You’ve no doubt heard that it’s important to clean your face, especially after a day of wearing makeup, but do you know why? It’s because your skin is on a constant journey of growth, death, and regeneration. Daily cleansing, exfoliating, and hydrating removes the old skin cells and lets the new ones shine through.As an addition to your daily ritual, clinical facials can help give your skin an extra boost toward a smoother, brighter tone and texture. At Advanced Dermatology & Skin Surgery, we offer a variety of clinical facials to suit your needs:
Deep Cleansing Extraction Facial
This treatment is designed for people who are challenged by adolescent or adult comedonal acne (not cystic acne). It includes deep cleansing, exfoliation, steam, and manual extractions. If your acne is severe, we may also advise medical management.
Hydrafacial™
This facial is right for you if you’re looking for an all-in-one treatment. The highly regarded HydraFacial™ employs a creative resurfacing procedure that extracts impurities and exfoliates your skin while hydrating it at the same time, resulting in a refreshed, illuminating glow. The HydraFacial™ is non-invasive, non-surgical, and produces instant results with limited discomfort or downtime.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is HydraFacial™?
The HydraFacial™ treatment is an aesthetic technology that takes its name from the root word hydrate, meaning “to cause to take up moisture,” and its breakthrough moisturizing technique is what separates it from all other skin resurfacing techniques. The HydraFacial™ works by removing dead skin cells and extracting impurities while simultaneously bathing the new skin with cleansing, hydrating, and moisturizing serums. The treatment is soothing, refreshing, non-irritating and immediately effective.
Am I a candidate for this treatment?
The HydraFacial™ is designed for all skin types, and even the most sensitive skin easily tolerates the treatment. Your Licensed Aesthetician will customize the treatment for your unique skin conditions and needs.
How long does the treatment take? Is there any downtime or pain involved?
The HydraFacial™ treatment is a fast, efficient treatment that is often described as a feeling like “a cool paintbrush moving over the face”. You may put on make-up and return to your normal activities right after the treatment.
What kind of results will I see?
Many people report seeing visible skin refinement and an even, radiant skin tone after just one treatment, and results and hydration can last 5 to 7 days or even longer. We recommend one treatment per month for improving the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and oily, congested skin, and continued HydraFacial™ treatments are highly recommended to maintain results.
