HydraFacial MD®

Talk about a glow! An amazing treatment with a loyal following, we are thrilled to offer HydraFacial MD. We were searching for a procedure that could deliver immediate results, yet allow for long-term benefits, suitable for a dermatology office—this is it!

HydraFacial MD combines hydradermabrasion exfoliation, a chemical peel, painless extractions, special delivery of antioxidants, and intense hydration—all in one procedure. It is appropriate for all skin types and targets sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles, dehydration and/or oily and congested skin. And yes, it can easily be added to your acne routine. Your skin will feel brighter and softer—you may not even feel like putting make up on!

(Please note: the more advanced HydraFacial MD is only available at physician offices, not to be confused with HydraFacial.)

glowMD Peel (30 minutes)

A blend of some of my favorite ingredients—TCA, salicylic acid, azelaic acid, and retinol—we love this easy, minimal downtime peel and we know you will too! You may experience 2-3 days of mild redness and dryness but it comes with a month-long skin care kit to soothe, prolong, and enhance the peel’s effects.

glowMD Peel for the Neck + Décolletage (30 minutes)

Combat dark spots, rough texture, and wrinkles on the often-neglected neck and décolletage with this amazing blend of natural exfoliators, including salicylic acid and arbutin. Expect a couple days of mild redness and dryness, but a great home kit is included that will last about a month and keep your skin looking bright and smooth.

Gloss + Go Peel (30 minutes)

A unique blend of lactic acid and urea, you’ve never had a treatment like this before. Perfect for an immediate glow, this hydrating peel is perfect for same day events. There is no “peeling” with this peel. Yes, sometimes peels can actually hydrate the skin. We suggest adding on Red LED Light Therapy.

House Favorites Add-Ons:

Blue LED Light Therapy For acne and breakouts.
Red LED Light Therapy For anti-aging and collagen stimulation.
Arbutase For pigment or dark spots. Please note: you may experience redness/peeling.
