When people look for a facial in Şişli, the question is usually the same: "Which one is right for my skin?" Hydrafacial, Fresh, DermaRevive, Genosys... there are many names and the differences aren't obvious. At Renew & Revive Beauty on Abide-i Hürriyet Avenue we make that choice with a skin analysis, not a guess. This page explains how the treatments differ, which skin needs each one suits and what happens at your first visit.
It Starts with a Skin Analysis
Before treatments, your skin is assessed with an AI-assisted skin analysis device. Skin structure, moisture balance and pore condition are shown in detail, and the type and frequency of treatment are suggested based on that data. Read how it works on our free skin analysis page.
Which Facial Suits You? Quick Guide
| Your skin's main need | Treatment that usually fits | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Congested pores, dullness, dehydration | Hydrafacial (Hydro Facial) | Combines cleansing, gentle exfoliation, vacuum-assisted deep cleansing and hydrating serums in one session. |
| Tired, flat-looking skin that needs a refresh | Fresh facial | A lighter routine focused on purifying, hydrating and reviving. |
| Skin renewal and texture | DermaRevive facial | Planned around your skin's renewal needs; suitability is checked at the analysis. |
| Fine lines, loss of firmness | Genosys anti-aging facial | A multi-step protocol with anti-aging actives, usually chosen for skin aged 30 and over. |
| Dark spots and uneven tone | Genosys SnowCell | A protocol aimed at the look of uneven skin tone. |
| Breakouts and oiliness | Acne care | Focuses on clogged pores and sebum balance. |
The table is a starting point, not a final answer. Skin with both congestion and pigmentation, for example, may get treatments planned in sequence.
What Happens in a Hydrafacial Session?
- Cleansing: make-up and impurities are removed with gentle cleansers.
- Gentle exfoliation: the surface is refined without peeling or irritation.
- Vacuum-assisted deep cleansing: special tips help lift sebum and debris from pores.
- Serums: hydrating and balancing serums chosen for your skin.
- Mask and protection: finished with a mask and moisturiser for your skin type.

Session Length and Frequency
Facials usually take 30–60 minutes depending on the treatment. For a regular routine, most people come back every 2–4 weeks. Your skin's renewal cycle and seasonal changes affect this, so we set your schedule together after the analysis.
Genosys vs Hydrafacial
Hydrafacial is mainly about cleansing, purifying and hydration, a great start if you want clear, glowing skin. Genosys treatments use cosmeceutical actives aimed at a specific goal such as signs of aging, pigmentation or the eye area. Learn more in what is Genosys.
The First Few Days After
- Skip saunas, steam rooms and heavy workouts for 24 hours.
- Use broad-spectrum sunscreen every day.
- Pause scrubs, acids and retinol for a few days.
- Stick to a simple moisturiser that supports your barrier; see our skin barrier guide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most frequently asked questions about this content
How is Hydrafacial different from a classic facial?
Hydrafacial combines cleansing, gentle exfoliation, vacuum-assisted deep cleansing and hydrating serums in one device-assisted session. In a classic facial these steps are done mostly by hand.
How do I know which facial suits me?
An AI-assisted skin analysis checks your skin structure, moisture balance and pores before treatment, and we recommend the facial based on the result.
How long does a facial take?
Usually 30–60 minutes, depending on the treatment.
How often should I have a facial?
For a regular routine, every 2–4 weeks suits most people. We set your schedule after the skin analysis.
Can I wear make-up afterwards?
We suggest giving your skin a few hours without make-up; if you need it, choose light, non-comedogenic products.
Do you offer facials for men?
Yes. Hydrafacial and our other facials are suitable for men too; oiliness and shaving sensitivity are taken into account at the analysis.
