How the dual treatment works
The treatment pairs a Hydrafacial‑style deep cleanse and extraction with a FactorFive corrective peel in a single visit. The initial phase clears surface oils, debris, and deep congestion to expose fresher skin, then the corrective peel resurfaces to address rough texture and visible aging signs. Combining both steps prepares the skin for more consistent, even results.
A clinician begins with a skin assessment then performs the hydra‑cleanse to remove buildup and open pores, followed by the FactorFive corrective application. The two steps are calibrated to each client’s condition; results depend on baseline skin health, prior treatments, and adherence to aftercare. This service is recommended after an initial facial visit and is scheduled for 90 minutes at $275.
Typical skin response timeline
Most clients notice a refreshed finish immediately, with possible mild redness and small amounts of flaking over the following days. Because the peel component resurfaces the skin, some temporary texture changes can occur as older cells shed. Overall downtime is minimal compared with deeper resurfacing procedures, making this option practical for professionals with busy schedules.
Seasonality affects timing: San Jose clients often book in March or in October and November to address post‑summer damage or prepare for autumn. How long redness or flaking lasts is individual; careful sun protection and following aftercare guidance reduce visible recovery and help the resurfacing phase produce clearer, more even tone.
Who benefits most locally
