All of our facial treatments are suitable for pregnancy and breastfeeding, and we are able to accommodate adjustments for the treatment bed set-up to help make your experience even more comfortable. During this life stage, however, we do always recommend that you speak with your medical practitioner, should you have any questions or concerns.
All of our facial treatments are suitable for this life stage (including peri- and post-menopause); however, we find that clients experiencing hormonal skin changes often benefit most from The EpiNova Facial, as each step can be customised to suit your unique skin needs. Alternatively, our Signature Consultation is a wonderful way to better understand your skin’s evolving needs and explore the products best suited to you. This includes a 30-minute introductory treatment. During this life stage, we always recommend consulting your medical practitioner if you have any questions or concerns.

We advise arriving 5-10mins before your appointment in order to meet with your therapist and complete your consent form ahead of your scheduled start time.
For any procedures involving wrinkle-relaxing injections or dermal fillers, we are unable to perform facial treatments within two weeks following your appointment. This is to ensure your results are not compromised. Please keep this in mind when booking to avoid disappointment.
Depending on the type of laser used, we may be unable to perform any facial treatments within three months of your procedure. For non-fractional ablative CO₂ or Er:YAG lasers, we require clearance with written consent from your medical practitioner to ensure your results are not compromised. Please keep this in mind when booking to avoid disappointment. The Express Light Therapy Facial is a 45-minute treatment that utilises Healite II to promote cellular recovery and reduce inflammation. Depending on your skin journey, this facial can be a great option to support the skin and bridge the gap between treatments.
We do require 24 hours’ notice for cancellation of your appointment. Please advise the Flagship by phone or email within this timeframe as a courtesy. This is to help support our teams – and allow any waitlisted clients to utilise a last-minute availability
There are days when the most considered thing a treatment can do is less, not more. When skin is reactive, redness lingers longer than it should, and the barrier feels strained, the priority is not the introduction of more actives, but the careful restoration of calm. The treatments within this collection have been developed with that intention: to gently re-establish the conditions under which skin can
recover, while still delivering the visible result that defines a RATIONALE Flagship experience.
Sensitised skin is rarely a permanent state. It typically emerges when the Stratum Corneum has been compromised – through over-exfoliation, environmental stress, hormonal shifts, or the over-introduction of actives – and presents as persistent redness, tightness and heightened reactivity. Restoring this skin requires
barrier-supportive lipids, calming actives and considered, non-aggressive techniques.
The Restorative Calming Facial is the most powerful offering in this collection: a 60-minute, exclusively hands-on, modality-free treatment delivered in complete darkness, drawing on gentle resurfacing and a lipid-rich multi-Vitamin Complex to visibly settle reactive skin. The CryoGenic Cooling Facial pairs Cryogenic Skin Cooling with LED Light Therapy and an Antioxidant Infusion, calming the appearance of redness while delivering immediate hydration. For clients short on time, The Express PhotoGenic Facial offers a streamlined 45-minute experience well-suited to those newer to active treatments, while The Express Light Therapy Facial is a focused 30-minute Healite LED II session, ideal for supporting recovery between facials.
