Finally figured out why my hydrafacial tips were clogging after 3 tries
Turns out I wasn't cleaning the solution line between each client and it took me an extra hour of trial and error to spot the buildup, has anyone else dealt with this sneaky problem?

I watched a video from some dermatology conference where they talked about how the solution lines in hydrafacial machines get this invisible biofilm buildup that no one thinks about. A tech in the comments said she started flushing with diluted white vinegar once a week and it stopped her clogging issues completely. That sticky residue from the serums just sits in there and attracts dirt over time. You probably need to do a weekly deep clean on those lines even if it seems fine. A quick rinse between clients isn't enough once that stuff hardens up.

Girl yes, I had the exact same issue with my machine a few months ago and it drove me crazy until I figured out the biofilm was the culprit lol. Started doing a weekly vinegar flush too and now my solution flows way smoother and I don't get those random clogs during treatments anymore. It's wild how something so simple can make such a huge difference with maintenance.
