What is a HydraFacial®?
HydraFacial® uses a patented Vortex-Fusion delivery system with a spiral design for comfortable pore cleansing and extraction. The treatment exfoliates the skin, extracts material from clogged pores, and locks in hydration to leave you with luminous, healthy-looking skin.
How Does a HydraFacial® Work?
A HydraFacial® treatment has three key steps that work together to achieve the glowing results that people keep coming back for.
Step One: Cleanse + Peel
A gentle resurfacing serum, followed by a mild glycolic and salicylic acid peel, removes dirt and dead skin cells, leaving the skin clean, fresh, and ready for the next treatment step.
Step Two: Extract + Hydrate
Vortex suction using a special serum cleans out the pores and leaves them smaller and tighter, while a serum of hyaluronic acid, peptides, and antioxidants protects and nourishes the skin.
Step Three: Fuse and Protect
One of several proprietary skin treatments deeply hydrates the skin and targets specific skin concerns. Your provider will also suggest a series of at-home products you can use to keep your glow lasting longer.
Comparison with Other Treatments
HydraFacial stands out when compared to other popular skin treatments like microdermabrasion and chemical peels.
Microdermabrasion vs. HydraFacial
Microdermabrasion uses crystals to exfoliate the skin, which can sometimes cause irritation, especially for sensitive skin types. In contrast, HydraFacial uses a gentler vacuum suction method. This approach allows for a deeper cleanse with less risk of discomfort.
Chemical Peels vs. HydraFacial
Chemical peels rely on acids to strip away the top layer of skin. While effective, they can be harsh, leading to redness or peeling, particularly for those with delicate skin. HydraFacial combines both exfoliation and hydration in one treatment, offering a balanced approach that is gentle yet effective.
For those looking to address fine lines, acne, or uneven texture, HydraFacial provides a comprehensive solution with fewer risks compared to other treatments.
Customization Options
HydraFacial is not just a one-size-fits-all treatment. It offers customization options to target specific skin concerns. This flexibility allows the treatment to be tailored to individual needs.
Choosing the Right Booster
Patients can choose from a variety of boosters during their HydraFacial session. These boosters are designed to address particular issues like aging, acne, or hyperpigmentation. For instance, those struggling with fine lines might opt for a peptide-rich booster to enhance collagen production.
Personalized Treatment for Optimal Results
The ability to customize the treatment makes HydraFacial an appealing choice for many. Whether you’re aiming for brighter skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, or managing acne, there’s a booster that fits your needs.
This personalized approach ensures that each HydraFacial session is as effective as possible for the patient’s unique skin type and concerns.
