Re: Have you had the hydrafacial? Is it all that?

For the few remaining humans still unfamiliar with the HydraFacial, here's the deal: It's a "medical-grade hydradermabrasion device that carries out a patented three-part regimen — cleansing, exfoliating, and then infusing skin with intensive serums," explains Sameer Bashey, a clinical instructor in dermatology at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.

 

 

 

 

Back up: Hydradermabrasion? Yep. Rather than blasting the skin with grit, à la traditional dermabrasion, this gentler approach vacuums out pores while simultaneously pushing in potent actives, which moisturize, brighten, plump, and protect. The machine's handpiece holds patented spiralized treatment tips equipped with "vortex technology" — the whirling force that both giveth and taketh away. Beyond the standard three steps, there are targeted add-ons, or boosters, which take aim at unique skin concerns, like brown spots or nagging lines.

Still confused as to why they call it a "hydrofacial" when no water is involved.


Just go with it!! It's not that complicated - they use serums instead of water! It's the name someone thought up to probably sound better than just a regular old "facial"
