Give your skin a boost with a gentle and effective Hydrafacial treatment at pēkomd®. This innovative treatment uses advanced water technology and a specialized device to deliver seven personalized therapies in a single session, transforming your complexion on a cellular level.

Refreshing the Skin With Targeted Treatments

While standard skin care products help with daily maintenance, advanced skin care treatments are the best way to achieve lasting change. Our Hydrafacial treatments combine exfoliation, cleansing, and extractions with hydration, light therapy, and lymphatic drainage to totally rejuvenate the skin.

What Is a Hydrafacial Treatment?

A HydraFacial is a non-invasive facial treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts impurities, and hydrates the skin in a single session using a specialized handheld device and advanced solutions. It’s popular because it’s gentle, requires little to no downtime, and leaves many people with immediately smoother, more radiant skin.

This technology primarily uses water to flush out impurities and infuse the deepest layers of skin with lasting hydration. It's a multi-step process that includes customized serums, chemical peels, and therapies to address your exact skin concerns. Each session combines seven personalized therapies:

Lymphatic drainage
Microdermabrasion
Customized peel
Extractions
Targeted serum infusion
LED light therapy
Hydration infusion

Who Can Benefit From a Hydrafacial Treatment?

A Hydrafacial treatment is customizable, which makes it a fit for a wide range of skin types and concerns.

Patients at pēkomd® commonly seek this treatment for:

Dull or dehydrated skin — restoring hydration and radiance
Fine lines and wrinkles — supporting a smoother, more youthful texture
Clogged or enlarged pores — deep cleansing and decongesting
Acne-prone or blemish-prone skin — reducing breakouts and oiliness
Early signs of aging — improving tone, fullness, and overall skin quality

Because the treatment is adjustable in intensity and serum selection, your esthetician can tailor each session to your specific goals during your consultation.

What to Expect From Your HydraFacial

A Comprehensive Consultation

Your journey with pēkomd® will begin with an in-depth consultation with one of our aesthetic specialists. There, you’ll discuss your skin goals, concerns, and medical history, and your esthetician will evaluate your skin quality to determine if a HydraFacial is right for you.

Gentle Cleansing

To start your treatment, your esthetician will prep the skin with a targeted cleanser, helping create a clean, consistent surface. Next, they may perform physical extractions or use the HydraFacial device to suction impurities out of the skin.

Exfoliating the Skin

Your HydraFacial may use a physical or chemical exfoliant to slough off dead and damaged skin cells, revealing the fresher skin underneath. Depending on your needs, your esthetician may use the HydraFacial device to apply a customized chemical peel or perform controlled microneedling to exfoliate and refresh the skin.

Treating Your Concerns

To finish your procedure, your esthetician will use the HydraFacial device to deliver a targeted, antioxidant-rich hydration infusion to the deepest layers of your skin. They may also apply a serum, perform LED light therapy, or complete a lymphatic drainage massage to help decrease inflammation and enhance hydration absorption. They’ll finish your treatment with a layer of moisturizer and sunscreen to protect your complexion.

Backed by Clinical Research

Hydrafacial technology is supported by published, peer-reviewed research. In a clinical study on hydradermabrasion — the technology at the core of the Hydrafacial treatment — the treatment was found to effectively improve skin quality by increasing epidermal and dermal thickness and boosting the skin's antioxidant levels (Freedman, Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2008). A related study on combining the treatment with topical antioxidants found the pairing enhanced these skin-quality improvements beyond microdermabrasion alone (Freedman, Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2009).

Instant Skin Transformations

For most patients, HydraFacials do not require any recovery time, and they get back to their normal routines without any interruptions. You may notice mild redness or sensitivity following your treatment, but this should resolve within a few hours. You’ll be able to resume everything from desk work and social activities to strenuous exercise and contact sports the same day.

After your HydraFacial, your esthetician will provide you with a list of aftercare instructions to help you extend the longevity of your results. This list may include the following items:

Skin care product recommendations
Hygiene guidance
Sun exposure and protection protocols
Hydration guidelines

Refined, Rejuvenating Results

The results of your HydraFacial will be visible immediately after your procedure. Your skin will appear clearer, smoother, and more hydrated, and may feel soft or plump to the touch. Many of our patients report an instant confidence boost after their facial, noting that their skin looks healthier and more balanced.
