YOUR Complete Guide to a HydraFacial

The Hydrafacial treatment removes dead skin cells and extracts impurities while simultaneously bathing the new skin with cleansing, hydrating and moisturizing agents. The resurfacing procedure is soothing, moisturizing, non-irritating, and immediately effective.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and suddenly felt your skin needs help? Roughness, dullness, oily or dry patches, blackheads, whiteheads and discolorations are all strong indications it’s time to seek out some TLC for your skin. You might assume a regular spa facial is the answer to your collection of concerns, but it’s time to consider an innovative procedure called Hydrafacial, which is making waves as one of the most popular new non-invasive treatments for long-term skin health.

NEW! Enhance your treatment with Hydraneedling.

This treatment combines Hydrafacial® and Hydraneedling using ultra-fine nanoneedles (smaller than microneedles) to create microchannels in the skin, opening up the pores and stimulating collagen production. Adding Hydraneedling to the Hydrafacial enhances product absorption and promotes superficial skin rejuvenation. The tiny microchannels created by nanoneedles allow for better penetration of the booster, serums, and other topical skincare products, increasing their efficacy in addressing surface-level concerns like dullness, uneven tone, and minor imperfections.

This treatment is painless and does not require numbing.

• Removes impurities by cleansing and gently extracting the skin
• Unclogs pores
• Hydrates the skin by infusing serums that contain hyaluronic acids and antioxidants
• Instantly achieve brighter and smoother skin
• Each treatment is curated for you allowing our skincare experts to select specific serums and boosters to address your skin concerns.
• Treatments have no downtime, meaning you can immediately resume your daily activities after the procedure.

It provides instant gratification with zero downtime.
Unlike treatments such as laser skin resurfacing, which require time for prep and healing, there is no need for downtime after getting a Hydrafacial. If you choose to do so, you can put on makeup and immediately pick up where you left off in your daily schedule. You can also get it directly before an important event such as a wedding or class reunion to get that immediate radiance. Celebrities often undergo this treatment on the same day they are due to walk the red carpet because they feel so confident their skin will be “camera-ready” with no fear of irritation.

There is no discomfort after the procedure.
Many people report an uncomfortable burning sensation after getting a traditional facial, which is why you can’t immediately go from an ordinary facial to a special occasion. Hydrafacial, on the other hand, is gentler on the skin, so you will not feel any unpleasant or painful reaction afterward.

You can get a Hydrafacial alongside other procedures.
If you are planning to get other minimally invasive procedures such as botox/dysport or filler, you can opt to get those done on the same day as your Hydrafacial.

It’s highly customizable.
A Hydrafacial is an excellent way to address specific skin concerns, allowing you to focus on your priorities. For example, if you wish to brighten your skin or minimize the appearance of fine lines, you can choose to add nutrient boosters to enhance your experience.

frequently asked questions

How Does HydraFacial Work?

The Hydrafacial is a simple, in-office treatment that can take as little as 60 minutes.

1. The first step involves cleansing and exfoliation, using a deplaning tool to open pores and sweep away the topmost layer of makeup debris and dead skin cells. Patients have described this phase as a cool paintbrush running over the face.

2. After cleaning your skin, we apply a light acid peel. However, this is not your typical aggressive chemical peel; it’s a blend of glycolic and salicylic acid, which is progressive enough to dissolve the damaged, dead layer of skin with only a mild tingle.

3. Next, we use a specially designed vortex-extraction nozzle to suction dirt, debris and oil from your pores. Unlike extractions in a typical facial, there is no squeezing, pinching or popping involved in a Hydrafacial, so there is a reduced risk of infection.

4. Lastly, a handpiece called the vortex-infusion tool infuses an antioxidant and collagen-rich serum onto the skin to promote elasticity and hydration.

What Is Hydradermabrasion?

A traditional dermabrasion procedure involves exfoliating the top layer of skin with a fine grit. Hydradermabrasion uses a gentler approach that cleanses pores while simultaneously infusing the skin with intensive moisturizing serums that leave skin glowing and radiant.

Many clients report seeing visible skin refinement and an even, radiant skin tone after just one treatment. The smooth results and hydration may last a week or even longer, depending on how well you observe your skin care regimen. Follow-up treatments can help you maintain your results even longer.

Hyadraneedling vs. microneedling

Hydraneedling uses nanoneedles and is a non-invasive treatment that uses tiny stainless steel tips to create microchannels in the skin’s outer layer with zero downtime. Hydraneedling is a more gentle approach to skin resurfacing and is perfect for anyone who may not be ready for more invasive treatments.

Microneedling goes deeper into the skin, using fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, perfect for targeting lines, wrinkles, and acne scars. There is a short period of downtime with microneedling, as it targets more layers of the skin for rejuvenation. Microneedling is for anyone looking to target deeper lines and wrinkles, or who wants quicker, more dramatic results from their treatments.
