The Hydrafacial is the only skin health treatment that merges soothing and invigorating spa therapies with advanced medical technology to achieve instant, lasting results with no downtime. This technology is a unique process best described as water-based microdermabrasion with the ability to infuse a variety of result-delivering serums efficiently into your skin.
The Hydrafacial resurfacing procedure thoroughly enhances the skin using patented Vortex technology to cleanse, exfoliate, extract, and hydrate simultaneously. By removing dead skin cells, congested skin is cleared and you can enjoy smoother, more radiant skin. Enriching serums are infused into the skin to deeply hydrate and rejuvenate glowing skin with a naturally youthful look.
Ranked above IPL for facial rejuvenation, the Hydrafacial is a non-invasive, non-surgical procedure that delivers instant results. We offer the latest technology, including an array of Booster serums, Perks, and the new Wet Diamond HydraFacial!
Is Hydrafacial Right for Me?
Hydrafacial treatments are fully customizable and can address specific skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Skin aging
- Sun damage
- Dull skin tone
- Dehydrated skin
- Oily or acne-prone skin
Hydrafacial is safe for all skin types and skin tones. However, patients with active acne or severe allergies should consult with Dr. Capek and our team of skin experts. This a great option for almost anyone seeking non-surgical treatments and long-term skin health.
Hydrafacial Wet Diamond
The Wet Diamond Tip is an add-on option during your Hydrafacial treatment to achieve a more aggressive exfoliation. This treatment effectively delivers selected serums deeper into the skin layers where they are needed most. The skin is infused with antioxidants and nutrients while being exfoliated with fine-grit diamond granules.
The Wet Diamond Tip is best for skin that is thicker, leathery, or oily/congested. The exfoliation is comparable to microdermabrasion and may be too aggressive for some skin types. You can count on our Master Aesthetician to guide you when deciding which Hydrafacial package is best for you!
Preparing for Your Procedure
Before a Hydrafacial, patients will consult with Dr. Capek to discuss their unique skin concerns and which HydraFacial might be best for them. Each procedure is customized to your unique needs, making it safe for all skin types and skin tones. However, patients with active rashes, acne, or cold sores may need to wait to receive their Hydrafacial treatment.
Your Procedure
The Hydrafacial treatment starts with a gentle hydradermabrasion to gently exfoliate and resurface the skin. A light chemical peel is then applied to further target and improve skin texture and brightening. Painless extractions are performed ridding the pores of make-up, dirt and impurities. Next, a booster serum is infused into the skin for a customized approach focusing on your individual skin’s needs. This is followed up with the infusion of a potent antioxidant serum containing peptides and hyaluronic acid to nourish, protect and volumize the skin. We finish with Red and Blue LED lights, which are safe and clinically proven to increase blood circulation, decrease inflammation and stimulate tissue repair. Red and Blue LED lights help improve the overall health of the skin by addressing acne, enhancing collagen production and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
After Your Procedure
There is no downtime after a Hydrafacial treatment so you can immediately get back to your daily routine. However, we do recommend that patients avoid sun exposure for two days after treatment to protect their treated skin. Visible skin refinement can be seen after just one treatment but multiple treatments may be needed depending on the extent of your skin concerns.
