HydraFacial Montreal — Medical-Grade Facial Treatments at Clinique Face MD
Learn More
A HydraFacial is a non-invasive facial treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts impurities, and hydrates the skin in one session. Every HydraFacial at Clinique Face MD is physician-supervised by Dr. Sami Moubayed, a head and neck surgeon practicing in facial plastic surgery, double board-certified (FRCSC, ABFPRS), with 3,500+ facial procedures and 100+ scientific publications.
This is medical-grade skin care in a physician-led Montreal clinic: medical equipment, professional-grade serums, real patient reviews, and HydraFacial before-and-after results shown below.
What's Included in the HydraFacial Face MD Treatment
The HydraFacial Face MD treatment is one comprehensive, personalized protocol. A single session includes the exfoliation, extraction, and serum-infusion steps along with the enhancements below, so your treatment is built around your skin.
Each HydraFacial treatment combines exfoliation, peeling, extraction, and serum infusion with a booster serum of your choice, luminotherapy (LED light therapy), lymphatic drainage, and a finishing hydrating mask.
These enhancements are included in your Montreal HydraFacial from the first visit.
The 3-Step Process: Cleanse, Extract & Hydrate
The HydraFacial treatment follows three steps, each preparing the skin for the next, which is why results are visible so quickly:
- Cleanse and peel: gentle exfoliation loosens dead skin cells and impurities with a blend of mild acids.
- Extract and hydrate: controlled suction clears debris and sebum from clogged pores while nourishing serums are infused into the skin.
- Infuse and protect: antioxidants, peptides, and hydrating serums support a smooth, radiant finish.
The HydraFacial is non-invasive with no downtime, and most patients notice immediate results in skin tone and hydration.
Active Ingredients & Booster Serums
The HydraFacial serums do much of the work, selected to match your skin during the consultation. Active ingredients include hyaluronic acid for deep hydration, salicylic acid and glycolic acid to exfoliate and clear clogged pores, plus antioxidants and peptides to nourish the skin barrier. Your booster serum targets one concern: fine lines, uneven skin tone, dark spots, or acne-prone skin.
Customize It: Neck, Chest, Lip & Scalp Add-Ons
The HydraFacial covers your face by default and can extend to other areas. Add-ons tailor a single visit to more than one treatment area:
- Neck and chest: extends exfoliation and hydration to the décolleté.
- Lip: a hydrating finish for the lip area.
- Scalp exfoliation: offered as a complement following a PRP session.
HydraFacial Benefits & the Skin Concerns It Treats
A HydraFacial addresses several skin concerns in one comfortable, well-tolerated session: it deeply cleanses pores, exfoliates, hydrates, and refines the appearance of the skin, with immediate results and no downtime. Benefits build over a series of sessions. A single HydraFacial treatment refreshes the skin; regular sessions maintain skin tone, hydration, and a radiant, glowing complexion.
Skin Concerns a HydraFacial Targets
The HydraFacial is customized to the concerns that matter most, and helps improve the appearance of:
- Clogged and enlarged pores
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Dull complexion and uneven skin tone
- Oily and congested skin, including acne-prone skin
- Dark spots and pigmentation
By combining exfoliation with deep hydration, the HydraFacial leaves the skin clearer and more even after a single visit.
Which Skin Types Are Best Suited for a HydraFacial
The HydraFacial suits most skin types: normal, combination, dry, and sensitive skin. Oily and acne-prone skin also benefit, since the treatment regulates sebum and clears congestion with a customized approach. Mature skin responds well too, as the added hydration softens the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Highly sensitive or reactive skin should be discussed during the consultation so the protocol can be adjusted.

HydraFacial Results at Our Montreal Clinic
Our patients have seen visible improvements in skin clarity and glow, including cases where the HydraFacial was combined with microneedling and exosomes to support a reduction in acne. Consistency and aftercare make a meaningful difference in HydraFacial results. Before-and-after photos on this page indicate the nature of the treatment; they do not constitute a guarantee of results, and outcomes vary from person to person.
What to Expect: Consultation, Session & Aftercare
Knowing what happens before, during, and after your HydraFacial helps you prepare and get the most from the treatment.
