Who is Hydrafacial™ best for?
Hydrafacial™ is safe for all skin types and tones, and works best to help with hydration, rejuvenation, tone, texture, detoxification, sensitivity, and congestion.
-
Can I receive this treatment if I have allergies?
While most allergens will not interfere with Hydrafacial™, if you are allergic to shellfish, we advise that you do not receive this treatment. There are active ingredients involved in the facial that are known to set off an allergic reaction for those who have a shellfish intolerance. If you're curious, schedule a consultation with one of our providers to chat about a very pared down version of the treatment which can work for you and your needs.
-
When will I see results?
Your skin will feel hydrated and look cleaner, brighter, and healthier after your treatment. For concerns such as hyperpigmentation, congested skin or acne, your provider will recommend a treatment series based on your goals. Results vary.
-
How often should I get a Hydrafacial™?
We recommend receiving this treatment once a month to maintain overall skin health.
-
How does a Hydrafacial™ compare to my regular facial?
Hydrafacial™ combines cleansing, exfoliation, vacuum extraction and hydration in one treatment, using vortex technology. Your provider can explain how it compares to the facials you've had before and whether it suits your goals.
-
What does it feel like?
The Hydrafacial™ is quite a soothing treatment and is completely painless. You can expect a relaxing, enjoyable experience.
-
What is lymphatic therapy?
Lymphatic therapy is a gentle, rhythmic facial massage technique included in your Hydrafacial™ Detox. Your provider can tell you more about how it fits into your treatment.
-
What do you mean by “exfoliating active ingredients?”
These are the ingredients in your skincare products that cause physical or chemical exfoliation, such as acids, non-prescription retinols, benzoyl peroxide, and scrubs.
-
How does Hydrafacial™ work for acne and acne-prone skin?
Hydrafacial™ is a great option for those experiencing mild to moderate acne (including hormonal acne) and congested skin; specifically, whiteheads, blackheads, and clogged pores. While the hydration and acne-fighting ingredients featured in Hydrafacial™ are excellent for your skin, this treatment alone will not be able to treat the underlying cause of severe acne.
-
Can I get this treatment if I currently take Accutane?
Please wait at least 6 months after you complete Accutane (or other Isotretinoin products) before receiving a Hydrafacial™.
-
Can my teenager get a Hydrafacial™?
Hydrafacial™ is an ideal option for anyone ages 16+. We cannot treat anyone under the age of 16, though, and require parental consent for those aged 16 and 17.
-
What other treatments can I pair with my Hydrafacial™?
Hydrafacial™ effectively preps the skin for more intensive facial treatments, like Clear + Brilliant® Laser Facial, VI Peel®, and Morpheus8 RF Microneedling. We recommend getting Hydrafacial™ 1–2 weeks prior to any of the aforementioned treatments. If you'd like to get another treatment on the same day as your Hydrafacial™, you can book Botox® & Wrinkle Relaxers and Dermal Filler, which you are able to receive immediately after your facial.
-
What add-ons are available?
To target your unique skincare concerns, you can add any of the following add-ons to your treatment: a medical-grade peel, lip perk, eye perk, or dermaplaning.
You can also add a booster to your treatment (focused on acne-prone skin, signs of aging or hydration), which your provider will help you choose. Please note, Hydrafacial™ Boost & Detox already include a booster as part of the treatment.
-
Can I work out immediately after?
Please refrain from strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours after your treatment.
-
Can I get a Hydrafacial and injectables on the same day?
Yes, you can get a Hydrafacial™ and injectables on the same day, but your Hydrafacial™ appointment must come before that of any injectable. If you’ve recently received an injectable, you’ll need to wait at least 2 weeks before receiving other facial treatments.
