HydraFacial™ Services
The HydraFacial™ is a three-step facial that uses patented technology to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate the skin, leaving it with the signature smoothness and glow that has made HydraFacial™ an incredibly popular treatment option. At Enrichment Skin Solutions, we are a proud registered and licensed provider of HydraFacial™ treatments.
How Does HydraFacial™ Work?
The magic of HydraFacial™ lies in the handheld wand – called a CytoPeel® – that is used to deliver the treatment. Different attachments are used for each step in the treatment process: deep cleansing and exfoliation, extraction, and hydration.
Deep cleansing and exfoliation
In the first step of the treatment, a mechanized wand is used to cleanse and exfoliate the skin. The wand uses a vortex-like water flow to deeply clean your pores of impurities and gently uncover a new layer skin. In this stage, the wand also delivers a GlySal™ serum – a combination of glycolic and salicylic acid – which further helps to exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin cells and gently resurfacing it for improved texture and plumpness. The GlySal™ serum has been specially formulated to provide the benefits of a traditional chemical peel, without the usual post-peel flakiness.
Extraction
In the second step of the HydraFacial™, the handheld wand extracts the debris and impurities from your pores like a vacuum. The extraction of impurities in this stage is particularly effective because your pores will be more open after being exfoliated in the first step. HydraFacial™ extraction achieves excellent results because it uses patented serums, Beta-HD™ serum and Antiox+™, to simultaneously clean out and intensely nourish your pores. These serums will deliver a potent combination of hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and peptides deep into the epidermal layer of your skin. This method is also quicker and more comfortable than traditional extractions, which are performed manually by an aesthetician.
Hydration
In the final step, the wand is used to saturate the skin’s surface with further antioxidants and peptides. These ingredients help to enhance your skin’s texture and glow, leaving it intensely hydrated and nourished. The delivery of peptides into the epidermal layer also stimulates collagen production (collagen is made up of polypeptide chains, so saturating the skin with peptides assists collagen-formation). Stimulating collagen production leads to improved skin elasticity, plumpness, and volume, giving your skin a healthy, youthful look.
In the hydration stage, your skincare professional can also deliver targeted booster serums to address specific skin concerns. For example, if you struggle with hyperpigmentation, you can request that a serum targeting dark marks and dullness – such as Hydrafacial’s Britenol serum – be included in your treatment.
What Skin Concerns Does HydraFacial™ Treat?
One of the great advantages of HydraFacial™ is that it is used to simultaneously treat a variety of skin concerns. It is particularly effective for treating congested, acne-prone skin, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, targeting hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone, and nourishing dehydrated, irritable skin. The treatment also helps to reduce pore size.
The booster serums that can be included in the hydration stage of the facial also allow for your treatment to be personalized to your specific skin concerns. There are a wide range of boosters available, so it is a good idea to have a consultation before your treatment to get a sense of which booster serum will be best suited to your needs.
What Is Hydradermabrasion?
HydraFacial™ is a form of hydradermabrasion. Hydradermabrasion is the technical term for the kind of skin exfoliation procedure (‘dermabrasion’) that uses water, or a water-based nutritional solution, to ‘blast’ and resurface the skin. It is gentler than traditional microdermabrasion, which uses an abrasive such as sand or crystals to exfoliate the skin.
If your skin requires deeper exfoliation, you can choose to upgrade your treatment to the Diamond Tip HydraFacial™. In this treatment, a diamond-encrusted tip is added to the handheld wand, gently scouring and resurfacing the skin and opening pores for maximum treatment efficacy. The Diamond Tip HydraFacial™ combines the squeaky-clean feeling of physical exfoliation (i.e. traditional microdermabrasion) with all the usual nourishing benefits of a HydraFacial™.
Suitability, Results And Recovery Period
HydraFacial™ is generally suitable for all skin types, including those with sensitive skin. However, it is always recommended that you consult with your skincare professional before proceeding with any medical-grade skin treatment, particularly if you have skin conditions like rosacea or are pregnant.
One of the major benefits of HydraFacial™ is that it tends to provide longer-lasting results because of its deeply penetrating exfoliation and hydration mechanism. To maintain your results and optimum skin health, it is recommended you schedule a HydraFacial™ every one to two months. HydraFacial™ can be performed in less than an hour – a typical session lasts 45 minutes – and requires no downtime. Its gentle cleansing GlySal™ serum will not leave your skin flaking or peeling like traditional peels, so you’ll be good to go!
