-Bright can be done year-round with proper sun protection, fall and winter are ideal due to reduced UV exposure. The full protocol includes three treatments:

  1. Initial in-clinic peel with customized homecare

  2. Second in-clinic peel 30 days later

  3. Third treatment 4–8 months after the second, based on your progress

After completing the series, your aesthetician will assess whether maintenance peels or complementary services are needed.

Important Aftercare Reminders Aftercare is critical for safe healing and optimal results. For the first few days post-treatment:

  • Avoid exercise, heat, and direct sun exposure

  • Use only the post-care products provided

  • Don’t pick or manually peel flaking skin

  • Skip exfoliants, retinols, and acids for at least 7–10 days

  • Wear SPF 30+ daily and reapply often

Your skin may feel dry, sensitive, or tight, but this is temporary and part of the process.

Want to Elevate the Results? To enhance your skin clarity and overall tone, your aesthetician may recommend combining your Mela-Bright series with treatments like Lymphatic Drainage, Microcurrent, or Nano Infusion. These add-ons help support circulation, collagen production, and hydration, accelerating the pigment-correcting benefits.


A Final Word The Mela-Bright Peel Series is more than just a chemical peel, it’s a strategic, layered approach to correcting pigmentation at the source. If you’ve tried brightening serums or exfoliating facials with minimal change, this may be the corrective plan your skin has been waiting for. With a commitment to the series and post-care, most clients see significant improvement in skin tone, texture, and radiance without compromising skin safety.

If your skin feels tired, puffy, or simply flat-out blah, we have just the facial to bring it back to life! The Stimu Facial is one of our most invigorating treatments, a spicy-cool experience that gets your blood flowing, tightens your complexion, and leaves you with an instant, radiant glow. Think of it as your go-to pre-event pick-me-up, post-winter wake-up, or anytime your skin needs a circulation boost.

Safe for pregnancy and suitable for all skin types, it’s the ideal introduction to facials or a quick refresh for even the most seasoned GLOW guest.

What Is The Stimu Facial?

The Stimu Facial is a circulation-enhancing, skin-brightening experience that combines thermal stimulation and cooling techniques to wake up your complexion in the most luxurious way. The treatment begins with a warming spicy pepper solution - don’t worry, it’s gentle and controlled, designed to increase microcirculation, detoxify, and oxygenate the skin. Once that fiery flush has done its job, we bring on the chill.

A cold towel, ice globes, and a cooling mask help bring inflammation down and restore balance, creating the signature fire-and-ice contrast that gives this treatment its cult following.


What It Feels Like

Clients describe the sensation as invigorating, tingly, and soothing all at once. The initial warm “peppery” phase is mild and lasts just long enough to do its job, stimulating blood flow and clearing out stagnation. Then comes the cool-down: an icy refresh using tools and products specifically chosen to calm and restore the skin. You’ll leave feeling awakened, lifted, and totally revived.


Who It's For

The beauty of the Stimu Facial lies in its versatility. It’s suitable for all skin types, ages, and concerns but it truly shines on:

  • Dull, lackluster skin

  • Congested or acne-prone skin

  • Tired complexions needing a glow-up

  • Pregnant clients seeking a safe but effective facial

  • First-timers wanting something impactful but not overwhelming

Whether you’re heading to an event, recovering from a long travel week, or just want your skin to look and feel alive again, this facial is designed for you.


The Experience, Step by Step

Your session begins in one of our peaceful, private treatment rooms. After a gentle cleanse and skin prep, your esthetician will apply the warming pepper solution, carefully monitoring your skin’s response. As the heat stimulates circulation and brings a healthy flush to the surface, we follow with a wave of cooling therapies: ice globes, cold towels, and a hydrating mask that leaves skin calm, plump, and visibly renewed.

No needles, no harsh exfoliants, no downtime, just results.


Post-Treatment Expectations

You’ll leave with a dewy, refreshed glow and tighter-looking pores. Some clients may experience mild redness, which typically fades within a few hours. Most clients love how their skin feels instantly more lifted, alive, and clear.

For best results, we recommend booking the Stimu Facial every 4 weeks or as a glow-up treatment before major events. It’s also a fabulous seasonal reset, especially after long winters or dry months. What our clients say about this treatment: " I booked my first facial ever here, and had the amazing Daria treat me! And I'm so happy I chose Glow Beauty Bar for my first facial experience! Since it was my first facial, I decided to book the "Consultation and Treatment Facial", where Daria preformed skin imaging to view any underlying skin conditions. We discussed my current skincare, and she then educated me on what I should be incorporating into my skincare for my skin type, especially because I also suffer from rosacea. Once we completed the consultation, she then recommended the Stimu facial, which left my skin feeling so amazing and glowy after we were done! Ended up purchasing their Glowtox Cleansing Oil too when I came in for my second facial (Calm - Express Facial) right before my wedding, and by far it's one of the best facial oils you can get your hands on! Highly recommend Glow Beauty Bar, and hope to be back soon in the near future!"
