Concerns Treated


Fine Lines & Wrinkles

Smooth as a baby’s bottom. Not saying we necessarily want to correlate that to our faces, but the idea is the same. Fine lines, fine wrinkles, and crepey skin can disrupt the surface of our skin — let’s fix that.

Acne

There might be a few (or a lot) of things you wouldn’t have minded growing out of. If your acne followed you out of high school, fear not you can ditch those unwanted blemishes once and for all.

Rosacea

If you’re tired of having persistent facial redness across your cheeks and nose, perhaps it’s time to consider calling in the professionals.

Uneven Skin Texture

Most of us hoped graduating high school meant graduating from rough and bumpy skin. Unfortunately, however, this is not always the case.

HydraFacial® Overview


description

Your treatment begins with a skin analysis, followed by a cleanse and steam to prepare your skin. Next, a soothing “mini-vacuum” gently suctions out impurities, while a blend of salicylic and glycolic acids works to unclog dirt and debris from the pores. Finally, peptides, antioxidants, and hyaluronic acid are infused into the skin to restore, rejuvenate, and detoxify, leaving your skin feeling refreshed and revitalized.

Frequently Asked Questions


What is a Hydrafacial®?

HydraFacial®, aka hydradermabrasion, has been compared to microdermabrasion due to its efficacy in exfoliating dead and damaged skin cells. During a HydraFacial™ treatment skin is exfoliated at the stratum corneum layer to remove skin cells and oil. Next, a combination of salicylic acid and glycolic acid is applied to unclog pores of dirt and debris. A painless vortex extraction patented technology then removes exfoliated skin cells, debris, blackheads, and other impurities from the skin's surface. Finally, vortex fusion delivers an antioxidant formulation with potent peptides and hyaluronic acid. This procedure restores, rejuvenates, and detoxifies the skin.
