What Is a HydraFacial?

A HydraFacial is a multi-step hydradermabrasion facial that combines several professional treatments into one session. Ours goes beyond the basics: it deep-cleanses and exfoliates, resurfaces the skin with microdermabrasion, clears clogged pores with gentle suction, adds microcurrent toning at the Sculpt level and oxygenation, light therapy and collagen-supporting radiofrequency at the Ultimate level, and infuses hydrating, antioxidant serums deep into the skin. The result is a clearer, smoother and visibly glowing complexion — typically with little to no downtime. It suits most skin types and is fully customized to your concerns, which is why it’s a favorite both before events and as a monthly skin-health ritual.

Key Takeaways

  • One session covers it all — cleanse, resurface, gentle suction extraction and deep hydration.
  • Typically little to no downtime, and fully customizable to your skin.
  • Three levels: Signature is the complete facial, Sculpt adds microcurrent toning, Ultimate adds oxygenation, light therapy and radiofrequency.

What Brings Clients In

Dull skin, stubborn congestion, and wanting more than a basic facial — these are the three things we hear most before clients book our HydraFacial.

  1. 01

    Dull, Tired Skin

    Your complexion looks flat and lackluster, and you want a refreshed glow — fast.

    Immediate radiance in one session
  2. 02

    Congested Pores

    Blackheads and congestion keep coming back, and you would rather skip the manual squeezing.

    Gentle suction extraction
  3. 03

    A Basic Facial Isn’t Enough

    You want more than a quick glow — smoother texture and firmer-looking skin, with your day left intact.

    Resurfacing every visit, firming from Sculpt upward
The Steps

Many Steps, One Session

A complete, customizable facial — cleanse, resurface, extract and hydrate — typically with little to no downtime.

  1. 01

    Cleanse & Exfoliate

    Vacuum-assisted deep cleansing and gentle exfoliation lift away dead skin and refine the look of pores.

  2. 02

    Resurface & Renew

    Microdermabrasion-style resurfacing smooths and renews the surface for a fresh, even texture.

  3. 03

    Gentle Suction Extraction

    Gentle suction clears congestion from pores comfortably — no manual squeezing.

  4. 04

    Firm & Tone — Sculpt & Ultimate

    Microcurrent toning at the Sculpt level, and collagen-supporting radiofrequency with oxygenation and light therapy at the Ultimate level, to support firmer-looking skin over a series.

  5. 05

    Infuse & Hydrate

    Hydrating, antioxidant serums are driven deep into the skin for a lasting, luminous glow.

What sets our HydraFacial apart is doing it all in one go — resurfacing and gentle suction extraction plus deep serum infusion — and, from the Sculpt level upward, firming energy — so your skin is cleansed, treated and nourished in a single session, typically with little to no downtime.

Inside the Session

Your Session, Step by Step

It opens with a vacuum-assisted deep cleanse and a gentle exfoliation. A microdermabrasion-style pass then resurfaces the skin, and gentle suction lifts congestion out of the pores — no manual squeezing. At the Sculpt and Ultimate levels, firming energy follows — microcurrent toning, and at Ultimate also collagen-supporting radiofrequency: that is the part working on firmer-looking skin, and it builds over a series rather than in a single visit. The session closes with hydrating, antioxidant serums driven deep into the skin.

It feels cool at the start, then a light tug of suction, then a comfortable warmth toward the end — nothing sharp. You leave hydrated, glowing and makeup-ready, usually with nothing more than brief pinkness. Individual results vary.

  • Cleanse → resurface → gentle suction → serum infusion, plus firming energy at Sculpt and Ultimate
  • Cool at first, light suction, gentle warmth at the end
  • Hydrated, glowing and makeup-ready when you walk out

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about HydraFacial at DK Aesthetics.

In one session it deep-cleanses and exfoliates, resurfaces the skin, clears congestion with gentle suction and infuses hydrating antioxidant serums; the Sculpt level adds microcurrent toning, and the Ultimate level adds skin oxygenation, light therapy and collagen-supporting radiofrequency. The result is clearer, smoother and glowing skin, typically with little to no downtime. It suits most skin types — including sensitive and breakout-prone skin — because every step is dialed to what your skin can take that day.
For most guests, yes. A HydraFacial cleanses, exfoliates and hydrates in one step, so you leave with visibly smoother, brighter skin and typically little to no downtime. It’s a gentle maintenance facial rather than a dramatic fix — results build with a regular series every four to six weeks. If your main concern is deep texture or scarring, we’ll point you toward microneedling instead. Individual results vary.
A basic facial mostly cleanses and hydrates. Ours adds microdermabrasion resurfacing, gentle suction extraction and deep serum infusion — plus firming energy at the Sculpt and Ultimate levels — so you get more than a surface glow in the same relaxed visit, typically with little to no downtime.
Typically little to none. Your skin looks immediately brighter and more hydrated, and there’s no peeling, so you can apply makeup and return to your day right away. Brief, mild warmth or pinkness is normal and settles quickly.
It can help with mild congestion, blackheads and oiliness — the deep cleanse, gentle exfoliation and gentle suction extraction clear out pore-clogging oil and dead skin, and we can tailor the serums for breakout-prone skin. It complements a dedicated acne plan beautifully. For persistent or cystic acne we'll pair it with, or point you toward, our IPL acne clearance.
They solve different problems. A HydraFacial is a glow with typically little to no downtime — great for dullness, congestion and event-ready skin, repeated regularly. Microneedling works deeper to rebuild collagen over a series, targeting texture, enlarged pores and acne scars, with a little social downtime. Many guests use HydraFacials for upkeep and microneedling for longer-term remodeling. We’ll help you choose at your consultation. Individual results vary.
Many people enjoy a single treatment before an event for an instant glow. For ongoing skin health — and for firmness and texture goals — a monthly series gives the best, lasting results.
It's one of our most popular pre-event treatments because you walk out glowing, with no peeling and typically little to no downtime. We usually suggest booking it a few days ahead — roughly 3 to 7 days before — so any brief pinkness has settled and your skin is at its freshest on the day, rather than the morning of. If it's a milestone event, a session or two in the weeks leading up to it helps your skin look its very best.
The cleansing, exfoliation and hydration steps are gentle and non-heat-based, but skin can be more reactive during pregnancy and not every serum ingredient is well studied for it — so guidance generally leans cautious. Please check with your OB or provider first, and let us know you're pregnant or breastfeeding when you book. If you've been cleared, we'll customize your session, skipping ingredients like retinoids and certain acids and keeping everything gentle.
Signature is $250 (45 minutes), Sculpt is $300 (50 minutes) and Ultimate is $420 (60 minutes) at DK Aesthetics in Highland Park. Enhancements — dermaplaning, extended red LED light therapy or décolleté — are $50 to $75 each. Packages of 4, 6 or 12 sessions lower the per-session price by 10 to 20 percent.
