Heaven Facials

Our Heaven Facials use Deborah Mitchells award-winning organic skincare to rejuvenate skin. Treatments target wrinkles, blemishes, and eczema with natural ingredients like bee venom. Clients benefit from celebrity-endorsed formulas that promote radiant, youthful complexions.

Dermal Fillers

Advanced dermal fillers restore volume and smooth wrinkles using safe, FDA-approved products. Our therapists ensure natural results with precise application. Ideal for lips, cheeks, and fine lines, with aftercare to maximise longevity.

Hollywood Waxing

Painless Hollywood waxing removes hair thoroughly with Outback Organics wax, reducing regrowth irritation. Post-treatment products like Bush Balm soothe skin. Clients report exceptional, long-lasting smoothness and minimal discomfort.

Biosculpture Gel Nails

Biosculpture gel provides a 3+ week chip-resistant finish with 180+ colours. Vegan, cruelty-free formulas nourish natural nails. Includes bespoke treatments to encourage growth and maintain healthy nail beds.

Universal Contour Wrap

This detoxifying body wrap uses natural clay to firm skin and reduce inches. Clients typically lose 10-14 inches after one session. Aftercare includes hydration and avoiding toxins to sustain results for up to four days.
