After a holiday filled with sun exposure and outdoor activities, my skin was in desperate need of some TLC. The sun, travel, and disrupted routines left my skin looking dull, dry, and far from its best.

I knew a facial was the solution, but I wasn’t sure which one would give me the deep hydration and revitalisation my skin needed.

That’s when I turned to Freia Aesthetics, a trusted name in skincare, to try their popular HydraFacial treatment. Known for its ability to deeply cleanse, hydrate, and revive tired skin, HydraFacial seemed like the ideal choice to bring back my glow.

Read on to find out how this HydraFacial transformed my skin and why it might be the perfect pick-me-up for anyone looking to bring back their glow!

Freia Aesthetics HydraFacial: Step-by-Step Experience

Freia Aesthetics Consultation

At Freia Aesthetics, the consultation was the perfect first step to reviving my skin. My aesthetician, Erynn, thoroughly assessed my skin using the 7th generation Visia® machine.

This advanced tool, used during the consultation, delivers life-like images in just 20 minutes, revealing the true state of my skin.

The machine also reveals your actual age and current skin age, adding a deeper insight into your skin’s health and needs. I was both surprised and impressed to find out that my skin age is actually younger than my real age—proof that my skincare routine was paying off!

From hydration levels to pigmentation and pore congestion, it offers a precise diagnosis that helps create a truly personalised skincare plan. And I was shocked at my skin condition!

After examining my skin’s condition post-holiday, Erynn identified areas needing hydration and deep cleansing.

Given the dehydration and dullness, it was crystal clear that my skin would benefit most from the Aqua Boost HydraFacial. This treatment was tailored to deeply hydrate and revive my skin, making it the ideal choice to bring back my glow.

Plus, I appreciated that she wasn’t quick to recommend a one-size-fits-all treatment!

Freia Aesthetics Aqua Boost HydraFacial Steps

The Aqua boost HydraFacial is one of Freia Aesthetics’ best selling facials and now I know why. The treatment focuses on deep-cleaning pores, removing dead skin cells, and boosting hydration—all without any irritation or downtime.

Breathing Technique with Essential Oil – The treatment begins with inhaling calming essential oils to help you relax and focus on your breathing.
Double Cleansing – The aesthetician double cleansed my skin, thoroughly removing impurities and prepping it for deeper treatment.
Hydra Machine Deep Cleanse – The Hydra machine gently exfoliated my dead skin cells, revealing a fresher complexion.
Hydra Machine Extraction – It also removes impurities from pores with a painless gentle suction.
Steam – They applied warm steam to open up my pores, making it easier to extract any impurities.
Extraction – I felt a bit of pressure during the extraction process as they gently removed blackheads and congestion from my skin.
Toner: After that, a refreshing toner was applied to balance my skin’s pH and prep it for the next steps.
Hydra Machine Hydration Process – In this step, the Hydra machine delivers antioxidants and hyaluronic acid, deeply hydrating and nourishing my skin.
Face Point Massage – I enjoyed the soothing facial massage from my aesthetician, which relieved tension and promoted circulation for a healthy glow.
Exquisite Dual Hydration Mask – Applied for 15 minutes, this mask infuses extra hyaluronic acid for deep hydration and marine collagen with active collagen peptides, targeting anti-ageing to boost collagen synthesis and vital protein for skin elasticity.
Neck Relaxing Massage – I loved the gentle neck massage, which added to my relaxation and helped promote lymphatic drainage.
Aftercare – Finally, they provided me with personalised aftercare tips to help me maintain the benefits of the treatment at home.

Here’s My Review of Freia Aesthetics Aqua Boost HydraFacial

I had a fantastic experience with Freia Aesthetics’ Aqua Boost HydraFacial, and here’s what made it stand out. My therapist was exceptionally skilled, creating a sense of comfort and calm from the very start.

She guided me through each stage with clear explanations, so I always knew what to expect. Best of all, I noticed visible improvements right after the session, far exceeding my expectations.

My Verdict? Highly Recommended!

After just one session, I’ve noticed a real difference. My skin feels deeply cleansed, hydrated, and more resilient, making it the perfect post-holiday pick-me-up.

And what I loved most about this facial was that they ended it with a layer of sunscreen, showing they genuinely care about your skin. I was pleasantly surprised because this was the first facial where I experienced them applying sunscreen as the final step.

Before wrapping up the session, my aesthetician also advised me to avoid using active-ingredient skincare products for three days. This is to give my skin a chance to rest and fully absorb the benefits of the treatment without any potential irritation.

I’m surprised that Freia Aesthetics’ Aqua Boost HydraFacial delivered so much in 75 minutes.

The Difference Between HydraFacial and Chemical Peels

HydraFacials and chemical peels both improve skin texture, but they work differently. HydraFacials use a vacuum-powered tip to deeply cleanse and hydrate the skin, combining exfoliation with a boost of hydrating serums.

In contrast, chemical peels use acids to remove the top skin layers, which can sometimes lead to dryness or redness and may not suit all skin tones.

HydraFacials are safe for all skin, offering a gentler approach with zero downtime, while chemical peels can be more effective for certain issues but may require recovery time.

For a balanced, hydrating glow, HydraFacials stand out.

How Many HydraFacial Treatments Are Needed to See Results?

Most people see visible results immediately after just one HydraFacial (just like I did), with skin appearing more hydrated, smooth, and radiant.

However, for longer-lasting improvements, such as reduced fine lines, clearer pores, and even skin tone, a series of treatments is recommended.

Bare in mind, the duration of HydraFacial treatments also depends on your skin type and concerns. Generally, getting one treatment per month for three to six months is recommended to achieve the best results.

Can HydraFacial Be Combined with Other Skincare Treatments?

While HydraFacial is a great addition to your basic facial routine, you can definitely pair it with other treatments to enhance your skincare results.

You can combine HydraFacial with treatments like botox, dermal fillers, or laser for even better outcomes, as it helps prep your skin for these procedures by deeply hydrating and exfoliating.

But we urge you to consult with a specialist like at Freia Aesthetics before booking multiple treatments to ensure the treatments are tailored to your skin type and concerns. They can help create a customised plan that targets your specific needs and maximises the benefits of each treatment.
