HydraFacial MD Elite

The tower-mounted HydraFacial platform that preceded the Syndeo, running the same vortex cleanse, extract and infuse protocol with LED and lymphatic handpieces. Still the workhorse in a lot of Irish clinics: treatments are quick, repeatable and easy to delegate to a therapist, and the consumable cost per face is predictable.
