Star Treatment: Oooh, MAhhhDonna, Oxygen!

What’s the secret to Madonna’s ageless beauty? Well, a demanding tour schedule and on-call fitness and diet minions help. But the Material Girl also swears by daily oxygen facials, such as those available at Thibiant Beverly Hills European Skin Clinic (thibiantbeverlyhills.com) in Beverly Hills, California.

Thibiant offers two versions of Madge’s favorite facial, the OxyFusion Hydra Firm and the OxyFusion Luminous Glow (80 min./$200 each).

Rather than merely blowing oxygen onto the skin, these intense facials employ an O2 device made by Intraceuticals (intraceuticals.com). It uses hyperbaric oxygen technology to inject a custom blend of antiaging ingredients (such as peptides, botanicals, collagen, amino acids and vitamins) into the skin for optimum absorption.

It stimulates collagen and elastin production, regenerates new cells, and minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It also heals dry, damaged or sensitive skin, and boosts the benefits of laser and light therapy, skin peels and microdermabrasion.

The Protocol
1. A complete skin analysis is performed, followed by a gentle-but-thorough deep cleansing.

2. The appropriate exfoliation technique (scrub or enzyme peel) is administered to whisk away dead cells. Extractions are performed.

3. Using the Intraceuticals device, the esthetician administers a deep, penetrating facial massage using custom-blended ingredients.

4. If electing the HydraFirm Facial, clients receive a potent serum of hyaluronic acid, along with antioxidants such as green tea, and vitamins A, C, and E. Those opting for the Luminous Glow Facial receive a blend of botanical brighteners and super-concentrated vitamin C to balance uneven pigmentation and leave skin radiant.
