HydraFacial treatment comes from the root word “hydrate”, which means to absorb moisture. The skin treatment option is distinguished from conventional skin resurfacing procedures by its ability to moisturize the skin. It removes dead skin cells, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, evening out skin texture, and shrinking pores. HydraFacial treatment removes dirt and oil from the pores, leaving your skin rejuvenated, ultra-clean, and invigorated. It cleans, exfoliates, and moisturizes the skin. Best of all, it can be used on several skin types, including acne-prone and sensitive skin. There is no blotching of the skin and very minimal downtime, unlike a face peel. Below are the steps involved in the skin treatment procedure:
Exfoliation by Vortex
Our skin cells die and are replaced regularly. They eventually shed on their own, but exfoliation speeds up the process, so your skin feels renewed. Exfoliation also helps to brighten up your complexion because dead skin cells do not reflect light well, causing your skin to appear dull. Healthy cells, on the other hand, help your skin look bright and clean once the dead cells have been removed.
The dead skin cells and debris will be swept away with a deplaning instrument by the esthetician. This process aids the opening of pores, resulting in more hydrated skin.
Peel of Acid
You might be concerned when you hear the words “acidic peel.” The best that most of us know of acid peels is an excruciatingly painful, blistering, or burning of the skin. The acid peel in hydra facial, however, is entirely different. Here, the acid is a mixture of two non-irritating acids – glycolic and salicylic acids. The resulting solution is nutrient-rich and moisturizes the skin while penetrating deep into the pores. After application on the skin, the penetration into the skin pore loosens all blockages, making it easier to remove afterward. This process leaves the skin soft and revitalized.
Extraction by Vortex
Extraction by the vortex is another pain-free process to give your skin the sun-kissed appearance that you desire. The esthetician’s wand works as a vacuum, sucking all the dirt from your clogged pores. This process is pretty easy because the acid peel helps to release all the gunk inside your pores. The esthetician can choose from a few different suction intensities to get the right one for your pores.
Application of Serum
Vortex fusion is the final phase in the procedure since it links the entire treatment together. Here, collagen and an antioxidant serum are applied to the skin, promoting moisture and suppleness. This serum can help with wrinkles, fine lines, uneven skin tones, UV damage, hyperpigmentation, and oiliness.
Bottom Line
Investing in your skin is always a good idea, and getting a hydra facial is the ideal way to give your skin the pampering it deserves. HydraFacial is one of the most effective skin treatment options to exfoliate, extract, and cleanse your skin. It is quick and pain-free. Best of all, the processes have no known adverse effects.
