Can you wear makeup after a HydraFacial?

Makeup can be worn after the HydraFacial; however, it is advised to keep the skin clean post-treatment so that you don't have to wash all the great stuff at the end of the night. The oily feeling on your skin is the healthy serums that were applied during the session. Plus, it’s a break for your pores so they won’t be clogged again.

Does HydraFacial cause breakouts?

Hydrafacial will not cause breakouts; however, due to the suction, any congestion found under the skin can move closer to the surface and a breakout can occur. As you receive regular HydraFacials, your skin will not be as congested and breakouts will reduce.

With a few sessions, your skin will be able to breathe and be cleaner - HydraFacial is also ideal for people with known sensitive skin.
