THE BENEFITS

HOW DOES A 

Hydrofacial work?

A hydrofacial is a patented skin treatment available in medical spas and dermatology offices. It’s also sometimes called ‘hydradermabrasion’ because it involves microdermabrasion-like exfoliation paired with hydrating serums.

Hydrofacial works to deep-clean, exfoliate and hydrate your skin. This professional procedure may help treat a variety of skin conditions including acne, dryness and wrinkles.

The noninvasive procedure is similar in principle to a regular facial you might get from a spa but is said to provide more dramatic results. This is achieved by a mechanized wand used on your skin to deeply clean and exfoliate while delivering serums customized to your skin type.

Hydrofacial will give you instant and visible results that you can see and feel after each treatment. This patented technology follows a six-step treatment process – detox, cleanse and exfoliation, brightening, extraction, hydration and finally rejuvenation. Dead skin cells and impurities are removed and the skin is hydrated with antioxidants and peptides.

step 1

DETOX

A specially formulated lymphatic drainage technique that helps increase circulation, eliminating toxins.

step 2

DOUBLE CLEANSING & MICRODERMABRASION

Dead skin cells and impurities are gently lifted for a deep-cleansing result. Renews skin tone and texture. Uses fine crystals and a vacuum to remove dead skin cells.

step 3

HYDRO DERMABRASION

Water & oxygen combined to gently exfoliate and hydrate the skin which removes impurities from the pores.

step 4

EXTRACTION

Blackheads and impurities in congested areas are extracted using a spatula like scrubber, uses vibrations to loosen the build-up of oil and sebum in pores.

step 5

radio frequency skin tightening

Helps boost collagen, tighten and lift the skin. A radio frequency (rf) collagen facial is a non-surgical face lift that combines bipolar and tripolar radio frequencies to induce collagen production, which tightens the skin and reduces wrinkles, scarring and pores.

The radio frequency produces two or three currents depending on whether it’s bipolar or tripolar, heating the deeper skin tissues to promote blood circulation to tighten the skin. At the same time, cooling measures are taken on the skin’s surface by applying our special cooling gel.

This heat creates a focussed wound-healing response that can take up to 4 months to complete. During this time, the dermal layer thickens and produces more
Collagen, and the wrinkles are then pushed out so the skin becomes firmer, tighter and more contoured.

step 6

ultrasound penetration

High level sound wave technology is used to penetrate deep below the surface of the skin promoting cellular renewal and repair, increasing blood circulation, encouraging lymphatic drainage, combating puffiness and swelling and improving skin care product penetration.

step 7

hydro & oxygen hydration

Assists in increasing skin vitality by using high pressure hydro – oxygen spray.

step 8

cold hammer treatment

The temperature can penetrate into the skin. The cold temperature soothes tired and overheated skin. It closes the pores whilst locking moisture into the skin.

step 9

rejuvenation

Led light is used to stimulate collagen and also reduces redness leaving your skin glowing.

step 10
