Personalized Skin Therapy at Heights Wellness Retreat

At Massage Heights Ingersoll, HydraFacial isn’t a one-time splurge. It’s a core part of how our clients in Des Moines invest in their skin and their overall well-being.

HydraFacial Service Tiers

We offer three HydraFacial options designed to meet different goals, schedules, and levels of skin concern. Each tier includes up to ten minutes of consultation and dressing time.

Signature HydraFacial
A 30-minute treatment that deeply cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, and hydrates using advanced serums packed with antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid. It’s an efficient option for clients who want radiant-looking skin without a lengthy appointment.

Deluxe HydraFacial
At 60 minutes, this tier adds targeted boosters to address specific skin concerns alongside LED Light Therapy, which can help reduce visible signs of aging. It’s a step up for clients ready to go deeper on their skin health goals.

Platinum HydraFacial
The 90-minute Platinum experience opens with lymphatic drainage before moving through all the benefits of the Deluxe tier plus a targeted booster and LED Light Therapy. It’s the most comprehensive HydraFacial option we offer.

Why Des Moines Clients Choose Heights Wellness Retreat

Many providers offering HydraFacial in Des Moines treat it as a clinical procedure. We treat it as part of your wellness routine. At Heights Wellness Retreat, HydraFacial sits alongside therapeutic massage, other facial services, and wellness enhancements all under one roof, so you can pair treatments in a single Retreat visit rather than scheduling across multiple locations.

Our skin therapists use Dermalogica® products for select facial elevations and work with each client to choose serums and techniques matched to individual skin needs, not a preset protocol. That’s the difference a personalized consultation makes.

How HydraFacial Works

The treatment follows three steps, each building on the last.

Step 1: Cleanse and Exfoliate
A patented handheld device gently sweeps away dead skin cells, excess oil, and surface impurities, revealing fresher skin and preparing it for what follows.

Step 2: Extract
Using gentle, painless suction, the device clears blackheads, whiteheads, and congestion from pores without any manual squeezing. Many clients describe the sensation as mild and surprisingly comfortable.

Step 3: Hydrate and Infuse
Serums formulated with antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid are infused deep into the skin to deliver lasting hydration, support barrier repair, and protect against environmental damage. When the session ends, there’s typically no redness or recovery period. Clients can return to their day.

Who Is HydraFacial Right For?

HydraFacial is designed for many skin types and tones, including sensitive skin. The treatment is customizable enough to address a wide range of concerns: dryness, fine lines, uneven texture, enlarged pores, oily or breakout-prone skin, dullness, and early signs of aging. Clients who’ve found other resurfacing treatments too harsh often respond well to HydraFacial because the process is gentle and non-abrasive. Whether you’re just beginning a professional skincare routine or looking to maintain results you’ve already built, HydraFacial fits where you are.

Facial Elevations & Add Ons

Our skin therapists can customize your session with Facial Elevations and Add Ons to target specific concerns more precisely. We encourage you to confirm which elevations are available at our Retreat when booking. Options may include:

Gua Sha: A traditional technique using a smooth stone tool to massage facial contours, promote lymphatic drainage, improve circulation, and relieve tension for a naturally toned, sculpted look.
Skin Enriching: Gentle ultrasonic technology that helps Dermalogica® products penetrate more deeply, addressing fine lines, dark circles, firmness, and acne.
Skin Refining: Gentle high-frequency currents that target acne-causing bacteria, support the healing of existing breakouts, reduce the appearance of scarring, and enhance circulation.
Skin Purifying: Gentle therapeutic suction that loosens congestion and supports the skin’s natural renewal process.
IonActive Serums: Dermalogica® professional-strength concentrated serums that deliver potent active ingredients deep into the skin to address concerns from aging to sensitivity.
Microdermabrasion: Diamond-tip exfoliation that removes dull surface cells, evens skin tone, diminishes the appearance of fine lines, reduces the appearance of mild acne scars, and addresses hyperpigmentation.
LED Light Therapy: FDA-cleared light technology tailored to your skin: red light supports collagen production and diminishes the appearance of wrinkles; blue light targets acne-causing bacteria to help reduce breakouts. No downtime required.
Pro Power Peel: A gentle yet powerful Dermalogica® professional peel, customized to your needs, that accelerates cell renewal to address aging, blemishes, fine lines, and uneven pigmentation.

HydraFacial Perk

For clients who want to extend their treatment to the lip and eye area, we offer HydraFacial Perk add-ons using patented roller-flex technology. Each Perk session includes an in-office treatment and a take-home serum to continue supporting your results between appointments.

HydraFacial Perk Lip
Revitalizes lips with peppermint oil and peony extract, leaving them refreshed, hydrated, and lightly plumped.

HydraFacial Perk Eye
Brightens and firms the outer eye area using horse chestnut seed extract and arnica flower extract for a toned, hydrated finish.

What HydraFacial Delivers

Three benefits stand out across many skin types:

Deep cleansing and pore refinement: Vortex technology removes impurities, dead skin cells, and excess oils, unclogging and refining pores for a smoother, more even-toned complexion.
Intense hydration and nourishment: Serums containing hyaluronic acid, peptides, and antioxidants plump the skin, soften the appearance of fine lines, and restore a healthy, radiant glow.
Immediate results with no downtime: Unlike chemical peels or more aggressive resurfacing treatments, HydraFacial can deliver visible improvement after a single session with little to no recovery period.

