From deep-cleansing facials to relaxing massages.
Grooming for the modern man has reached new heights with the Spa Awards 2023 winners, where excellence in men's facials and massages is celebrated. These treatments stand out for their profound benefits: enhancing skin health, reducing stress, and promoting overall well-being. Each facial rejuvenates and nourishes the skin, while the massages offer deep relaxation, easing muscle tension and enhancing mental clarity.
Best Hydrating Facial for Men
Winner: The Hydration Facial For Men, $230 for 60 minutes, Heavenly Spa by Westin
The Hydration Facial For Men at Heavenly Spa by Westin is meticulously crafted to meet the unique demands of men's skin. Recognising that men's skin is often thicker, oilier, and more prone to irritation due to regular shaving and outdoor exposure, this facial employs a targeted approach. Using a selection of award-winning cosmeceutical products, it deeply nourishes and protects the skin from environmental aggressors and excessive sun exposure. This facial not only revitalises the skin but also fortifies it against the daily challenges it faces, ensuring a healthier, more resilient complexion.

Best Brightening Facial for Men
Winner: Intense Glow, $380 for 120 Minutes, EstheClinic
The Intense Glow Programme at EstheClinic is a two-step process for significant skin brightening. Step one utilises MacPeel IPL technology to lighten dark spots and tighten pores, effectively reducing melanin overproduction in a pain-free manner. Step two employs LED light therapy, combining red and yellow light to stimulate skin repair and collagen production. This step not only aids in healing but also provides an anti-ageing effect, firming up the skin. The result is a visibly brighter, smoother, and rejuvenated complexion after just one session.

Winner: The Gentlemen's Restorative Facial, $297 for 60 minutes, Raffles Spa
At Raffles Spa, the Gentlemen's Restorative Facial is a refined retreat for the modern man.
