Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur Is Now Home to 111SKIN’s Most Powerful Facials
If you’ve ever scrolled through celebrity skincare routines and spotted 111SKIN, you’ll know this isn’t just another luxury beauty brand. It’s the kind of name whispered backstage at fashion week and name-checked by A-listers before red carpet events. And now, for the first time in Kuala Lumpur, you can experience it exclusively at The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Kuala Lumpur.Yes, this is major.
The hotel has officially launched two of 111SKIN’s most sought-after treatments — The Reparative Facial and the Black Diamond Non-Surgical Facial Lift — making it the only spa in the city to offer these globally acclaimed, results-driven facials.
The Science That Makes Skin Obsessed
Let’s talk about why beauty insiders swear by 111SKIN.
The brand was founded by world-renowned plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Yannis Alexandrides, alongside co-founder Eva Alexandridis. It began in a clinical setting, developed to help post-surgical patients heal faster and better. What started as a medical innovation quickly became a cult skincare line.
At the core of both facials is NAC Y2™, 111SKIN’s proprietary complex. The hero ingredient? N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is an amino acid derivative that helps the skin produce glutathione, one of the body’s most powerful antioxidants.In real terms, that means:
- Protection from environmental damage
- Strengthened skin barrier
- Improved repair and resilience
- Brighter, more even complexion
It also stimulates natural Vitamin C and Vitamin E production, meaning your skin doesn’t just look radiant — it becomes stronger over time.
This isn’t surface-level glow. It’s deep, structural skincare.
The Reparative Facial vs. The Black Diamond Lift
So which one do you book?
The Reparative Facial focuses on restoration. Think barrier repair, anti-inflammatory support, and that healthy-from-within glow. It’s ideal for stressed, sensitised, travel-weary or city-exposed skin.

Then there’s the Black Diamond Non-Surgical Facial Lift — the treatment that beauty editors love to call “the red-carpet facial.” Using black diamond particles to enhance product absorption, this facial delivers visible lift, sculpting and luminosity without injectables. Skin looks smoother, firmer and noticeably more defined.
Both treatments are performed by therapists who have undergone hands-on training with the 111SKIN clinic team in London. Translation: technique matters here. Precision matters. Results matter.
Where Science Meets Luxury
Of course, this is Mandarin Oriental, Kuala Lumpur. So the setting is considered as the science.
Located on Level 3, The Spa & Wellness floor is a sanctuary designed to reset more than just your skin. Infrared saunas. Lemongrass-scented steam rooms. A skyline-facing infinity pool. A yoga and sound healing studio. Even pickleball courts, if you’re feeling active before your facial.
There’s also AQUA Restaurant, serving health-forward cuisine that aligns beautifully with the whole “glow from within” philosophy.
Why This Matters Now
There’s a noticeable shift happening in beauty. Guests are no longer booking facials purely for relaxation. They want visible change. They want science. They want treatments that respect both time and skin biology.
As Che Wan Abdul Aziz, Director of Spa & Wellness, puts it: today’s guests are increasingly seeking results-driven wellness solutions. And honestly? That tracks. Between city pollution, travel fatigue and screen-time stress, our skin needs more than a basic cleanse-and-mask moment.
These facials are about confidence. About investing in long-term skin health. About choosing non-invasive innovation over quick fixes.
Time to Pay Attention to Your Skin
With the arrival of 111SKIN at Mandarin Oriental, Kuala Lumpur officially enters the global conversation on high-performance, medical-grade facials. No flights to London required. So if your skin has been looking tired, textured, or just not quite itself — this might be your sign. Because sometimes the most powerful beauty decision you can make isn’t another serum. It’s booking the right facial.
