Skin Rejuvenation

Most Popular Facial Treatments in LA Right Now

Early 2026 data from LaserAway clinics show HydraFacials as the most popular facial treatment in Los Angeles, with Potenza RF microneedling quickly gaining momentum behind it. Emerging facial treatments like Rejuran and SkinPen are also starting to gain traction as patients explore new ways to improve skin quality.

As patients prioritize preventative care and long-term results, facials that support collagen production and deliver natural-looking improvements are becoming go-to choices across LA.

Fastest Growing Facial Treatments in LA

Hydrafacial and Potenza RF microneedling showed the strongest increase in patient treatments compared to the same period last year.

1. HydraFacial — +21% growth

LaserAway Lead Clinician Arsema Hawariat, RN, explains, “the HydraFacial is a five-step facial that exfoliates, peels, extracts, and hydrates the skin,” helping support clearer, smoother, and more hydrated-looking skin.

Many patients choose HydraFacial for its no downtime, immediate visible results, and ability to support ongoing skin maintenance, making it a consistent part of their skincare routine.

2. Potenza RF Microneedling — +14% growth

RF microneedling treatments use ultrafine needles and radiofrequency energy to create controlled micro-injuries that stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture, tone, and firmness.

Patients choose Potenza for its ability to target deeper skin concerns with minimal downtime, making it a popular option for long-term skin remodeling and gradual, natural-looking results.

Dr Will Kirby, Chief Medical Officer at LaserAway explains, “Potenza is safe for all skin types and is for anyone who’s looking to prevent and correct mild to moderate skin laxity, textural concerns, or pigmentary issues.”

Facial Treatments in LA to Watch in 2026

SkinPen Microneedling

SkinPen microneedling treatments are growing in Los Angeles as more patients look for treatments that deliver real skin improvement without a major time commitment. Using a series of controlled micro-injuries, SkinPen triggers the skin’s natural repair process, boosting collagen and elastin to smooth texture, refine pores, and improve the look of acne scars over time.

Its rise in LA reflects a shift toward low-downtime treatments that build results gradually, with many patients choosing a series of sessions to support ongoing skin renewal and long-term skin quality.

Rejuran

Rejuran is emerging in Los Angeles as patients look for treatments that go beyond surface-level results and actively repair the skin. As LaserAway SVP of Clinic Operations Emily Perbellini explains, “Rejuran is packed with polynucleotides derived from salmon DNA that hydrate the skin from the inside out,” helping support deeper skin healing and regeneration.

Pairing Rejuran with treatments like SkinPen, Potenza or Clear + Brilliant enhance results by helping improve skin texture, elasticity, and the appearance of scars over time.

Key Facial Trends Defining 2026

Collagen-Stimulating Treatments

Collagen stimulating treatments are driven by demand for long-term, natural-looking results. Treatments like SkinPen and RF Microneedling work by triggering the skin’s natural repair response to boost collagen and elastin production.

Natural, Long-Term Results Over Quick Fixes

There’s a clear move away from dramatic, instant results toward gradual improvement. Patients are prioritizing treatments that deliver subtle, natural-looking changes and continue to improve skin over time.

Regenerative Skin Treatments

Treatments that help the skin repair itself are becoming a core focus in 2026. DNA-based treatments, like Rejuran, are gaining traction because they support healing, reduce inflammation, and improve overall skin function.

Preventative + Maintenance-Based Facials

Patients are booking facials more consistently rather than waiting to treat specific concerns. Treatments like Hydrafacials are trending because they help maintain clear, hydrated skin and are easily incorporated into ongoing skincare routines.

Facial Treatment Stacking + Combination Therapy

Patients can benefit from pairing their treatments to enhance results and address multiple skin concerns at once. Common facial treatment pairings include:

  • Hydrafacial & Clear + Brilliant: Hydrafacial works as an excellent primer to deep-cleanse and exfoliate the skin, allowing the Clear + Brilliant laser to more effectively target the mid to deep dermis to refine texture and tone for a deeper, more radiant result.
  • HydraFacial & Injectables: Pairing a HydraFacial with Botox or fillers creates a “smooth and hydrated canvas” that enhances the overall result, allowing injectables to settle into skin that is already deep-cleaned and glowing.
  • Rejuran & Potenza RF Microneedling: This pairing uses radiofrequency energy to repair skin at a structural level. The treatment creates tiny channels that allow Rejuran to soak deep into the skin immediately after the procedure. “For older scars, we combine Rejuran with Potenza to maximize the skin’s repairing benefits,” says LaserAway’s Nurse Megan.
  • Rejuran & Clear + Brilliant: “Pairing Rejuran with a Clear + Brilliant laser facial is like getting two powerhouse treatments in one,” says Hawariat. The laser creates microscopic pathways that help the skin fully absorb Rejuran’s healing ingredients, accelerating the body’s ability to refresh its texture and tone.
  • Rejuran & SkinPen: While other treatments apply Rejuran after the fact, SkinPen works it into the skin during the process. Rejuran is used as the gliding medium for the device, allowing the microneedles to physically carry the formula into the skin as they move. This active delivery helps kickstart collagen production and smooths out scars more effectively.
