Call True Skin Care Center in Chicago, IL to schedule an appointment for an amazing Hydrafacial.
What Is a Hydrafacial?
Hydrafacial is a patented 30-minute treatment that combines the power and results of multiple treatments into one non-invasive, in-office session. While traditional facials are a great way to nourish your skin or address seasonal issues, none can deliver the resurfacing and rejuvenating power of a Hydrafacial.
The basic treatment is just four steps, but there are add-ons you can choose based on the condition of your skin and the results you’d like to achieve. Each step involves a handheld tool that uses different VortexFusion tips to deliver treatments during your session.
Step 1
The first step is cleansing and begins with your skincare specialist manually cleansing your skin. This is done with the VortexFusion tool and a formula called Activ4. This step uses lactic acid to exfoliate and glucosamine HCI infused with and anti-oxidant rich algae to condition and soften your skin.
Step 2
You and your skincare specialist will have discussed this step before the treatment begins. This step is a deeper exfoliation and can be done with one of two tips, with one more aggressive than the other. There are three levels of chemical exfoliation available. Which is right for you will depend on the condition of your skin.
This exfoliating solution is a combination of glycolic and salicylic acids. These are the same ingredients found in some chemical peels; but here they’re combined with the physical exfoliation of the tip. You’ll get a great peel result quickly without the discomfort you might normally experience.
Step 3
A favorite of traditional facials, this is the extraction step. The tip is changed, and another formula called Beta-HD is used to soften the sebum in your pores. This same tip will suction out your blackheads and clear the sebum from other open pores. While it’s removing all the gunk from your skin, this tip also replaces that gunk with nourishing serums.
Your skin will be infused with honey extract to hydrate the newly cleared pores and spirea ulmaria flower extract to calm and soothe your skin. Unlike the manual extraction you try at home, you won’t be left with red blotches and irritated or damaged skin.
Step 4
Now that your dead skin cells have been exfoliated away and your clogged pores cleared out, it’s time to infuse your skin with a lot of healing, nourishing and anti-aging serums. You’ll get a good dose of anti-oxidants from horse chestnut and green tea extract. Your collagen will be boosted by a jolt of peptides with copper, magnesium, and zinc. Hyaluronic acid is added to attract moisture to your skin and keep it hydrated and dewy.
This Hydrafacial proprietary blend also contains red algae to brighten your complexion and arnica flower extract to further calm and soothe it.
Add-Ons
During your consultation, you’ll be given a menu of add-ons you can choose based on your areas of concern and the condition of your skin.
Lymphatic Drainage
Your skincare specialist will manually move lymph fluid out of your face. This will immediately reduce puffiness and help move toxins out of your system after your treatment.
Boosts
When the serums are being added, you can choose an even more powerful anti-aging formula with stronger peptides to help smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This amped-up formula will also help your skin’s elasticity.
LED Treatment
When the Hydrafacial is over, you can also choose either a blue or a red LED light treatment. Red will calm your skin and further promote skin cell turnover. This will boost your overall results, particularly in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The blue LED is great for killing bacteria. This works well if you have acne-prone skin.
Results
The results are immediate. You will notice an immediate brightening and vibrancy. If you had a dull and tired complexion, you will look rested and fresh after your treatment. You’ll notice a reduction in puffiness and an overall reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Texture
If you were experiencing dry patches, small bumps, blackheads, and excess oil, you’ll have a restored balance after this treatment. The resurfacing will have lifted those small imperfections away, leaving you with a soft and smooth texture.
Discoloration
When your dead and dull skin cells are exfoliated away, this treatment immediately works on reducing uneven tone, brown spots, and hyperpigmentation. The soothing serums will reduce blotchiness, and you’ll see a fresh-faced and dewy complexion.
Am I a Good Candidate?
Because this is a non-invasive treatment that doesn’t use heat, it’s a perfect choice for all skin types, tones and colors. If you have any of the following concerns, this is a great treatment option for:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Large and/or clogged pores
- Oily skin
- Uneven tone and texture
- Hyperpigmentation
