A HydraFacial™, which combines three steps into one treatment, has revolutionized the facial skincare industry with its unusually gentle but impressive results. It uses a combination of exfoliation, peels, vacuum extraction, and powerful hydration to rejuvenate the skin more gently and effectively than any other treatment.
How a HydraFacial™Works
A HydraFacial™ treatment works in three steps, purifying and cleansing your skin so it can fully absorb hydration. We customize every step of the treatment to meet your needs and your comfort level so you never feel anything unpleasant during your HydraFacial™.
Step One: Cleanse & Exfoliate
Your provider will cleanse and exfoliate your skin. This removes any dirt or debris. After cleansing and exfoliation, you will receive a mild peel of glycolic or salicylic acid, depending on your skin type and your concerns.
Step Two: Extract
A HydraFacial™ uses a highly effective vortex extraction system that suctions away pore-clogging debris. This suction causes no discomfort while effectively deep-cleaning pores.
Step Three: Nourish & Moisturize
The skin is treated with deep moisturization, peptides, and antioxidants. Because the previous steps prepared the skin, it can now absorb all of these treatments and benefit from them like never before.
What a HydraFacial™Treats
A HydraFacial™ treats:
- Dullness
- Hyperpigmentation
- Signs of aging
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Oily, congested skin
- Enlarged or clogged pores.
The treatment lasts from 30 to 60 minutes, making it easy to fit into a busy schedule when you want to brighten, tone, and hydrate your skin on the go.
How Much Is a HydraFacial™?
The cost of a HydraFacial™ varies widely depending on many factors, including where you live and the availability of this treatment in your area. According to Elle, on average, the treatment costs about $200-300 per session.
The results of a HydraFacial™ last about a week, although some results will last much longer, and your doctor may recommend monthly appointments to treat hyperpigmentation and other stubborn conditions. You can schedule an appointment any time you would like to look and feel refreshed, or consider a series of treatments for more intensive improvements.
What Results Can I Expect From a HydraFacial™?
You can expect the skin to look more hydrated, luminous, and smooth. Your skin will look bright and refreshed. You can expect to see improvements in oily or congested skin that now looks fresher and clearer. Skin looks younger and more vibrant, and the deep hydration lasts for up to a week to let you keep that glowing complexion a little longer.
Is There Any Downtime for a HydraFacial™?
There is no downtime for a HydraFacial™. The procedure is so gentle that you can leave the office and immediately return to work or your normal activities.
