HydraFacial MD Tower — The Foundation Facial Device

The HydraFacial MD Tower is the proven, workhorse generation of the world's most popular facial treatment. While it has been succeeded by the connected Syndeo model, the MD Tower utilizes the exact same patented Vortex-Fusion® technology for cleansing, extracting, and hydrating the skin. Because it lacks the software complexity of the newer models, it is incredibly reliable. Pre-owned units are the #1 requested device for new med spa startups, trading between $12,000-$20,000.

Startup Advice: If you are opening a new aesthetic practice on a budget, the MD Tower is the smartest purchase you can make. The patient receives the exact same clinical result from the MD Tower as they do from the $35,000 Syndeo. The $15,000 you save can be deployed into marketing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I buy serums if I buy a used HydraFacial?

HydraFacial (BeautyHealth) tightly controls its serum distribution. They typically require buyers of used equipment to pay a "recertification fee" to open a consumable account. However, third-party aesthetic distributors often sell compatible serums and tips, or you can negotiate the recertification fee directly with your local HydraFacial rep.

Compliance & Tracking

Recommended tracking software for this laser: AestheticTrack. Ensure your clinic meets state medical board regulations by properly logging maintenance, pulse counts, and authorized operators.
