What is a Hydrafacial?
A hydrafacial is an elevated facial treatment that uses the newest technology combining various skincare techniques into one comprehensive session. The patented Vortex-Fusion technology is part of a multi-step process that revitalizes the skin by opening pores, plus removing dead skin cells and debris. The skin is then infused with a serum. The hydrafacial works on every skin type and targets acne with blemish treatment and detoxification effects. It also handles skin issues like age spots, providing cleansing effects for skin rejuvenation.
What are the benefits of hydrafacial therapy?
HydraFacial benefits and post-treatment care are the amazing aspects of the treatment providing immediate results. The skin texture and tone are felt and seen the same day with a visible radiant glow and smoother complexion.
The hydrafacial is versatile and can be tailored to the patient’s skin types and concerns, such as acne, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation. Unlike other aggressive treatments, hydrafacial is a non-invasive process that has no downtime. After treatment, the client can return to regular activities immediately after a session.
How does a hydrafacial work?
- Step I. The area of treatment is cleaned and exfoliated. This is a gentle process to unclog pores and prep for the next phase.
- Step II. A mild chemical peel is applied to loosen impurities and stubborn debris from the skin, setting the stage for a smoother complexion.
- Step III. The patented device uses a gentle suction which painlessly extracts debris from the pores and reduces blackheads.
- Step IV. A blend of antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, and peptides are infused into the skin to replenish and hydrate. This process promotes a healthy glow.
- Step V. A serum for the individual type of skin containing antioxidants and peptides is applied.

Post-Hydrafacial Care Routine
Aftercare is important to preserve the skin’s plumpness and radiance. After having your skin deep cleaned, the skin may be sensitive, so sweat workouts, hot showers or a sauna should be avoided for a day or two. Applying makeup in the hours after a hydrafacial should also be avoided. The first day and night it is recommended to use only a gentle cleanser.
Avoid toners or anything that can cause dryness and irritation to newly treated skin which is perfectly balanced after the hydrafacial session. Hold off on acne treatments for a few days or it can irritate the skin. Immediately after a session the treated area is extra sensitive to UVA rays and tanning beds.
