Hydra Facials

The HydraFacial is a non-laser method of skin resurfacing. It’s not just a facial; it’s a medical procedure with multiple stages. The unique technology behind the HydraFacial infuses serums into the skin as it cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, rehydrates and nourishes the skin.

We at Alma MedSpa in St. Charles, Missouri, can customise and personalise each treatment to the needs of our patients, offering a variety of levels of exfoliation and peels as well as focusing on certain skin issues. This moderate therapy can benefit all skin kinds, tones, and disorders, including rosacea. The HydraFacial may be done in about an hour, and the effects are immediately noticeable with no downtime or irritation.

Hydra Facial Procedure

The average time for a HydraFacial treatment is about 45 minutes. The four-step process is safe for all skin types and includes the following:

Exfoliation: When performing an exfoliation, a lactic acid serum is applied to help remove dead skin cells.

Peel: A mild blend of glycolic and salicylic acid provides the benefits of a peel without the typical peeling and discomfort that follows.

Extractions: A special salicylic acid serum is applied to the skin, and extracted debris is sucked out of the pores by a proprietary, automated vortex suction system.

Enhancement: Personalised, patent-pending skin remedies are sent to treat specific skin issues.

Fusion: The skin is hydrated, nourished, and protected with a fusion of hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and peptides.

Complete with makeup; you can go about your day as usual right after treatment. Recovery from a HydraFacial is instantaneous.

FAQ

How Many HydraFacials Are Needed?

After one HydraFacial treatment, many patients have more even, luminous skin and refinement. The treatment hydrates and smooths skin for 5–7 days or longer.

We recommend monthly treatments to enhance greasy, congested skin, dark spots, fine lines and wrinkles, and skin health. Our patients see improvements in skin hydration, dark spots, fine lines, and wrinkles with continuous treatments.

Which Patients Benefit Most from a HydraFacial Procedure?

This mild remedy is appropriate for use on all skin types. HydraFacial is safe and effective for even the most sensitive skin types. Serum treatments can be adapted to each person’s skin type and condition for optimal results.

After a HydraFacial, what should you not do?
After your treatment, wait around six hours before washing your face. Don’t do strenuous physical activity that will make you sweat; skip the shower, too. It will be best for your skin and the effectiveness of the treatment if you keep your face dry throughout this period.
A HydraFacial: What to Expect?
A HydraFacial treatment requires almost no aftercare or downtime. Some patients’ skin may feel tight and seem red for a few hours after the surgery. Candidates should take 24 hours off from heavy exercise and cosmetics before the exam. After two days, you can return to your regular prescription skincare routine.
