What is HydraFacial?
This non-invasive treatment is a combination of anti-ageing features that deliver instant results with ingredients that ensure skin health. Not only does HydraFacial offer long-lasting results, but they’re also highly visible, so you will see a marked difference on your face.
This facial treatment will leave your skin brighter and refreshed. It also unclogs pores and removes dead skin and dirt during its deep extraction process.
The procedure is a blend of:
Cleansing
Exfoliation
Extraction
Hydration
Antioxidant Protection
Red LED Light Therapy
Why is HydraFacial So Popular?
While HydraFacial is incredibly popular all year round, it is especially sought-after over the summer months. After all, its ability to offer bright, clear skin attracts many people who are attending special events and social occasions, such as weddings, as they want to look their best.
Who can blame them? This treatment is a medical grade facial that combines cleansing, pore extraction and lymphatic drainage massage techniques to ensure your skin is purified.
Also, by applying active-ingredient-fueled serums immediately after, your skin will look as good as it feels.
Which Benefits Can I Get from HydraFacial?
This treatment will improve your skin tone and texture and, by opting for several sessions, you may also see a big improvement on acne and acne scarring, as well as enlarged pores, sun spots and age marks.
Why is HydraFacial Good for My Skin?
HydraFacial combines many different processes in one treatment, including hydration. A hydrated skin is crucial for healthy and radiant skin, not to mention youthful-looking. And, while other procedures may irritate your skin, HydraFacial does not, always ensuring the best results.
My Skin is Sensitive; Can I Actually Have this Treatment?
Some procedures are best suited for specific skin types, but HydraFacial is great for everyone. No matter whether you have dry or oily skin, or even sensitive skin, the treatment is personalised for each person, so you can be assured that we will select the right serums for your skin type.
How Often Should I Get HydraFacial?
One session is usually enough to see results. However, if you’d like to continue improving the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation and oily and congested skin, one treatment per month can be the right solution for you. By regularly getting a HydraFacial, you can maintain glowing, radiant skin.
Does HydraFacial Hurt?
You can rest assured that this treatment is comfortable and, apart from a slight pinkness to your skin for 24 hours, you will have no downtime at all. Also, you’re free to return to your usual activities immediately, so no need for recovery whatsoever.
Can I Exercise After My Session?
While HydraFacial is a safe procedure with no downtime – and you can return to your normal life immediately – it’s still recommended that you give it a few hours or days before exercising. Your skin was just cleansed, and dirt and debris removed from it, and we also apply antioxidant serums and hyaluronic acid into your skin at the end of the session. So, in order for your skin to rebuild and for you to hold onto that glow for longer, you should hold off from working out.
What About Aftercare?
You don’t have to do anything in specific, apart from using the take-home products we will give you, which have been designed to enhance the treatment’s results. You just need to apply the PerkTM vial and give your skin a boost. Another thing you should do is to be gentle with your skin. You’ve just had it exfoliated, so avoid doing it again for another week or so. After all, you don’t want to irritate your skin.
There are several ways to achieve flawless skin so, once you’ve had your facial, you will want to wear sunscreen regularly and make sure to hydrate your skin. This will help you to maintain the excellent results you get from HydraFacial.
Will Hydrafacial Clear a Breakout?
The Hydrafacial treatment will help to clear acneic skin. The multi-step approach of the procedure is customised to your skin and seeks to restore its health and reduce the appearance of spots. By encouraging the natural drainage of the lymph, exfoliating the skin and deep cleansing it, we are reducing the production of sebum, reducing bacteria and removing dead skin cells, blackheads and other impurities.
Do I Need to Stop My Skincare Routine Before Getting a HydraFacial?
If you are using products that contain retin-A or alpha hydroxy acids, you should not include them on your skin care routine for a few days before the treatment. If you’re unsure whether or not your facial products are safe to use, don’t hesitate to ask us and we will let you know!
HydraFacial is one of our most popular treatments – and hugely sought-after around the world – because of the fantastic and immediate results it offers. We are more than happy to answer other questions you may have about this procedure, so don’t hesitate to put all of your doubts to rest.