When You’ll See Results and How Often to Return

Many clients notice smoother, brighter skin, clearer pores, and a more even skin tone immediately after their first session. That’s part of why HydraFacial has become one of the most requested non-invasive facial treatments available.

For ongoing skin health, a monthly session is a common maintenance cadence. Clients managing acne-prone skin may benefit from more frequent visits. Over time, regular sessions can support improvements in texture, tone, and hydration beyond what a single appointment can achieve on its own.

HydraFacial as Part of Your Wellness Routine

At Heights Wellness Retreat, we’re built around the idea that wellness works best when it’s consistent. Membership plans make it easier to incorporate regular HydraFacial sessions and massage therapy into your life without treating them as occasional luxuries. Clients can also combine a HydraFacial with massage or other wellness services in a single visit, making the most of their time at the Retreat.

Skin health is part of whole-body wellness. We’re here to help you treat it that way.

Skin Concerns HydraFacial Can Address

HydraFacial is fully customizable, which means it can be adapted to target a wide range of specific concerns. Our skin therapists select serums and techniques based on what your skin actually needs, identified during your pre-session consultation.

Common concerns the treatment addresses include:

Acne and breakout-prone skin
Enlarged or congested pores
Blackheads and whiteheads
Dehydration and dullness
Uneven skin tone and texture
Fine lines and early signs of aging
Hyperpigmentation
Dry or rough skin

Because the process is gentle and non-abrasive, it’s also a good choice for clients with sensitive skin or those who’ve found other resurfacing treatments too harsh.

The Technology and Serums Behind HydraFacial

The results come from what goes into the skin as much as what gets removed. HydraFacial serums are formulated with antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid. This combination is chosen to hydrate, nourish, and protect the skin throughout and after treatment. Hyaluronic acid draws moisture into the skin and helps plump the appearance of fine lines. Peptides support skin structure and repair. Antioxidants protect against environmental damage that accumulates daily.

For clients choosing select elevations, Dermalogica® products play an important role. Skin Enriching uses ultrasonic technology to drive Dermalogica® formulas more deeply into the skin, while IonActive Serums deliver professional-strength concentrated actives targeting specific concerns from aging to sensitivity.

HydraFacial vs. Traditional Facials and Resurfacing Treatments

Traditional facials rely primarily on manual techniques. HydraFacial uses a patented vortex device that simultaneously cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, and infuses serums in a single continuous motion. This offers a more consistent approach than manual methods alone.

Chemical peels and microdermabrasion deliver exfoliation too, but through processes that can leave skin red or irritated and require recovery time. HydraFacial achieves exfoliation through gentle liquid-based hydrodermabrasion without those side effects. Clients can apply makeup and resume normal activities immediately, and many describe the treatment as relaxing throughout, with a gentle cooling sensation rather than any discomfort.

Aftercare and What to Expect Post-Treatment

There’s very little required of you after a HydraFacial. Makeup can go on right away, and you won’t need to adjust your schedule or plan for redness. Our skin therapists provide personalized aftercare recommendations at the end of your session, including guidance on products that support healthy, freshly treated skin.

In the days that follow, your skin typically looks and feels its best. Gentle, non-irritating skincare products help maintain that. If you have known sensitivities or are on any active skincare regimens, share those details during your pre-session consultation so your skin therapist can tailor their guidance accordingly.

Licensed Skin Therapists Who Personalize Every Session

Every HydraFacial at our Retreat begins with a one-on-one consultation. Our licensed skin therapists take the time to understand your current skin concerns, your goals, and any sensitivities before selecting the serums, techniques, and elevation options that fit you. That means no two sessions are identical, because no two clients are.

This personalized approach is central to who we are at Heights Wellness Retreat. Our skin therapists bring both training and genuine care to every appointment, which is why so many clients return month after month rather than treating their visit as a one-time event.

Preparing for Your HydraFacial Appointment

No special preparation is required before your visit. You can arrive as you normally would. That said, coming without heavy makeup gives your skin therapist a clearer look at your skin during the consultation, which helps them personalize the session more accurately.

Be ready to share your current skincare routine, any sensitivities, and your specific concerns. If you’ve had other resurfacing treatments recently, mention that as well so your skin therapist can adjust the session appropriately. The consultation is where your treatment takes shape, so the more you share, the better.

HydraFacial and Sensitive Skin

Sensitive skin is one of the most common reasons clients hesitate before trying a professional facial treatment. HydraFacial is designed to be gentle, and our skin therapists can adjust serum selection and device settings to match your skin’s tolerance. There can be little to no redness, irritation, or recovery period. For clients who’ve had negative reactions to other methods, that can make all the difference.

Bring any concerns about sensitivity to your pre-session consultation. Your skin therapist can factor them into every decision made during your appointment.

HydraFacial Within Our Broader Facial Services Menu

HydraFacial is one of several facial services available at Heights Wellness Retreat. We also offer Clear Skin Facials, Sensitive Skin Facials, Essential Facials, and Anti-Aging Facials, giving clients and their skin therapists a range of options to build a skincare plan that makes sense over time.

HydraFacial is particularly well suited for clients who want immediate, visible results without any recovery time. For clients managing ongoing acne or heightened sensitivity, other facial services at the Retreat may complement HydraFacial within a longer-term skincare plan. Your skin therapist can help you find the right combination during a consultation.
