hydra-Facial Protocol
1. Vortex Exfoliation (Cleansing)
We start this treatment off by using a small Vortex Exfoliation tip to cleanse the skin’s surface. This tool opens the pores and removes the uppermost layer of makeup debris and dead skin cells. The cleansing process gently exfoliates the skin’s surface as it moves along the face.
2. Gentle Chemical Peel
The exfoliating serum contains two excellent chemical exfoliators. Glycolic acid and salicylic acid provide a gentle chemical peel. This step banishes blackheads and removes acne-causing bacteria from deep within the pores. *This gentle peel is SAFE on darker skin tones and complexions. *
3. Extractions
The Vortex Extraction tool acts as a vacuum cleaner on your skin, removing dead skin cells, blackheads, and other debris. A cup at the base of the extraction tool collects the extracted impurities, providing patients with visual confirmation of the extraction process.
4. Serum Application
A custom serum will be applied to your skin following extraction for a completely custom finish. This step also uses the Vortex Fusion tool, which infuses an antioxidant-and-collagen-rich serum into the skin to promote elasticity and hydration. The serum creates a cooling and refreshing sensation on newly cleansed skin, leaving patients with a smooth, glowing, and hydrated finish.
