Carboxytherapy facial
Carboxytherapy is a non-invasive facial that delivers a controlled dose of carbon dioxide to the skin to boost circulation and oxygen flow. The body responds by sending oxygen-rich blood to the area, which stimulates collagen, brightens tone, and helps soften fine lines, acne scarring and dark under-eye circles.
A carboxytherapy facial works on a simple principle: when skin meets a measured dose of CO₂, the body reacts by rushing oxygenated blood to the surface — the Bohr effect. That surge improves microcirculation, encourages fresh collagen and elastin, and helps disperse the puffiness and dark tones that build up around the eyes. It is gentle, needle-free and suits most skin types, with little to no downtime, which makes it a popular choice before an event or as a short course for longer-term radiance. Treatments feel relaxing rather than uncomfortable, and the results build naturally over several sessions. At Nu Beauty in Haverhill, Suffolk, a carboxytherapy facial is £70 — one of very few salons offering it in west Suffolk, where most clients would otherwise travel to Cambridge or London to find it.

Chemical peel
A chemical peel is a professional skin-resurfacing treatment that applies a tailored acid solution to exfoliate the outer layers of skin. As those tired cells lift away, fresher skin is revealed underneath, improving texture, tone, pigmentation and the look of fine lines and breakouts.
Chemical peels use carefully-chosen acids — such as glycolic, lactic or salicylic — at a strength matched to your skin and your goal. By loosening the bonds between dull surface cells, a peel accelerates the skin’s natural renewal, so over the following days the complexion looks smoother, clearer and more even. Lighter peels give a fresh glow with little or no visible peeling; stronger courses target stubborn pigmentation, congestion and early signs of ageing. Your therapist assesses your skin first and may recommend a patch test or a pre-care routine to get the best and safest result. A peel also pairs well with dermaplaning or microneedling as part of a longer plan. At Nu Beauty in Haverhill, Suffolk, a chemical peel is £78 — advanced skin resurfacing that is rare to find locally across west Suffolk.
| Price | £78 |
| Targets | Pigmentation, texture, breakouts, fine lines |
| Downtime | Minimal to moderate |
| Patch test | May be required |
Dermaplaning facial
Dermaplaning is a precise exfoliating facial that uses a sterile surgical blade to gently remove dead skin cells and fine “peach fuzz” vellus hair. The result is instantly smoother, brighter skin, a flawless base for make-up, and better absorption of your skincare.
Despite the blade, dermaplaning is painless and relaxing — the therapist holds the skin taut and sweeps the sterile edge across the surface at an angle, shaving away built-up dead cells and the soft fuzz that traps oil and dulls the complexion. Removing that layer reveals the fresh skin beneath, softens the look of fine lines, and lets serums and moisturisers absorb far more effectively. It is a favourite before a wedding, shoot or special event because the glow is immediate and make-up sits beautifully afterwards. There is no downtime, and contrary to the common myth, the fine hair grows back exactly as it was. It can also be combined with a peel or enzyme treatment for an even deeper result. At Nu Beauty in Haverhill, Suffolk, a dermaplaning facial is £55 — a treatment still uncommon across west Suffolk salons.
| Price | £55 |
| Best for | Smoothness, glow, make-up prep |
| Downtime | None |

Cinderella facial
The Cinderella facial is an instant-glow treatment designed to hydrate, smooth and revive tired skin before a special occasion. Using advanced Cliniccare formulations rich in peptides, hyaluronic acid and antioxidants, it leaves the complexion plump, radiant and camera-ready — hence the name.
The Cinderella facial is all about fast, visible radiance. It layers deeply-hydrating actives — hyaluronic acid to plump, peptides to firm, and antioxidants to protect and brighten — into a relaxing protocol that wakes up dull, dehydrated skin in a single session. There is no needling and no downtime, so it is the go-to treatment in the days before a wedding, party or photoshoot when you want skin to look its absolute best. Many clients book it as a one-off glow before an event, while others fold it into a regular routine for ongoing luminosity. Because it is gentle, it suits most skin types and pairs neatly with dermaplaning for an even smoother finish. At Nu Beauty in Haverhill, Suffolk, the Cinderella facial is £45 — an event-ready glow facial that is hard to find elsewhere across west Suffolk.
| Price | £45 |
| Best for | Events, hydration, instant glow |
| Downtime | None |
| Available at | Haverhill |
Microneedling facial
Microneedling is a collagen-induction facial that uses fine needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. This prompts the skin’s natural repair response, building fresh collagen and elastin to firm the skin and soften scarring, pores and fine lines over a course of treatments.
Microneedling works with your skin’s own healing process. The device’s ultra-fine needles create tiny, controlled punctures that the body immediately sets about repairing — flooding the area with growth factors and laying down new collagen and elastin. Over a course, that rebuilt support structure visibly firms the skin and improves the look of acne scarring, enlarged pores, texture and fine lines. The micro-channels also let targeted serums absorb far more deeply than they could on intact skin. A numbing layer keeps the treatment comfortable; afterwards skin may look flushed for a day or two, like mild sunburn, before the glow comes through. It is one of the most evidence-backed skin treatments available. At Nu Beauty in Haverhill, Suffolk, a microneedling facial is £104.50 — clinical-grade skin renewal that very few west Suffolk salons offer.
| Price | £104.50 |
| Targets | Scarring, pores, firmness, texture |
| Downtime | 1–2 days flushing |
| Course | Recommended |
