Body Scrub & Polish: What Happens and How Often to Book

Washbasin and vanity at Angkasa Wellness Spa

Delhi NCR is hard on skin. Dust, pollution, hard water, air conditioning in summer and dry heaters in winter all leave it dull and rough. A body scrub and polish is one of the simplest ways to bring it back.

What's the difference between a scrub and a polish?

  • Body scrub: exfoliation with a grainy mixture to remove dead skin cells.
  • Body polish: a scrub followed by deep nourishment — massage with a rich moisturising cream or oil — so skin is left smooth and glowing.

At Angkasa, our body scrub & polish combines both.

What happens in a session

  1. Preparation — you change into a disposable garment and lie on a covered bed.
  2. Exfoliation — your therapist scrubs each area in circular movements, section by section.
  3. Rinse — you shower to remove the scrub.
  4. Polish — a nourishing massage with moisturiser to finish.

You'll feel the difference straight away: skin that's softer and more even.

When to book before an event

  • Weddings and functions: book 2–3 days before, not the same day. This gives any sensitivity time to settle. Our pre-wedding spa plan has a full timeline.
  • Holidays: a scrub before a beach trip helps a tan look more even.
  • Change of season: especially early winter, when skin starts to get dry.

How often?

Once a month is plenty for most people. Exfoliating too often can irritate the skin.

Aftercare

  • Skip waxing and shaving for 24 hours before and after.
  • Avoid hot showers and strong soaps for a day.
  • Moisturise every day afterwards to keep the results.
  • Use sunscreen on exposed skin — fresh skin is more sensitive to the sun.

Who should avoid it

Avoid scrubs on sunburn, open cuts, active rashes, eczema flare-ups or recently waxed skin. Tell us about skin conditions or allergies when booking.

Pair it with a massage

Many guests book a scrub followed by a relaxing Swedish or aroma massage. If you want something extra indulgent, our GK-1 outlet offers a chocolate cream therapy.

Body scrub & polish is available at our Gurugram outlets in Sector 29 and Golf Course Road.
