HydraFacial
Why get “just” a facial when you could pamper yourself with a HydraFacial? It’s one of the most requested treatments at Palo Alto Laser and Skin Care for those who want to treat their skin right and indulge in a delicious pampering session. The HydraFacial is a no-downtime gentle resurfacing treatment that comprehensively cares for your skin by combining cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, and hydration. It’s so much more than a facial—just like we are so much more than a MedSpa.
Why Patients Love HydraFacials
HydraFacial Benefits
During a HydraFacial, your specific needs and issues are identified and addressed. This customized approach is why the HydraFacial is more sought after than any other type of facial, but you won’t find it everywhere. Specific formulas and boosters are designed to achieve a number of benefits, such as:
- Evening skin tone
- Revealing a brighter skin tone
- Removing impurities
- Decreasing pore size
- Firming skin
There is no downtime with a HydraFacial so you can immediately show off your clearer, brighter, glowing skin. The Vortex-Fusion of peptides, antioxidants, and hyaluronic acid (HA) makes it possible for this non-invasive treatment to be a real game-changer with results you’ll see right away.
How HydraFacial Works
This treatment includes a medical-grade hydradermabrasion that calls for a three-part approach including cleansing, exfoliating/extracting, and finally infusing the skin with personalized serums to treat your specific needs. Hydradermabrasion is different than dermabrasion because it’s gentler and vacuums out the pores while applying serums immediately afterward so you can get the best results. The HydraFacial technology includes a spiral treatment tip with vortex tech, a swirling force that vacuums and applies at once.
Anyone of any age or complexion can benefit from a HydraFacial. For teenagers, it’s a fantastic tool to help with acne. Adults enjoy the acne benefits as well, along with the diminishment of lines, hyperpigmentation, and superb hydration. The treatment lasts on average 30 minutes, is easy, and boasts no recovery period, meaning you don’t have to plan special events around your HydraFacial.
One of the biggest benefits of a HydraFacial is that it is endlessly customizable. You can add boosters to your treatment to really turn a focused lens on your unique priorities. For example, some clients need a vitamin C brightener. Others might pair a HydraFacial with a chemical peel, and although these are two very different treatments, they work very well together.
Even the HydraFacial tool itself is fully customizable, with experts able to manipulate the suction power to be gentler on delicate areas like below the eyes and tougher on other areas such as the nose. Vacuuming the lips during a HydraFacial is an excellent way to plump them and avoid flaking without using a syringe.

Yes! Every 15 seconds someone in the world is getting a HydraFacial. That equates to over 2 million treatments per year, which is more than Botox!

No, although extractions should only ever be handled by a professional. But HydraFacial is even gentler than the more traditional ways of performing extractions (which required pressure with a metal tool). The vacuum feature allows for gentle, no-risk extractions.
