01 / How it works
Hydrodermabrasion generally combines superficial steps such as cleansing, fluid-assisted exfoliation, tip-based mechanical exfoliation, and topical serum application. The treatment tip moves across the skin, providing controlled exfoliation to loosen selected surface cells, while suction selectively removes surface material and used liquid. A compatible topical cosmetic serum is then applied to temporarily support hydration and comfort.
The exact process varies between devices. Different systems use different tips, suction systems, and liquids. The treatment should be described according to the device actually used at Medi Clinic, rather than assuming every hydrodermabrasion machine uses the same patented technology, achieves the same results, or has identical clinical evidence. The main effects are superficial cleansing, controlled exfoliation, and topical product application.

Who may benefit
Not all skin conditions are suitable for water-based exfoliation or suction. A doctor’s assessment is mandatory to review your medical history, current skincare, allergies, and previous facial treatments.
Candidates suitable for treatment typically include adults bothered by a dull surface appearance, mild roughness, temporary dehydration, or selected superficial blackheads. However, treatment may need to be postponed for patients with sunburn, broken skin, active cold sores, severe inflammatory flares, active weeping acne, or incompletely healed procedures. Patients with rosacea or eczema require individual assessment, as suction and exfoliating ingredients may worsen redness or barrier disruption. A hydrodermabrasion facial is not automatically the correct treatment for every concern.

A typical visit includes a skin history review, cleansing, controlled superficial exfoliation, selective suction, and the application of an appropriate topical serum. “Serum infusion” refers to applying a topical formulation during or after exfoliation; it is not injected into the dermis or delivered into the bloodstream. A topical hyaluronic-acid serum is not the same as an injectable skin booster.
Hydrodermabrasion may help selected patients achieve temporary improvement in surface smoothness, mild roughness, and cosmetic brightness. The treatment may temporarily improve the appearance of selected congested pores, but it cannot permanently close pores. Improvement is usually cosmetic and temporary rather than a permanent correction of the underlying skin condition. It does not replace medical treatment and cannot remove deep acne scars or cure acne and melasma. Maintenance is optional and should be based on skin response rather than a fixed sales package.
While hydrodermabrasion is superficial, no cosmetic procedure is risk-free. Possible temporary side effects may include redness, mild swelling, tightness, tingling, sensitivity, flaking, or minor bruising from suction marks. Stronger suction does not automatically produce a deeper or better cleanse it may actually contribute to broken superficial vessels or worsened inflammation.
Device hygiene and compatible single-use components are essential even when the treatment does not use needles. Following treatment, strict aftercare is needed. Use a gentle cleanser, an appropriate moisturiser, and consistent broad-spectrum sun protection. Avoid aggressive exfoliation, scratching, or picking, and delay the use of active retinoids or acids until advised by the clinic. Contact the clinic promptly if you experience severe irritation, spreading redness, or signs of an allergic reaction.

No. Hydrodermabrasion is a general treatment category. HydraFacial is a trademarked system and should be named only when an authentic authorised device is used.
No. Hydrodermabrasion applies serum topically and does not create an injectable deposit beneath the skin.
The treatment mainly works at the surface. The depth and amount of topical product delivery depend on the device, formula and skin barrier and should not be exaggerated.
