If you’ve been Googling “Hydrofacial Surrey” or “Microneedling for acne scars”, you’re not alone. At Sonder Aesthetics in Cloverdale, BC, we often get asked: “Which treatment is better for my skin — Hydrofacial or Microneedling?”
The truth is, both are incredible, but they work in very different ways. Here’s how to choose the one that fits your skin goals best.
💧 What Is a Hydrofacial?
A Hydrofacial is a deep-cleansing, hydrating facial treatment that uses gentle suction and water-based serums to exfoliate dead skin, clear out pores, and infuse hydration. It’s ideal if your skin is feeling dull, congested, or dehydrated.
Benefits of a Hydrofacial:
- Instant glow and smoothness
- Painless extraction of blackheads and buildup
- Safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin
- No downtime — perfect before events
✨ What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates your body’s natural collagen and elastin production, making it ideal for acne scars, texture issues, and overall skin rejuvenation.
Benefits of Microneedling:
- Smooths fine lines and wrinkles
- Fades acne scars and dark spots
- Boosts collagen for firmer skin
- Pairs well with boosters like exosomes or hyaluronic acid
So, Which One Should You Book?
| Concern | Go with Hydrofacial if… | Choose Microneedling if… |
|---|---|---|
| Dehydrated or dull skin | You want hydration + glow instantly | You’re okay with delayed results |
| Event prep | You want results now with no downtime | You don’t mind a bit of redness for a few days |
| Acne scarring / texture | You need gentle exfoliation | You want to treat the root cause (scarring, texture) |
| Pigmentation / aging | You’re starting skincare treatments | You want deeper, long-term change |
