How Does The Fire & Ice Facial Work?
This intensive treatment uses two distinct masques to target your skin on multiple levels:
- The “Fire” phase uses active ingredients like glycolic acid and retinol to exfoliate and renew the skin.
- The “Ice” phase cools, calms, and deeply hydrates using hyaluronic acid and soothing botanicals.
Unlike harsher treatments that require peeling or extended downtime, the Fire and Ice facial works quickly and gently, leaving your skin glowing and not irritated.
Key Ingredients
- Glycolic Acid for gentle exfoliation
- Retinol (Vitamin A) to support cell turnover
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) to even tone and calms redness
- Hyaluronic Acid for deep hydration
- Licorice Root & Green Tea Extracts for antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents
- Aloe Vera to soothe and heal
Is this Treatment Right for Me?
Who this treatment may be appropriate for:
People of all skin types and ages
Patients interested in supporting or maintaining skin health
People with mild to moderate age-related changes or concerns such as dryness or reduced elasticity
Suitability varies between individuals, and a consultation is required to determine whether this treatment is appropriate for you. Outcomes and experiences may differ, and all treatments carry potential risks and side effects.

Fire and Ice Facial: Step-by-Step Process
Here’s what to expect during your facial:
Treatment Time: 30–45 minutes
Comfort Level: Mild tingling or warmth during the resurfacing step, often described as invigorating
Immediate and Long-Term Results
After just one fire and ice facial, many clients notice:
- Brighter, more radiant skin
- Smoother texture
- Reduced redness and inflammation
- Smaller-looking pores
- A healthy, dewy glow
While a single treatment is perfect before an event, regular sessions can support long-term skin renewal. For best results, we recommend 3-6 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart.
A full skin assessment by a qualified therapist is required to determine your suitability and discuss potential side effects. Individual responses and downtime vary. Please discuss all risks at your consultation.
No Fire and Ice Facial Downtime, Just Great Skin
The iS Clinical Fire and Ice facial is designed with your schedule in mind. Most clients experience only slight redness that fades within hours. There’s no peeling or irritation, just refreshed skin you can show off immediately.
You can even wear makeup later the same day or the following morning.
