HydraFacial Treatment
When celebrities hit the red-carpet, their hair is perfectly coiffed and clothes expertly fitted. They also show-off glowing and radiant skin, that seems almost impossible to achieve.
However, many of these stars have revealed that their clear and bright complexions are due to a non-invasive treatment known as HydraFacial.
Not only does it boast amazing results, but HydraFacial is quick, painless, and requires zero-downtime. So, it’s no wonder that all of Hollywood is obsessed with this skincare procedure.
Here’s what patients can expect should they decide to undergo HydraFacial for luminous skin.
What Is HydraFacial?
HydraFacial, often referred to as a mega-facial, employs a handheld device that suctions away impurities, while simultaneously invigorating the skin with nourishing serums.
However, unlike a traditional facial or microdermabrasion, HydraFacial is extremely gentle and is even recommended before big events to enhance the skin’s tone and texture.
What Are the Four Steps of a Hydrafacial?
Step 1 – Cleanse and Exfoliate
The first step in a HydraFacial treatment is cleansing and exfoliation of the skin. This is accomplished as the provider gently presses the HydraFacial wand into the skin and covers the entire face with stripe-like motions.
During this process, the device’s patented tip and Vortex technology sloughs off dead skin cells and washes away impurities.
Step 2 – Glycel Peel
A peel comprised of glycolic and salicylic acid is then delivered and removed in the same manner as the first step.
Step 3 – Extraction
While many patients dread extractions with a traditional facial, this is not the case with HydraFacial. In fact, using slower movements than steps 1 and 2, HydraFacial removes pore-clogging and acne-causing substances without any pain or irritation.
Step 4 – Infusion
Finally, the skin is infused with antioxidants, peptides, and nourishing serums for increased hydration and protection against free-radicals and environmental agents.
Who’s a Good Candidate for HydraFacial?
HydraFacial is safe for all skin types and can treat a wide-range of aesthetic concerns, including dullness, roughness, hyperpigmentation, acne, scarring, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Best of all, it can be tailored to meet each patient’s unique needs and offers “boosts” to help them achieve their goals.
What to Expect From HydraFacial Results?
Immediately after a HydraFacial treatment, skin appears glowy and feels soft. Patients are able to resume all normal activities right away without any redness.
The results continue to improve to reveal a smoother, clearer, and brilliant complexion – just like the celebrities on the red carpet.
