What is HydraFacial?

HydraFacial is a noninvasive, multi-step treatment that can include up to seven therapies working in sequence:

Lymphatic drainage to support detoxification and reduce puffiness
Gentle microdermabrasion/cleanse to lift dull surface cells
Customized chemical peel for brightness and smoothness
Painless extractions to clear congestion and refine the look of pores
Targeted boosters matched to your concerns, such as fine lines, discoloration, and breakouts
LED light therapy (red or blue) to support skin goals
Antioxidant hydration infusion for the signature post-treatment glow

Patient Review

Dr. Leong is AMAZING! He was so kind and knowledgeable, explained everything in great detail. I was a little nervous, I really wanted it to look natural and that is exactly what I got. The process didn't hurt at all. Will absolutely be back in a few months for my touch up!

Are You a Good Candidate?

Most skin types—including sensitive, oily, dry/dehydrated, and mature skin—do well with HydraFacial
Great if you’re noticing dullness, congestion, visible pores, early fine lines, uneven tone, or you want a reliable “event-ready” refresh
We’ll avoid treatment over open lesions, active infections, or during certain medical therapies

Hydrafacial FAQ

How long do HydraFacial results last?

Most patients enjoy their signature “HydraFacial glow” for 5–7 days, with improved clarity and hydration often lasting up to two weeks. Regular monthly treatments help build and maintain long-term results.

How often should I schedule a HydraFacial?

For optimal results, many patients opt for a monthly series. However, your provider may recommend a different frequency based on your skin type, seasonal changes, and specific concerns, such as acne, fine lines, or dryness.

Is HydraFacial safe for sensitive skin or conditions like rosacea?

HydraFacial is designed for nearly all skin types, including sensitive or redness-prone skin. With customizable boosters and gentle technology, it can be adapted for rosacea, though we always assess individual suitability during consultation.

Are there any risks or side effects?

HydraFacial is considered very safe. Minor, temporary redness or tightness may occur but usually resolves within a few hours. Because it avoids harsh manual extraction or aggressive peels, it is gentler than many traditional facials.

What is the average cost of a HydraFacial?

The cost varies depending on treatment level and any added boosters. On average, a HydraFacial in the U.S. ranges from $150 to $350 per session. At Leong Aesthetics, we provide a personalized quote during your consultation.

Can I get a HydraFacial before a big event?

Absolutely. HydraFacial is a go-to “red carpet” treatment because it delivers instant glow with no downtime. Many patients schedule it a few days before weddings, photo shoots, or other important events.

Does HydraFacial help with acne?

Yes. The clarifying HydraFacial option uses deep cleansing, painless extractions, and blue LED light therapy to reduce congestion, oiliness, and breakouts. It can be an excellent ongoing maintenance treatment for acne-prone skin.

How is HydraFacial different from a regular facial?

Traditional facials often rely on manual extractions and surface treatments. HydraFacial combines cleansing, exfoliation, painless suction, hydration, and serum infusion with medical-grade precision for more consistent, visible results in less time.
