Could I have a Hydrafacial 7-8 days after a diamond microdermabrasion facial?

Hi, we would not recommend Hydrafacial a week after microdermabrasion or diamond glow facial. Both of these facials require exfoliation. There is potential of over exfoliating the skin which can damage your skin barrier. It is recommended to wait 4 to 6 weeks in between treatments.

Hi, thank you for your question. If you are receiving a surgical diamond microdermabrasion by a plastic surgeon that is exfoliating down to the dermis layer of skin then you may want to wait 4-6 weeks to heal before doing Hydrafacial. Traditional microdermabrasion done by aestheticians exfoliates the upper outer layer of the epidermis and tends to leave skin dry after. Hydrafacial can then be performed after 1 week. Try the "Wet Diamond" tip from Hydrafacial where you still are exfoliating the outer most layer but also fusing concentrated super serums to aid in hydration minimizing irritation than traditional microderm. We recommend that you see a licensed esthetician who is a Hydrafacial specialist and a licensed for theses types of treatments.

Depending on the sensitivity of your skin, you may be able to receive a HydraFacial with a low peel solution such as 7.5% glycolic acid. It is always important to check in with your provider prior to receiving a treatment. HydraFacial, depending on the settings used, can be gentler than diamond microdermabrasion. HydraFacials are enzyme exfoliation, while microdermabrasion is manual exfoliation, both can be done based on your skin's needs and concerns.

A HydraFacial can be performed 2 weeks after recieving a microdermabrasion treament. This would help rehydrate your skin, and add a youthful glow!
