You just had your Hydrafacial and your skin is glowing – now it’s time to make that glow last! Post-treatment care is just as important as the facial itself. At Venus Spa, I always want my clients to walk out with confidence and the right knowledge to protect their investment.
Here are 5 simple but powerful things you should do after your Hydrafacial.
1. Skip Makeup for the Rest of the Day
Your pores are clean and open. Let them breathe!
Avoid applying makeup for at least 4-6 hours post-treatment. This prevents product buildup and allows your skin to fully absorb the nourishing serums from the facial.
2. Use Gentle Skincare Only
Put away the acids, scrubs, and retinol.
For the first 24 hours, use only gentle, hydrating products. Stick with a soothing cleanser, a hyaluronic acid serum, and a calming moisturizer.
Letizia’s Tip: Avoid anything with active ingredients like glycolic acid, salicylic acid, or Vitamin C for 1-2 days.
3. Hydrate Inside & Out
Drink lots of water and apply hydrating products.
After your Hydrafacial, your skin acts like a sponge -soaking up all the hydration you
give it. Keep drinking water and reapply a hydrating serum to extend the results.
4. Hydrate Inside & Out
Protect your glow from sun damage.
Even on cloudy days or if you’re indoors, your skin is more sensitive to UV after exfoliation. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher every day.
Letizia’s Pick: A tinted SPF with antioxidants gives you protection + glow in one step.
5. Avoid Heat, Sweat & Gym for 24 Hours
Your skin is vulnerable right now.
Skip the steam room, sauna, hot yoga, and intense workouts for a full day. Heat and sweat can irritate your skin and interfere with healing and absorption.
Final Thoughts
A Hydrafacial gives immediate results – but what you do after matters just as much. Follow these 5 steps and you’ll keep your skin glowing, plump, and clear for days (or weeks) after your treatment.
I always recommend a Hydrafacial once a month for consistent results, especially if you’re working on acne, pigmentation, or anti-aging.
