Tucked into Silverstream Village in Upper Hutt, Wellington, The Beauty Lounge is a locally owned salon built around the belief that skin should be nurtured, nourished and pampered. The team offers a blend of advanced skin technology and relaxing beauty therapy, from dermal needling and intuitive skin correction to appearance medicine.
Every skin journey at The Beauty Lounge can start with an Observ Analysis ($75, 30 minutes), an advanced diagnostic tool using high-tech imaging to assess fine lines, pores, pigmentation, hydration, sebaceous activity, and vascular issues like rosacea beneath the surface. Returning clients can book a seasonal Beauty Lounge Skin Check ($65, 20 minutes) to track progress and adjust their skincare — and the consultation fee is waived entirely if 3 or more skincare products are purchased on the day.
The salon's laser offering centres on two systems. Laser Genesis ($250, 30 minutes) is a gentle, non-ablative laser that stimulates collagen production to soften fine lines, minimise pores, reduce redness, and improve sun damage and scarring, with a Laser Genesis Glow upgrade ($300, 1 hour) adding an O Cosmedics enzyme cleanse, collagen sheet mask, and LED treatment. Clients who buy 4 sessions get a 5th free, and the treatment can be done monthly with no downtime.
The Cutera Laser Excel V+ targets vascular and pigmentation concerns using dual wavelengths, addressing redness, rosacea, facial veins, pigmentation, acne scarring and sun damage. Leg vein treatment starts at $325 (with a $300 repeat rate), spot treatments for facial redness or sun spots start from $200 for a credit-card sized area (up to $250 for larger areas), and a full-face Cool View Global treatment is $300 for an hour. Most clients need 2-4 sessions, though some require up to 6 depending on severity.
For fine hairs that traditional laser struggles with, The Beauty Lounge offers DMK's pain-free hair removal system, which gently dissolves hair and works to reduce regrowth. Pricing runs from $60 for a 15-minute lip treatment up to $155 for a 60-minute full face treatment, with sessions repeatable every 2-8 weeks. Clients must be on DMK's home prescriptives (including beta gel and EFAs) before starting this treatment.
Every facial begins with a detailed skin analysis so therapists can customise a blend of premium products to each client's needs. The Bespoke Facial ($169, 60 minutes) is one of the salon's signature offerings, alongside a broader facial, peel, and infusion menu.
Beyond its skin-focused treatments, The Beauty Lounge also offers massage, waxing, electrolysis, brows and lashes, spray tans, pedicures, and appearance medicine, rounding out a full beauty therapy offering alongside its more clinical skin treatments.
Clients regularly single out the salon's therapists by name, including Kirstie, Nicole, Abi, Chloe, and massage therapist Pond, describing a relaxing, professional environment with visible results. The salon also stocks premium skincare brands O-Cosmedics, Ultraceuticals, and Dermaviduals for at-home use.
The Beauty Lounge is open Monday to Sunday, located at Silverstream Village, 11/16 Whitemans Road, Silverstream, Upper Hutt 5019. Bookings can be made online, by phone on 04 528 7710, or by email at [email protected], and gift vouchers are available for purchase.
