A HydraFacial is a multi-step treatment that combines various technologies for deep cleansing and rejuvenation. Here's a breakdown of the steps involved:
- Cleanse and Exfoliate
- The treatment begins with gentle cleansing to remove any makeup or dirt from the skin’s surface.
- Exfoliation is performed using a special tool to remove dead skin cells, revealing a fresh layer of skin beneath.
- Acid Peel (Optional)
- A mild acid peel is applied to loosen dirt and debris from pores.
- This step is gentle and does not cause irritation, unlike traditional chemical peels.
- Extraction
- Using the HydraFacial handpiece, gentle suction is applied to extract impurities like blackheads and excess oils from the pores.
- This step helps to deeply cleanse and unclog the skin without causing discomfort.
- Hydration and Serum Infusion
- Customized serums, containing antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid, are infused into the skin.
- These serums hydrate, nourish, and rejuvenate the skin, addressing specific concerns like fine lines, acne, or pigmentation.
- LED Light Therapy (Optional)
- LED light therapy may be used at the end of the treatment for additional skin benefits.
- Red light helps with anti-aging and collagen production, while blue light targets acne-causing bacteria.
- Final Moisturizing and Protection
- The treatment concludes with the application of a moisturizing cream to seal in hydration.
- Sunscreen is also applied to protect the skin from UV damage, as the skin may be more sensitive after the treatment.
