😊 About Hydrofacial
The Hydrofacial Treatment is a multi-step skin resurfacing treatment that combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection.
This treatment can help improve the appearance of your skin by removing dead skin cells and impurities while delivering moisturizing serums into your skin.
It’s a non-invasive treatment that doesn’t require any downtime, making it a great option for busy people who want to take care of their skin.
Dr. Gretchen Frieling MD (Board Certified Dermatopathologist):
“Hydrofacial takes its name from the root word hydrate—this ability to moisturize the skin. The treatment is soothing, refreshing, non-irritating, and immediately effective.”
🧖 Who is the Hydrofacial Treatment for?
This treatment is perfect for anyone who wants to improve the appearance of their skin.
Whether you have dry skin, dark spots, fine lines, or wrinkles, this treatment can help. It’s also great for people with sensitive skin who can’t tolerate more aggressive treatments.
The Hydrofacial Treatment is customizable, and your esthetician can tailor it to your specific skin concerns?
“We have made Hydrofacial treatments an integral part of our skincare plans. These treatments are very effective to improve skin texture and tone and brighten complexion,” said Irina Shcherbina, owner of Q Medi Spa.
👩🔬 Why Beauty Salon 7-in-1 Smart Ice Blue Is The Best Machine?
At Q Medi Spa, we use the Beauty Salon 7-in-1 Smart Ice Blue machine for Hydrofacial treatments. It’s one of the best Hydrofacial machines available today.
It has multiple functions, including deep cleansing, exfoliation, hydration, and skin rejuvenation. It uses a combination of vacuum suction and hydro technology to remove dead skin cells and impurities while infusing the skin with nourishing serums.
The Beauty Salon 7-in-1 Smart Ice Blue machine also has a cooling function that can help reduce inflammation and soothe the skin.
💆♀️ What does a Hydrofacial Treatment look like?
The Hydrofacial Treatment involves several steps.
- First, a special solution is applied to your skin to prepare it for the treatment.
- Then, a vacuum-like device is used to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells from your face.
- Afterward, a nourishing serum is applied to your skin to hydrate and protect it.
The entire treatment takes about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the specific treatment plan your esthetician has created for you.
According to some experts, if you don’t do Hydrofacial treatment regularly, you may not get the optimal results for your skin condition and goals. It’s recommend repeating the treatment every 4 weeks, or every 3 months.
You can schedule a free consultation with us to determine the best frequency for you.
😟 What happens if you don’t include Hydrofacial Treatment in your skincare routine?
If you neglect your skin, it can become dull, dry, and prone to breakouts.
Fine lines and wrinkles may also start to appear, making you look older than you actually are.
The Hydrofacial Treatment can help prevent these issues by exfoliating and hydrating your skin, which can help maintain a healthy and youthful complexion.
🌸 Why should you consider Hydrofacial Treatment?
Many people choose Hydrofacial for its benefits that can improve their skin texture, tone and appearance. Here are some of the main benefits of Hydrofacial treatment:
Exfoliates the Skin:
One of the benefits of Hydrofacial is that it removes dead skin cells and impurities from the surface of the skin using a gentle vortex suction method.
This allows for better absorption of serums and moisturizers that can nourish and protect the skin.
Exfoliation also stimulates collagen production and cell renewal, which can make the skin smoother, firmer and more radiant.
Cleanses the Pores:
Another benefit of Hydrofacial is that it clears clogged pores that can cause acne, blackheads and whiteheads.
The water jets loosen up dirt, oil and bacteria from the pores while the suction extracts them out.
The result is cleaner, clearer and healthier-looking skin with reduced pore size.
Hydrates the Skin:
A third benefit of Hydrofacial is that it delivers hydration to the skin using customized serums that contain antioxidants, peptides and hyaluronic acid.
These ingredients help replenish moisture levels, fight free radical damage, boost elasticity and plump up fine lines and wrinkles.
Hydration also helps balance oil production and calm inflammation in oily or sensitive skin types.
Evens Out Skin Tone:
It helps improve and even out skin tone by reducing redness, hyperpigmentation and acne scars.
This is due to the mixture of acids that are used during the exfoliation process such as glycolic acid (GA) or salicylic acid (SA).
These acids help lighten dark spots, fade discoloration and smooth out uneven texture.
No Downtime or Pain:
A fifth benefit comes to a safe, painless and non-invasive procedure that does not cause any damage or irritation to the skin.
Unlike some other facials or peels that can leave your skin red, flaky or sensitive for days or weeks after treatment, Hydrofacial has no downtime or side effects apart from some temporary redness or tingling that usually goes away within hours.
You can resume your normal activities right after your treatment without any worries.
According to Dr. Jennifer Chwalek, MD FAAD,
“Hydrofacials are great for anyone looking for an instant glow without downtime. They are especially beneficial for people with dry or dehydrated skin who need a boost of hydration.”
Dr. Paul Jarrod Frank MD agrees that,
“Hydrofacials are great for maintenance but not transformation. The treatment is ideal for people who want a quick pick-me-up before an event or a special occasion”.
This treatment can help you achieve a more youthful and radiant complexion.
The results of the Hydrofacial Treatment are immediate and can last for several months.
What are some risks of doing Hydrofacial?
Like any other cosmetic procedure, Hydrofacial also has some potential side effects that you should be aware of before booking your appointment.
One of the most common side effects of Hydrofacial is some temporary redness and tingling on the treated area. This is usually caused by the suction and water pressure that can irritate sensitive skin.
The redness and tingling should subside within a day or two after the treatment. To soothe your skin, you can apply a gentle moisturizer or sunscreen after your Hydrofacial.
Another possible side effect of Hydrofacial is an immediate skin breakout. This can happen when impurities from the deeper layers of the skin rise to the surface due to the treatment. This is sometimes referred to as “purging” by skin experts.
The breakout may consist of spots and whiteheads that appear on your face.
This is not necessarily a bad thing, as it means that your skin is getting rid of toxins and debris. However, it can be frustrating if you were expecting a flawless complexion right away.
The breakout should clear up within a week or two after your Hydrofacial.
To prevent infection and scarring, you should avoid picking or popping any pimples that may form.
