6 cases as plaintiff.
HydraFacial LLC is a medical aesthetics company headquartered in Long Beach, California, founded in 1997 as Edge Systems LLC before eventually rebranding to The HydraFacial Company. It operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of SkinHealth Systems Inc. (formerly The Beauty Health Company, NASDAQ: SKIN), which rebranded in April 2026. The parent company reported net sales of $334.3 million for the full year 2024 and approximately $70.7 million in Q3 2025. HydraFacial LLC employs several hundred individuals, with estimates generally ranging from 500 to 1,000 employees.
The company manufactures and distributes advanced aesthetic treatment devices and consumables for professional dermatology and med-spa practices globally. Its flagship offering is the HydraFacial system, which utilizes patented Vortex-Fusion® technology to provide a non-invasive, multi-step hydradermabrasion treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, and hydrates the skin. HydraFacial also offers customized booster serums, LED light therapy, and Keravive, a scalp-peptide treatment platform for hair thinning and growth stimulation.
HydraFacial LLC demonstrates an active patent litigation posture. With six cases as plaintiff and two as defendant, the company primarily asserts its own intellectual property, suggesting it is an operating company actively defending its innovations rather than a non-practicing entity. The cases are distributed across various U.S. District Courts, including those in Utah, Nevada, California, Tennessee, and Florida, as well as before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB).
Notable cases in its litigation history include defensive actions at the PTAB, such as Aesthetic Management Partners LLC v. HydraFacial LLC and Eunsung Global Corp. v. HydraFacial LLC. On the offensive side, HydraFacial LLC has initiated multiple suits, including against BQ Aesthetix & Co LLC, MIRAmedtech SP. Z.O.O., Luvo Medical Technologies, Medicreations, LLC, Aesthetic Management Partners, LLC, and Sinclair Pharma Limited, predominantly asserting its patented aesthetic device technologies.
