New York, New York (February 7, 2018): The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel New York Downtown today announced the launch of the exclusive Haute Couture Treatment by leading skincare range, Dr Burgener Switzerland.  Available exclusively at The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel New York Downtown, the Haute Couture concept includes a skin analysis followed by a personalized twelve month program utilizing the excellence of the most up to date cosmetology, cutting edge technology and high performance anti-aging treatments with cosmetics specifically created for each client.

Created by Dr Pauline Burgener over three years, the focus of the Haute Couture Treatment is to personalize products and treatments specific to the client's skincare needs. Currently this treatment is only available at one other Four Seasons property in Europe - Four Seasons Grand Hotel du Cap-Ferrat on the French Riviera. Dr Pauline Burgener, co-founder and CEO explains, “Haute Couture is a revolutionary skin treatment that personalizes products and treatments to each person's skin, using cutting edge technology. I look at the needs of the skin and the levels of ingredients that are required for that skin type. The findings go to my laboratory in Switzerland and we produce a personalized product range for the client based on these results.”

Every Haute Couture product contains natural extracts of iris and cedar wood, powerful anti-aging ingredients. High tech ingredients include ceramides, specific peptides to relax facial muscles and Chronopeptides to stimulate the natural defenses of the skin, enriched with vitamin D. “We're working on restoring the mechanisms of the skin by adding elements that will improve the reaction and full functioning of the cells,” states Dr Burgener.

The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel New York Downtown is the exclusive provider of the Dr Burgener Switzerland Haute Couture Treatment in the United States. Director of Spa, Tara Cruz, states “We are thrilled to offer this exclusive treatment to our very special clientele. The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel New York Downtown leads the way in innovative treatments and technologies. Dr Burgener Switzerland is an iconic brand that leads the way in this forum and thus, is the perfect partner for us.”

Available Treatments at The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel New York Downtown:

Based on the results of the analysis, an individual skin treatment will involve multiple non-invasive advanced techniques. Price upon consultation.

The Haute Couture Excellence Treatment:

For the ultimate in skin-care luxury, The Haute Couture Excellence Treatment defines the scientific approach to skincare and anti-aging. Following a personalized skin analysis, results are sent to the Dr Burgener Research and Expertise Center in Switzerland. The laboratory will then create an individual “Therapy Box” which will include personalized skin care products made of ingredients specifically chosen and adapted for each client. Following this a complete 12-month program will be created, with a personal follow-up by Dr Pauline Burgener and Haute Couture expert. The Haute Couture service continues for the client with monthly facial treatments, during which products are activated into the skin, improving microcirculation and boosting cell regeneration.  A full re-analysis of the skin takes place every three months, of which the results are then used to modify or develop a new cosmetic line for each client's needs.
