Aqua Therapy

Refresh, hydrate, and reveal your skin's natural glow.

Sometimes your skin doesn’t need drastic measures—it needs a deep, gentle reset. Aqua Therapy is a noninvasive facial treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, and hydrates in one relaxing session, leaving your skin feeling refreshed, replenished, and visibly brighter. It’s the perfect option for anyone wanting a noticeable glow-up with little to no downtime.

What Is Aqua Therapy?

Aqua Therapy is a noninvasive facial treatment that combines cleansing, gentle exfoliation, pore cleansing, and hydration in a single session.

Using water-based solutions and gentle suction, it helps remove dead skin cells, excess oil, and surface impurities while leaving the skin feeling refreshed and moisturized. Think of it as a deep clean and a drink of water for your skin—all at once.

Because the treatment is customizable, your provider can adjust the products and intensity to match your skin’s unique needs.

What Are the Benefits?

Aqua Therapy can improve the appearance of dull, dry, or congested skin. Benefits may include:

Results vary depending on your skin condition and the treatment selected. For many patients, Aqua Therapy works beautifully as a standalone refresh or as part of an ongoing skincare routine.

What Should I Expect During Treatment?

A handheld applicator is moved across the skin to cleanse, exfoliate, and deliver hydrating solutions.

You may feel a light suction or mild tingling sensation. The treatment is generally comfortable, and the products and intensity can be adjusted to your skin’s needs. Most patients find the experience relaxing—many describe it as a gentle massage for the face.

When Will I See Results?

Many patients notice softer skin and a refreshed glow soon after treatment.

These improvements are temporary, and periodic treatments—along with a consistent home skincare routine—can help maintain results. Your provider can recommend a treatment schedule that fits your skin goals and lifestyle.

Is There Any Downtime?

There is usually little to no downtime, and most patients can resume normal daily activities immediately.

Temporary redness or sensitivity may occur. Follow your provider’s aftercare instructions and use daily sunscreen to protect your skin and prolong your results.

How Should I Care for My Skin Afterward?

Proper aftercare helps you get the most out of your treatment:

Keep it simple. Use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer for the first 24–48 hours.
Hydrate generously. Your skin has just received a surge of moisture—lock it in with a quality moisturizer.
Wear sunscreen daily. Apply broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every morning, even on cloudy days.
Avoid harsh actives temporarily. Skip retinoids, exfoliating acids, and strong scrubs for a few days unless your provider says otherwise.
Skip intense heat. Avoid saunas, steam rooms, hot yoga, and strenuous workouts for 24 hours.
Don't pick or scrub. Let your skin settle naturally—no picking at any areas of congestion.
Follow your provider's instructions. They'll tailor aftercare to your specific treatment and skin type.
