How does it work?
Cleanse. Extract. Hydrate. This device uses Vortex-Fusion™ technology, which works like a vacuum to penetrate inner pores and increase the effectiveness of the treatment.
- Gentle Lymphatic Massage: The treatment starts with a gentle massage that targets the lymphatic system, which is responsible for removing waste and toxins from the body. This massage helps to stimulate lymph flow, promoting the removal of fluid and toxins from the skin, reducing swelling, puffiness, and inflammation.
- Cleansing and Exfoliation: The treatment begins with a deep cleansing and exfoliation of the skin to remove dead skin cells and impurities, leaving the skin smooth.
- Acid Peel (Optional): A gentle acid peel is applied (usually glycolic or salicylic acid) to help loosen dirt and debris from pores. It’s a mild peel, ensuring minimal irritation.
- Extraction: A vacuum-powered device is used to extract impurities like blackheads and clogged pores. This step helps clean the pores without squeezing or discomfort.
- Hydration and Nourishment: Antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid are infused into the skin to provide deep hydration, promote skin health, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Skin Rejuvenation: The treatment boosts collagen production and improves skin texture, tone, and elasticity.
- Instant Results: Immediate glow and improved skin texture after one session. Ideal for maintaining healthy skin and refreshing a dull complexion.
- HydraFacial for the scalp is a specialized treatment designed to cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate the scalp, similar to the facial HydraFacial treatment for the skin. This treatment can help with issues like dandruff, dryness, oil buildup, and overall scalp health. It may also promote hair growth by improving circulation and providing a healthier environment for hair follicles.

Longevity?
The results from a HydraFacial treatment typically last about 5 to 7 days, with some benefits lasting up to 2 weeks. However, this can vary depending on individual skin types and concerns.
- Skin Type: People with oily or acne-prone skin may see faster oil buildup, causing results to fade sooner, while those with dry skin may experience longer-lasting hydration.
- Lifestyle: Exposure to sun, pollution, and your skincare routine can impact how long the results last.
- Frequency of Treatments: Regular HydraFacial treatments (once a month) can help maintain and enhance results over time.
For longer-lasting results, it’s recommended to maintain regular treatments and combine them with a good skincare regimen at home, including sunscreen to protect the skin.
Maintenance sessions?
For optimal skin health and sustained results, it’s recommended to have a HydraFacial treatment once a month. Regular treatments help keep the skin clean, hydrated, and youthful.
If you have more specific concerns (like acne, pigmentation, or aging), you might need more frequent treatments, especially in the beginning. One of our staff members can tailor the schedule based on your goals.
Hydrafacial is also a lovely treatment to have as part of a skincare plan here at KINS. You can add it to your skin plan and enhance the results from other treatments you are getting
Aftercare Tips to Prolong Results:
- Daily Sunscreen Use: Protecting your skin from the sun will help maintain the fresh, even tone and prevent damage that can reverse HydraFacial benefits.
- Hydration: Keep your skin hydrated with appropriate moisturizers to extend the hydration boost from the treatment.
- Gentle Skin Care Routine: Avoid harsh exfoliation or aggressive skin care products immediately after a HydraFacial to prevent irritation and maintain smooth, glowing skin.
Contraindications
Contraindications for Hydrafacial can include but are not limited to:
Active Skin Infections: If you have an active skin infection, such as cold sores, herpes simplex, or any open wounds on your face, HydraFacial should be avoided.
Severe Acne: For those with severe acne or cystic acne, HydraFacial may not be appropriate, as the exfoliation and extraction could irritate the skin further.
Sunburned or Irritated Skin: If your skin is sunburned, inflamed, or irritated, it is best to postpone the treatment until your skin has fully healed.
Rosacea: While HydraFacial can be beneficial for mild rosacea, those with severe rosacea or active flare-ups should avoid the treatment as it may worsen irritation.
Active or Severe Eczema/Psoriasis: If you have an active eczema or psoriasis flare-up, the treatment might cause further irritation or discomfort.
Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: Although there are no known risks, some providers recommend avoiding facial treatments during pregnancy, especially if the skin is extra sensitive.
Allergy to HydraFacial Ingredients: If you’re allergic to any of the ingredients used in HydraFacial serums (such as glycolic acid, salicylic acid, or peptides), the treatment should be avoided.
Recent Botox or Fillers: If you’ve recently had Botox or dermal fillers, it’s best to wait for a certain period (usually around two weeks) before undergoing a HydraFacial to avoid potential complications.
Use of Accutane: If you are currently using or have used Accutane in the past six months, HydraFacial may not be advisable due to the sensitivity of the skin caused by this medication.
