What is HydraFacial?

Looking for glowing, hydrated skin that’s visibly smoother from the first treatment? HydraFacial is one of the most advanced and results-driven facials available today. Safe for all skin types, it combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and infusion—all in one non-invasive treatment. At Feeling Smooth, we love it for its instant glow and long-term benefits.

 

What is a HydraFacial?

HydraFacial is a medical-grade treatment that deeply cleanses, exfoliates, extracts impurities, and delivers hydration into the skin. It’s performed using a device with patented Vortex-Fusion technology, which drives active ingredients deep into your skin for visible, long-lasting results.


1. How Does a HydraFacial Work?

The treatment uses a handheld wand to perform a multi-step process:

  • Deep cleansing
  • Gentle acid peel
  • Painless extractions
  • Targeted serum infusions

This process leaves the skin looking radiant and feeling deeply refreshed.

2. Who Can Benefit from HydraFacial?

HydraFacial is suitable for all skin types and concerns, including:

  • Dehydrated skin
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Acne and congestion
  • Dull or uneven skin tone
  • Pigmentation

It’s only contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding. We also offer eye and lip Perk add-ons for extra plumping and hydration.

 

The Benefits of HydraFacial

1. Instant Glowing Skin

HydraFacial delivers a visible glow from your very first treatment. The combination of deep exfoliation and hydration leaves your skin radiant, smooth and even-toned—ideal before events or just when you need a pick-me-up.

2. No Downtime or Recovery

There’s no recovery needed after a HydraFacial. You can return to your day immediately with glowing skin, making it the perfect option for busy schedules.

3. Long-Lasting Hydration

Thanks to the Vortex technology, HydraFacial delivers hydration deep into the skin. One treatment can leave your skin plump, smooth and hydrated for up to a week, with longer-lasting benefits when boosters are used.

 

HydraFacial Results: What to Expect

1. Immediate Results

You’ll notice glowing, refreshed skin right after your appointment. Expect:

  • Smoother texture
  • Brighter complexion
  • Even skin tone
  • Hydration you can feel

2. Long-Term Results

For more targeted concerns like acne, pigmentation or texture, we recommend a series of 3 or more treatments. Your skin therapist will customise each session with booster serums, tips, and LED therapy to address your unique goals.

 

Are HydraFacials Worth It?

1. The Cost of HydraFacial

At Feeling Smooth, our HydraFacials range from $229 to $349:

  • Signature: Cleanse, exfoliate, peel, extract, hydrate
  • Deluxe: Signature + booster serum + LED light therapy
  • Platinum: Deluxe + lymphatic therapy

We also offer packages and memberships to save on regular treatments.

 

2. Value for Money

HydraFacial offers real skin transformation without downtime. Compared to other treatments, it’s a versatile, cost-effective option that targets multiple concerns in a single session. Plus, results are immediate—and that glow is addictive!

 

HydraFacial Side Effects: What You Need to Know

Most clients experience no side effects. You might notice a slight flush or redness across your cheeks post-treatment, which is completely normal and usually fades within 10–30 minutes. It’s simply a sign that active ingredients are getting to work. Read more on potential side effects.

 

HydraFacial Before and After: Real Results
