What are the Steps of the HydraFacial?
Step one
Using a proprietary HydraFacial cleanser, dead skin cells are eradicated, and the pores are refreshed. Only non-irritating ingredients are utilized to nourish and hydrate the skin cells. A gentle chemical peel formulated with salicylic acid and glycolic acid helps to further exfoliate debris. For those patients struggling with sun damage and scarring, a stronger peel can be used.
Step two
During the second stage of treatment, a vortex suction device with a uniquely designed tip is used to exfoliate the complexion further. This is a more powerful and intense process than conventional extractions. It wrests away congestion, dirt, and debris, firming and tightening the pores.
Step three
During the third stage of the HydraFacial in Redwood City, the skin is infused with hydrating elixirs and serums. These medical-grade skincare products are made with antioxidants that leave the skin brighter and more engaging. Peptides and hyaluronic acid compounds are also used to nourish the complexion.
Who Makes a Good Candidate?
The HydraFacial is an excellent choice for anyone seeking an innovative solution to a dull or dry complexion. The treatment is ideal for improving the skin tone and texture and removing the outermost layer of damaged skin cells. It is even a good choice for those with sensitive skin. Because water is the primary medium used, the HydraFacial is considered supremely gentle. We always recommend that patients begin their skincare journey with a HydraFacial, as the treatment enhances the absorption and efficacy of topical products, injectables, and anti-aging serums.
Who is Not a Good Candidate?
For patients who require more intense skin resurfacing results, the HydraFacial may not be an ideal choice on its own.
These patients may obtain a more appropriate outcome using the HydraFacial in tandem with laser therapy or chemical peels. Patients with shellfish allergies should avoid the HydraFacial.
What Can I Expect After My Treatment?
While there is no real recovery time after a HydraFacial, patients need to follow our practitioners' instructions in order to preserve their newly refreshed complexion. They should avoid excessive exposure to the sun's harmful UV rays along with tanning beds for the first 72 hours. Patients should refrain from washing their faces until the night of treatment and avoid chemical peels and laser therapy for at least two weeks. Acne medications should be postponed for 48 hours, while vigorous cardio sessions and visits to the hot tub or sauna should be avoided for the first 24 hours. Patients should not wear makeup for one day after their hydrafacial in Redwood City.
