6 Steps of HydraFacial: Treatment Details and Benefits

Saniyya Mahmood • April 30, 2023

What is HydraFacial treatment?

HydraFacial is a non-invasive skincare treatment that involves multiple steps to cleanse, exfoliate, extract, and hydrate the skin. It is an all-in-one treatment that is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.


The HydraFacial treatment is available at our Leeds clinic and uses a unique, patented technology that works by delivering serums and antioxidants deep into the skin, leaving it looking fresh, radiant, and rejuvenated. It is a painless treatment that requires no downtime, and the results can be seen immediately. To book a consultation with our skin experts, simply contact us here.

The 6 Steps of HydraFacial

This step involves using a vacuum-like tool to remove any blackheads or whiteheads from the skin. This is a painless and effective way to unclog pores and remove impurities.

In this step, a serum containing antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid is infused into the skin to hydrate and plump it. This step helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and leaves the skin feeling soft and supple.

Step 5: LED Light Therapy

This step involves using a specialised light to reduce inflammation and redness in the skin. This helps to calm the skin and reduce the appearance of acne.

In the final step, a protective serum is applied to the skin to lock in the benefits of the treatment and protect the skin from environmental damage.
