As NSW emerges from months of isolation from our friends, families and beauty therapists, what better way is there to celebrate our new found freedom (and prepare for all those first catch up selfies) than by scheduling in some seriously luxurious appointments? Whether you prefer traditional techniques, the latest clinical treatments, or anything in between, we’ve got you covered. Read on to discover some of Sydney’s best beauty salons and their most indulgent treatments.
Remember, in accordance with current Covid-19 business guidelines; customers must be fully vaccinated to access all retail premises, salons and spas. Masks must also be worn in waiting rooms. For those who are still awaiting vaccinations, are apprehensive about face to face contact, or just want to be pampered at home, we have also included our favourite home delivery treatments.

The Best Beauty Salons And Treatments In Sydney For Glow Inducing Exfoliation
Jacqueline Brennan Skin
With an expansive treatment menu of bespoke cosmeceutical facials, high tech therapies, and results-driven techniques, Jacqueline Brennan’s eponymous skin clinic is where science and beauty come together.
After your personal skin consultation with one of the clinic’s expert aestheticians, we recommend a Dermaplaning session. Unlike waxing or traditional exfoliation, dermaplaning removes peach fuzz, dead cells and debris using a medical-grade blade. In addition to revealing brighter, newer skin, Dermaplaning also improves the penetration of skin care ingredients for better results. Although there are little to no side effects after Dermaplaning, fresh skin can be more susceptible to burning, so make sure to apply sunscreen!
Location: Level 1/559 Military Rd, Mosman NSW 2088
Treatment: Dermaplaning
Price: $120.00
QED Skincare
Created by Sydney Based Pharmaceutical Chemist Shoshana Eisner, QED Skincare is a brand focused on creating effective, natural, and experience-driven products specifically for sensitive skin types. This philosophy has been brought to life in the brand’s new Bellevue Hill salon and its extensive range of treatments.
For gentle, comprehensive exfoliation, look no further than the Fresh Papaya AHA Resurfacing Peel. Powered by Collagen boosting Papaya Enzymes and clarifying, moisturising Green Tea Extract, the peel is perfect for dry, blemish-prone and aging skin. Despite its name, the Fresh Papaya AHA Resurfacing Peel does not cause peeling – skin is plumped, glowing and resurfaced with zero downtime.
Location: 1/11 Bellevue Rd, Bellevue Hill NSW 2023
Treatment: Fresh Papaya AHA Resurfacing Peel
Price: $95.00
Clear Skincare Clinics
At every Clear Skincare Clinics location, the skilful teams of doctors, nurses and aestheticians are experts in analysing skin concerns and administering the latest high tech treatments to improve them. Clear Skincare Clinics believes that good skin is life-changing, so they have developed a treatment menu as effective as it is accessible.
To exfoliate, hydrate and refine tired skin, we cannot recommend the multi-step Hydrodermabrasion treatment more highly. After a clinical assessment, skin is cleansed with a Glycolic Acid Gel and dead cells are removed with a diamond-tipped exfoliator. The fresh skin is then deeply cleansed and hydrated with a pressurised infusion of Glycolic and Hyaluronic Acid before a customised active serum, and intense moisturiser is applied. Once this is fully absorbed, a lymphatic facial massage lifts the skin, encourages circulation and brings on serious relaxation.

Fortunately, Melanie Grant’s multi-step Organic Hydrating Glow Facial has the power to revive tired skin, dark circles and even transepidermal water loss for instant energisation. After cleansing with an AHA Peel and Botanical Hydration Infusion, the skin is enveloped in a hydrating Hyaluronic Acid mask while light therapy stimulates the production of Collagen and Elastin. The result? Clearer, brighter and plumped looking skin.

Using a Chromophore – The atoms in molecules responsible for colour – Rich Photoconverting Gel and fluorescent light, Kleresca® treatments stimulate cellular repair and stabilise redness to improve skin health, clarity and texture at every level, not just the surface.
