Many skin and beauty products on the market promise to bring out the best in your skin, but most of these generic solutions cannot fully address your skincare needs. At eSSe Plastic Surgery, we take a patient-centered approach to skincare with our customizable Hydrafacial treatments.
Serving Fort Lauderdale and the surrounding areas from Boca Raton to Miami, eSSe Plastic Surgery is led by Dr. Tracey Stokes and Dr. Laura Sudarsky. We offer this treatment because of the many short and long-term benefits that the Hydrafacial can bring to our patients. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and find your perfect facial with our Hydrafacial system.
What Is HydraFacial?
The key to beautiful skin is healthy skin, and with Hydrafacial, we focus on nourishing, replenishing, and protecting your skin with technology that is completely non-invasive and that will not only improve your appearance but also restore the overall health of your skin. Each Hydrafacial treatment is personalized and hand-selected to create the best results for your skin type, tone, and condition — the way skincare should be.
How Does HydraFacial Work?
This comfortable, refreshing treatment consists of multiple steps:
- Vortex-Exfoliation™ removes dead skin cells to allow healthy skin underneath to show.
- Vortex-Peel™ offers similar results to a chemical peel but with an even gentler touch.
- Vortex-Extraction™ cleans out pores using painless, medical-grade vortex suction.
- Vortex-Boost™ infuses the skin with personalized, hand-selected serums that address your specific skin concerns.
- Vortex-Fusion™ delivers essential antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid into the skin for nourishment and protection.
- Extend and Protect products help you maintain your softer, smoother, rejuvenated skin at home.
What Are the Benefits of HydraFacial?
- Immediate Results: With HydraFacial, results are immediately visible. You can walk out of your appointment looking noticeably more refreshed with glowing and hydrated skin.

What Can Hydrafacial Treat?
Fine Lines and Wrinkles
As the skin ages, it naturally loses hydration and elasticity which may cause the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Hydrafacial treatments infuse the skin with moisture and essential nutrients that hydrate the skin. The treatment also combines exfoliation with hydrating serums, which can promote cell turnover and support the skin’s natural repair processes to help diminish wrinkles.
Acne Breakouts
Each Hydrafacial treatment uses a unique combination of cleansing, exfoliating, and extracting to target factors that contribute to acne breakouts. By removing dead skin cells, excess oil, and other debris from the pores, it helps reduce blockages that can lead to acne. The treatment also introduces calming and anti-inflammatory serums which may reduce redness and irritation often associated with breakouts.
Dryness and Dehydration
Dehydrated skin can feel tight, flaky, and rough to the touch. During the Hydrafacial treatment, a special hydration step infuses the skin with moisture and addresses dryness at its root. The combination of antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, and peptides helps restore the skin’s hydration barrier, locking in moisture and leaving the skin feeling more supple.
Congested and Oily Skin
Excess oil production and congestion can lead to enlarged pores and blemishes. Hydrafacial cleansing uses vacuum technology to deeply cleanse pores by removing oil buildup and impurities that contribute to congestion. This process can help balance oil production by gently extracting what’s trapped in the skin without over-drying, stripping, or causing irritation.
Uneven Skin Tone
Hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and dull patches can result in an uneven skin tone. Hydrafacials combine gentle exfoliation with brightening serums to target discoloration. By removing dead skin cells and delivering customized boosters for pigmentation concerns, this treatment can improve the skin’s overall clarity and radiance.
What Are Booster Serums?
Booster serums are skincare solutions designed for use with the Hydrafacial device. These potent formulas are packed with active ingredients that penetrate deep into the skin, targeting issues like hydration, fine lines, dullness, and more. After your skin is cleansed, exfoliated, and extracted during a Hydrafacial, booster serums are applied to maximize the rejuvenation process and provide long-lasting results.
Hydrafacial has paired with some of the most trusted brands in skincare to offer an extensive selection of boosters that target different skin needs. These boosters allow for customization based on your skin type and desired outcome. While there are many more boosters available, here are some examples of popular options:
- Alastin™ TriHex-Pro Booster: Known for its regenerative properties, this booster supports skin health by removing damaged collagen and elastin, promoting new collagen production. It helps improve skin texture and elasticity while accelerating recovery from damage and is an ideal choice for facial rejuvenation.
