What is HydraFacial
What is HydraFacial?
HydraFacial is a skin care treatment that removes dead skin and impurities. It uses a combination of exfoliation and resurfacing to gently expose a new layer of skin. Then dirt and debris are removed from pores using a vortex suction. Finally, your skin will be saturated with HydraFacial’s antioxidant and peptide-rich moisturizing serum delivering an immediate glowing result.
The procedure is quick and easy, delivering long-term benefits in a 30 – 60 minute, painless treatment.
There is no downtime after a HydraFacial treatment at our Mishawaka medical spa. Patients can put on makeup and return to normal activities immediately after their treatment.
Candidates
HydraFacial Candidates
HydraFacial can be tailored to almost any individual’s needs. It’s well-suited for all different skin types, including individuals with sensitive skin.
During your consultation, the licensed aesthetician at The Centre, P.C. will do a skin evaluation and sensitivity test. They will discuss your needs and expectations with you, and will recommend whether this treatment is an option if you have an existing skin condition or disease.
HydraFacial is ideal for people who:
- Have an uneven skin tone
- Want to achieve greater elasticity and firmness
- Want better product penetration with no downtime
- Are looking to give their skin a vibrant and healthy glow
- Want to improve the texture of their skin
- Have oily or congested skin
- Have enlarged and clogged pores
Procedure Process
The Procedure Process
Your HydraFacial will be performed in a calm, spa-like setting at The Centre, P.C. in Mishawaka. The treatment typically takes 30–60 minutes and includes:
Cleansing and Exfoliation
Removes dead skin cells and uncovers a new layer of skin.
Gentle Acid Peel
Loosens dirt and debris from pores without irritation.
Vortex Extraction
Uses painless suction to clean out pores.
Hydration and Protection
Saturates the skin with antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid for long-lasting hydration.
Recovery and Aftercare
There is no downtime after a HydraFacial. Most patients return to daily activities—including wearing makeup—immediately after treatment.
Mild redness may occur post-procedure, and we recommend:
- Avoiding exfoliants, retinols, or retinoids for 3–5 days
- Applying broad-spectrum SPF daily to protect your refreshed skin
Results
Many patients see visibly smoother and more radiant skin after just one session. Continued HydraFacial treatments can improve:
- Skin hydration
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Dark spots and hyperpigmentation
- Overall skin clarity and texture
For best results, HydraFacial can be incorporated into your regular skincare routine.
Risks and Considerations
HydraFacial is a low-risk treatment, but some patients may experience:
- Mild redness immediately after treatment
- Skin purging, especially if congested pores are deeply cleansed
- Temporary sensitivity to active skincare products
Your aesthetician will guide you through any adjustments to your skincare routine to minimize these effects.
Skin Care Facts You Should Know
You may be surprised to learn just how important maintaining hydrated skin is. You may think simply washing your face with hot water will open your pores and allow your skin to soak up moisture. Unfortunately, this is a common misconception as hot water doesn’t actually change the size of your pores.
The truth is, your skin needs much more than a splash of hot water to stay healthy. It needs moisturizers that penetrate deeply to provide ultimate hydration. If you’re not convinced about whether HydraFacial is right for you, check out these facts on skin damage:
- Your skin produces one percent less collagen each year after age 20.
- Each time your skin regenerates, it’s less elastic and thinner and makes fine lines, wrinkles, and damaged blood vessels more visible.
- By age 18, the average person has received 23 percent of their lifetime sun exposure.
- Around 90 percent of visible skin changes like premature aging, freckles, discoloration and reduced collagen production are caused by sun exposure.
- Sunlight can have a negative reaction with medications, antibiotics, colognes, or perfumes, causing skin damage.
- UV rays are as strong on cloudy days as they are on sunny days.
- Sun protection, like a high SPF sunscreen, can help save your skin from sun damage and should be used regularly.

Dr. Downs and The Centre, P.C. staff are wonderful to work with
Dr. Downs and The Centre, P.C. staff are wonderful to work with for questions/concerns prior to and after surgery during recovery period. Dr. Downs consults with patient prior to surgery to confirm understanding of what results are important to them.
Additionally, Dr. Downs personally follows up after surgery to ensure that things are going well after discharge which I was extremely impressed by. The office/surgical center provides a more discrete and personalized patient environment with a separate door entrance for the follow-up appointment the day after surgery as well.

I’m so happy Dr Downs is who I decided to go to for this surgery.
It has been officially 5 week since my tummy tuck and breast lift. After losing 150lbs I knew I needed this done but never thought it would be possible. After meeting with Dr. Downs and his team my dreams started to seem like reality. Five weeks ago we completed 1 of my 2 suggested surgery’s. My recovery so far has been extremely easy with little to no pain. Dr. Downs has been just the best. He took his time and explained every part of my surgery and what I could expect. It was a pleasant surprise to wake up from surgery and find out he didn’t have to make the vertical incision down my stomach due to all the my weight loss, and lose skin. I’m so happy Dr. Downs is who I decided to go to for this surgery. Can’t wait for him to complete my project.
