A HydraFacial is a patented skin treatment available in medical spas and dermatology offices. It’s also sometimes called “hydradermabrasion” because it involves microdermabrasion-like exfoliation paired with hydrating serums.
Known for its three-step process, the HydraFacial works to deep-clean, exfoliate, and hydrate your skin. This professional procedure may help treat a variety of skin conditions, including acne, dryness, and wrinkles.
The noninvasive procedure is similar in principle to a regular facial you might get from a spa but is said to provide more dramatic results. This is achieved by a mechanized wand used on your skin to deeply clean and exfoliate while delivering serums customized to your skin type.
If you’re curious about whether a HydraFacial is worth the hype, read on to learn more about the potential benefits, the possible side effects, and how it compares to similar treatments.
Aftercare for HydraFacial is key to maximize results. Please read the following:
Do not wash your face, shower or work out to produce sweat for at least 6 hours post peel. Water will reactivate the peel and drive it further into the skin .
No chemical peels, microdermabrasion or dermaplaning for 2 Weeks.
May experience redness for2-4 hours post treatment, but i t w i l l subside.
May have flaking on the 2nd to 3rd day after treatment, and may last for 1-2 days. This is just additional dead skin cells that were released be the chemical peel. Do not pick at the peeling, except to remove the loose flakes.
If unusual irritation persists more than 2 days, call our office for treatment.
Cease use of Vitamin C, AHA.s, Glycolics and other chemical exfoliants for 2 days post
treatment.
Use sunscreen following treatment is mandatory! Please use a sunscreen for at least 5-7 days following your treatment as your skin is now more exposed and more susceptible for damage immediately following the treatment. Please refrain from prolonged direct sun exposure or tanning beds for 2 weeks.
It's best to not put make up on immediately following the treatment, but it is fine to wear the next day. Using mineral make-up is preferred.
To achieve maximum results, ongoing treatments and a daily home skin program is recommended.
We strongly recommend that you come in for a HydraFacial solutions every two weeks. During your initial consultation, we will assess your skin type and skin quality as well as review your personal aesthetic goals.
All this will help us determine how often you should invest in facials, including the HydraFacial MD. However, scheduling appointments every two weeks ensures that your face remains hydrated, youthful, smooth, volumized, healthy and taut.
