Common mistakes

• Over-exfoliating the skin, leading to irritation, dryness, and potentially even infections.
• Using the Hydra Facial machine too aggressively, causing micro-tearing of the skin and leading to scarring and prolonged recovery times.
• Failing to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the Hydra Facial machine and other tools, which can lead to suboptimal results and increased risk of skin irritation.

When to call a professional

• If you experience any severe skin irritation, such as redness, itching, or burning, during or after the treatment.
• If you are unsure about using the Hydra Facial machine or have any underlying skin conditions, such as acne, rosacea, or eczema.
• If you have sensitive skin or are prone to skin allergies, it’s best to consult with a professional esthetician before performing a Hydra Facial at home.
