Hydrafacial
Deep pore cleansing. Instant glow. Zero downtime.
Hydrafacials in Philadelphia are a high-performance, medical-grade facial that exfoliates, extracts, hydrates, and protects in one streamlined treatment. It’s designed to leave skin looking cleaner, smoother, plumper, and more balanced.
Hydrafacial in Philly
Hydrafacial is a medical-grade, multi-step facial that combines gentle exfoliation, suction-based pore extraction, and deep hydration in one treatment. Using patented vortex technology, it clears out congestion and buildup while delivering targeted serums—so skin looks cleaner, smoother, and more refreshed without harsh scrubbing or painful extractions.
Clients sometimes call it a “car wash for your face” or a “power wash for pores”—because you leave feeling squeaky clean, not stripped.
What Makes Hydrafacials Different?
Plenty of facials exfoliate. Some do extractions. Hydrafacial does both—with controlled vortex suction—and then immediately follows with targeted serum infusion so skin looks calm, not “worked on.”
The Key Difference: Hydrafacial isn’t just “a hydration facial.” It’s primarily an advanced deep pore cleanse that also supports skin balance (oil, congestion, dullness) and glow.
Targeted Skin Concerns
What Hydrafacial Can Help Improve
Hydrafacial is one of the most versatile skincare treatments we offer because it supports multiple skin concerns in a single appointment. By combining deep cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, and hydration, Hydrafacial helps improve the overall look, feel, and clarity of the skin — making it a strong option for both routine maintenance and more targeted skin goals.
Hydrafacials can help improve:
Congested Pores
Hydrafacial uses gentle suction to lift away buildup, oil, and debris from the pores, helping skin look cleaner, clearer, and less congested.

Dry or Dehydrated Skin

Dullness
When dead skin cells build up on the surface, skin can start to look flat or tired. Hydrafacial exfoliates away that layer to reveal a fresher, brighter-looking complexion.

Types of Hydrafacial
Signature, Deluxe, or Platinum — Which One Is Right for You?
Every Hydrafacial includes the core steps clients love: deep cleansing, exfoliation, painless extractions, and hydration. The difference is in how much customization and enhancement is built into the treatment.
At Ari Blanc Medical Spa in Old City Philadelphia, our three Hydrafacial options make it easy to choose the right fit for your skin’s needs, your goals, and your schedule.
Signature Hydrafacial
45 MINUTES
The Signature Hydrafacial is the classic Hydrafacial treatment and a favorite for clients who want skin that looks cleaner, smoother, and more refreshed — without downtime.
This multi-step facial deeply cleanses the skin, exfoliates away dull surface buildup, performs gentle suction-based extractions, and infuses the skin with hydrating, antioxidant-rich serums.
BEST FOR:
Routine skin maintenance, pore congestion, dullness, and that fresh, polished post-facial look.
WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT:
- Deeply cleanses without harsh scrubbing
- Helps clear out buildup and congestion
- Leaves skin smoother, fresher, and more hydrated
- No downtime, so it fits easily into your routine
Deluxe Hydrafacial
60 MINUTES
The Deluxe Hydrafacial includes everything in the Signature treatment, then builds on it with a targeted booster and LED light therapy for a more customized experience.
After cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, and hydration, we select a booster based on what your skin needs most right now — whether that is added hydration, brighter-looking tone, support for visible redness, or help softening the look of fine lines.
BEST FOR:
Clients who want a more customized Hydrafacial for concerns like dehydration, uneven tone, redness, or early signs of aging.
WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT:
- Adds a targeted booster for a more personalized treatment
- Gives you more than a general refresh
- Helps support visible tone, hydration, and overall skin quality
- Includes LED light therapy for an extra treatment step
- Ideal when you want results that feel more tailored to your skin
Platinum Hydrafacial
90 MINUTES
The Platinum Hydrafacial is the most comprehensive Hydrafacial we offer. It begins with lymphatic drainage to help reduce the look of puffiness and support circulation, then includes the full Hydrafacial treatment: cleansing, exfoliation, painless extractions, and deep hydration. From there, the treatment is finished with a personalized booster and LED light therapy for the most complete, results-driven experience.
BEST FOR:
Dull, tired, puffy, or congested skin that needs a full reset with the most complete Hydrafacial experience.
WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT:
- Starts with lymphatic drainage to help de-puff and refresh
- Includes every core step of the Hydrafacial treatment
- Adds both a targeted booster and LED therapy
- Feels corrective, customized, and comprehensive
- Delivers the most complete glow-up of the three options
Hydrafacial Boosters
Hydrafacial boosters are targeted treatment serums that make your facial more customized to your skin’s current needs. Boosters help address specific concerns like dehydration, dullness, uneven tone, visible redness, and early signs of aging — so your treatment goes beyond a general refresh.
HOW BOOSTERS MAKE A DIFFERENCE:
- Add a more targeted, corrective element to your Hydrafacial
- Help personalize the treatment based on your skin goals
- Support concerns like dryness, tone, texture, and visible redness
Hydrafacial Lip Perk
Lip Perks gives the lips focused attention that a full-face treatment doesn’t always address on its own.
With gentle exfoliation and the Lip Replenishing Serum, Lip Perks helps smooth rough texture, replenish moisture, and improve the overall look and feel of the lips. The result is lips that appear softer, more supple, and more refreshed.
HOW PERKS MAKE A DIFFERENCE:
- Smooths dry surface buildup
- Replenishes hydration
- Helps lips look softer and subtly plumper
Hydrafacial Eye Perk
Paired with the Eye Replenishing Serum, Eye Perks gives the delicate eye area targeted support through gentle exfoliation and hydration.
It helps the skin around the eyes look smoother, brighter, and more refreshed while supporting a firmer-looking finish.
HOW PERKS MAKE A DIFFERENCE:
- Brightens and refreshes tired-looking eyes
- Smooths and hydrates the eye area
- Helps support a firmer, more revived look
Benefits of Hydrafacials
Why You’ll Love Hydrafacials
For clients searching for Hydrafacial in Philadelphia, this is the glow-up that doesn’t make you choose between deep cleaning and deep hydration. Hydrafacial uses vortex suction to clear congestion and buildup, then immediately infuses your skin with targeted serums—so you leave looking fresh, smooth, and very visibly polished, with no downtime.
But what clients really love? It’s the way their skin feels after—clean, calm, and bouncy… like you did everything right for two weeks, in one appointment.
Smoother Texture. Cleaner-Looking Pores.
Hydrafacial gently exfoliates and uses controlled suction to lift debris from pores—helping skin look more refined and feel noticeably smoother (without aggressive extractions).
Hydration That Actually Lasts
This isn’t a “slap on moisturizer and hope” facial. Hydrafacial delivers hydration and skin-supporting ingredients directly after cleansing, so skin looks plumper and more balanced.
A Real Reset for Congestion + Dullness
If your skin gets congested fast—blackheads, buildup, that “my face feels dirty” feeling—Hydrafacial is a reliable maintenance move, especially for oily and combination skin types.
Customizable for Your Skin Goals
Hydrafacial can be tailored with boosters and enhancements to suit your skin’s needs—whether you’re focused on glow, clarity, or overall skin quality.
Event-Ready Results
Most clients see results immediately, and the glow typically lasts 2–4 weeks—making it one of the best “photos soon” treatments on the menu.
Comfortable + Relaxing
Hydrafacial is designed to feel easy: light suction, a smooth glide, and a refreshed finish—no harsh abrasion, no aggressive digging.

