Short answer

A new HydraFacial uses controlled cleansing, exfoliation, suction, and topical infusion, with suitability depending on your skin and current condition.

This answers one question. It is not a diagnosis and does not replace an assessment by a licensed doctor.

What the treatment involves

The treatment uses a handpiece connected to a hydradermabrasion device. Its passes can loosen surface debris, remove material with gentle suction, and apply selected topical solutions. The exact sequence and products should be adjusted for sensitivity, active irritation, acne flares, open skin, or a history of reactions. It is a cosmetic skin-refreshing procedure, not a replacement for treatment of a diagnosed skin disease.

How to prepare

Tell the provider about eczema, rosacea, cold sores, recent peels, waxing, injectables, prescription creams, and allergies. Arrive with clean skin if instructed, avoid adding new irritating products beforehand, and follow the provider's advice about sun exposure. Afterward, use the recommended gentle cleanser and moisturiser, avoid picking or scrubbing, and protect treated skin from strong sunlight.

When to seek care

Ask for medical advice if burning, swelling, blistering, hives, worsening redness, or pain persists or increases after treatment. Seek urgent help for facial swelling with breathing difficulty. Report eye exposure or visual symptoms immediately rather than trying additional products at home.

Questions for your doctor

Ask which device settings and solutions are planned, whether your current skin condition makes treatment unsuitable, and what aftercare is required. Confirm who will perform the procedure and which symptoms should trigger a review.
