Signature
Facials

Five distinct facial experiences, each crafted for a specific skin concern or mood — from deeply nourishing holistic rituals to targeted clinical treatments.

5 TreatmentsNurse-LedNo DowntimeAll Skin Types
01
Holistic Facial
RelaxationVegan & Cruelty-FreeAll Skin Types

A deeply nourishing and restorative facial experience built around calm and connection. Using only natural, vegan, and cruelty-free products that work with your skin’s biology rather than against it, this facial combines skilled massage techniques with the ancient practice of Gua Sha and lymphatic drainage massage to leave you — and your skin — genuinely renewed.

Gua Sha involves the gentle gliding of a smooth stone tool across the face to stimulate circulation, reduce puffiness, encourage lymphatic flow, and create a natural sculpting and lifting effect. Combined with a lymphatic drainage massage, the treatment helps to decongest the skin, reduce fluid retention in the face, and restore a healthy glow. This is the facial for when you need to fully switch off.

Fire and Ice Facial
Pore RefinementBrighteningAnti-Puffiness

A dynamic treatment that harnesses the power of opposing temperatures — thermotherapy (heat) and cryotherapy (cold) — to deliver transformative results for congested, puffy, or dull skin. The contrast of temperatures is used strategically throughout the facial to loosen blocked pores, extract impurities, reduce puffiness, and then encourage those pores to constrict again — effectively training them to appear smaller over time.

Heat opens the pores and softens the sebum (oil) and pollutants trapped inside them, making extraction cleaner and more comfortable. Cold then immediately constricts the pores, reduces inflammation, and creates an instantly visible tightening and brightening effect. The result is skin that looks clearer, more even-toned, and visibly fresher. Particular benefits are seen around the eye area — reducing puffiness and dark circles — and across the overall complexion for a luminous, awake appearance.

Acne Protocol Facial
Acne-Prone SkinClinicalCongestion

A targeted, clinically focused facial designed for acne-prone, oily, or congested skin. This is not a gentle pamper treatment — it’s a purposeful protocol that uses targeted acne-fighting ingredients, advanced technology, and professional technique to deliver a meaningful improvement in breakout-prone skin.

The treatment combines steam (to open pores and prepare the skin for deep cleansing), a clay mask (to absorb excess oil and draw out impurities), and ultrasonic skin technology (which uses sound wave vibrations to dislodge dead skin cells from blocked pores, revitalise the skin surface, and enhance the penetration of active ingredients). Anti-inflammatory, antibacterial ingredients are used throughout to calm active breakouts and reduce redness without stripping or drying the skin. Regular Acne Protocol Facials work best as part of a consistent skin management plan.

Collagen Supercharge Facial
Anti-AgeingFirmingAll Ages

An intensive collagen-boosting facial that is as much about prevention as it is about treatment. Suitable for all ages — because building a strong collagen foundation in your 20s and 30s is just as valuable as replenishing it in your 40s and 50s — this facial uses collagen-stimulating and collagen-supporting ingredients to work with your skin’s natural production processes.

The treatment improves skin firmness, hydration, and texture over a course of sessions, with visible improvements in the appearance of fine lines and a noticeably lifted, more resilient quality to the skin. It finishes with a luxurious intensive collagen soak — a final immersive step that delivers a concentrated dose of collagen-supporting actives for maximum absorption and a radiant post-facial glow. An excellent treatment to pair with regular maintenance appointments for a proactive approach to skin ageing.

CBD Facial
Sensitive SkinAnti-InflammatoryHolistic Wellbeing

An elevated facial experience that goes beyond the surface — combining the proven skincare benefits of full-spectrum CBD with a genuinely immersive, holistic treatment. CBD (cannabidiol) is a naturally occurring compound with well-established anti-inflammatory properties that works both topically and systemically to calm, balance, and restore the skin.

This facial is ideal for reactive, inflamed, or stressed skin — particularly for those dealing with redness, sensitivity, or inflammation that other products have failed to calm. Full-spectrum CBD (which contains the complete range of plant compounds for maximum efficacy) is used throughout the treatment to reduce skin inflammation, regulate sebaceous activity, promote the skin’s natural balance, and create a deeply calming effect on both the skin and the nervous system. Leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more balanced — in every sense.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose the right facial for me?
+
The easiest starting point is to think about your main concern right now. If you want pure relaxation and a glowing complexion — Holistic. If your skin looks congested, dull, or puffy — Fire and Ice. If you’re dealing with breakouts and oily skin — Acne Protocol. If you want to address fine lines and improve firmness — Collagen Supercharge. If your skin is sensitive, reactive, or inflamed, or you’re interested in a whole-body calming experience — CBD. If you’re still not sure when you book, I’ll ask a few quick questions at the start of your appointment to confirm the best choice for your skin that day.
How often should I have a facial?
+
Monthly facials are the gold standard for most skin types — this aligns with the skin’s natural cell renewal cycle (approximately 28 days) and means each treatment works on fresh skin. For those with active acne or specific concerns being actively managed, every 3–4 weeks can be even more beneficial. For others, a facial every 6–8 weeks alongside a good at-home routine is perfectly effective. One of the most underappreciated benefits of regular facials is simply having your skin assessed and treated by someone who knows it well — catching issues early and adjusting your approach over time.
Can facials be combined with other Amber Grove treatments?
+
Yes — facial treatments pair well with many of the other services at Amber Grove. LED phototherapy can be added on to most facials as a finishing treatment to enhance results and reduce any redness. Dermaplaning can be done beforehand to prepare the skin surface for maximum product absorption. Signature facials should be spaced at least 2 weeks from microneedling, chemical peels, or injectable treatments to allow proper healing time. I’m always happy to help you plan a combination approach that maximises your results.
Are the facials suitable for men?
+
Absolutely — all five facials are suitable for male clients. Men’s skin has its own specific characteristics (typically thicker, oilier, and subject to the regular mechanical stress of shaving), and each of the five facials can be adapted accordingly. The Acne Protocol Facial is particularly popular with male clients dealing with congestion and breakouts, while the Collagen Supercharge and Holistic facials are consistently well-received by those wanting a genuine, effective skincare treatment without the aesthetic industry’s sometimes-female-focused marketing. Everyone deserves great skin.
Is there any downtime after a signature facial?
+
All five facials have minimal to no downtime — you can return to normal activities immediately after your appointment. You may notice some mild redness immediately after the Fire and Ice Facial or Acne Protocol Facial, which settles within an hour or two. Some gentle flakiness is occasionally noticed in the days after the Acne Protocol Facial as skin renews. None of the facials require you to avoid daily life, and most clients leave looking genuinely better than when they arrived. I’ll always tell you exactly what to expect at your appointment.
