Only Healthy Vibes and Scenic Views at Sals Bistro – A Review

Gen Z leads the skincare shift with subtle, science-backed solutions. As summer nears and temperatures rise, Gen Z and skincare have become an unstoppable pairing shaping the future of beauty and wellness. Clinics across the UAE are witnessing a sharp increase in demand for non-invasive, no-downtime treatments, particularly from the under-30 crowd who prefer prevention over correction. This generation is not waiting for signs of ageing or damage to appear—they’re taking action now, using science-led, holistic skincare solutions. According to Dr Zubda Nasir, GP Aesthetics Doctor at Salus Clinic, this surge isn’t fuelled by vanity but by a deep understanding of skin health and proactive self-care. “Gen Z are highly educated when it comes to skincare and are adopting a proactive approach,” explains Dr Nasir. “They’re investing in long-term skin health, using treatments that protect against sun damage, dehydration, and stress – before these issues take hold.” From Hydrafacials to IV Drips, here are the most in-demand no-downtime skincare treatments Gen Z are booking this season – and why they’re changing the face of beauty. 1. Hydrafacial Syndeo™ – Instant Glow, Long-Term Results Favoured by frequent travellers, festival-goers, and social media influencers, Hydrafacial Syndeo™ is the ultimate reset for tired, travel-worn skin. This advanced facial combines deep cleansing, exfoliation, and hydration in a single session, delivering medical-grade results with no recovery time. It’s become a go-to for Gen Z who want camera-ready skin that stays radiant long after the flash. 2. IV Drips – Inner Wellness, Outer Glow Once associated with hangover relief, IV drips have evolved into wellness must-haves. Treatments like the NAD+ Drip and Get Glow protocol are gaining traction among health-conscious Gen Z clients seeking energy boosts, enhanced immunity, and brighter skin during high-travel months. The appeal? Instant nourishment from within—without downtime. 3. Anti-Wrinkle Injections – Subtle is the New Strong Forget frozen faces. Today’s Gen Z clients are opting for preventative anti-wrinkle injections that preserve natural expression while slowing the formation of fine lines. When performed by skilled professionals, these subtle tweaks offer long-term benefits without obvious signs of treatment—perfect for summer selfies under the sun. 4. Lip Fillers – Hydration Over Volume Natural beauty reigns supreme for this generation. Gen Z are choosing hydrating lip fillers that enhance rather than transform. The focus is on balance, shape, and moisture retention, resulting in a refreshed look that complements, rather than competes with, their natural features. 5. Skin Boosters – Hydration from the Inside Out When topical creams aren’t enough, injectable skin boosters offer deep hydration and improved skin elasticity. Especially popular in hotter months, these treatments help combat dullness and dryness from within. For Gen Z, they’re the secret weapon for maintaining glowing skin while on the move. A Generation Leading the Skincare Evolution More than just a trend, the connection between Gen Z and skincare reflects a broader wellness revolution. This demographic values science, subtlety, and self-care. They’re ditching outdated beauty ideals and embracing a holistic view of skincare that includes early intervention, total wellbeing, and natural enhancement. With no-downtime treatments becoming the new norm, Gen Z are not just investing in how they look—they’re investing in how they feel. And as clinics rise to meet their demand, one thing is clear: the future of skincare is preventative, personalised, and powered by Gen Z.
