How HydraFacial Works
Cleanse & Exfoliate
Dead skin cells and excess sebum are gently removed using a vortex-like suction tip, revealing fresh skin underneath.
Acid Peel (Gentle)
A gentle blend of glycolic and salicylic acids loosens dirt and debris from pores without irritation or discomfort.
Extraction
Automated painless suction extracts blackheads, whiteheads, and impurities from pores — far more comfortable than manual extractions.
Hydration & Infusion
Antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid are infused deep into the skin, leaving it plump, glowing, and hydrated.
Protection
LED light therapy or a customized booster serum may be applied. Sunscreen is applied to protect your refreshed skin.
