Both leave skin brighter. They work differently, and the right one depends on what you want to change and how much time you have.

It's the question we hear most at the front desk. Both treatments leave your skin looking fresher, but they do it in different ways.

The HydraFacial

A deep cleanse, gentle extraction and a hydrating serum infusion, in 60 minutes. There's no downtime: you can go straight back to your day. Signature HydraFacials start from $199.

Choose it when

  • Your skin looks dull, dry or congested.
  • You have an event coming up and can't risk any flaking.
  • You want a regular treatment to keep your skin on track.
