Hydrodermabrasion - Rejuvinating Facials

Hydro Glow Facial in Santa Barbara

If your skin has been feeling a little dull, dry, or just not quite like itself, this is a beautiful place to start.

Our hydro glow facial at The Santa Barbara Spa is a gentle, deeply hydrating treatment designed to refresh your skin and bring back that natural, healthy glow. Using water-based exfoliation and nourishing serums, it smooths, clears, and hydrates—all without irritation or downtime.

It’s simple, effective, and one of our most loved treatments for a reason.

What Is Hydrodermabrasion?

Hydrodermabrasion is a soft, modern approach to exfoliation.

Instead of using anything harsh, we use a stream of water combined with customized serums to gently lift away dead skin cells while infusing hydration back into your skin at the same time.

Your skin is left feeling clean, smooth, and comfortably hydrated—never tight or overworked.

Benefits of Hydrodermabrasion

Enhanced Hydration: Infuse the skin with essential nutrients and moisture to restore balance and hydration.
Increased Oxygenation: Boost cellular metabolism and oxygen levels in the skin for improved circulation and vitality.
Reduced Inflammation: Calm and soothe irritated skin while reducing redness and inflammation.
Youthful Radiance: Stimulate collagen production and promote skin renewal for a firmer, more youthful complexion.
Detoxification: Purify the skin by removing toxins, pollutants, and impurities for a clearer, healthier appearance.
Immediate Results: Experience instant rejuvenation and a radiant glow after just one treatment.

FAQ about Hydrodermabrasion in Santa Barbara

What is a Hydrodermabrasion facial?

A Hydrodermabrasion facial is a non-invasive skin treatment that combines gentle exfoliation with deep hydration. The treatment removes dead skin cells while simultaneously infusing the skin with nourishing serums, leaving the complexion smoother, brighter, and more hydrated.

Is there downtime after a Hydrodermabrasion facial?

No. One of the biggest advantages of Hydrodermabrasion is that there is little to no downtime. Most clients leave the spa with refreshed, glowing skin and can return to normal activities immediately.

Does Hydrodermabrasion help with acne?

Yes. Hydrodermabrasion can help reduce acne by removing dead skin cells and excess oil that can clog pores. The treatment also delivers soothing serums that help calm inflammation and improve skin clarity.

Hydrodermabrasion with Oxygen Infusion

Oxygen infusion is an ideal treatment following hydrodermabrasion. Its soothing, cooling, and healing properties help to calm the skin after the invigorating effects of hydrodermabrasion. The best part is that the serums applied with the oxygen gun remain on the skin, rather than being wasted. This ensures that all the beneficial ingredients stay where they are needed most—on your skin!

I have been seeing Shelby for years and she’s an awesome aesthetician. She is very busy, but now she has a new aesthetician that no one seems to know about! Her name is Lisa and she’s just as professional as Shelby. Lisa knows her stuff!
