5 Winter Benefits of a HydraFacial

While harsh facials and chemical peels can produce dramatic results, they also cause more superficial damage to the skin and can take time to heal. Sometimes, your skin just needs a deep clean and a gentle refresher. If the dry, winter air is starting to get to you, a HydraFacial can provide some much-needed cleaning and hydration without the downtime. 

At Regenerative MedSpa of Buckhead in Atlanta, Georgia, our team of body wellness and anti-aging specialists uses the HydraFacial system to rejuvenate your face, restoring a youthful look and improving overall skin health.  

The HydraFacial process

The HydraFacial process is so named because it consists of a specific process: cleansing, extraction, and hydration. These three steps combine aspects of other facials with Vortex-Fusion® technology to create a gentle yet robust experience that leaves your skin stronger than before. 

Cleanse

First, the esthetician thoroughly cleanses your face, gently exfoliating with a dermaplaning device that opens your pores. Then, they apply a gentle peel made of glycolic and salicylic acids to lift dead skin and debris.  

Extract 

Once your face has been completely cleaned and your pores are prepared, the esthetician begins the extraction process. This is done using the patented Vortex-Fusion wand, which extracts debris from your pores without pushing, pulling, or sucking. This keeps your skin from becoming red and irritated or feeling sensitive to cold or heat after treatment.

Hydrate

During the extraction process, your skin is infused with a combination of nourishing serums. Many facials use serums and other moisturizers to hydrate the face, but the HydraFacial is special. The Vortex-Fusion technology seals your skin after extracting, prolonging hydration. 

5 winter benefits of the HydraFacial

Many people experience skin problems during the cold months. Dry and flaky skin, rough patches, enlarged pores, and redness are all common complaints when the winter wind begins to blow. 

With a HydraFacial, you can address all of these problems and more. If the weather is beginning to affect your complexion, consider the winter benefits of a HydraFacial:

1. Works on all skin types, including dry, oily, and combination skin
2. Locks in moisture, preventing dry and itchy skin
3. Reduces signs of aging, particularly fine lines exacerbated by dryness
4. Cleans and closes your pores, protecting your skin from damage
5. Reduces inflammation, so your skin isn’t sensitive after treatment
