Medik8 Skincare

Medik8 facial treatments have been carefully curated to rejuvenate the skin while providing you with a supremely relaxing experience. But what sets our treatments apart is the visible results you and your friends will notice and rave about. Using super-strength professional-grade products that are unavailable in our at-home range, you can be sure that no matter which treatment you choose, you will love what you see. Your face tends to be given all the focus when it comes to skincare. Yet the skin on our bodies can often be just as in need of a little TLC. Whether that’s in the form of treatments for back acne, a sun damaged décolletage or age-spotted hands. At Vanilla Pod Beauty, we offer a variety of indulgent in-clinic body treatments to relax and indulge the senses while delivering visible results.
