HydroDermabrasion Facial

No — HydroDermabrasion Facial is designed to be relaxing, not invasive. Most clients describe it as a series of cool, tingly passes across the skin with an occasional warm suction sensation during extraction. The most intense moment is usually the exfoliation step (10–15 seconds) and that's more 'busy' than uncomfortable. If you have reactive skin, tell Jas at the start and she'll adjust pressure and product choice accordingly.

Most of HydroDermabrasion Facial is safe in pregnancy and breastfeeding — the mechanical cleanse, hydration, and massage steps all fine. What changes is active-ingredient choice: Jas swaps out retinoids, high-strength acids, and some peel agents for pregnancy-safe alternatives. Flag it at booking and at the start of the session; she'll tailor the protocol. If you're in the first trimester or unsure, check with your midwife first — the answer is almost always yes, but it should be your decision with medical input.

Bring a photo of your current routine to the consultation. Some actives (retinoids, strong acids, benzoyl peroxide) need pausing 3–5 days before HydroDermabrasion Facial to avoid over-sensitivity; others are fine to continue. Jas will walk you through what to pause, what to keep, and which products (if any) to add post-treatment — nothing generic, just what suits what you already use.

Most clients see best results booking 3–4 weeks (new clients), every 6–8 weeks (maintenance). Going more often than that doesn't accelerate skin renewal — your skin cycle is what it is, usually 28–40 days. Less often (every 8–12 weeks) works well for maintenance once initial goals are met. First-time clients often start closer together (3–4 weeks) for the first three sessions, then space out.

The visible glow holds for about a week. Skin stays measurably more hydrated for 2–3 weeks, and pore visibility improvements can last 4–6 weeks. Regular bookings compound the effect — after three sessions most clients notice their 'baseline' skin looks better even before the next appointment. Diet, sleep, and sun exposure influence the decay curve more than anything Jas can do at the table.

Yes, with spacing. For botox or fillers, book HydroDermabrasion Facial either two weeks before or two weeks after — not within — so neither treatment interferes with the other. For laser or peels, stagger by 4 weeks minimum. Jas will plan the sequencing with you during consultation if you're layering treatments; the order matters more than people think.

HydroDermabrasion Facial suits most skin types — oily, dry, combination, mature, sensitive with a tailored product choice. Active severe acne (inflamed, cystic) is a pause-and-treat case — Jas may recommend a simpler cleansing protocol for a few sessions first. Rosacea and eczema are workable but need a gentler pressure and ingredient list; always flag at booking.
