A 50-minute treatment covering analysis, cleanse, exfoliation, extractions, LED, boosters and SPF.
- Price
- $195
- Downtime
- None
- Sessions
- Single visit
Fifty minutes that covers analysis, cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, LED, boosters and SPF. No downtime at all, which makes it the one treatment here you can have on the day of an event rather than weeks before.
It is also the most useful first appointment for someone who has never had anything done. Nothing is injected, nothing peels, and you leave looking better than when you arrived.
What it helps with
- Dull, tired-looking skin
- Congested or enlarged pores
- Dryness and dehydration
- Rough surface texture
- Blackheads and congestion
Who it's for
- Anyone who wants to look better today rather than in a month
- Patients new to treatments who want somewhere gentle to start
- Anyone maintaining results between stronger treatments
This is a surface treatment. It will not change lines, scarring or volume, and anyone promising otherwise is overselling it. For those, Jyl will point you to the treatments that actually address them.
What to expect
Analysis
Jyl looks at what your skin needs that day, which is not always what it needed last time.
Cleanse and exfoliate
The surface is cleared, then exfoliated to reach the congestion underneath.
Extractions and boosters
Congestion is drawn out, then boosters chosen for your skin are applied, followed by LED.
Afterwards
SPF, and straight back to your day. No downtime, no redness, nothing to plan around.
After your treatment
Today
- Leave your skin alone for the rest of today.
- No makeup if you can manage it, no actives, and nothing exfoliating.
- Wear SPF, and keep wearing it.
- Drink some water.
- That is genuinely the whole list.
- There is no downtime with this one, which is the point of it.
After four weeks
- Your skin holds the result of a hydrafacial for about a month, which is why most people come monthly.

How Jyl approaches this
Jyl uses this as an honest entry point rather than an upsell. If someone new is nervous about injectables, starting here and seeing how a consultation actually goes is better for them than being talked into something larger on a first visit.
More about JylQuestions
Is there any downtime?
None. You can have this before an event the same day and look better for it.
How often should I have one?
Monthly suits most people, which is roughly how long the result holds.
Will it help my acne?
It clears congestion and that helps, but it is not an acne treatment on its own. For active acne Jyl will recommend something that addresses the cause.
What boosters do you use?
NEEDS APPROVAL: confirm which boosters Jyl carries and how she chooses between them.
