The Treatment
The Glass Facial
The Glass Facial is 23MD's signature regenerative facial. It layers microneedling, micro-dosed neuromodulator and polynucleotides in a single, carefully sequenced session to improve clarity, glow and skin recovery.
Most facials work on the surface; most injectables ignore it. The Glass Facial sits in the middle — a regenerative treatment that improves how skin actually behaves over weeks, not just how it looks the morning after.

About
What it is, how it works.
How it works
Microneedling creates controlled micro-channels that stimulate the skin's own repair cascade. A micro-dosed neuromodulator is then applied superficially to refine pores and calm sebaceous activity. Finally, polynucleotides are introduced to support cellular repair, hydration and collagen quality. Each step is timed so that the next builds on the last.
Why it matters
Most facials work on the surface; most injectables ignore it. The Glass Facial sits in the middle — a regenerative treatment that improves how skin actually behaves over weeks, not just how it looks the morning after.
