How Often Should You Do a Hydrafacial?

As we grow older, the condition of our skin becomes more important to us as we begin to see impurities and scarring from factors such as acne, sun damage and even aging. Sadly, this can cause many issues for our self-confidence where we end up spending a fortune on products and serums that we believe could help us but tend not to do much.

With improved technology, there are many treatments available today that can help to drastically improve the appearance of your skin for the better. One of the most popular treatments today is the hydrafacial, sometimes known as hydradermabrasion, which is used to invigorate the skin and reduce signs of aging that can be shown right away. The treatment works to resurface your skin by clearing out your pores and hydrating your skin with virtually no downtime, allowing you to resume with your daily activities or events.

What is a Hydrafacial?

Hydrafacial treatments are carried out in several steps to rejuvenate your skin and target any issues you may have such as fine lines and wrinkles, aging or dark spots, dry skin, mild acne and clogged pores using a special device. The treatment can improve the look and feel of your skin by removing impurities for a more hydrated and clearer complexion to remove signs of aging or dryness. The gentle procedure can be used by anyone, including teenagers, as it combines the regular stages of a facial including cleansing, exfoliation, extraction and hydration to remove dead skin and impurities from the surface with moisturizing serums to provide maximum results.

During the treatment, your face is cleansed to remove any dead skin cells and excess sebum from the surface before applying a chemical peel mixture of salicylic and glycolic acid to gently exfoliate the skin without the added irritation or pain from other mixtures. The mixture is used for the process of breaking up and removing any trapped dirt and oil from the pores to allow new skin cells to regenerate properly. For the extraction process, a vacuum tip is applied to the face to remove dirt, blackheads, oils and impurities from the skin before applying a moisturizing skin-boosting serum to hydrate and nourish the face.

The treatment is often compared to microdermabrasion, an exfoliating treatment using a gentle vacuum with a diamond tip as it targets your dead skin cells, fine lines and wrinkles, however; hydrafacials tend to be more popular as they are completed quickly with no downtime, allowing you to continue with your daily activities or attend special events without the worry of redness or peeling that can come with microdermabrasion.

Benefits of a Hydrafacial

Hydrafacials are a fantastic treatment that can be incorporated into your skincare routine. The treatment can be used against all skin types with many benefits including:

No Downtime & Instant Results

As mentioned, hydrafacials are increasingly popular for the fact that they are typically completed within 30 minutes and provide no downtime. By the end of your treatment, you will see visible improvement where you do not need time to recover for redness or sensitivity. Following the treatment, you will be able to resume your normal activities and even apply makeup!

Fully Customizable

During your initial consultation, we will analyze your skin to develop a customized treatment for your skin’s condition and problems. Depending on your goals, we will use specific skin boosting serums to maximize the intended results with adjustments in the power of the vacuum for your gentle skin. As your treatments continue and your skin improves, we will continue to customize and alter the treatment as we see fit.

Improved Skin Tone

Although results can be seen instantly after the first treatment, with regular hydrafacials, you will begin to see changes of improvement in your overall skin tone and texture. This will include treating aging, diminishing age spots, dark spots and hyperpigmentation as well as increasing hydration for dry skin. The treatment will also work to even out textures that are uneven, giving you an enhanced glow and more youthful look.

Pair with Other Treatments

Hydrafacials are completely non-invasive where you may want to carry out other treatments following the procedure. During your initial consultation or before your next procedure, we can discuss the best options of treatment to maximize results for you.

How Often Should You Get a Hydrafacial?

Hydrafacials are a quick treatment that can have you ready instantly for any special occasion where results can be seen instantly. During your initial consultation, one of our professionals will assess your skin to develop a tailored hydrafacial plan for you that will work for your lifestyle, budget and skin condition.

Although the effects of a hydrafacial lasts longer than other facials, for maximum results, we recommend having a hydrafacial every 4 weeks for the first 3 months of the program to see improvement of your skin. With regular treatments, you can address issues such as acne, aging, hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tones to look your best at all times. As progression and improvement is seen overtime, your specialist will recommend a monthly treatment for maintenance.
