A boutique skin clinic on Robinson Road in Coatesville, run by a mother and daughter, Julia and Phoebe Armitage, with a registered nurse and beauty therapist on the team. The clinic says it is one of only four places in New Zealand with a Vivace machine, which combines microneedling with radiofrequency to boost collagen and tighten the skin. It also offers Sunekos injectable treatment, the iS Clinical Active Peel System and the Fire and Ice facial.
The clinic does skincare, laser hair removal, cosmetic injectables, the O-Shot, eyebrow shaping and tinting, lash lifts and spray tans. Laser hair removal is offered as a summer trio of six sessions each for underarms, bikini line and half legs. Clients can pay for treatments with AfterPay.
Clients say the treatments left their skin looking refreshed, and that the facials were relaxing and the rooms warm and well fitted out. One client says her friends have commented on the results after three Vivace treatments. Another praises the spray tan for its even colour.
The clinic is at 92 Robinson Road in Coatesville. Our pick in Coatesville for a client who wants a Vivace treatment or a relaxing facial in a small clinic.
