Get answers to common questions about Platinum Hydrafacial.

During your appointment we begin with gentle lymphatic drainage, followed by the Hydrafacial steps: cleanse, exfoliate, extract and hydrate. LED therapy and your chosen booster complete the treatment. Typical duration is 60 to 75 minutes with minimal redness and immediate glow.

Yes. The Platinum Hydrafacial is customizable—boosters and intensity are adjusted for sensitivity. Our clinicians assess your skin first and may perform a patch test. Lymphatic drainage and gentle extraction reduce irritation, making it suitable for many reactive or acne-prone skin types.

You’ll notice an immediate glow and smoother texture right after treatment. Results often peak within three to seven days as skin continues to hydrate and heal. Effects can last weeks; a series and monthly maintenance treatments extend benefits for sustained rejuvenation.

Downtime is minimal. Most clients experience light redness or sensitivity for a few hours to a day. Avoid exfoliants, retinoids, and prolonged sun exposure for 48–72 hours. Our technicians provide tailored aftercare to maximize results and reduce any temporary irritation.

Choose based on your primary concern: peptides or growth factors for anti-aging, vitamin C or brightening serums for hyperpigmentation, salicylic acid or clarifying boosters for congestion and acne, and calming blends for redness. Your clinician will recommend the optimal booster during consultation.

Discontinue retinoids and harsh exfoliants for 3–5 days and avoid waxing or intense sun exposure beforehand. Arrive with a clean, makeup-free face and disclose medications or recent treatments. Follow pre-care guidance to minimize sensitivity and optimize treatment effectiveness.
