Skin quality

Hydro-microdermabrasion, also known as HydraFacial, is an in-clinic facial treatment that brings cleansing, exfoliation and hydration together in a single session, and adds diamond-tip microdermabrasion to renew the surface of the skin. It is aimed at dull skin, a lack of radiance, a feeling of skin that never looks quite clean, or a build-up of impurities, and it also suits anyone looking for a maintenance routine or wanting to prepare their skin before an event. At Nova Center (Les Corts, Barcelona) the protocol is adapted by levels and we work with real facial equipment such as the Hydra Beauty system. It does not promise a specific result or replace daily skincare: the intensity and frequency are set at a prior assessment, according to your skin.

What this page helps you decide

This page helps you understand what the treatment addresses, when it may fit and when another option may suit you better. It is not a diagnosis: suitability is always confirmed in a prior assessment, where your goals, your skin and your history are reviewed.

When it may not be the first option

  • You are looking for an immediate change equivalent to surgery.
  • You expect a fixed or assured result.
  • There is active irritation, infection or lesions in the area right now.
  • You are pregnant or breastfeeding (depending on the treatment).
  • You have recently had other procedures in the area that should be assessed first.

Questions for your assessment

  • Is this treatment suitable for my goal and my area?
  • Which treatments have I had before and how might they matter?
  • Do I have sensitivities or history I should mention?
  • What downtime would this involve in my case?
  • Over what timeframe could progress be assessed?
  • What maintenance or follow-up may be needed?
  • How is the price planned for my case?
  • Is a direct booking or a prior assessment the right route?

Planning combinations

In some cases several treatments may be planned together or in stages. Whether this is appropriate, and in what order, always depends on the prior assessment. We do not offer fixed packages or predefined protocols on this page.

Frequently asked questions

What is hydro-microdermabrasion (HydraFacial), and how is it different from a facial cleanse?

Hydro-microdermabrasion, or HydraFacial, is a facial treatment that combines cleansing, exfoliation and hydration in a single session and includes diamond-tip microdermabrasion. Compared with a classic facial cleanse, it adds that surface renewal and more complete hydration within the same procedure; suitability is assessed according to your skin.

How many sessions are recommended, and how often?

It can be done as a one-off, for example before an event, or within a maintenance routine with spaced sessions. There is no fixed number that suits everyone: the number of sessions and an indicative frequency are decided at your assessment, based on your skin and your goals.

Does the session hurt? What does it feel like?

You will feel it working on the skin. Most people describe a gentle suction and a slight roughness from the diamond tip, with tolerable discomfort during the session. If your skin is reactive, let us know so we can adjust the protocol's intensity.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

The protocol is adapted by levels, so it can often be tailored to sensitive skin, but every skin is different. If you have rosacea, active breakouts, wounds or a skin condition, we assess it beforehand to confirm the treatment is appropriate; it does not replace care from a healthcare professional when your case calls for it.

What aftercare do I need?

After the session your skin may look slightly flushed for a few hours. We suggest moisturising, using sun protection and avoiding harsh exfoliants, saunas or intense sun exposure over the following days. These are general guidelines; we give you specific aftercare for your skin at the end of the session.

How much does it cost, and how is the price decided?

The price depends on the protocol level and on whether you choose a one-off session or a maintenance plan, so it is confirmed at your prior assessment. There we review your skin and your goals before suggesting a plan and an indicative quote, with no obligation.

How is it different from a deep-cleansing facial?

Both include cleansing and hydration, but here the emphasis is on diamond-tip microdermabrasion, which renews the surface and aims for radiance. A facial focused on extracting impurities and decongesting the pores works mainly on oily or blackhead-prone skin. If your priority is that extraction, at the assessment we can point you towards that kind of cleanse; if you are after renewal and glow, this one tends to fit better.

Do I need a prior assessment?

We recommend an assessment to confirm the treatment is suitable and define the protocol for your case.

Can I expect a specific result?

Results vary from person to person. We do not promise a specific result.