- Murad® Retinol Booster: The Murad Retinol Booster delivers a high concentration of retinol to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This booster helps stimulate skin cell turnover, smoothing the skin’s surface for a more youthful look.
- NassifMD® Hydraglucan™ Booster: This booster uses a blend of hydrating ingredients to nourish the skin. It supports hydration at a deeper level, improving the skin’s natural barrier and providing long-lasting moisture, which is key for achieving smoother, healthier skin.
- Circadia Chrono-Peptide Booster: This booster combines powerful peptides to rejuvenate and energize your skin. The Chronocyclin Peptide supports cellular repair and optimizes Vitamin D stimulation. NeoDermyl acts as a “needle-free” filler, enhancing collagen and elastin for improved skin density and firmness.
- ZO® Brightalive® Booster: The ZO Brightalive Booster targets uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation. By delivering a blend of brightening agents and antioxidants, it helps reduce the appearance of dark spots and discoloration. This booster is perfect for those looking to achieve a brightening facial.
Before and After HydraFacial
HydraFacial FAQs
Are There Any Side Effects?
Unlike skin treatments that use abrasive or irritating ingredients to achieve results, HydraFacial is gentle, soothing, and skin-friendly from start to finish. You will leave our office feeling refreshed without any visible signs that you have undergone an aesthetic treatment. Whether you want to look your best for a special event or if you just want to subtly rejuvenate your skin, HydraFacial can help.
How Should I Prepare for My HydraFacial?
Preparing for your HydraFacial is simple: arrive with a clean face free of makeup. It’s beneficial to discuss any skin sensitivities or concerns with us before your appointment, as this can help customize the treatment to your skin’s needs. Hydration is key, so drinking plenty of water beforehand can enhance your results.
Who Is a Good Candidate for a HydraFacial?
Anyone looking for a non-invasive facial to rejuvenate and refresh their skin makes a good candidate for a HydraFacial. This treatment is uniquely tailored for all skin types and concerns, whether you’re dealing with acne, wrinkles, or dryness. It’s an excellent option for individuals seeking noticeable improvements without downtime.
How Often Can I Get a HydraFacial Treatment?
You can enjoy a HydraFacial treatment once every four weeks. This frequency supports the skin’s natural renewal cycle, allowing each session to build upon the last for optimal results. Regular treatments can help maintain a healthy, radiant complexion year-round.
What Is the Aftercare Process Following a HydraFacial?
Aftercare following a HydraFacial is minimal, but any extra care you give to your skin will enhance your HydraFacial benefits. We recommend using a gentle cleanser and moisturizer to maintain hydration. Also, applying sunscreen is crucial to protect your refreshed skin from sun exposure.
What Different Options Are Available With the HydraFacial?
The HydraFacial offers various options for facial rejuvenation, including boosters to target specific concerns and to reduce inflammation or bacteria. Each treatment is customizable, allowing us to tailor your HydraFacial to suit your unique skin needs and goals and to enhance the overall facial rejuvenation experience.
What Can I Expect From the Process?
- Cleansing and Exfoliation: The HydraFacial starts with a thorough HydraFacial cleansing and exfoliation phase, where dead skin cells are removed to reveal a fresher, cleaner layer underneath. This step uses a gentle vortex suction technology to lift away impurities, preparing your skin for the next phases of the treatment.
- Peeling: Following cleansing, a gentle peeling solution is applied to the skin. This step uses mild acids to soften and loosen debris from the pores without causing irritation. This part of the brightening facial is designed to add a glow to the complexion and smooth out any texture issues.
- Extraction: Extraction focuses on deep facial rejuvenation, removing blackheads and impurities from the pores with painless suction. During this phase, you’ll experience the cleansing benefits on a deeper level, as the HydraFacial device effectively clears out congestion.
- Hydration: After cleansing and clearing the skin, the HydraFacial treatment infuses your skin with intense hydration. Highly moisturizing serums are delivered deep into the skin, promoting elasticity and resilience. This step not only hydrates but also helps to diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Fusion and Protection: The final step of this non-invasive facial involves the fusion of the skin with antioxidants and peptides through boosters to provide protection from environmental pollutants. Then, you can take advantage of at-home products to continue caring for your skin until your next appointment.
