Gentle, restorative treatment for reactive and dehydrated skin in Archway. The Hydro Infusion Facial uses SkinBase technology to rebuild your skin barrier, flood skin with moisture and calm persistent redness — without aggravating sensitive skin.
Book a TreatmentThe skin barrier is your first line of defence — it keeps moisture in and irritants out. When it is damaged, the skin loses the ability to regulate itself and becomes perpetually reactive. Common signs include:
Persistent redness or flushing that does not settle
Tight, uncomfortable sensation even after moisturising
Stinging or burning when applying skincare products
Reactivity to weather changes, stress or hormonal shifts
Skin that never feels settled or balanced
Barrier damage can be caused by over-exfoliation, stripping cleansers, environmental stress, hormonal changes or simply a genetic predisposition to sensitivity. The key is to repair the barrier — not fight symptoms with more products.
The Hydro Infusion Facial is specifically designed for skin that needs deep restoration — not more stimulation:
SkinBase hydration infusion
Medical-grade technology delivers an intensive surge of moisture deep into the skin — restoring hydration levels that topical products alone cannot reach.
Barrier-repair actives
Ceramides, peptides and soothing ingredients work together to rebuild the lipid barrier, reduce trans-epidermal water loss and strengthen the skin's natural defences.
Anti-redness and calming
Carefully selected ingredients calm inflammation, reduce visible redness and support the skin's microbiome — without aggravating even the most reactive skin types.
Hydro Infusion Facial
Dehydrated / Sensitive
SkinBase hydration therapy that floods skin with intense moisture and nourishing actives. Perfect for reactive, sensitised or chronically dehydrated skin types.

Persistent redness and reactivity are usually signs of a compromised skin barrier. When the barrier is weakened — through over-exfoliation, harsh products, environmental stress, hormonal changes or simply genetics — the skin becomes reactive to things it would normally tolerate without issue. Addressing the barrier itself, rather than chasing individual symptoms, is the most effective approach.
The skin barrier repairs most effectively when given intensive moisture-locking ingredients such as ceramides, hyaluronic acid and peptides, combined with reduced aggression from actives and exfoliation. The Hydro Infusion Facial delivers a concentrated dose of barrier-supportive ingredients using SkinBase technology, giving skin the targeted reset it needs to begin recovering.
Dry skin is a skin type — it produces less sebum and tends to feel rough and tight throughout the day. Dehydrated skin is a condition — any skin type, including oily skin, can become dehydrated due to lifestyle factors, weather, diet or product choices. Signs include tightness, dullness and fine lines that appear when the skin is pressed. The Hydro Infusion Facial is effective for both.
For maintaining a healthy skin barrier, monthly treatments are ideal. If your skin is acutely reactive or dehydrated, starting with two or three sessions spaced two to three weeks apart can produce a more significant initial improvement before moving into monthly maintenance. Aleksandra will recommend a plan based on what your skin needs.
