How is the Hydrodermabrasion facial experience at your clinic?

What is a Hydrodermabrasion facial?

This a new skincare treatment that’s becoming quite popular. Unlike microdermabrasion, it doesn’t use crystals or diamond tips to exfoliate the skin. Instead, it uses a combination of oxygen and water infused with a recommended serum based on the skin type to shoot a pressurized stream of saline solution onto the skin.

This high-velocity procedure effectively removes dead skin cells and extracts while soothing the skin simultaneously. Not only does it hydrate and cleanse the skin, but it also promotes healthy blood circulation. This better circulation, in turn, helps produce collagen and elastin fibers that tighten the skin and reduce the pores to smaller ones with a more youthful appearance.

This process involves replacing dead skin cells with healthy ones. The active compound used in cleansing ensures no growth of bacteria or impurities on the skin’s surface while also balancing the skin’s pH levels and excess oil. As a result, your skin becomes brighter and healthier. These benefits are long-lasting and can be improved with regular treatments and a good skincare regimen.

Benefits of this treatment

Hydrodermabrasion has several benefits, such as being suitable for sensitive skin that cannot undergo other forms of microdermabrasion. It also reduces the visibility of scarring and dark shadows while improving blood circulation. The process supports collagen and elastin production, tightens the skin, and leaves it smooth and glowing. This treatment can be done on most skin types except acute acne and helps remove dead skin and nourish skin with serums like hyaluronic acid, peptide, salicylic acid, vitamin C, etc. They are all water-based serums and do not contain Alcohol, Gluten, Sulphate, Paraben, or Phthalate. Above all, it requires no downtime, and you can continue your regular activities after the treatment.

This facial can be costly, depending on your location and chosen package or deal. We currently have a promotion; hence, we offer a very attractive deal. You can look at our prices at ‘Book Online‘ link and book appointments as well. As a high-end treatment, insurance does not cover it and is considered a personal expense.

Additionally, while this treatment can provide quick and noticeable results, it typically requires multiple treatments rather than a one-time solution. It is advisable to undergo treatments for optimal and enduring results. However, the cost of multiple Hydrodermabrasion facial treatments can accumulate over time, making it a pricey option in the long term.

It is possible to experience mild side effects such as itching, redness, and minor swelling after treatment. However, these symptoms usually go away within a few hours to a few days. If the symptoms persist for over a week and become a cause for concern, there is a risk of infection and scarring. It is important to seek the advice of a skin specialist in such cases to prevent any serious or permanent damage to the skin. It is also recommended to follow post-treatment options for skin care to address any potential issues early on.

Can I do a Hydrodermabrasion facial if I have skin conditions?

If you have acne or rosacea, consult a doctor or dermatologist before considering this treatment. You can have a quick consult with our onsite doctor before the treatment.

How long do I wait to get a Hydrodermabrasion facial after a chemical peel or laser skin resurfacing?

It is recommended to wait until your skin has fully healed from any previous chemical peel or laser procedures before undergoing this treatment.

What to expect for this treatment at our clinic?

A licensed Esthetician performs Hydrodermabrasion facial treatment. The total treatment takes somewhere from 45 mins to 60 minutes. This time may extend if you opt for add-ons. Below are the high-level steps.

Skin Consult

The Esthetician will perform skin analysis under the magnifying lamp and develop the recommended serum.

Perform a cleanse

During this step, the Esthetician will use ZO Cleanser to clean your face. This process removes makeup, dirt, and grime from the day, which helps to prepare your skin for your Hydrodermabrasion facial treatment.

Prepare the skin with steam.

Although steaming doesn’t work like magic, it can make your skin healthier. Here are a few advantages to utilizing a steamer: A light sweat is induced by the steam’s warmth, which aids in removing pollutants from your pores. Your skin receives a momentary burst of moisture from steam, which helps to smooth out fine wrinkles.

Perform facial using 4-in-1 Soline from Glownar.

This usually takes 8-10 minutes, based on the product recommendation. The Esthetician will assess if more time is needed based on your skin.

Use a toner to clean the pores.

This toner removes dead skin cells that block pores, manages oiliness, tightens the skin, removes any impurities, and reduces the appearance of large pores.

Perform facial massage using cream based on your skin type.

Facial massage is a great way to improve the appearance of your skin by toning muscles and reducing tension. In a 2017 study, participants experienced reduced wrinkles, sagging, and rough skin after eight weeks of using face massage and skin cream together.

