Seven steps, one handpiece.
A Hydrafacial uses a spiral suction tip to lift debris out of the pores while pushing serum in. Which steps you get depends on the level you book.
- Lymphatic drainageLight suction moves fluid, eases puffiness and preps the skin. Platinum level.
- HydradermabrasionA wet exfoliating tip cleanses and lifts dead skin cells.
- Gentle peelA mild glycolic and salicylic solution loosens congestion with no downtime.
- ExtractionVortex suction clears pores without squeezing.
- BoosterA concentrated serum chosen for your concern. Deluxe and Platinum.
- LED light therapyRed light for collagen support, blue light for blemish-prone skin.
- Hydration infusionAntioxidants, peptides and hyaluronic acid for the finish.
The device behind it
The current Hydrafacial machine is called Syndeo. It runs all seven steps from one unit using Vortex-Fusion technology: a disposable spiral tip that lifts debris out by suction while serum flows in. The practitioner can adjust how strongly the tip exfoliates, follows guided steps on screen and can call up your previous treatments to personalise the next one.
Why the order matters
Each step prepares the skin for the next. Drainage reduces fluid, exfoliation and the peel clear the surface, extraction empties the pores, and only then do the booster and hydrating serums go in, when the skin can absorb them best. LED light finishes the session while everything settles.
