The Peptide Infusion Facial.
The Peptide Infusion Facial is microneedling with a peptide infusion, targeted to your main area of concern — eighty minutes for the face, $300 — that works peptides into the skin after light resurfacing has opened the surface. Cleanse, resurface, infuse, settle. It’s carried out in clinic under a registered nurse, and it earns its place through a skin plan.
What is a peptide infusion facial?
Microneedling with a peptide infusion, targeted to your main area of concern. Thousands of controlled micro-channels are created in the skin, which stimulates your own collagen and elastin. The serum is infused through those channels rather than left on the surface. Eighty minutes, $300 for the face.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids. They act as signals — they tell the skin to repair and rebuild, supporting collagen production, wound healing and barrier function. That is why this treatment is aimed at hydration, barrier strength and the healing of acne and surgical scarring.
The difference from Microneedling with BioRePeel is what follows the needling. BioRePeel resurfaces — it is the corrective option, aimed at pigmentation, uneven tone, sun damage and dullness. Peptides do not resurface. They are the regenerative option, aimed at repair: scarring, hydration, barrier strength and long-term resilience. Same needling underneath; different work afterwards.
Which one suits you — if either — is a plan decision, not a menu decision.
What happens during the hour?
Four stages. The order matters: the infusion only works on a surface the first two stages have prepared.
A check of what your skin is doing that day, against your plan. Then a thorough clinical cleanse and preparation of the skin.
Microneedling — controlled micro-channels through which the peptide serum is worked into the skin rather than left on it. Confirmed by Taliha, 9 August 2026: the earlier “light resurfacing” description on this page was wrong, and the previous site was right.
The peptide serum is worked into the prepared skin — peptides with hyaluronic acid, amino acids, vitamins and minerals.
A calming layer to finish, and written aftercare specific to what was used on your skin.
Time, price, timing.
The numbers, published. The price on this page is the price in the room — no packages, no quote-on-request.
- Duration
- 80 minutes (face) · 90 minutes (face, neck and chest)
- Price
- $300 (face) · $350 (face, neck and chest)
- How often
- Commonly every four to six weeks. How many, and over what period, is set in your plan — skin responds over weeks, not days.
- Suits
- Skin where the goal is repair rather than resurfacing — acne or surgical scarring, skin that needs hydration, and barriers that need strengthening. Also where collagen stimulation is wanted without the resurfacing a peel adds.
- Doesn’t suit
- Not while you’re pregnant or breastfeeding. Not over an active skin infection, a cold sore, an open wound, sunburn, or skin that’s significantly irritated in the area being treated. Not where there’s a known allergy or sensitivity to an ingredient used, or an active inflammatory skin condition that treatment could aggravate. If you’ve had another cosmetic or skin procedure recently, this may wait until the skin has fully recovered. The nurse decides suitability before every appointment, not once at the start. If you’re unsure, the consultation settles it — and anything medical belongs with your GP.
Frequency is a starting point, not a schedule. Your plan sets the timing for your skin.
What about aftercare?
For a day or two afterwards, some redness — or occasionally light bruising in more vascular areas — can appear. It settles on its own.
- You’ll leave with written aftercare instructions, specific to what was used on your skin on the day.
- No makeup for at least 24 hours, unless the nurse tells you otherwise.
- Keep the skin hydrated, and wear SPF 50+ every day while it recovers.
- Pause retinoids, exfoliating acids — AHAs, BHAs and PHAs — vitamin C and any other actives for three to five days, or until the skin is back to normal.
- No heat, vigorous exercise, swimming, saunas or direct sun for the first 24 to 48 hours.
If anything looks or feels wrong afterwards, call the clinic on 0466 310 045. Anything medical goes to your GP.
Part of a plan, not instead of one.
An infusion is only worth doing when the skin underneath it is ready to use what’s infused. That’s an assessment call, not a menu call. The consultation is ninety minutes with a registered nurse, $150, and ends with a written plan you keep — whether it names this facial or not.
Asked about the peptide facial.
Answered the way they would be answered in the room.
What is a peptide infusion facial?
Microneedling with a peptide infusion, targeted to your main area of concern. Controlled micro-channels are created in the skin, which stimulates your own collagen and elastin, and the serum is infused through them rather than left on the surface. Peptides signal the skin to repair and rebuild — so this is the regenerative option, aimed at scarring, hydration and barrier strength. It is a clinical treatment rather than a facial, which is why it runs eighty minutes and why it is assessed first.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
It is needling, so it is not the soft option and it is not the automatic answer for reactive skin. Whether a compromised barrier can take it is exactly the sort of judgement the assessment exists to make, and sometimes the answer is to settle the skin first and needle later. It is aimed at hydration, skin quality, texture, dullness, fine lines and recovery. What rules it out is anything that makes needling a bad idea in the first place, acne active enough that it needs managing a different way, or anything that slows healing — this depends on the skin closing again afterwards. Skin that reacts to everything often reacts because of what is being used on it at home, and that is usually where the conversation starts.
Is there any downtime?
Expect redness for a day or two and occasionally light bruising in more vascular areas — it is needling, so plan it around anything you have on rather than the other way round. Follow the written aftercare you are given on the day rather than a general rule from a page.
How is it different from the glass skin facial?
They are different kinds of treatment rather than different sizes of one. The glass skin facial works on the surface and is aimed at clarity and reflectivity — ninety minutes, $250. This is microneedling, which works below the surface, and it is finished with peptides rather than a peel. Which suits you depends on what your skin is doing and whether it is in a state to be needled at all.
Can you have it while pregnant?
Not automatically — it is needling, with actives, so it is assessed rather than assumed. Tell us you are pregnant when you book rather than when you arrive, so the appointment is planned properly instead of adjusted on the spot.
