Posted By Madilyn Moeller, Wednesday, September 10, 2025

The Beauty Health Company, home to flagship brand Hydrafacial, announced the launch of the Hydrafacial Advisory Councils and Ambassador Network – a prestigious collective of plastic surgeons, dermatologists, aesthetic practitioners, and estheticians selected for their expertise and influence in the aesthetic industry.
The formation of the Hydrafacial Advisory Councils and Ambassador Network reinforces Hydrafacial’s long-standing commitment to its provider community, ensuring the brand’s innovation pipeline, education programs, and clinical research remain grounded in real-world insights and excellence in care.
“Providers have always been at the heart of Hydrafacial,” says BeautyHealth Chief Executive Officer Marla Beck. “Our Advisory Councils formalize that commitment by giving plastic surgeons, dermatologists, aesthetic practitioners, and estheticians a true seat at the table to guide our innovation, education, and the clinical rigor behind every Hydrafacial treatment.”
The Hydrafacial Advisory Councils will provide practical, clinical insights to help guide innovation and treatment protocols, identify emerging trends and unmet client needs, and advance clinical research. They will also play a key role in education and peer-to-peer learning initiatives, while helping to shape Hydrafacial’s brand voice to build trust, credibility, and long-term loyalty. Members of the Hydrafacial Ambassador Network will also champion the brand across digital channels, creating authentic content that engages professionals and clients alike.
“Our mission is to be the best in the world at enabling providers to deliver healthy, glowing skin—and that starts with listening,” says Hydrafacial Chief Marketing Officer Carrie Caulkins. “This is more than a recognition of expertise; it’s a strategic platform to ensure our growth is guided by the professionals shaping the future of skin health.”
The founding cohorts include a diverse and accomplished group of professionals recognized not only for their clinical excellence, but for their commitment to education, mentorship, and impact within the aesthetic industry. Each council is guided by an esteemed Chair, who fosters dialogue and ensures discussions reflect the most relevant issues shaping the industry today. The inaugural Chairs of the Advisory Councils are Ted Lain, MD, MBA, Blaklee Paige Smith, MSN, APRN, AGPCNP-BC, NP-C, and Kelly Horton-Beeman, LE.