Eye creams are formulated to cater to the sensitive skin surrounding the eyes. They are usually thicker in consistency and contain multiple active ingredients that address specific eye-related concerns. The skin near the eyes is more delicate, more prone to dryness, and more likely to age and become tired quickly. Additionally, squinting and continuous eye movement increase the development of lines and wrinkles, and fluid buildup under the eyes results in puffiness and dark circles. Some of these problems can be addressed with eye creams.

Put SPF for sun protection.

After the facial, we would like your skin protected from the sun; hence, we recommend putting an SPF 50 or higher sunscreen.

Microdermabrasion or diamond facial

What is a Microdermabrasion or diamond facial?

A common procedure that might make your skin look better is diamond dermabrasion. A diamond-tipped wand is used to exfoliate your skin’s top layer gently. This can aid in minimizing flaws, fine wrinkles, and spots that could have grown over time. The texture of your skin may also improve, becoming softer, smoother, and more even, with a healthy pinkish hue.

What all add-on services can we take to help with Microdermabrasion or Hydrodermabrasion facial?

LED Light

Due to its relaxing effects and versatility in treatment, this LED light therapy procedure is popular among estheticians and customers. Patients with various skin types can use the machine for a non-invasive, relaxing treatment using natural ingredients. It calms the skin, lessens wrinkles and fine lines, and encourages collagen and elastin formation. A different wavelength of light represents each of the visible spectrum’s hues, each with special curative qualities.

Six colors, including Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Purple, and Orange, are present in the Spark LED Light treatment device, with three hues having autonomous operation. Additionally, it has color combinations in five different modes, including a cycle, Red & Green, Red & Blue, Green & Blue, Red, Green & Blue, Yellow, and Orange & Purple.

Radiofrequency Therapy

A high-frequency alternating current is used in the common non-invasive cosmetic procedure known as radiofrequency therapy (RF) to heat the dermis tissue. This procedure boosts collagen synthesis, which aids in reducing photoaging and skin laxity. This procedure is very successful because it stimulates the growth of new collagen fibers in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue and changes the collagen structure.

Our bodies create less collagen as we age, resulting in thinner and looser skin. The body releases heat-shock proteins when the skin is heated by RF therapy to 107.6°F or 42°C, encouraging the formation of new collagen fibers. The skin becomes firmer, smoother, thicker, and more youthful thanks to collagen.

Fine lines and wrinkles, among other aging symptoms, can be reversed by RF therapy. Radiofrequency therapy boosts collagen protein strength and promotes the growth of new ones. It also tightens and firms skin on both the face and body, reduces the depth of wrinkles, combats wrinkles around the mouth and forehead, smooths out cellulite, and encourages elastin production.

Oxygen Therapy

Using natural oxygen molecules, oxygen therapy rejuvenates drained skin cells, giving the skin a more youthful and radiant appearance. This procedure is highly sought after and can be used with other therapies to address each patient’s specific needs and skin types. Combining oxygen treatment with serums and other beauty products improves skin hydration, clarity, and plumpness. Oxygen Therapy helps to purify the face, hydrate the skin and give it a rested and radiant appearance.

Microdermabrasion vs Hydrodermabrasion facial?

Two popular options to improve your skin’s health and appearance without invasive procedures are Hydrodermabrasion facial and microdermabrasion. While both treatments offer benefits, they use different techniques.

Hydrodermabrasion facial: This multi-step treatment involves cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection. A specialized device delivers serums and water to the skin while removing impurities and dead skin cells. It’s gentle and suitable for most skin types.

Pros of Hydrodermabrasion

– Deeply cleanses skin and unclogs pores

– Provides hydration and improves texture and tone

– Reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation

– Customizable based on individual needs

Cons of Hydrodermabrasion

– May not offer as intense exfoliation as microdermabrasion for certain skin concerns

Microdermabrasion: This mechanical exfoliation technique uses a handheld device to remove the outer layer of dead skin cells. It can employ tiny crystals or a diamond-tipped wand to smooth the skin’s surface and promote cell turnover.

Pros of Microdermabrasion

– Effective exfoliation for smoother, more even skin

– Helps with mild acne scars, fine lines, and sun damage

– Can be performed on various skin types and colors

Cons of Microdermabrasion

– May cause slight redness or irritation after the procedure

– Not recommended for those with severe acne or sensitive skin

Ultimately, choosing between these treatments depends on your skin needs and preferences. Hydrodermabrasion is an all-in-one treatment that provides hydration and exfoliation, while microdermabrasion focuses on intense exfoliation and skin texture improvement. To determine which is right for you, consult a skincare professional.
