HydraFacial makes it possible to perform intensive skincare in just a few stages to moisturize the skin and remove dead skin. In addition to skin care, HydraFacial can reduce acne and scars and remove wrinkles with a special tool and a mixture of herbal extracts.
What is Hydrafacial?
HydraFacial is a treatment performed to remove dead cells on the skin and to reduce skin imperfections. This procedure is similar to another treatment called microdermabrasion but is stated to provide more successful results than it. HydraFacial is the name of the device used in this procedure, developed by Edge Systems, and this treatment method is referred to by this name.
This treatment method uses Vortex technology that does not cause harm to the skin while conducting skincare. This method, which uses vortex fusion technology, provides high-level effects by combining various care and treatment procedures in several stages. During HydraFacial, a mixture of glycolic acid and some herbal essences is used to clean the pores. The procedure consists of different stages such as skin cleansing, peeling, moisturizing, and protecting the skin with antioxidants in a single session.
How is Hydrafacial Performed?
HydraFacial cleans dead cells, opens pores, reduces the appearance of scars, and improves fine wrinkles thanks to the vortex fusion technology that can reach the lower layers of the skin and peel off without damaging it. This treatment can be performed in all seasons, which aims to keep the skin moist and to reduce skin defects. Because you do not feel any pain during the procedure, you do not need local anesthetic creams.
The first stage is skin cleaning. A solution suitable for your skin type is used. After your skin is softened with the solution, it is peeled off at a micro-level with vortex technology, clearing dead cells. After skin cleaning with a cleansing solution, the skin is nourished with a moisturizing solution in stage 2. The solution at this stage contains antioxidants and hyaluronic acid, triggering the natural collagen production of the skin. Collagen is a protein that helps tightening the skin. So the skin is both moisturized and starts to renew itself. Finally, LED therapy aims to tighten the pores and protect the skin.
Who Should Get HydraFacial?
HydraFacial is a procedure that almost everyone can get. Anyone can benefit from this skincare regardless of skin tone and age. However, those who have active disease and sunburn should avoid this treatment.
How Often and How Many Times Should You Get Hydrafacial?
HydraFacial is usually performed once a week. It should be performed at least 5 or 6 times to get the desired results. To keep these results, you can get this treatment once a month as maintenance therapy. So an intensive cure should be done once a week to treat skin problems but it is enough to perform it once a month for skincare.

It is a great advantage that HydraFacial offers several skincare procedures in a single procedure. Here are other benefits of HydraFacial skincare:

Side Effects of Hydrafacial
HydraFacial skincare, which is considered a safe treatment by experts, generally does not cause serious side effects. Because it is not an invasive procedure, there are no serious side effects such as infection and bleeding after the procedure. However, if you have used retinoids recently, your skin may get extra sensitive after the procedure. It is alright to feel a cold peeling or slight tickling sensation during the procedure. Besides, it is extremely common to have sensitivity on your skin for a few hours after the procedure. But, all in all, HydraFacial skincare is quite safe as long as it is performed carefully by a professional.
