They are read from the service menus businesses publish on their own websites — 1,629 individual priced lines across 351 businesses in Sydney. They are not quotes, and businesses that publish pricing are not a random sample of the market.

How much does a facial cost in Sydney?

Facial treatments as published by salons, spas and skin studios. This page is the Sydney cut of it.

The range in Sydney

Lower quartile: $70
Midpoint: $130
Upper quartile: $198

Half of the facials prices published in Sydney sit between $70 and $198, with a midpoint of $130. That is drawn from 351 businesses in Sydney that publish this pricing, as collected on 25 September 2026.

Against the rest of the country

The midpoint in Sydney is $10 above the national midpoint of $120, or about 8 per cent dearer. That gap is between published price lists, not between quotes, so it describes how businesses advertise rather than what every appointment costs.

Why the range is so wide

A wide category holding two ends of a market. An express or introductory facial anchors the bottom; the top is machine-assisted and multi-step treatments, often sold as courses, which is why the upper quartile runs so far ahead of the median.

The other cities

Largest sample first. A city appears only where at least 25 businesses publish this pricing, because below that a single expensive salon moves the whole row.

What these numbers are, and are not

Every figure is computed from businesses’ own published service menus — 1,629 priced lines from 351 businesses in Sydney, collected on 25 September 2026. None of it is typed in by hand.

A published price is not a quote. What you are charged depends on your hair, your skin and how long the appointment actually takes, and many businesses quote on consultation rather than publishing at all. Nationally, 2,199 businesses in our catalogue offer this service and 2,199 publish a price for it. The ones that publish are not a random sample of the ones that do not.
