Introducing the HydraFacial™ Wave Serum-Based Skin Resurfacing System

Health & Wellness

By Audrey Wood


What is HydraFacial™?


HydraFacial is a NEW breakthrough in aesthetic technology. The HydraFacial takes its name from the root word Hydrate: “to cause to take up moisture”.  This ability to moisturize the skin separates the HydraFacial from all other skin resurfacing procedures.  The HydraFacial removes dead skin cells and impurities while simultaneously bathing the new skin with cleansing, hydrating and moisturizing serums.  The treatment is soothing, refreshing, non-irritating and immediately effective.


Why is HydraFacial good for my skin?


Hydration is the foundation of healthy, radiant skin.  Irritation of the skin has been proven to increase the signs of aging.  The HydraFacial is a hydrating and non-irritating treatment.


Am I a candidate for the HydraFacial treatment?


The HydraFacial treatment is designed for all skin types.  Even the most sensitive skin easily tolerates the treatment.  Your skin care professional can custom-blend the treatment serums for your unique skin conditions.


How long does the treatment take?


The HydraFacial treatment is a fast, efficient treatment that takes as little as 15 minutes.


Is there any pain or downtime?


There is no discomfort during the procedure – it is often described as feeling like a “cool paintbrush moving slowly over the face”.  You may put on make-up and return to your normal activities right after the treatment because there is no downtime.


How many treatments will I need to see results?


Many people report seeing visible skin refinement and an even, radiant skin tone after just one treatment.  A series of six treatments, one treatment each week, is recommended for improving the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and oily/acne-prone skin.  After your first series of treatments, you may want to maintain your results with a HydraFacial treatment every two to four weeks or as recommended for your skin type and condition.
