A HydraFacial treatment takes an average of 30 minutes. If this is your first HydraFacial appointment, keep reading to know what to expect.
The One and Only HydraFacial
1 – Cleansing & Exfoliation
The first step is cleansing and exfoliation. Using a vortex cleansing and hydra peel tip, your aesthetician will use the HydraFacial wand to gently cleanse and exfoliate the skin. This removes dead skin cells and sebum while gently opening your pores. Some people describe it as having a revolving electric toothbrush gently pressed to your skin.
2 – Chemical Peel
Next, your aesthetician will change the tip of the wand to deliver a gentle chemical peel. Unlike other chemical peels that are often irritating or painful and leave your skin red for hours or days, HydraFacials use a non-irritating mix of salicylic and glycolic acids for a gentle yet effective peel. The purpose of this step is to loosen deep pore debris.
3 – Extraction
The third step is extraction. This is where the device will use strong, painless vortex vacuum suction to remove blackheads and impurities from your pores. These impurities collect in a cup to be discarded.
4 – Hydrating Serum
Lastly, your aesthetician will use the HydraFacial wand to apply a soothing proprietary antioxidative and hydrating serum with peptides and other beneficial nutrients. This helps to detoxify, rejuvenate, and hydrate the skin.
After your treatment is complete, your aesthetician may also augment the service with additional procedures such as light therapy or fills. HydraFacial is gentle enough that you may complete other treatments during your visit.
What are the Benefits of a HydraFacial?
HydraFacial is a gentle yet effective alternative to harsher facial treatments (1). Here are some of the reasons people love this spa treatment:
- Works on all skin types. Whether you have sensitive skin or acne, dry or oily skin, HydraFacial will work for you.
- Consistent outcomes. Since much of the treatment is controlled by HydraFacial technology, you can achieve a consistently high-quality treatment every time.
- No downtime. Another reason people love HydraFacial is that there is no downtime. You can even apply makeup that same day if you’d like to—though most people enjoy the glow from the treatment too much to cover it up.
- Immediate results. Because the treatment is non-invasive, you can see positive results right away. We even recommend it before weddings or events for a luminous, healthy glow.
How Often Should I Get One?
If you haven’t had a facial or hydra-care routine in the past, it can be beneficial to start with 2-4 HydraFacials a month for about 3 months. Once you’ve established a better baseline for facial skin health, you can benefit from a once-a-month appointment.
