Everything You Should Know About Hydrafacial

At Awaken Med Spa of Clayton, we focus on skin health and strive to provide our clients with the most effective cosmetic treatments possible. We’re proud to offer the highly sought-after Hydrafacial treatment at our med spa.

The Hydrafacial is a detailed, minimally invasive process widely recognized for its effectiveness in clearing out pores and hydrating the skin. It combines exfoliation, extraction, and hydration in one multi-step treatment. This starts with a deep cleansing process that removes debris and dead skin cells from the skin’s surface. The next step involves a vacuum-like vortex-extraction system that extracts blackheads, whiteheads, and other skin congestion. The last step is to apply a customized serum to nourish and hydrate the skin.

At Awaken Med Spa of Clayton, we understand that each client’s skin is unique. With Hydrafacial, we can customize the treatment to address the specific needs and goals of your skin.

The Hydrafacial treatment stands out for its ability to deliver immediate and noticeable results. Post-treatment, your skin will appear brighter, feel softer, and have a more even tone. It additionally has the potential to smooth facial lines and creases, reduce enlarged pores, enhance skin elasticity and firmness, stimulate collagen production, improve acne and oily skin, and promote lymphatic drainage.

At Awaken Med Spa of Clayton, we are proud to provide innovative Hydrafacial treatment to our valued clients. This non-invasive, multi-step procedure is a favorite among our skin care services due to its numerous benefits such as deep cleansing, removal of impurities, improved skin texture, radiance, and hydration. The Hydrafacial enhances the skin barrier function and reduces inflammation and acne breakouts.

A Hydrafacial treatment at our state-of-the-art facility consists of several phases:

Cleansing and Exfoliation

The treatment begins with a deep cleansing to remove makeup, dirt, and excess oil. A gentle exfoliation procedure is then used to remove dead skin cells, stimulating cell turnover and displaying a fresh, new layer of skin beneath. Our clients often describe this phase as a refreshing and soothing experience.

Acid Peel

Next, a gentle yet effective glycolic/salicylic acid peel is applied. Unlike traditional acid peels which can cause discomfort, the Hydrafacial treatment’s peel loosens dirt and debris from pores without irritation. This step further exfoliates the skin, removes deeper impurities, and improves skin texture.

Extraction

At Awaken Med Spa of Clayton, we use a unique vacuum-powered extraction method as part of the Hydrafacial treatment. This innovative technique removes blackheads, whiteheads, and other clogged pores without the discomfort of manual extractions. It helps clear the skin, reduces inflammation, and prevents future breakouts.

Hydration and Infusion

The final step involves the delivery of antioxidants, vitamins, and hyaluronic acid to the skin through the Hydrafacial device. This hydrating serum replenishes natural vitamins and moisture in the skin, nourishing and protecting it.

LED Light Therapy (Optional)

Some of our Hydrafacial treatments include LED light therapy as an additional step. It consists of exposing the skin to certain light wavelengths, which can help stimulate collagen production, reduce inflammation, and treat certain skin conditions.

The overall Hydrafacial treatment at Awaken Med Spa of Clayton takes about 30 minutes to an hour. It is painless, involves no downtime, and is a popular alternative for people who want to improve the appearance of their skin without experiencing the discomfort and recovery time associated with other facial treatments.

At Awaken Med Spa of Clayton, we offer the renowned HydraFacial skincare treatment. With its multitude of benefits including skin brightening, wrinkle reduction, unclogging pores, and more.

Detoxification and Lymphatic Drainage

Our HydraFacial at Awaken Med Spa of Clayton begins with detoxification and lymphatic drainage. We use a special device to stimulate your lymphatic system, helping to remove excess fluids and impurities that can cause facial puffiness and dullness. This process opens up your pores and sweeps away makeup residue, dead skin cells, and oils, offering a gentle microdermabrasion-like effect.

Exfoliation and Deep Cleansing

The second step of our HydraFacial involves gentle yet effective exfoliation and deep cleansing. We use a gentle glycolic/salicylic acid peel that loosens dirt and debris from your pores without irritating them. Unlike traditional peels, our Hydra facial acid peel only gives a slight tingle and prepares your skin for the optimal absorption of subsequent treatments.

Extraction and Hydration

At Awaken Med Spa of Clayton, we utilize advanced HydraFacial technology in the third step. This combines painless extractions with simultaneous hydration. Instead of manual extractions, we use a special vacuum-powered extraction nozzle to deeply clean your pores.

Fusion and Protection

 The final stage of the Hydrafacial involves a deeply nourishing serum treatment. These hydrating serums are infused into your skin using the same cutting-edge technology that extracts impurities. We can customize these serums based on your individual skin needs but they typically include antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid to hydrate, nourish, and protect your skin.

Hydrafacial is a game-changer for those seeking a personalized skincare solution. This innovative treatment caters to all skin types, offering a path to healthy, glowing skin. Let’s dive into the benefits and discover how Hydrafacial can transform your complexion.
