What is HydraFacial?

The award-winning HydraFacial is globally known as an ultimate deep cleansing, ‘glow up’ skin treatment which rejuvenates and immediately refreshes your skin with a personalised combination of exfoliation, active ingredients, lymphatic sculpting, and light therapy.

Offering six treatments in one, HydraFacial reveals healthier, glowing, revitalised, and radiant skin. This beloved treatment is suitable for all concerns and skin types on the face, scalp, and body.

HydraFacial is a treatment that everyone can benefit from because almost every aspect of this infamous treatment can be adjusted and personalised for your unique needs, including levels of exfoliation, extraction needs, and the choice of nourishing boosters which are formulated to address specific skin concerns.

 

A multi-step treatment experience, HydraFacial gives you instant results after each treatment, leaving you with better-looking and feeling skin. At our Hertfordshire skin clinic, we personalise your HydraFacial to meet your individual concerns with customisable options, including boosters chosen for your unique concerns or goals to enhance your treatment further and have targeted actions on your skin.
We begin your HydraFacial experience with soothing and detoxifying Lymphatic Drainage to reduce puffiness and provide the appearance of contouring and lifting.

Next, we’ll reveal smoother, softer skin texture and radiant skin clarity with a deep cleanse, gentle chemical peel, and pain-free extractions using the HydraFacial Vortex-Fusion technology. Following the treatment, your practitioner will be able to show you all the impurities that have been removed from your skin; in the world of HydraFacial, this debris is what is referred to as ‘The Gunkie’!

If you chose to include a booster in your treatment, this is a completely customisable option where a potent, concentrated skin booster formulated by HydraFacial and their expert partners is applied to target your personal skin concerns, infusing active ingredients deep into your skin.

The next step is to apply LED light therapy to your skin. This stage of the HydraFacial experience is also customisable to your requirements. LED light therapy is a powerful way to reduce skin inflammation and stimulate collagen production, which is a vital protein for maintaining youthful-looking and acting skin. LED light therapy can also help to reduce P. acnes which are acne-causing bacteria found on your skin. LED light therapy is suitable for all skin tones.

Finally, your skin is flooded with antioxidant-infused hyaluronic acid to protect, hydrate, and plump the skin for the ultimate skin glow.

There a several customisable HydraFacial options when you come to us; this will be unique to you and your skin and will be decided during a consultation with your practitioner, you will be guided towards the best options for your skin after discussing what you’d like to achieve. 

One of the ways in which you can customise your treatment at our St.Albans Hydrafacial clinic is with a HydraFacial Booster. Should you choose to personalise your HydraFacial treatment this way, you and your practitioner can prescriptively choose a targeted booster solution best suited to help you achieve your skincare goals. Your choice of HydraFacial Booster at Skin to Love includes the JLO BEAUTY booster; Murad Clarifying booster; ReGen GF booster; Dermabuilder booster; ZO Brightalive booster; Britenol booster; and Epicutus booster.

HydraFacial is an excellent standalone treatment but is also a fantastic adjunct to enhance other skin treatments you may be having. 

Where can I get Hydrafacial?

HydraFacial UK is available at both beauty clinics/salons, as well as medical-aesthetic clinics. 

HydraFacial is available at our St. Albans, Hertfordshire skin clinic. We offer competitive HydraFacial prices, as well as caring, experienced aesthetic, and medical practitioners in a safe, Care Quality Commission (CQC) setting, which is additionally accredited by Save Face.

 

Are HydraFacial results immediate?

Yes, HydraFacial results are immediate. Your skin can feel cleaner, softer, and smoother, and look brighter!  

A single HydraFacial treatment can be used to boost your skin before an event, such as a party, particularly if you have no pressing skincare concerns other than wanting your skin to look its best. However, if you are using HydraFacial to improve a specific concern you will need a course of treatment as advised by your skincare practitioner. 

 

HydraFacial near me?

If you’re looking for a ‘HydraFacial near me’ good advice would be to find a reputable skin clinic that offers an official HydraFacial treatment. 

If you’re searching for ‘HydraFacial near me’ in Hertfordshire, The Skin to Love Clinic is a St. Albans-based, medical-aesthetic clinic that offers HydraFacial treatments. 

 

HydraFacial for men?

Absolutely! HydraFacial can be a great option for men, particularly if you’re looking for a results-driven skin treatment that doesn’t require recovery time.

Additionally, you can customise your HydraFacial treatment should you have any additional skin concerns or if you would like to give a trouble spot, such as around the eyes, more of a boost.  

HydraFacial is an excellent skin treatment option that can revitalise and refresh your skin without it being obvious that you’ve had a treatment. Just healthier, better-looking skin.

 

How long does HydraFacial last?

This depends on how you customise your treatment, but you can expect to be relaxing into your HydraFacial for 45 minutes to an hour.

 

Is HydraFacial like microdermabrasion? 

No. HydraFacial DOES deeply exfoliate your skin, amongst many other benefits that Microdermabrasion does not offer, however, HydraFacial removes the old, dead skin cells effectively without damaging the living part of your skin.

