5 things you should know about the new HydraFacial

The new HydraFacial is not just any facial. Utilizing the latest advances in patented skincare technology, the HydraFacial consists of a three-step process to give your skin an instant glow, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, skin firmness, texture, and pore congestion. Here are some things you should know about this unique process and why you need this treatment:

HydraFacial is suitable for people of all ages, and all skin types and skincare needs. It’s gentle, non-invasive and shows immediate results. It’s effective on brown spots, fine lines and wrinkles, elasticity, tone, texture, enlarged pores, and congested skin – skin concerns that span from teenagers with acne to older people with sun damage.

HydraFacial is different from dermabrasion and hydradermabrasion. Traditional dermabrasion is a skin-resurfacing procedure that “sands” the outer layer of the skin to reveal healthier, smoother skin. HydraFacial uses a patented Vortex-Fusion delivery system to gently exfoliate, extract and hydrate the skin. The spiral design delivers painless extractions.

It’s a simple, three-step regimen. The first step is uncovering a new layer of skin through gentle exfoliation and resurfacing. The second step consists of removing debris from the pores with painless suction, and intense moisturizers follow to nourish the skin. Finally, the skin’s surface is saturated with antioxidants and peptides to maximize your glow.

HydraFacial add-ons can enhance your treatment. To further tailor the treatment to your unique needs, there are HydraFacial add-ons you can choose. Blue LED light therapy can improve the appearance of oily and congested skin. Red LED light therapy decreases the signs of aging and reduces the appearance of redness. Lymphatic therapy removes unwanted buildup, helps detoxify the skin, decreases inflammation and optimizes skin health.

A HydraFacial only takes about 30 minutes and has zero downtime. You won’t experience the irritation you would have with dermabrasion procedures and can return to regular activities after treatment.