Your Consultation & Skin Assessment
Your HydraFacial begins with a skin assessment: a skincare professional reviews your medical history, evaluates your skin type and concerns, and discusses your goals. The HydraFacial treatment is then customized to your needs, and pre-treatment guidance is explained so your session is safe and suitable.
How to Prepare for Your Consultation
A little preparation makes your skin assessment more accurate. Before your HydraFacial consultation:
- Know your skin type and concerns, such as fine lines, acne, or dark spots.
- Cleanse your skin and remove makeup so the assessment is accurate.
- Be honest about your medical history, skin type, and sensitivities.
- Prepare your questions and allow enough time for the consultation.
During Your HydraFacial Session
The HydraFacial session is comfortable and well-tolerated, lasting 30 to 60 minutes depending on the treatment areas and add-ons. Because the HydraFacial is non-invasive with no downtime, most patients return to their day immediately, often with visible improvement in hydration and radiance.
Aftercare, Frequency & Maintenance
HydraFacial aftercare is straightforward: protect your skin from sun exposure and follow your skincare professional’s guidance. For maintenance, many people schedule a HydraFacial monthly or at each change of season to support natural cell renewal. For specific concerns, a series of sessions may be recommended.
How the HydraFacial Works & What It Is
A HydraFacial combines suction and infusion technology to extract impurities from the skin while delivering nutrients and antioxidants into the deeper layers of the epidermis. This combination of exfoliation and deep hydration gives the HydraFacial treatment its quick, visible effect. Hypoallergenic serums suitable for most skin types contain active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and salicylic acid, which hydrate, support cell renewal, and brighten the complexion, offering an alternative to more aggressive treatments.
Is a HydraFacial Safe? Side Effects & Contraindications
HydraFacial treatments are generally considered safe with few side effects, most of them temporary and mild. Possible short-term side effects include redness, tingling, mild dryness, or a feeling of tightness, which usually settle within hours to a day. Tell your technician about any allergies or sensitivities beforehand. The HydraFacial is not suitable during pregnancy, and an active skin infection or certain recent acne treatments may be a contraindication, which is one reason the consultation matters.
Frequently Asked Questions About HydraFacial

How much does a HydraFacial cost in Montreal?
The cost of a HydraFacial in Montreal depends on the treatment areas and any add-ons you choose. The HydraFacial Face MD protocol includes a booster serum, LED light therapy, lymphatic drainage, and a hydrating mask. Current pricing is on our price list, and your consultation includes a tailored estimate.
How long does a HydraFacial session take?
A HydraFacial session usually takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas treated and any add-ons you choose. The treatment is non-invasive with no downtime, so most patients return to their normal activities right away, often with visibly hydrated skin the same day.
How often should I get a HydraFacial?
Most people benefit from a HydraFacial once a month or at each change of season to maintain results. For concerns such as congestion or uneven tone, a closer series of sessions may be suggested. Your skincare professional recommends a frequency based on your skin.
Is a HydraFacial painful?
Most patients find a HydraFacial comfortable and well-tolerated, with a light suction sensation and no downtime afterward. Mild, temporary redness can occur but usually settles within hours, which is why the treatment suits sensitive skin when customized appropriately.
What treatments can be combined with a HydraFacial?
Several complementary treatments pair well with a HydraFacial to support a broader skin plan, and your team can advise on what suits your goals.
Microneedling
Microneedling stimulates the skin’s renewal process and is often combined with a HydraFacial to support texture and clarity. In some cases our patients have paired it with exosomes and HydraFacial together to help reduce the appearance of acne over a series of sessions.
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning removes fine surface hair and dead skin cells, leaving a smooth base. Performed alongside a HydraFacial, it can enhance the exfoliation step and help serums absorb more evenly, supporting a brighter, smoother finish.
Facial Peeling
A facial peel uses professional-grade acids to encourage cell renewal and address concerns such as dull skin and pigmentation. It is generally spaced separately from a HydraFacial, and your team will plan the timing so the skin is not over-exfoliated.
Exosome Treatment
Exosome treatments support skin regeneration and are sometimes combined with microneedling and HydraFacial in a single plan. This combination is used to help improve overall skin quality, and the protocol is tailored to your concerns during the consultation.
