Body Treatments – Scrubs, Exfoliation & Full Body Spa
What It Is
Our body treatments focus on areas often neglected in regular skincare routines. The back facial is our most popular service, targeting back acne, congestion, and rough texture. We also offer full-body exfoliation and hydration treatments with a body scrub and massage spa option. Perfect for special occasions or regular maintenance.
Body Treatments at Glisten by Warda
Most people put a lot of thought into their facial skincare routine and very little into what's happening from the neck down. But your back, shoulders, and body carry the same skin — and the same pores, the same tendency toward congestion, the same buildup of dead skin cells. At Glisten by Warda, we offer a focused menu of body treatments that address exactly that.
Back Facial – The Most Popular Body Treatment
The back facial is our most-booked body treatment, and it's exactly what it sounds like: everything we do for your face, done on your back. It starts with a thorough cleanse to remove oil and buildup, then gentle steam to open pores, exfoliation, and careful extractions of blackheads and congested pores. We finish with a mask suited to your skin (purifying for oily/acne-prone skin, hydrating for dry skin) and a light moisturizer.
If you struggle with back acne ("bacne"), this treatment is one of the most effective ways to address it professionally. The combination of deep cleansing and extractions clears the pores that cause breakouts, and repeated sessions prevent new ones from forming. Many clients combine their back facial with a classic facial for a full head-to-body treatment day.
Body Scrub & Full Body Exfoliation
Our body scrub treatment (the Full Body Exfoliation) uses a combination of physical and chemical exfoliants to slough away the dead, dull outer layer of skin from head to toe. Think of it as microdermabrasion for your body — but gentler and more enveloping.
The treatment uses a sugar-based scrub that's gentler than salt but still highly effective, combined with mild AHAs that chemically dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells. After the scrub, a nourishing lotion is applied to seal in moisture. You leave with skin that feels genuinely smooth — not just "moisturized smooth," but actually smoother in texture.
The body scrub and massage spa combo is one of our most popular bookings: a full body exfoliation followed by a relaxation massage. Your skin absorbs massage oil much more effectively after exfoliation, and the combination leaves you feeling completely reset.
Body Wrap
Our body wrap uses a deeply nourishing mask applied to the full body, which is then wrapped in a thermal blanket for 20–30 minutes. This process opens pores, allows active ingredients to penetrate deeply, and leaves skin noticeably smoother and hydrated. We offer a hydrating wrap (great for dry skin and winter months) and a detox wrap. Both can be customized based on your skin's needs.
Privacy Is Not Optional for Body Treatments
A body scrub or full body exfoliation means undressing. That is why Glisten is a women only spa in Brampton — a closed private studio, one client at a time, with Warda as the only other person present.
Frequently Asked Questions
A body scrub is an exfoliation treatment that removes dead skin cells from the body's surface using a combination of physical (granular) and sometimes chemical exfoliants. It leaves skin softer, smoother, and better able to absorb moisturizer. At Glisten, we use a sugar-based scrub with mild AHAs for a gentle but thorough result.
They're often used interchangeably. A body scrub typically refers to a treatment using granular particles (sugar, salt) to physically buff the skin. Exfoliation is the broader process — it can be physical (scrub) or chemical (AHA/BHA). Our Full Body Exfoliation uses both for more comprehensive results.
Yes — and we recommend it. The body scrub and massage combo is one of our most popular bookings. Exfoliated skin absorbs massage oil far more effectively, making the massage feel noticeably more hydrating and relaxing.
For back acne management, every 4–6 weeks is ideal — this aligns with your skin's natural cell cycle and gives time for extractions to heal between sessions. For maintenance (not active breakouts), every 6–8 weeks is sufficient.
