What is the HydraFacial treatment?

A HydraFacial is an advanced, medical-grade skin resurfacing treatment that uses unique Vortex-Fusion technology to cleanse deeply, exfoliate, remove impurities, and infuse the skin with intense hydration. Because it’s fully customisable, this treatment is suitable for every skin type — from sensitive and dry to oily and combination.

Unlike traditional facials which may involve manual extractions and physical exfoliation, HydraFacial uses a gentle suction process and blend of hydrating serums to nourish and refine the skin texture leaving it plump, hydrated and rejuvenated.

Benefits

HydraFacial has many skin benefits making it a treatment of choice for those looking for a non-invasive solution to multiple skin concerns. Some of the benefits include:

Deep Cleansing & Exfoliation: Removes dead skin cells, dirt and oil, unclogs pores and refines pore size.
Hydration & Nourishment: Hyaluronic acid, peptides and antioxidant rich serum infused into the skin for intense hydration for a youthful appearance.
Reduces Fine Lines & Wrinkles: Promotes collagen production and deeply hydrates the skin to minimize fine lines and wrinkles.
Brightening Effect: Gentle peel with glycolic acid and brightening agents to even out skin tone, brighten dull skin and reduce dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
Minimizes Enlarged Pores & Controls Oil Production: Vacuum-assisted exfoliation clears out clogged pores and excess oil, and refines skin texture and pore size.
Gentle & Suitable for All Skin Types: Unlike other aggressive treatments like laser and microdermabrasion HydraFacial is a safe technology so suitable for sensitive skin.

Who Is It for?

HydraFacial is for anyone who wants to improve their skin texture, tone and overall health. It’s especially good for those who have:

Dry, dehydrated skin that needs deep exfoliation and intense hydration.
Oily and acne-prone skin with clogged pores, breakouts and excess oil production.
Mature skin looking for anti-aging benefits and collagen stimulation.
Hyperpigmentation and sun damage from environmental stressors.
Dull skin and uneven skin tone for a radiant complexion boost.
Sensitive skin as it is a gentle alternative to harsher treatments.

Contraindications

HydraFacial is safe for most people but not for:

Active skin infections or rashes like cold sores, eczema or rosacea flare-ups.
Severe acne with open wounds that need to be treated differently.
For pregnant women some ingredients may not be suitable.
Shellfish allergy as some serums contain marine based ingredients.
Aggressive skincare treatments like chemical peels or laser treatments.

How Does It Work?

The HydraFacial process is done in 3 steps:

Cleansing & Exfoliation: The skin is cleansed and a gentle peel with glycolic and salicylic acids removes dead cells and excess oil.
Extraction & Hydration: HydraFacial’s patented technology extracts debris from pores while infusing hydrating serums.
Protection & Rejuvenation: Antioxidants, peptides and hyaluronic acid is delivered to the skin to lock in moisture, stimulate cell renewal and long-term skin health.

Procedure

A typical HydraFacial treatment takes 30–60 minutes depending on the concerns being addressed. Here’s a breakdown:

1. Double Cleanse and Exfoliation

The treatment starts with a deep cleanse to remove dirt, makeup and excess oil. Then the skin is gently exfoliated with a mild peel to remove dead skin cells and prepare the skin for the next steps. This exfoliation process allows the active ingredients to be absorbed better and prepares the skin for further treatment.

2. Mild Chemical Peel

A gentle peel with glycolic, lactic or salicylic acids is applied to the skin. This loosens dirt, dead cells and impurities in the pores making it easier to extract in the next step. The chemical peel also brightens the skin by removing surface-level pigmentation, leaving the skin looking refreshed.

3. Painless Suction Extraction

Using HydraFacial’s patented vortex suction technology, debris like blackheads, whiteheads and excess oil is extracted from the skin’s surface. It’s painless unlike manual extraction methods making it suitable for sensitive skin. It cleans out the pores without causing inflammation or redness.

4. Hydration and Infusion

After extraction, a customized blend of hydrating serums is infused into the skin. These serums contain peptides, antioxidants and mineral-rich ingredients that nourish and hydrate the skin. The HydraFacial uses technology to ensure these ingredients penetrate deep into the skin making it look plump and hydrated. For extra hydration, the Hydraglucan Intense Hydration Booster is applied for an extra boost.

5. LED Light

To heal and stimulate collagen, LED light therapy is used in the treatment. Blue light targets acne-causing bacteria, and red light stimulates collagen and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. This step takes the HydraFacial to the next level and leaves skin glowing.

6. Protection

The treatment finishes with an application of protective skincare products such as antioxidants and SPF to protect the skin from UV and environmental pollution. This last step means the skin is hydrated, protected and radiant after the treatment.

Preparation

To get the best results follow these pre-care tips before your HydraFacial:

No direct sun exposure for at least 72 hours before the treatment.
Stop active skincare products such as retinol, exfoliants and acids 48 hours before.
No facial waxing, laser treatment and aggressive treatments for at least a week before.
Drink plenty of water for optimal skin health.

Aftercare

No direct sun exposure and apply broad-spectrum SPF.
No makeup for at least 24 hours to allow the serums to fully absorb.
No retinol, exfoliants and active skincare products for 48 hours.
Keep your skin hydrated with serums and water.
Book in for regular facials every 4–6 weeks for healthy skin.
