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, a Hydrafacial is $199, and 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.

The three steps of a Hydrafacial
- Cleanse and peel. A gentle exfoliating tip lifts away dead skin while a mild acid solution loosens debris, with none of the harshness of a traditional peel.
- Extract and hydrate. Painless suction clears pores of oil and buildup while hydrating serums are delivered at the same time.
- Fuse and protect. Antioxidant and peptide serums are infused into the skin to plump, smooth and protect it.

Before your appointment
- Skip retinoids, exfoliating acids and scrubs for 2 to 3 days beforehand.
- Avoid waxing your face for about a week.
- Let us know if you have a sunburn, cold sore or active rash. We may reschedule so your skin can settle.
- Come as you are. Makeup comes off at the start of your treatment.
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.
Boosters and add-ons
Your esthetician can tailor each Hydrafacial with add-ons that target specific concerns. Popular options include targeted serums for fine lines or uneven tone, LED light therapy to calm the skin at the end, and dermaplaning beforehand for extra smoothness. We'll recommend what fits your skin, and add-ons are priced separately.
Results
Skin looks brighter, smoother and more hydrated immediately, and results build with regular treatments. Individual results vary.
Why regular treatments work better
A single Hydrafacial gives an instant glow that lasts about a week. Monthly treatments keep pores clearer and skin more hydrated, and improvements in texture and tone build over time. Many clients pair Hydrafacials with a simple home routine from our skincare guide.
Looking for deeper resurfacing? Compare microneedling and chemical peels.
Is a Hydrafacial worth it?
It's worth it for what it's designed to do: an instant glow with no downtime, clearer pores and better hydration, and steady improvement with monthly visits. It isn't designed to fix acne scars, deep wrinkles or sun spots. For those, microneedling or an IPL photofacial will do more, and many clients use a Hydrafacial between those treatments to keep skin looking its best.
Hydrafacial vs. a traditional facial
| Hydrafacial | Traditional facial | |
|---|---|---|
| Extractions | Painless suction, no squeezing | Usually manual |
| Downtime | None | Sometimes redness after extractions |
| Consistency | Same device-guided steps every visit | Varies by esthetician and technique |
| Best for | Instant glow, clogged pores, dehydration | Relaxation and customized massage |

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.
Timing a Hydrafacial before an event
For the best glow, book your Hydrafacial two to three days before a wedding, photo shoot or big night. That gives any slight pinkness time to settle while your skin is at its most hydrated. If you're also planning injectables, have your Hydrafacial a few days before Botox or filler, or wait about two weeks after filler.
Aftercare
- Makeup is fine right after your Hydrafacial.
- Stop Retin-A and hold off on retinoids, acids and scrubs for 2 days, then return to your normal skincare. If your skin still feels irritated, test products first.
- Avoid unprotected sun and tanning beds for 2 days, and wear SPF 30 or higher every day.
- Book your next visit in about four weeks to keep results going.

How much is a Hydrafacial in Boca Raton and Florida?
Prices across Florida vary by provider and add-ons. At Cosmetica Med Spa, a Hydrafacial starts at $199. Boosters and add-ons like LED light therapy add to the price. See our Hydrafacial cost guide for details.
Is a Hydrafacial really worth it?
It is if you want an instant glow with no downtime, or regular maintenance for clogged pores and dehydrated skin. It isn't designed to fix acne scars, deep wrinkles or sun spots; microneedling and IPL are better for those.
Will a Hydrafacial remove milia?
Usually not. Milia are small cysts trapped under the skin's surface, and suction alone rarely clears them. Your provider can assess them and recommend extractions or another option.
How long does a Hydrafacial take?
About 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment and any add-ons. There's no downtime, so you can go straight back to your day.
How long do Hydrafacial results last?
Skin looks brighter and more hydrated right away, and the glow typically lasts about a week. Monthly treatments build longer-lasting improvements in texture, pores and tone.
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.
How much is a Hydrafacial with dermaplaning?
A Hydrafacial is $199 and dermaplaning is $100, so together they're $299. Dermaplaning first removes fine hair and dead skin, which helps the Hydrafacial serums work on a smoother surface.
Can I get a Hydrafacial if I have acne?
Yes. For congested or acne-prone skin, a Hydrafacial helps clear pores. If you have painful, inflamed breakouts or a skin infection, we may adjust or postpone treatment. For ongoing acne, ask about our medical facials and chemical peels.
Can I wear makeup after?
Yes. Makeup is fine right after a Hydrafacial, so you can go straight back to work, errands or an event.
Does it hurt?
No. Most people find it relaxing. You'll feel cool suction and a light tingle during the peel step.
