Hydrafacial treatments have been around for years but they’re still relatively new to the beauty industry. In fact, many people don’t even know what they are or how they work. This non-invasive customizable treatment uses patented technology to cleanse, extract, and hydrate. HydraFacial uses a unique, patented Vortex-Fusion delivery system to exfoliate, extract and hydrate skin, and, the spiral design delivers painless extractions. It helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, reduce acne scars, clear pores, and even lighten dark spots. Read now for our tips to prepare for a Hydrafacial.
What Is A HydraFacial?
A hydrafacial combines two popular treatments into one: microdermabrasion and chemical peels. Microdermabrasion removes the top layer of the skin (the epidermis), while a chemical peel works by removing the outermost layer of the skin (epidermis). This allows the dermal layers to become more visible, revealing new collagen and elastin fibers. Unlike other treatments, Hydrafacial exfoliates and nourishes with custom super serums.
HydraFacial super serums are made with nourishing ingredients that create an instantly gratifying glow in just 3-steps. Peptides, Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, and Glutamine help plump, hydrated, and nourish the skin. Treatments also have the ability to add on Hydrafacial boosters to help target specific client concerns. Hyperpigmentation, breakouts, and dull skin, are just a few options.
The Benefits Of A HydraFacial
Hydrafacials are an excellent treatment option for those who want to improve the appearance of their skin without undergoing surgery. They also help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, as well as treat acne scars and sun damage. The noninvasive treatment requires very little downtime with most people leaving that day with softer, brighter, and glowing skin. Improve overall skin texture, tone, and appearance with your first treatment. This is due to the deep exfoliation that cleans your pores, removing debris and allowing for better penetration of face serums tailored to your skin type.
