A Hydrafacial cleanses, exfoliates, extracts and hydrates your skin in one relaxing treatment, with results you can see as soon as you leave. At Cosmetica Med Spa in Boca Raton, it's one of our most popular treatments before events, photos and vacations.
What a Hydrafacial helps with
- Dull, dehydrated skin
- Clogged pores and blackheads
- Uneven texture
- Fine lines
- Oily or congested skin
How it works
The Hydrafacial system uses a patented tip and gentle suction to cleanse and exfoliate, loosen and remove debris from pores, and then infuse the skin with hydrating serums. It's more thorough than a traditional facial without any harshness.
What to expect at your appointment
Your esthetician will assess your skin, then take you through cleansing, exfoliation, extraction and hydration. Treatments take about 30 to 60 minutes depending on the add-ons you choose, like LED light therapy to calm the skin at the end.

Results
Skin looks brighter, smoother and more hydrated immediately, and results build with regular treatments. Individual results vary.

Who a Hydrafacial is for
Hydrafacial suits most skin types, including oily, dry, combination and mature skin. It's a popular pick a few days before a wedding, event or photos, because there's no peeling or downtime. We may postpone treatment if you have a sunburn, an active rash or cold sore, or open skin in the treatment area. Tell us if you use prescription retinoids so we can adjust the exfoliation step.
Aftercare
- Skip makeup for the rest of the day if you can.
- Hold off on retinoids, acids and scrubs for about 48 hours.
- Wear sunscreen daily and drink plenty of water.
- Book your next visit in about four weeks to keep results going.

Frequently asked questions
How often should I get a Hydrafacial?
Many people book one every four weeks, which matches the skin's natural renewal cycle. Even a single treatment before an event gives an instant glow.
Is a Hydrafacial good for sensitive skin?
Hydrafacial is gentle and suits most skin types. Let us know about any sensitivity or active skin conditions so we can adjust your treatment.
Can I wear makeup after?
It's best to let your skin breathe for the rest of the day, but you can go straight back to work or errands.
Does it hurt?
No. Most people find it relaxing. You'll feel cool suction and a light tingle during the peel step.
