A 7-step HydraFacial is an advanced skincare treatment that combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection in seven steps to rejuvenate your skin. It's designed to deliver long-term skin health and can be tailored to meet the specific needs of all skin types.
Here's a breakdown of each step:
-
Detox: This initial step kicks off the process with lymphatic drainage. This helps to improve circulation, detoxify the skin, and optimize skin health. Lymphatic drainage also helps to reduce inflammation and puffiness.
-
Cleansing & Exfoliation: Gentle cleansing removes surface dirt and impurities. This is followed by exfoliation which removes dead skin cells, revealing a brighter and smoother complexion. Often this involves a specialized tip and solution that gently polishes the skin.
-
Brightening: This step usually involves a gentle acid peel. The strength of the peel is customized to the patient's needs. This helps to loosen debris from pores and brighten the skin.
-
Extraction: Using HydraFacial's patented Vortex-Fusion technology, blackheads, whiteheads, and other impurities are painlessly extracted from pores. The vortex suction gently cleanses the pores without causing inflammation.
-
Hydration: Intense moisturizers and hydrating serums are applied to quench the skin and provide deep hydration. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid are often used to attract and retain moisture.
-
Rejuvenation: This stage focuses on applying antioxidant serums and peptides to protect and nourish the skin. These serums may target specific concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and acne. LED light therapy might also be used to further stimulate collagen production and reduce inflammation.
-
Protect: Finally, the skin is protected with sunscreen and other beneficial products to maintain results and protect the skin from environmental damage.
The 7-step HydraFacial provides a comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation, leaving skin looking radiant, refreshed, and healthy. It's a non-invasive treatment with minimal downtime, making it a popular choice for those seeking visible results without aggressive procedures.
