About This Treatment

What is Aqua Facial?

The AquaFacial is a multi-step, medical-grade facial treatment that uses a specialized vortex-fusion handpiece to simultaneously exfoliate dead skin cells and infuse the skin with potent serums tailored to your goals.

Unlike traditional facials, the AquaFacial is gentle enough for nearly all skin types — including sensitive skin and delivers immediate, visible results with no redness or recovery time needed. Most patients leave glowing and schedule their next visit before they even get home.

At Express Med Spa, every AquaFacial is preceded by a brief skin consultation with one of our nurse practitioners, who will customize the serum selection based on your skin concerns and current condition.

Treatment Pricing

Serum add-ons available at time of booking. Packages of 3 or 6 sessions also offered at a discounted rate.

Who I'ts For

Good Candidates? Is This Right for You?

AquaFacial is ideal for patients with dull, congested, or dehydrated skin who want real results without downtime. It works across a wide range of skin types and concerns, from oily and acne-prone to dry and mature skin.
