What is Hydradermabrasion?
Hydradermabrasion (Hydrafacial), with or without micro‑crystals (mechanical peeling with microcrystals, derm abrasion) is perhaps the simplest non‑invasive treatment for a moisturized, clean, and rejuvenated face.
It can be performed during all months of the year, offering an ideal solution for oily skin, mild acne forms, blackheads, and enlarged pores.
How is the treatment done?
The device operates with a dual vacuum and pressure pump system while simultaneously providing strong suction.
The process is performed in phases:
1. In the first stage, special heads with diamond particles or aluminum oxide crystals (depending on the skin type and patient’s needs) are used for mild micro‑exfoliation. Negative pressure and water are used together to remove dead keratinized cells, sebum, and blackheads from the skin.
2. In the second stage, a gentle peeling of low‑concentration glycolic and salicylic acids is applied to further rejuvenate the skin and deeply cleanse the face.
3. In the third stage, strong suction is used to remove all dead elements from the epidermis, promote collagenogenesis, improve lymphatic drainage, and reduce facial swelling, giving a healthier and more radiant appearance.
4. Finally, a cocktail of peptides, vitamins, and hyaluronic acid serum with antioxidant, regenerative, and antiaging properties is applied. The key is the individualized selection of the serum composition to achieve the optimal result for each patient.
