Korean Glass Facial
The Korean Glass Facial is inspired by the Korean skincare philosophy of achieving skin that appears poreless, smooth, and crystal-clear - just like glass. What sets the Korean Glass Facial apart is its use of a gold-plated microneedling device combined with customised skin boosters rich in K-beauty-inspired ingredients like peptides, hyaluronic acid, and botanical extracts. This synergy deeply hydrates and refines the skin, creating the signature ultra-smooth, luminous ‘glass skin’ finish that defines the Korean aesthetic.
At Ambra Clinic, we customise each Korean Glass Facial to your skin type and concerns. It’s ideal for improving skin tone, texture, hydration, and overall radiance, and is particularly effective for dull, tired-looking complexions, fine lines, enlarged pores, and mild pigmentation.
This cutting-edge treatment goes far beyond a traditional facial by combining microneedling with mesotherapy, infusing the skin with a bespoke blend of vitamins, peptides, hyaluronic acid, and growth factors. The treatment process starts with a thorough cleanse, followed by gentle microneedling that delivers micro-injections just beneath the skin's surface. This allows the nourishing cocktail of active ingredients to be absorbed deeply where they can stimulate collagen, improve elasticity, and hydrate from within. A soothing mask or LED therapy may be applied post-treatment to calm the skin and enhance results.
Downtime is minimal - you may experience mild redness or sensitivity for 24-48 hours, but most patients resume normal activities the same day. Your skin may look instantly refreshed, with full results developing over 3-7 days and lasting up to 4-6 weeks. Regular sessions help maintain that ‘glass skin’ effect.

FAQ
Am I suitable for the Korean Glass Facial?
Many people are found to be suitable for the Korean Glass Facial, especially those looking to improve skin hydration, texture, and overall radiance. It’s ideal for dull, dry, or tired skin and can also help reduce fine lines, enlarged pores, and uneven tone. As the treatment is gentle and minimally invasive, it suits most skin types, including sensitive skin. However, it may not be recommended if you have active acne, rosacea, or certain skin infections. A full consultation at Ambra Clinic ensures your skin is assessed and a personalised treatment plan is created for safe, effective results.
Is the Korean Glass Facial safe?
The Korean Glass Facial is considered a safe, non-surgical treatment when performed by trained professionals using high-quality products and sterile equipment. The microneedling device used is CE-certified and designed for precise, superficial skin infusion, minimising the risk of complications. The serums used are typically packed with clinically tested, skin-friendly ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, peptides, and antioxidants. At Ambra Clinic, all treatments follow strict hygiene and safety protocols to ensure your wellbeing at every stage of the process.
Is the treatment process painful?
The Korean Glass Facial is generally well tolerated with little to no discomfort. A topical numbing cream is usually applied beforehand to ensure your comfort. You may feel a slight tingling or prickling sensation as the microneedles deliver the serum, but most patients describe the experience as comfortable and even relaxing. The gold-plated needles are ultra-fine and shallow, designed to reach just beneath the skin’s surface without causing trauma. After treatment, the skin may feel slightly warm or tight, similar to mild sun exposure.
Are there any side effects or risks associated with the Korean Glass Facial?
Side effects are usually minimal but can include mild redness, slight swelling, or sensitivity in the treated area, typically resolving within 24-48 hours. In less common cases, minor bruising or temporary dryness may occur. The risk of infection is extremely low when proper aftercare is followed and the procedure is performed by a qualified practitioner. At Ambra Clinic, all products used are high-quality and sterile, and we provide detailed aftercare guidance to ensure your skin heals beautifully and safely.
How much downtime can I expect?
The Korean Glass Facial typically involves very little downtime. Most people experience light redness or sensitivity immediately after the treatment, similar to a mild sunburn, which usually subsides within a day or two. You can often return to work or daily activities the same day, although it’s best to avoid makeup, direct sunlight, intense exercise, and harsh skincare products for at least 24 hours. Full results typically appear within 3-7 days, as the skin becomes visibly more hydrated, refined, and radiant.
