The treatment, now available in the US and other countries, combines hydrodermabrasion, cupping massage, and LED technology.
Medical aesthetic device company Candela Corporation announced the global launch of the Glacē solution at the 2025 American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Annual Meeting, inspired by the K-beauty trend for “glass skin”—a smooth, poreless, and radiant complexion.
The Glacē treatment combines hydrodermabrasion, dual-mode cupping massage, and LED technology to deliver skin purification and hydration. Glacē incorporates dual-mode cupping massage, offering two modes—one to support lymphatic drainage and natural detoxification and another that provides a temporarily sculpted look. Its customizable two-phase serum system delivers tailored treatments for various skin types and concerns, including acne, sensitivity, dryness, uneven tone, and signs of aging.
Treatment can be performed as a standalone procedure or integrated with energy-based devices (EBDs).
“With the growing demand for natural and non-invasive treatments, the launch of the Glacē treatment marks an exciting milestone for Candela. As our first solution to integrate a broad range of cosmeceuticals for comprehensive skin health, Glacē treatments can be delivered standalone or in combination with our advanced energy-based technologies using Candela-developed protocols,” says Geoff Crouse, CEO of Candela, in a release.
Based on clinical studies, the Glacē treatment demonstrates:
- 100% of subjects reporting visibly cleaner skin,
- 97% experiencing improved hydration, and
- 92% choosing to return for future treatments.
The Glacē treatment made its global debut at the AAD Annual Meeting in Orlando, Fla. It is now commercially available for sale in the US, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, with availability expanding across Asia Pacific beginning later this month.
