What is HydraFacial treatment?
A HydraFacial treatment is a non-invasive skincare treatment that involves multiple steps to cleanse, exfoliate, extract, and hydrate the skin. It is an all-in-one treatment that is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
The HydraFacial treatment uses a unique, patented technology that works by delivering serums and antioxidants deep into the skin, leaving it looking fresh, radiant, and rejuvenated. It is a painless treatment that requires no downtime, and the results can be seen immediately. To book a consultation with our skin experts, simply contact us here.
The 6 Steps of Hydrafacial
The HydraFacial treatment consists of six steps that work together to provide optimal skin health:
Step 1: Cleansing and Exfoliation
The first step involves cleansing the skin of any impurities, dirt, or makeup. This is done using a specialized wand that exfoliates and removes any dead skin cells from the surface of the skin.
Step 2: Acid Peel
In this step, a gentle acid peel is applied to the skin to remove any dirt or oil that may be clogging the pores. This step helps to unclog pores, smooth out the skin's texture, and brighten the complexion.
Step 3: Extractions
This step involves using a vacuum-like tool to remove any blackheads or whiteheads from the skin. This is a painless and effective way to unclog pores and remove impurities.
Step 4: Hydration
In this step, a serum containing antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid is infused into the skin to hydrate and plump it. This step helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and leaves the skin feeling soft and supple.
Step 5: LED Light Therapy
This step involves using a specialised light to reduce inflammation and redness in the skin. This helps to calm the skin and reduce the appearance of acne.
Step 6: Protection
In the final step, a protective serum is applied to the skin to lock in the benefits of the treatment and protect the skin from environmental damage.
