Process:
HydraFacial is a multi-step facial treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts impurities, and infuses skin with intense moisturizers and antioxidants. The device uses a patented vortex technology to simultaneously vacuum away dead skin cells and debris while delivering serums tailored to your skin’s needs. The session typically lasts 30-45 minutes and includes gentle exfoliation, painless suction, and serum infusion, culminating with LED light therapy to calm and promote healing.

Pre-Treatment Precautions:

• Avoid retinoids, chemical exfoliants, and waxing 48 hours prior.
• Do not undergo treatment if you have active cold sores or open wounds.
• Shave any facial hair the morning of the appointment.
• Inform your clinician of any recent skin treatments or allergies.

Post-Treatment Care:

• Expect a mild glow and redness which usually subsides within a few hours.
• Avoid sun exposure and apply broad-spectrum SPF 50 daily.
• Resume active skincare ingredients (like retinoids) after 48 hours.
• Makeup is allowed immediately but opt for mineral-based formulas for best results.

Pros:

• Instant radiant and hydrated skin with zero downtime.
• Suitable for all skin types including sensitive skin.
• Treats multiple concerns: congestion, fine lines, and dullness.

Cons:

• Requires monthly maintenance for best long-term results.
• Not suitable during active skin infections or severe acne flare-ups.
• Higher cost compared to basic facials.
