HydraFacial is a resurfacing treatment that revitalizes skin without irritation. It is a four-step procedure that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts impurities, and hydrates the skin with serums that are introduced into pores via the HydraPeel tip. The technology consists of a handheld pen-like device that employs solutions, including exfoliants, antioxidants, and hydrating serums. The spiral design of the tip creates a suction vortex effect to dislodge and remove impurities, while simultaneously introducing treatment solutions that exfoliate, hydrate, and brighten skin.
HydraFacial is gentle and non-invasive; there is no downtime. Mild transient redness may be visible for a few hours after treatment, but it quickly fades. Shedding of dead skin cells may occur in 1-3 days after HydraFacial. This is normal exfoliation. Smoother and brighter skin will be revealed when peeling has subsided. Peeling is mild and can easily be controlled with a mild moisturizer. Applying an excellent sunscreen daily is vital to protection the new skin cells. Use one that filters out UVB, UVA, visible, and infrared wavelengths of light. This deep pore cleansing treatment enhances the absorption of topical medications and skin care products into the epidermal cell layers, making your skin care regimen more effective. For optimal results, monthly treatments are recommended.
