Why Does Facial Puffiness Happen?
Facial puffiness is typically caused by stagnant lymph flow, fluid buildup, or underlying inflammation. Some common contributors:
What we solve
De-Puffing Toolkit
Most guests see best results combining HydraFacial® with masseter Botox® for muscle-induced puffiness.
Treatment Journey
Consultation + Facial Mapping – we assess whether puffiness is from fluid, fat, or muscles
Custom Plan – in-clinic sculpting paired with at-home anti-inflammatory care
Treatment Progression – sessions spaced 2 – 4 weeks apart to allow lymph flow reset and skin re-sculpting
Maintenance – once puffiness is under control, we shift to monthly facials or seasonal collagen-boosting treatments.
Results & Expectations
Immediate de-puffing after lymphatic facial or massage
Slimmer contours after 2 – 3 Botox® sessions
Under-eye reduction visible in 2 – 4 weeks
Longer-lasting lift if collagen remodeling is included (e.g., Moxi)
Many guests say their faces look lighter, more awake, and more “snatched” even without makeup.
Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly will I see results?
HydraFacial® or massage can reduce puffiness instantly. Botox® builds lifting effects over 2 – 6 weeks.
Is puffiness the same as fat?
Not always. Many people store fluid, not fat. We evaluate your face to determine the cause before treatment.
Will these treatments slim my face?
Yes—by reducing fluid retention and sculpting muscles, we help restore your natural contours.
Do I need to change my diet?
Reducing sodium, alcohol, and allergens can help. We provide anti-inflammatory lifestyle tips to support your results.
What’s the downtime?
Minimal to none. You may feel tender or see mild swelling after jawline Botox®, but it resolves within a day or two.
What does it cost?
HydraFacial® starts at $199; the Platinum HydraFacial, with lymphatic drainage, is $299. A custom treatment plan will be thoughtfully created during your consultation based on your goals and areas of concern.
