Hydradermabrasion: What to Expect From Your Treatment
Updated: Aug 19
Looking for a facial that leaves your skin feeling cleaner, smoother and more hydrated?
Hydradermabrasion is a professional facial treatment that combines exfoliation, cleansing, extraction and hydration to help improve the appearance of dull, congested and dehydrated skin.
At Dolledupbydalxo Medical Aesthetics in London, Ontario, Hydradermabrasion is customized according to your skin's needs and concerns. Whether your skin feels dry and dull, looks congested or simply needs a refreshing boost, Hydradermabrasion can be incorporated into a personalized skincare routine.
What Is Hydradermabrasion?
Hydradermabrasion is a non-invasive facial treatment that combines exfoliation, cleansing, extraction and hydration using a specialized professional device.
Unlike traditional exfoliation alone, Hydradermabrasion incorporates a liquid-based treatment process to help loosen surface buildup while simultaneously supporting hydration.
The treatment can leave the skin looking refreshed and feeling softer and smoother.
Hydradermabrasion may be helpful for the appearance of:
Dull-looking skin
Dehydrated skin
Congestion
Blackheads
Uneven skin texture
Rough or dry skin
Enlarged-looking pores
Lack of radiance
Surface buildup
Your treatment is selected according to your skin rather than using the exact same protocol for every client.
What Happens During a Hydradermabrasion Treatment?
One of the best things about Hydradermabrasion is that the treatment combines several skin-enhancing steps into one relaxing facial experience.
Step 1: Skin Consultation
Before your treatment begins, we'll discuss your skin concerns, current skincare routine and treatment goals.
This helps determine which approach is most appropriate for your skin.
Step 2: Cleansing
Your skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove makeup, oil and surface impurities.
Proper cleansing prepares the skin for the treatment steps that follow.
Step 3: Exfoliation
The treatment gently exfoliates the surface of the skin, helping to remove dead skin cell buildup and improve the appearance of texture.
This can leave the skin feeling smoother and looking brighter.
Step 4: Hydradermabrasion & Extraction
The specialized device is used across the skin to help loosen and remove surface buildup and congestion while delivering the treatment solution.
This step can be particularly beneficial if your skin feels congested or lacks smoothness.
Step 5: Hydration
Hydrating solutions and professional skincare ingredients are incorporated according to your treatment protocol and skin needs.
The goal is to leave your skin feeling refreshed, comfortable and hydrated.
Step 6: Finishing Products
Your treatment is finished with appropriate professional skincare and sun protection recommendations based on your skin.

What Are the Benefits of Hydradermabrasion?
Hydradermabrasion can be a great option when your main goal is to refresh the appearance of your skin while addressing several surface-level concerns in one treatment.
Potential benefits include:
Smoother-Looking Skin
Exfoliation helps remove surface buildup, leaving the skin feeling softer and smoother.
Hydrated-Looking Skin
The treatment incorporates hydration, making it a popular choice for skin that looks or feels dehydrated.
Brighter-Looking Complexion
Removing surface buildup can help reveal a fresher, more radiant-looking complexion.
Helps With Congestion
The cleansing and extraction components can help address surface congestion and buildup.
Refined-Looking Texture
Regular professional exfoliation can help improve the appearance of uneven surface texture.
Fresh Glow
Many clients choose Hydradermabrasion before an event because of the refreshed appearance it can give the skin.
Individual results vary, and the best treatment approach depends on your skin and your goals.
Is Hydradermabrasion Good for Dry Skin?
Hydradermabrasion can be a good option for clients whose main concern is dehydrated or dull-looking skin because the treatment combines exfoliation with hydration.
If your skin is very dry, sensitive or irritated, however, your treatment may need to be adjusted or postponed.
A consultation allows us to determine whether Hydradermabrasion is appropriate for your skin at that time.
Is Hydradermabrasion Good for Congested Skin?
If your skin tends to feel congested or you notice blackheads and surface buildup, Hydradermabrasion may be an option to consider.
The treatment combines cleansing, exfoliation and extraction to help improve the appearance of congested skin.
However, Hydradermabrasion isn't a replacement for medical acne treatment, and active or inflamed acne should be assessed before treatment.
Hydradermabrasion vs. Microdermabrasion
Wondering which one is better?
There isn't necessarily one treatment that is better for everyone. The right choice depends on what your skin needs.
Hydradermabrasion
Hydradermabrasion combines exfoliation with cleansing, extraction and hydration.
It can be a great choice for clients who want:
Hydration
Exfoliation
A refreshed complexion
Help with surface congestion
Smoother-looking skin
A radiant glow
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion focuses primarily on mechanical exfoliation of the outermost layer of the skin.
It may be a good option when your primary concern is:
Dullness
Surface texture
Rough skin
Surface buildup
A more focused exfoliation treatment

What Does Your Skin Look Like After Hydradermabrasion?
One of the reasons clients love Hydradermabrasion is the fresh appearance of the skin following treatment.
Immediately afterward, your skin may look:
Brighter
More hydrated
Smoother
Refreshed
More radiant
Your skin may also feel softer and cleaner.
Results are individual, and some clients may experience temporary mild redness or sensitivity depending on their skin and the treatment performed.
Is There Downtime After Hydradermabrasion?
Hydradermabrasion is generally considered a gentle, non-invasive facial treatment, and many clients return to their normal activities afterward.
However, every skin type responds differently.
Temporary redness or sensitivity can occur, particularly if extractions or more intensive exfoliation are performed.
Your aesthetician will provide aftercare recommendations based on your individual treatment.
Hydradermabrasion Aftercare
Taking care of your skin after treatment helps maintain that fresh, hydrated appearance.
After your appointment:
Keep your skincare routine gentle
Stay hydrated
Avoid unnecessary irritation or aggressive exfoliation
Follow the skincare recommendations provided for your skin
Use SPF as recommended
Avoid introducing multiple new products immediately after treatment
Your aftercare recommendations may vary depending on the exact treatment protocol used during your appointment.
How Often Should You Get Hydradermabrasion?
The ideal frequency depends on your skin, your concerns and your skincare goals.
Some clients may choose Hydradermabrasion as an occasional treatment before an event, while others may incorporate it into a regular professional skincare routine.
During your consultation, we can discuss a treatment schedule that makes sense for your skin.
Who Is Hydradermabrasion Best For?
Hydradermabrasion may be a good option if you're looking for a professional treatment to address the appearance of:
Dull skin
Dehydrated skin
Congestion
Blackheads
Rough texture
Surface buildup
Enlarged-looking pores
Lack of radiance
If you're unsure whether Hydradermabrasion is appropriate for your skin, a consultation is the best place to start.
