Glo

Glo is a med-aesthetic clinic in Mosta built around a new concept in aesthetics and beauty. The idea is to offer affordable medical aesthetic treatments using medical-grade technology, with a team that works together to give each client a tailor-made experience in a professional setting.

The treatment list is short and focused: Botox and dermal fillers, laser hair removal, three Xlase resurfacing facials and micro-needling. You can see how it compares with similar providers in our directory of cosmetic clinics in Malta, which also lists AestheLab Clinic and Academy elsewhere on the island.

The Glo approach

Glo's sole purpose is providing the finest quality service through an understanding of what each client needs, blending science and artistry to improve how you look and feel. The clinic works as a team and keeps up with newer techniques through continued learning, so treatments remain as safe and up to date as possible.

That makes it a sensible choice if you prefer to talk through your options with a small team before committing. Because prices and opening hours are not published, the best first step is to ask a few questions about what you want and when you will be on the island.

Botox and dermal fillers

Botox is a purified protein that temporarily reduces nerve signals to a muscle, which lessens unwanted muscle movement. At Glo it is used to soften wrinkles, lines and furrows in the upper face, and the first signs of change can appear within about three days.

Dermal fillers sit alongside Botox in the same service. Where Botox relaxes movement, fillers are typically used to restore volume and shape, and a practitioner can explain which suits you. This page describes services and is not medical advice.

Laser hair removal

Glo uses a diode laser, working at a wavelength of 800nm, that targets the pigment in each hair and carries heat into the follicle. The operator sets the parameters to suit the thickness and number of hairs, and the energy level is increased with each session for the best results.

Clients can expect noticeably less hair, around half or more, after the first two sessions. Because the number of sessions needed depends on the individual, it is worth discussing your areas and skin when you enquire.

Xlase resurfacing facials

The Xlase facials last around 90 minutes and combine a resurfacing peel with a diode laser, giving a double effect: the peel loosens dead surface cells while the laser works deeper to stimulate collagen and tighten skin. Three versions are offered.

The rejuvenation facial treats lines, loose skin, age spots, uneven colour and red veins. The oily and acne version targets blemishes, blackheads, open pores, inflammation, scarring and pigmentation, with anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. The pigmentation facial is aimed at uneven tone, old scar tissue, sunburn marks and age spots on the face and body.

Micro-needling

Micro-needling, also called collagen induction therapy, uses sterile fine needles to create tiny punctures that prompt the skin to produce collagen and elastin. It is used for scars, wrinkles, pigmentation and general rejuvenation, and it can be done with or without laser. A course of three to five sessions, spaced between two and five weeks apart and supported by suitable home care, is the typical approach.

Planning a visit to Mosta

Mosta is close to the centre of the island, so the clinic is a short drive from most areas. Our Mdina guide covers the walled city nearby, and our Valletta guide is a good day out. Visitors can plan with our where to stay in Malta, Malta holidays overview and flights to Malta from the UK pages.

If you are combining treatments with a longer trip, our Malta weather guide helps with timing, things to do in Malta fills the rest of your days, and our UK relocation guide for Malta is useful if you are staying for good. A hairdresser such as AMIS City Spa and Beauty Salon is another listed option.
