Korean Skin Tightening Facial in Emeryville: Hevatox Facial Price and Steps (2026)

Korean facials are known for layering many steps and technologies into one long treatment, with the focus on hydration, glow and firmness. In Emeryville, Amore Skincare by Wendy lists the Hevatox Advanced Skin Tightening Korean Facial at $295 for 1 hr 40 min, the highest-priced and most involved facial on her menu.

What the Hevatox facial includes

According to her menu, the treatment is a needle-free lifting and firming facial built around two topical products: a patented topical neurotoxin to relax expression lines, and a patented topical filler to plump the skin. Nothing is injected. The session then combines:

Is it the same as Botox?

No. Botox is an injectable prescription medicine given by a licensed medical provider. The Hevatox facial uses topical products applied to the skin during a facial, with no needles. If you are comparing the two, ask the esthetician what the topical products are and what results to expect from a single session versus a series.

Korean facial or HydraFacial?

A HydraFacial is a branded device treatment: cleanse and exfoliate, extract with suction, then infuse serums. Across the published menus in our network, HydraFacials typically cost $155 to $275 in the US (189 menu items). A Korean-style multi-step facial like the Hevatox facial runs longer and adds lifting technologies, which is reflected in the price. Amore Skincare by Wendy does not list a HydraFacial; her closest everyday glow treatment is the Amore Glow Begins Facial ($135).

Who it suits

The treatment is aimed at fine lines, loss of firmness and dullness. Because it combines several devices, it is worth checking first if you are pregnant, have a pacemaker or implanted device, or have very reactive skin. Tell the esthetician about any medications (especially isotretinoin or prescription retinoids), recent peels or laser treatments, active infections, allergies and pregnancy before you book. A facial is not a substitute for a dermatologist if you have a skin condition that needs medical care.
