HydraFacial

Mosaic Skin Studio offers HydraFacial using patented Vortex-Fusion technology that simultaneously cleanses, exfoliates, extracts congestion, and infuses serums tailored to the patient's skin concerns — all in approximately 30 minutes with no downtime. The Deluxe tier adds targeted boosters while the Platinum tier includes LED light therapy and lymphatic drainage for an elevated result. HydraFacial suits all skin types and tones and works as a standalone glow treatment, a pre-event preparation, or a monthly maintenance step between more intensive procedures.

HydraFacial at Mosaic Skin Studio delivers the internationally recognised Vortex-Fusion treatment in a boutique, medically supervised setting inside Pono Boutique in San Francisco's Glen Park neighbourhood. The patented technology uses a spiral tip to create a vortex effect that simultaneously dislodges debris from pores and delivers hydrating serums, making it one of the few facial treatments with essentially zero downtime and no visible peeling or redness for the vast majority of clients. The treatment sequence proceeds through four steps: Activ-4 serum for skin refinement and removal of dead skin cells; GlySal serum — a blend of glycolic and salicylic acid — for gentle exfoliation and loosening of pore congestion; Vortex-Extraction using a unique automated suction tip that removes blackheads and sebaceous filaments; and finally Antiox+ serum, a proprietary blend of antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, and peptides applied under the skin via Vortex-Fusion for immediate plumping and hydration. Mosaic offers three HydraFacial tiers. The Signature HydraFacial covers the four-step core protocol in approximately 30 minutes. The Deluxe HydraFacial adds a targeted booster serum — chosen at consultation from options addressing brightening, congestion, or peptide replenishment — and a hydrating lip treatment. The Platinum HydraFacial includes the Deluxe protocol plus super serums, CTGF booster, LED light therapy for collagen stimulation and inflammation reduction, and manual lymphatic drainage massage to reduce puffiness. Because the treatment is non-invasive and uses only suction and topical serums, HydraFacial is safe across all Fitzpatrick skin types, suitable for sensitive skin, and appropriate for clients who are not candidates for peels or microneedling. It is commonly booked as a pre-event glow treatment 24–48 hours before a special occasion, or as monthly skin maintenance between more intensive procedures at the studio.
