What Is Hammam Care?
Hammam care is a traditional body purification ritual that deeply cleanses the skin and opens the pores.
The skin, softened by warm steam, is exfoliated with a kese scrub, removing dead cells. Then, a gentle foam massage revitalizes and refreshes the skin.
This timeless ritual helps eliminate toxins, boosts circulation, and leaves the skin silky-smooth and radiant.
