I have been having Caci treatments for nearly a year now at Tao. The girls are lovely which makes the experience even better. I’ve had Cacis before but really notice a difference since going to Tao. I’m
hoping that I’ll still be going when I’m old and grey (however I won’t look old!!), Thanks girls x

I’ve had a few microdermabrasion facials done by Katie at Tao now and my skin has never looked so good. I’m early 30s and have had acne for the majority of my adulthood. The microdermabrasion is really helping to control the breakouts and has reduced the scarring on my cheeks significantly.
Katie is also so lovely and always makes me feel at ease.
