It’s your wedding day. You wake up with a beaming smile and make your way to the bathroom mirror to take one last look at yourself before you’re officially a Mrs. And then you see it. A pimple the size of a pea sitting on your chin. It has to be a nightmare…right?
If there is one day in our life we need our skin to be perfect, it is without a doubt our wedding day. Lucky for you, we have the Top 5 Pre-Bridal Facials in Sydney to ensure your skin glows for your big day.
DERMAPLANING
This treatment has recently taken off as the new craze involving “shaving the face”. But don’t freak out, it’s not what it seems. Dermaplaning is a treatment involving an effective form of exfoliation to remove dead skin cells and vellus hairs, revealing healthy and youthful skin underneath. It doesn’t stop there either, it also stimulates the production of new skin cells! Mon Petit Medispa (Granville, NSW) is one of the many medispas and beauty rooms who swear on this popular treatment. Founder of Mon Petit, Samantha, says that dermaplaning “allows the skin to have enhanced benefits during and after treatment”. This includes benefits such as smoother skin texture, brightened complexion, flawless makeup application and increased skin cell turnover plus so much more.
If this does not sound like the perfect pre-bridal facial treatment, I don’t know what does.

VAMPIRE FACIAL
You have probably seen this controversial facial done on celebrities such as Kim Kardashian West, but don’t be fooled by its name. This treatment is a combination of microdermabrasion and the application of PRP (platelet-rich plasma). Sydney’s All Saints Clinic (Double Bay, NSW) was one of the first skin clinics in Australia to combine the Dermapen: Advanced Skin Needling and PRP into a single powerhouse treatment, The Advanced Vampire Facial. Led by Dr Joseph Hkeik (who will be a guest speaker at INPSIRE19), the team at All Saints Clinic believe that this pre-bridal treatment is becoming increasingly popular due to a number of reasons including its proven longer-lasting results (lasting 12-18 months), as well as its antioxidant and hydrating properties. One thing to note however, expect minor discomfort during this treatment- but trust us, short term pain for a long-term gain. If there is one treatment to transform your skin, it’s this one.
OXYGEN INFUSION
Want to know what treatment will (literally) breathe new life into your skin? Oxygen Facial is the answer. Don’t allow your skin to get in the way of your big day and opt for trying this ultimate hydration boost. The formation of wrinkles and fine lines are a direct result of a loss of skin elasticity which is attributed to decreased oxygen levels in the skin. This is where the Oxygen Infusion facial will help. Melissa Young (Glebe, NSW) is the perfect place to experience this treatment. The incredible beauty therapists here will indulge your skin with a double cleanse using lymphatic draining techniques, followed by an enzyme exfoliant mini peel and all intensified under steam. This treatment will transform your face, purifying the skin through their calming, cool hyperbaric oxygen machine which is infused with serums and rich in vitamins.
Expect less pain and more relaxation with the Oxygen Infusion Facial for your pre-bridal treatment.
DEEP CLEANSING FACIAL
Now for a more traditional treatment that is bound to do the job, there is nothing more satisfying than a standard, relaxing, old school facial. No needles or razors. Known to purify your face by clearing pores and hydrating your skin, a proper cleansing facial is the perfect pre-bridal routine to ensure your picture-perfect for the big day. Indulge with Rachel Louise Medispa’s (Drummoyne, NSW) Deep Cleansing Facial which is just that. The treatment is known to purify impurities from under the epidermis, and results in a clearer, smoother appearance to the skin. This all-inclusive treatment is made up of a double cleanse, exfoliation, peel, steam, extraction, mask, LED and the application of both moisturiser and SPF (essential to protect skin from sun damage).
ESCAGLOW FACIAL
Snail Facial? Ok, don’t freak out with this one, hear us out. European scientist observed that a specific snail (Cryptomphalus aspersa) produced defensive secretion to protect itself from burns and radiation. It also contained growth factors and antioxidants which allowed this snail to repair its skin from injury in less than 48 hours. So naturally, they created a facial from it. Bound to make your skin radiate for your wedding day, the Escaglow Facial will ensure you feel plumper and hydrated without an excessive ‘downtime’. Exclusive to Face Plus Medispa (Bondi, NSW), this powerful treatment combines Dermapen with the Tensage Intensive Serum 40 (the special secretion extracted from the Cryptomphalus aspersa snail). This serum helps to stimulate the body’s stem cell renewal- assisting in generating healthy, new ones. This facial is perfect for promoting skin repai, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, enhancing your skin tone, and also contains growth factor benefits.
