A Hydrafacial™ is a non-invasive facial that cleanses, exfoliates, clears debris from pores, and infuses the skin with hydrating serums in one visit. It can be a good fit when your skin feels dry, congested, dull, or uneven and you want a smoother, brighter appearance without a lengthy recovery period.
In Grand Rapids, MI, Elite Plastic Surgery includes Hydrafacial among its skin care and facial treatments. The practice is led by board-certified plastic surgeons and has a dedicated aesthetic team with extensive skin care experience.
What Can a Hydrafacial Help Improve?
Hydrafacial can address concerns such as dryness, surface buildup, clogged pores, uneven tone, rough texture, and fine lines. Many people also choose Hydrafacial before an event because it can leave the skin looking smoother and more luminous with little to no downtime.
What Happens During a Hydrafacial?
The Hydrafacial handpiece moves through several skincare steps in the same appointment. First, we cleanse and exfoliate your skin, then treat it with a resurfacing solution. Gentle suction removes debris from your pores, then we apply hydrating ingredients. Depending on the facial you choose, your visit may also include advanced serums, LED light therapy, lymphatic drainage, or a lip or eye perk.
Which Hydrafacial Options Are Available?
Elite Plastic Surgery currently offers three Hydrafacial choices:
- Signature: A 45-minute facial centered on cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, and hydration.
- Elite Deluxe: A 60-minute facial that builds on the Signature service with advanced serums and LED light therapy.
- Elite Pro: A 75-minute facial that adds lymphatic drainage, advanced serums, LED light therapy, and a lip or eye perk.
Your aesthetic provider can help you choose the option that best fits your skin concerns, timing, and goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Often Can I Get a Hydrafacial?
Elite Plastic Surgery recommends Hydrafacial about every four weeks for ongoing skin maintenance. Your ideal interval may differ based on dryness, congestion, other skin services, and how your skin responds.
Is There Downtime After a Hydrafacial?
Hydrafacial generally involves little to no downtime, so most people can return to regular activities right away. Ask the aesthetic team what to expect if your skin is especially reactive.
Can I Get a Hydrafacial While Pregnant or Nursing?
Elite Plastic Surgery currently advises against Hydrafacial during pregnancy or nursing. Let the aesthetic team know if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding so they can discuss other skincare options.
Can Hydrafacial Be Combined With Other Skin Services?
You can sometimes pair it with or time it with other aesthetic services, but the right sequence depends on what you’re having done. Share your current skincare products and recent procedures, so the team can plan the timing.
