Deep pore cleansing
HydraFacial® works right from the first step, purifying the skin with gentle, gradual suction. This process frees pores blocked by sebum, pollution or make-up residue. By eliminating these impurities at source, we effectively limit the appearance of blackheads, inflammatory pimples and blackheads. The result: clearer, more oxygenated and visibly healthier skin.
Targeted removal of impurities
The extraction phase of the HydraFacial® treatment is designed to thoroughly remove impurities lodged in the superficial layers of the epidermis. This non-invasive mechanical treatment significantly reduces textural irregularities, blackheads and micro-cysts. At the same time, it reduces local inflammation, often the cause of redness or pain, making skin texture more even.
Soothing skin
After cleansing and extraction, the skin is immediately soothed by the application of serums enriched with anti-inflammatory, moisturizing and repairing active ingredients. These ingredients – often based on antioxidants, hyaluronic acid or botanical extracts – calm irritation, promote rapid healing and strengthen the skin barrier. This moment of regeneration is essential for revitalizing the skin without damaging it.
HydraFacial® and acne
Pimple reduction
HydraFacial® skincare is particularly useful for skin prone to mild to moderate acne. By regularly cleansing pores and rebalancing skin flora, it helps prevent inflammatory flare-ups. Successive treatments progressively improve the appearance of the skin, reducing the number and frequency of breakouts.
Scar reduction
The micro-reliefs left by old acne lesions can be faded thanks to the stimulation of cell renewal induced by the HydraFacial® treatment. By promoting gentle but continuous exfoliation, this treatment refines skin texture and visibly improves recent or shallow marks. It can also reinforce the efficacy of other healing treatments applied as a complement.
Sebum regulation
Contrary to popular belief, oily skin often needs moisturizing. HydraFacial® provides balanced hydration to help naturally regulate sebum production. This rebalancing is essential to limit the “shine” effect and prevent clogged pores, often the cause of imperfections.
How often should I use a HydraFacial® on blemished skin?
Professional recommendations
For visible, long-lasting results, a session every 3 to 4 weeks is generally recommended. This frequency allows the skin to regenerate between treatments, while maintaining an optimal level of cleanliness and hydration. However, it can be adapted to the specific needs of each skin type.
Personalized follow-up
A preliminary skin diagnosis with a professional enables us to target the right active ingredients and build an evolving treatment protocol. Certain skin types may respond better to certain serum formulas, or require different spacing between sessions. This individualized follow-up is a real asset in maximizing the effectiveness of the treatment.
Risks and precautions
Prior consultation
Before starting a HydraFacial® protocol, a consultation with one of our skin care professionals is essential. This diagnosis ensures that there are no contraindications, such as severe rosacea, a flare-up of eczema or an unstabilized skin condition. An accurate assessment guarantees safe skin care.
Possible allergies
Some people may be sensitive to ingredients in serums. It is therefore essential to report any known allergy or previous reaction. The practitioner can then adapt the products used to avoid any risk of irritation or skin reaction.
Post-treatment care
After a session, the skin is more receptive and sensitive. We recommend avoiding direct exposure to the sun, avoiding exfoliating products in the days that follow, and maintaining a good level of hydration. These simple gestures promote rapid recovery and optimize the benefits of the treatment.
Testimonials and feedback
Many people who have tried HydraFacial® treatment report a clear improvement in their skin from the very first sessions. A visible reduction in pimples, a clearer, more even complexion and a feeling of “clean”, refreshed skin are the most frequently reported benefits. Many users also report an increase in confidence thanks to smoother, more radiant skin.
Comparison with other acne treatments
Advantages and disadvantages
Unlike more aggressive treatments such as chemical peels or oral medications, HydraFacial® is a gentle, gradual solution. It doesn’t require social eviction, has no major side effects, and can be integrated into a regular routine. However, in the case of severe acne, it is complementary to dermatological medical care.
Long-term effectiveness
The effects of the HydraFacial® treatment are long-lasting, provided they are maintained. For skin with moderate imperfections, the treatment helps stabilize skin condition and reduce the frequency of inflammation. To be fully effective, however, it must be integrated into a comprehensive treatment program that includes a healthy lifestyle, a suitable routine and a balanced diet.
Tips for maintaining results
An adapted routine
The results obtained with HydraFacial® can be prolonged with an adapted daily routine: gentle cleansing, targeted moisturizing and non-comedogenic products. These simple gestures help maintain skin balance and prevent new imperfections.
Sun protection
After a treatment, the skin may be more sensitive to external aggressors, particularly UV rays. Daily application of a sunscreen adapted to skin type is strongly recommended to protect treated areas and avoid hyperpigmentation.
A balanced diet
Beautiful skin also means good eating habits. Reducing your intake of fast sugars and ultra-processed foods, and ensuring you’re well hydrated, helps limit the factors that aggravate acne. A diet rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids is a real plus.
Is HydraFacial® suitable for all types of blemished skin?
Care limits
HydraFacial® is particularly recommended for skin with mild to moderate imperfections. However, it is not a sufficient solution for severe acne, inflammatory rosacea or advanced skin diseases. In these situations, a dermatological consultation is necessary to set up a suitable medical treatment.
