What’s So Great About the HydraFacial?

Damon Lebrun • March 21, 2019

The great thing about the HydraFacial treatment is that it’s a great option for virtually all skin types, conditions and concerns. As long as you are not suffering from an extreme cystic breakout, don’t have any active infections or allergies to sulfa drugs, you are a candidate for this treatment.

What exactly is the HydraFacial

The HydraFacial is a hydradermabrasion treatment designed to cleanse, exfoliate, extract impuritites and provide intense hydration to your skin by using Vortex-Fusion Technology. Overall, the facial is very comfortable, there is no downtime, and it can be done in as little as 30 minutes. It helps to improve the overall health of the skin. Your skin is left cleaner, smoother, brighter and more hydrafted in just a few steps.

What happens during the treatment?

During the treatment, serums and disposable tips are used to effectively and safely cleanse, exfoliate, extract impurities from pores and infuse antioxidants into your skin. Dull, dry surface skin is removed to reveal fresh skin and to allow better penetration of the serums used later in the treatment. These serums include a mini chemical peel, a deep pore cleansing solution and a superior antioxidant serum for intensive hydration and anti-aging benefit. The treatment uses some vacuum suction and fees a little wet and scratchy but not uncomfortable at all.

The vacuum suction, the specially designed vortex tips and the formulation of the serums used in the Hydrafacial are what make this a superior treatment. It is customizable to give dull, aged, damages and break-out prone skin the boost it needs to glow. Results from the treatment are instant and with a series of treatments, even better!

What can I do to help boost my treatment?

There are several boosters available to include as a part of your HydraFacial experience that target specific concerns. The Dermabuilder contains a formulation of conditioning peptides to hydrate, firm and soothe skin to address fine lines, wrinkles, skin tone evenness and texture. The Britenol is specifically formulated to target dark spots and sun damaged areas to leave skin glowing and with a more even complexion. Lymphatic Drainage helps to detoxify the skin as well as help with sinus congestion.

HydraFacials are loved by celebrities and beauty publications. This treatment was named the best facial to transform your skin by the New Beauty Beauty Choice Awards in the “Instant Results” category!