Microdermabrasion uses very fine crystals which are blasted at your skin to physically exfoliate the skin cells away. At our skin clinic, we prefer not to use this physical method of exfoliation as it can damage healthy skin and leave it vulnerable to skin-ageing free radicals. It’s also worth noting that skin of colour may be more at risk of pigmentation issues due to microdermabrasion causing inflammation.  

HydraFacial can safely and effectively be used on all skin types and all skin tones. 

 

Will HydraFacial help acne?

At our Hertfordshire skin clinic, we offer many clinically proven treatment options specifically designed to help you manage acne.

It’s important to note that there is currently no known cure for acne. However, there are treatments and products that can help you successfully manage the condition. HydraFacial is a tool that may be suitable to help you manage your acne; you will be guided by your practitioner following a consultation.

 

HydraFacial Price?

This will differ depending on where you are in the UK; between clinics; and any customisable options you choose for your treatment.

At our Hertfordshire, UK skin clinic we are approximately a fifteen-minute train journey into London and our HydraFacial prices start at £140*.

 

Are HydraFacial boosters worth it?

If you have a specific skincare concern, HydraFacial boosters are worth considering. Your practitioner will be able to offer further guidance on this and your unique concerns and goals. 

HydraFacial has teamed up with some of the best skincare brands in the industry to bring you boosters that actively allow you to target your specific concerns, giving you a fully customisable skin treatment. 

Brands that HydraFacial currently collaborate with include ZO Skin Health which is from the dermatologist, Dr Zein Obagi, who bought us the Obagi Nu-Derm range; Murad; and NassifMD. 

 

Why is HydraFacial so expensive?

To discuss HydraFacial cost, it’s best to look at HydraFacial in the context of what you get for the price in comparison to other facial treatments.  In St. Albans, Hertfordshire you can have basic, pampering facials that do not include the use of a results-driven treatment device such as the HydraFacial for approximately £80-£135**; these types of facials are designed with relaxation in mind where a therapist uses their hands to cleanse, stimulate the skin, and apply products to the superficial layer of the skin. 

In comparison, HydraFacial UK offers result-driven treatments with unique technology and powerful product ingredients that can be customised, in many ways, to suit your unique requirements. Any similar action on the skin, such as cleansing, is more powerful than HydraFacial in comparison to manual facials.  

Our HydraFacial cost starts from £140*. So, as you can see, you get a more powerful, results-driven facial with a HydraFacial at a price that rivals a basic facial and therefore is not an expensive option comparatively when considering facials and skincare.

Treatment Summary

No. of treatments
Single treatments are available should you like a one-off treatment for a special occasion; however, most people benefit from a course of treatment as some of the treatment actions are accumulative. Additionally, throughout your course we can progress your treatment strength to further enhance your results; this is something that must be built up and won’t be experienced on the first session. Your treatment requirements will be determined during your consultation as this can vary depending on your concerns and how advanced your symptoms are.

Procedure time
45 to 60 minutes depending on your customisation options.

Discomfort level
None. At specific parts of the treatment a gentle vacuum is used to assist with a thorough cleanse of your skin, helping to flush out your pores and extract debris deep within your skin; this can be adjusted to your comfort level.

Recovery time
No recovery time usually required. Your skin may temporarily look flushed post treatment, but this is transient.

Final results
Some changes can be noticed after your fist treatment; most will notice that the skin feels softer, smoother, and has a glow. However, best results are after a full course of treatment.

Duration of results
Most have monthly treatments, but this will depend on your skin and specific goals.

Resume usual activities
Immediately.

Consultation needed prior
Yes

Emma is a dermatologist at the top of her field. She performed the treatment and expertly removed the lesion from my leg. The histology report came in 10 days and Emma fully explained the results and outcomes in a calm and reassuring manner. Her expertise and knowledge is second to none and I would highly recommend her.

My skin is glowing following a Hydrafacial Treatment with Nikki. My skin feels so clean and hydrated, I'm thrilled with the results. Highly recommend!
I had an excellent Hydrafacial which was recommended to me by Jane. I had my treatment with Nikki, who was so friendly and made me feel comfortable from start to finish. She was so professional and gave me all the information about each step of the facial. She struck the perfect balance between getting to know me/building a rapport, and also giving me the chance to switch off and relax. It was a lovely treatment and I’m so grateful to Nikki for all her knowledge and skill. My skin felt amazing afterwards and I received so many compliments about my “glowing skin”! Thank you for making it such a personable experience. We also added on the Slimyonik treatment which was so lovely and relaxing. I was able to add this on last minute after being recommended by Kerri. Again, tailoring the treatment to me personally added so much to my overall experience. I’m so glad I added this to the treatment and would recommend the skin to love clinic to anyone. Thank you Nikki, Jane & Kerri.
Smooth and very well explained procedure. I recommend the clinic.
Response from the owner: Thank you for leaving us a five star review Rocío. Much appreciated.

10/10 - outstanding advice and treatment from Jane at Skin to Love. I had a burst capillary on my nose which I was covering for 2 years. With one consultation and one course of treatment Jane removed it. I should have consulted her sooner. Jane is now my ‘go to’ skin adviser. Quality service and exceptional value for money. Thank you
