What Is HydraFacial?
The HydraFacial is a non-invasive resurfacing facial that will enhance the health and appearance of your skin.* This multi-step treatment cleanses, peels, exfoliates, and extracts while removing impurities and replenishing the skin.* The HydraFacial even targets specific skin concerns like fine lines and wrinkles, dark spots, and hyperpigmentation.
How Does HydraFacial Work?
These treatments rely on the use of natural, nutrient-rich serums to clean, hydrate, and protect the skin. Most treatment products work via a 3-step process to deliver optimal treatment results. First, your face is washed to remove all surface-level bacteria. Then, a serum is applied, cleansing your skin through an exfoliation process. During exfoliation, dirt, debris, and bacteria are all cleared from your pores. Finally, the serum is cleaned off, leaving a layer of antioxidant-rich protection.
What Does HydraFacial Address?
This treatment is designed to address acne and subsequent acne scarring. These conditions typically occur due to hormonal and environmental reasons. After a breakout, acne scars form from collagen that is released to counteract aggressive skin damage. As a result of this rapid collagen release, the skin becomes thicker and less flexible. HydraFacial treatments work to exfoliate the skin and improve textural irregularities caused by acne and improper healing.
What to Expect During Treatment
These treatments are usually considered to be relaxing. During your treatment session, your skin will be pampered and comfortably cleansed of superficial toxins. After your treatment, you will notice your skin taking on a radiant glow. For those struggling with severe hyperpigmentation and acne scarring, several HydraFacial sessions may be required for best results.
How Long Is The Recovery Time?
HydraFacial treatments are often called “lunchtime procedures” because they result in no downtime or extensive recovery. After your 30 minutes procedure, you are free to go home are resume your regular routine.
