HydraFacial® Knoxville

A HydraFacial is a medical-grade hydradermabrasion treatment that uses a patented three-part regimen: cleansing, exfoliating, and then infusing skin with intensive serums. Unlike traditional facials performed by hand, the HydraFacial uses a specialized device to provide deeper penetration and more consistent results.

While microdermabrasion uses manual extractions and crystals to “sand” the skin, HydraFacial uses a vacuum-like tip to deep-clean pores while simultaneously injecting active ingredients. It is much gentler, more hydrating, and suitable for even the most sensitive skin types.

Not at all. Most clients describe the sensation as a “cool, wet paintbrush” moving slowly over the face. There is no pulling, stinging, or discomfort, and many clients find the treatment incredibly relaxing.

One of the best things about the HydraFacial is its efficiency. A standard session at Elite MedAesthetic takes about 30 to 45 minutes, making it easy to fit into a busy schedule or a lunch break.

You may experience very slight redness for about 15 minutes immediately following the treatment, but this quickly subsides into a healthy, rosy glow. There is zero downtime, and you can apply makeup and return to your day immediately.

Because the treatment is highly customizable, it is safe and effective for almost everyone. Whether you have oily, acne-prone skin, dry and flaky skin, or concerns about fine lines and wrinkles, we can adjust the serums to target your specific needs.

Yes! HydraFacials are excellent for acne. The vacuum technology removes the debris and oil that clog pores, while the infusion of salicylic acid helps to treat and prevent breakouts without the irritation of harsh chemical peels.

You will see a visible improvement in skin refinement and a radiant, even tone after just one treatment. For long-term skin health and to significantly reduce the appearance of fine lines, brown spots, and congestion, we recommend one treatment per month.

Absolutely. Many of our clients at Elite MedAesthetic combine HydraFacials with other services like Botox or fillers. In fact, having a HydraFacial first can create a cleaner, more hydrated “canvas” for other aesthetic procedures.

The most important post-care tip is to wear sunscreen, as your skin will be freshly exfoliated and more sensitive to the sun. We also recommend avoiding intense heat (like saunas or heavy workouts) for 24 hours to let the infused serums fully absorb.