The Hydrafacial Experience
What to Expect During Your Hydrafacial Appointment
Your Hydrafacial in Philadelphia begins with a quick assessment of your skin, your current concerns, and what you want most from the treatment — whether that’s a deep cleanse, smoother texture, more hydration, or a brighter, more refreshed look. From there, we tailor the experience to your skin and select the Hydrafacial protocol that makes the most sense for your goals, whether that’s Signature, Deluxe, or Platinum.
The treatment itself is comfortable, non-invasive, and designed to leave skin looking instantly cleaner, smoother, and more hydrated. Using Hydrafacial’s signature multi-step process, we cleanse, exfoliate, clear congestion from the pores, and infuse the skin with nourishing serums in one appointment. Depending on your treatment, your service may also include targeted boosters, lymphatic drainage, or LED light therapy for more personalized skin support.
Below, you’ll find more details on how to prepare for your appointment, when to expect that post-Hydrafacial glow, and how to maintain your results between visits.
Treatment Essentials
Hydrafacial requires little to no downtime, making it a great option before events, photos, or anytime you want your skin looking fresh, clean, and hydrated. For best timing, many clients schedule their Hydrafacial within a few days of a special occasion.
Before treatment, we may recommend briefly pausing certain active skincare products if your skin is feeling sensitized. Afterward, keep your routine gentle, stay consistent with hydration and SPF, and avoid harsh exfoliation for the rest of the day.
We’ll always review personalized pre- and post-care instructions during your appointment.

Enhancing & Maintaining Results
To optimize and extend results:
- Dermaplaning helps refine the skin’s surface for an even smoother, more polished finish.
- Microneedling may be incorporated before or after Hydrafacial.
- MOXI® can also complement Hydrafacial, depending on your treatment goals and timing.
- Medical-grade skincare + daily SPF help support your results at home and keep skin looking clear, hydrated, and healthy between appointments.
Results & Timeline
One of the reasons clients love Hydrafacial is that results are visible right away. Skin typically looks cleaner, smoother, more hydrated, and more refreshed immediately after treatment, with that post-facial glow often most noticeable in the first few days.
Day 1 (Treatment Day)
Skin looks freshly cleansed, smoother, and more hydrated, with little to no downtime for most clients.
24–72 Hours
This is often when skin looks especially polished, plump, and radiant — making Hydrafacial a popular choice before events, photos, and special occasions.
Days 3–7
Skin generally continues to look balanced, clear, and refreshed, especially when paired with a consistent at-home skincare routine.
Ongoing with Regular Treatments
With routine Hydrafacial appointments, clients often notice continued improvement in overall skin clarity, smoothness, hydration, and visible congestion over time.
How Often Should You Rebook?
For general skin maintenance, many clients benefit from a Hydrafacial every 4–6 weeks.
If you’re using Hydrafacial as part of a broader skincare plan or between more corrective treatments, we may recommend a schedule based on your skin goals.
