Hollywood Facial — Get Event-Ready Skin
What Is It?
The Hollywood Facial — sometimes called the Hollywood Peel or Red Carpet Facial — is a premium skin resurfacing treatment designed to give you that luminous, camera-ready glow. It's the treatment celebrities swear by before major events, and it's now available right here in Mickleham.
This treatment works by deeply exfoliating the skin, clearing away dead skin cells and surface impurities to reveal the fresher, brighter skin underneath. Your Hollywood Facial at Primrose also includes free LED Light Therapy — a painless, zero-downtime add-on that accelerates skin repair and boosts collagen production.
Who Is It Best For?
This facial is ideal if you have an upcoming event — a wedding, engagement, birthday, or a special night out — and you want your skin looking its absolute best. It's also brilliant if your skin has been feeling tired or dull and needs an instant lift.
It suits most skin types including sensitive skin, and there's zero downtime — you can head straight from the treatment room to wherever the night takes you.
How Often Should You Book It?
For an upcoming occasion, we recommend booking 7–10 days before your event so your skin has time to settle into its best. For ongoing maintenance, once a month keeps your glow consistent.

Korean Hydra Facial — Your Skin's Deep Drink of Water
What Is It?
The Korean Hydra Facial has taken the beauty world by storm — and for very good reason. Inspired by the Korean skincare philosophy behind that coveted glass skin look, this facial combines deep cleansing, intense hydration, and skin-boosting actives in one thorough, relaxing treatment.
At Primrose, our Korean Hydra Facial is just $100 — and it comes packed with extras: free LED Therapy, blackhead and whitehead removal, and a relaxing back massage. It's genuinely one of the best-value skin treatments in Melbourne's northern suburbs.
Who Is It Best For?
This one is your go-to if your skin has been feeling dry, tight, dull, or congested. If you've tried moisturisers and serums but your skin still feels dehydrated underneath, the Hydra Facial addresses the issue at a much deeper level — infusing nourishing serums directly into the skin.
It's also fantastic for anyone wanting to try a facial for the first time — it's deeply relaxing, completely non-invasive, and delivers visible results from session one.
How Often Should You Book It?
Monthly sessions deliver the best cumulative results. Many of our clients from Craigieburn, Wollert, and Merrifield make it a regular part of their self-care routine — and they genuinely notice the difference over time.

Carbon Facial (CO₂) — Glow Before Your Next Event
What Is It?
The Carbon Facial — also known as the Carbon Laser Peel — is a next-level skin treatment that uses a combination of medical-grade liquid carbon and laser energy to deeply cleanse, resurface, and rejuvenate the skin. It's particularly popular before a big occasion, because the results are dramatic, immediate, and completely natural-looking.
Here's how it works: liquid carbon is applied across the skin, where it penetrates deep into pores, bonding with oil, dead skin cells, and impurities. A laser is then passed over the skin — the laser energy is attracted to the carbon, which vaporises it along with everything it's absorbed. What remains is clean, smooth, refreshed skin. Your Carbon Facial at Primrose also includes a complimentary skin mask and free LED Therapy.
Who Is It Best For?
The Carbon Facial is particularly well-suited to oily skin, acne-prone skin, or anyone dealing with enlarged pores, uneven texture, or a dull complexion. If your skin tends to get congested or looks heavy and tired — this treatment cuts straight to the root of the issue.
It's also an excellent choice before a special occasion. Clients regularly walk out looking visibly brighter, cleaner, and more polished — with zero recovery time needed.
How Often Should You Book It?
Most clients see the best cumulative results with a course of 4–6 sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart. A one-off session before an event is equally popular and very effective.
