WALNUT CREEKOnly a HydraFacial® can leave skin luminous, clear, and hydrated while still letting you get ready and go out for that important event the next day. Using a series of gentle but effective steps that work to exfoliate, clear, and hydrate your skin, HydraFacial® makes a great way to prepare for a big day coming up.
How Does a HydraFacial® Work?
A HydraFacial® treatment goes through a series of steps, each one preparing the skin to benefit from the next one.
Cleansing and Exfoliation
In the first step, one of our clinical aestheticians will cleanse your skin and then use a handheld device with an exfoliating tip. This resurfaces the skin and helps shed dull lifeless skin cells.
Chemical Peel
A chemical peel boosts the results of your HydraFacial® and leaves skin bright and clear, with healthy, vibrant skin cells coming to the surface.
Extraction
With lifeless skin and debris removed, an aesthetician then uses a medical-grade vacuum over the skin to extract dirt, oil, and bacteria from the pores.
Serums
With bright new skin now ready to face the world and pores ready to receive treatments, special HydraFacial® serums are applied to the skin. These serums keep your skin powerfully hydrated and glowing. Like the other steps of a HydraFacial® treatment, serums are customized to your skin needs.

What are the Benefits of a HydraFacial®?
One significant benefit of HydraFacial® is that it can make your skin glowing and youthful. Used every four weeks, it will help your skin keep this smooth, hydrated appearance all year round. HydraFacial® also helps control acne by keeping pores clear and removing dead skin cells that help cause blackheads. The HydraFacial® serums can target acne-prone skin to give it a dose of intense hydration that won’t cause a breakout.
Is There Any Downtime With a HydraFacial®?
There is no downtime with a HydraFacial®. You may want to schedule your treatment a day or two before your event, so your skin has time to benefit from the intensive serum. Your skin will look radiant and healthy right after treatment, and you can go back to your regular activities. We recommend always wearing sunscreen between treatments to protect your results.
Am I a Good Candidate for a HydraFacial®?
Almost anyone can have a HydraFacial® treatment. HydraFacial® can be customized for even very sensitive skin. It works for almost every skin type, including dry, oily, aging, and acne-prone.
“My experience at the clinic was actually fantastic. The technician, Ashley, was super friendly and talked me through the entire laser procedure, letting my know step by step what she was doing, what was happening, and what effect it was going to have on my skin. As soon as I had a question about what was going on, she’d obviously fielded similar thoughts from previous patients before, because she would inform me before I would even ask the question. I was in and out in no time at all, but not all rushed. It was easy, convenient and just all-round a really great experience. It’s nice to be taken care of by professionals who just handle everything in their stride. Highly recommend :)” *
