SKR Beauty introduces the first Korean Glass Skin Facial in the North East
- Advertisement Feature
Korean beauty isn’t just having a moment – it’s transforming our skincare. And now, one of its best-kept secrets, the Korean Glass Skin Facial, has arrived in Newcastle thanks to SKR Beauty.
Meet Sim Cho, private facialist and founder of SKR Beauty, and the first to bring this advanced, authentic treatment to the North East – in fact, the first studio outside London to offer it in its true, clinical form.
As soon as you step into her tranquil Quayside studio, you feel like a weight has been lifted. It’s a space to relax, breathe deeper and your skin is treated with the same calm precision she’s become known for.
Sim’s approach is both thoughtful and transformative, blending science, intuition and a holistic touch to create results that genuinely change the way your skin behaves.
If your skin has been asking for something more — more hydration, more clarity and more calm — this might be your sign.
Here’s everything you need to know…
MEET SIM KAUR: THE FACIALIST BEHIND THE NORTH EAST’S MOST SOUGHT-AFTER GLOW
Spend five minutes with Sim and you’ll understand why her clients travel from across the UK — including professionals, performers and footballers — for her one-to-one expertise.
She blends the clinical precision of Korean dermatology with the intuitive, restorative touch rooted in her Indian heritage. The result is a treatment that doesn’t just make your skin look incredible; it makes it function better on every level, from barrier to molecular.
Her philosophy is beautifully simple: true skin health starts with understanding, not intensity. She takes time with every client, creating a facial that feels both deeply personal and quietly powerful.
“Skin isn’t something to fix — it’s something to understand. When you work with it instead of against it, that’s when you see real transformation,”
- Sim says..
WHAT IS THE KOREAN GLASS SKIN FACIAL?
Think of it as a complete skin renewal system — not just a glow-boosting moment. Sim layers advanced Korean modalities including hydrodermabrasion, oxygen therapy, LED therapy and CO₂ treatment to refine, brighten and rebuild the skin from within. But the real magic? Her ultrasound infusion of ceramides.
These ceramides are delivered so deeply into the skin that moisture levels stay elevated for up to three weeks. The result is that signature glass-skin finish: bouncy, hydrated, smooth, and somehow both firmer and softer at the same time.
THE SPECIAL INGREDIENTS THAT DELIVER THAT K-BEAUTY GLOW
If you’re a skincare lover, get ready — this facial is a dream. Sim incorporates peptides, niacinamide, polyglutamic acid, Korean exosomes, centella, ginseng and c-PDRN, all infused using ultrasound technology for maximum absorption and long-lasting results.
She also offers Rejuran — Korea’s leading polynucleotide skin booster — and SKR Beauty is the only clinic outside London to do so.
Every step is layered the Korean way: thoughtfully, precisely, and always with the skin’s long-term health in mind.
HOW LONG DO RESULTS LAST?
You’ll see and feel the difference immediately — brighter tone, silkier texture, and that almost weightless elasticity that makes your skin feel younger than it looked that morning. Thanks to the ceramide infusion, hydration continues to build days after the treatment and lasts for around three weeks.
For the best long-term results, clients usually return every four to six weeks, allowing the skin to stay balanced, hydrated and consistently radiant.
SUITABLE FOR EVERY SKIN TYPE
Because the treatment is deeply restorative and barrier-focused, it’s suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, acne-prone, and even pregnancy skin. Sim tailors every single step — the actives, the pressure, the pace — to exactly what your skin needs that day.
WHY SIM BROUGHT THIS TREATMENT TO THE NORTH EAST
The story behind the facial is as beautiful as the results. After graduating top of her class and winning Student of the Year, Sim immersed herself in the science of facials — particularly the Korean philosophy of layering and barrier respect.
Her passion deepened after marrying her Korean husband, whose heritage influenced her development of a treatment that blends two cultures: the wisdom of Indian therapeutic massage and the innovation of Korean skincare science.
Today, SKR Beauty holds more than 860 five-star reviews, a loyal client base and a reputation for calm, intelligent, deeply effective skincare.
