Don't use any exfoliating treatments, like glycolic acid or enzymes, for at least 48 hours after the treatment. Don't use over-the-counter acne medications, like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid, for at least 48 hours after treatment. Avoid intense heat for at least 24 hours after treatment.
Two Days Before Treatment
Two days before your treatment, do not use any over-the-counter acne medications, such as salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. Refrain from waxing and using depilatories. You should also refrain from any type of exfoliating treatments, like those containing active enzymes or glycolic acids.
Step Two. After we complete step one of your facial, we will use an acid peel to carefully cleanse your skin. This acid peel will contain a gentle mixture of glycolic and salicylic acids. This chemical mixture will eliminate debris that is located in the deeper areas of your pores.
While this may vary from person to person, you can expect the results of your HydraFacial to last for at least 7 days. In many cases, those results will last much longer. If you do notice that the results of your facial have started to fade, you can always have an additional treatment to maintain those results.
The easy answer is that you can have HydraFacial CT treatments about once a month, or once every 4 weeks. This is the general frequency that is most compatible for most people and that can generate the best skin-boosting benefits.
Do not wax or use depilatories for at least 48 hours after the treatment. Don't use any medium or deep chemical peels or laser treatments for at least two weeks after your facial treatment. Don't use any exfoliating treatments, like glycolic acid or enzymes, for at least 48 hours after the treatment.
Using moisturizer on the skin daily helps it remain hydrated. The skin will lock in the moisture. Patients can choose a moisturizer which contains sunscreen to protect the skin against sun damage as well.
No, HydraFacial treatment does not produce permanent results. In fact, it is recommended that you get HydraFacial treatment as often as once per month to maintain firm, glowing skin. You'll likely see the effects of a HydraFacial treatment within minutes.
After a HydraFacial, which typically takes just 30 minutes or less, some redness may occur. This is often the only side effect of a HydraFacial and is typically mild and resolves quickly on its own. If desired, patients can apply makeup after HydraFacial treatment to conceal any redness.
It combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection simultaneously, resulting in clearer, more beautiful skin with no discomfort or downtime. HydraFacial™ targets fine lines and wrinkles, congested and enlarged pores, oily or acne-prone skin, hyperpigmentation, and brown spots.
That's why HydraFacial is a fast, efficient treatment that takes as little as 30 minutes. You may put on makeup and return to your normal activities right after the treatment since there is no downtime.
It's not exactly painful, but most patients do report that it's uncomfortable. Many of the same benefits provided by microneedling can be achieved with a HydraFacial, with the exception of eviscerating scars. And, as you know, this treatment poses no risk for pain.
A hydrafacial is one of the most powerful, non-invasive skin resurfacing treatments available today. It combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration and antioxidant protection that removes dead skin cells and impurities, while simultaneously delivering moisturizing serums into the skin.
What makes a HydraFacial better than a regular facial? A lack of manual extraction makes this process gentler on the skin than most regular facials, with instant and long-lasting results that you can see and feel. You'll notice improved hydration, minimized dark spots, and even a decrease in fine lines.
How long do the results last? One HydraFacial is all you need to give your skin a reboot. But like all good things, the results from HydraFacial eventually fade away — typically, after about 4-6 weeks. Fortunately, you can keep coming back to get more HydraFacial treatments every month.
While every person is different, results usually last anywhere from four to six weeks. It's recommended that you schedule a HydraFacial monthly to maintain your beautiful new complexion.
Some facial treatments can take a lot of time to complete or require a period of downtime after the treatment to allow the skin to recover. This is not the case with the HydraFacial: the treatment itself only takes about 30 minutes to complete.
How often should you get a hydrafacial? We strongly recommend that you come in for a HydraFacial solutions every two weeks. During your initial consultation, we will assess your skin type and skin quality as well as review your personal aesthetic goals.
For the best and most lasting results, we recommend patients get a series of 4 to 6 HydraFacials and space them 2 to 4 weeks apart.
Our recommendation: As the weather starts to cool, don't wait for seasonal problems to occur. October or early November is a great time to book your HydraFacial so you can prep your skin for harsher weather and dry air.
Glycolic, Salicylic, and Lactic acids are used frequently in HydraFacial MD treatments. These acids are notorious for gently exfoliating skin by sloughing away dead skin cells.
HydraFacial MD® uses water rather than micro-crystals or a diamond tip as the exfoliating medium. However it goes beyond microdermabrasion. The multi-step treatment cleanses, exfoliates, and extracts dead skin cells. It then bathes the skin in serums packed with rich hydrating ingredients, antioxidants, and peptides.
