Hydra-Dermabrasion
A no-downtime treatment combining exfoliation, extraction and hydration in one session.
What is Hydra-Dermabrasion?
Hydra-dermabrasion combines gentle exfoliation, pore extraction and hydration in a single treatment, using a device that cleanses the skin while simultaneously infusing serums suited to your concerns. It is a gentler alternative to traditional microdermabrasion, with visible results and no downtime, making it well suited to regular treatment or as a stand-alone option before an event.
What's involved
What to expect
The device is passed over cleansed skin, combining exfoliation with a suction action to draw out congestion from pores, followed by infusion of hydrating or targeted serums. A session typically takes 30–45 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
Recovery
There is no downtime. Skin generally appears brighter and feels smoother immediately after treatment.
Potential benefits
This treatment may:
- May improve skin texture, hydration and overall clarity
- Can reduce congestion and refine the appearance of pores
- No downtime — suitable before an event or straight back to normal activities
- Well suited to most skin types
Outcomes vary between individuals and cannot be guaranteed.
Risks and complications
All treatments carry some risk, even non-surgical ones. Key risks include:
- Temporary redness or sensitivity immediately after treatment
- Reaction to infused serums — an uncommon risk, particularly in sensitive skin
- Temporary results — benefits are visible but not long-lasting without ongoing treatment, and this is often recommended as a regular maintenance option rather than a one-off fix
This is a summary, not a complete list. Let your clinician know about any known skin sensitivities before treatment, as this affects which serums are used. Please raise any concerns with our clinical team directly.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from a facial?
Hydra-dermabrasion uses a specific device combining suction-based exfoliation and serum infusion, generally giving a more immediate visible result than a traditional facial.
How often can I have this treatment?
It's gentle enough for regular treatment — many people have it monthly as part of an ongoing skin routine.
Is there any downtime?
No. Most people return to normal activities, including makeup application, immediately afterwards.
