Advanced Facials · No Downtime
HydraFacial
HydraFacial is the world’s most requested medical facial for a reason: in one session it deep-cleanses, gently exfoliates, extracts congestion and floods the skin with hydrating serums — using patented Vortex technology rather than harsh manual extraction.
In brief
NexGen Clinic offers HydraFacial in Cambridge — a medical-grade facial that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts and hydrates the skin in a single session using patented Vortex technology. There is no downtime; skin typically looks brighter immediately. Sessions take 30–45 minutes with prices from £120. It suits almost all skin types, including congested, dull or sensitive skin.
The NexGen approach
Considered, consultation-led hydrafacial
It is the ideal “skin health reset”: no needles, no downtime and visibly brighter skin the same day. We tailor each session’s serums and boosters to your skin at consultation, and many clients maintain results with a session every 4–6 weeks.
Who this may suit
- Congested, oily or breakout-prone skin
- Dull, tired or dehydrated skin needing an instant refresh
- Enlarged-looking pores and uneven texture
- Pre-event skin preparation with zero downtime
- Sensitive skin that finds traditional facials too harsh
Before anything else
What to expect at your consultation
A brief skin assessment lets us tailor the serums, boosters and intensity of your HydraFacial — and confirm whether a course, or a combination with treatments like skin boosters or microneedling, would serve your skin goals better.
Step by step
Your treatment journey
Cleanse & peel
Deep cleansing and gentle resurfacing to lift away dead skin cells.
Extract & hydrate
Painless Vortex suction removes congestion while hydrating serums are infused.
Fuse & protect
Antioxidants, peptides and hyaluronic acid saturate the skin for lasting glow.
Glow & go
No downtime — makeup can usually be applied shortly after if needed.
Looked after, afterwards
Aftercare guidance
- Skin may look slightly flushed for an hour or two at most
- Avoid strong actives (retinoids, acids) for 24–48 hours
- Use SPF daily — fresh skin deserves protection
- For best results, maintain with a session every 4–6 weeks
Written aftercare is provided at your appointment, and our team remains available if you have any questions while you settle.
HydraFacial questions
Frequently asked questions
How much is a HydraFacial in Cambridge?
NexGen HydraFacial sessions start from £120, with signature and booster-enhanced options quoted at consultation. Course pricing is available.
Is there any downtime?
No — HydraFacial is famous for having none. Most clients return straight to their day with brighter, hydrated skin.
How long does a session take?
Typically 30–45 minutes depending on the boosters included — it fits comfortably into a lunch break.
How often should I have one?
For cumulative skin-health benefits we recommend every 4–6 weeks, though a single session before an event delivers an immediate glow.
HydraFacial or microneedling?
HydraFacial refreshes and hydrates with zero downtime; microneedling stimulates collagen for texture and scarring over a course. Many plans alternate both — we will advise honestly at consultation.
