Hydrafacial MD Cosmetic Machine
The Hydrafacial MD Cosmetic Machine, also referred to as simply Hydrafacial, is a non-abrasive, non-evasive and non-laser treatment to remove the dead skin layer, clear out the pores, hydrate and brighten the skin.
For those of you who arenโt familiar with the hydradermabrasion procedure, itโs basically the same as a microdermabrasion, but instead of using crystals & diamonds to exfoliate, it uses water to extract and active serums. Theย HydraFacial MD is marketed on the โRejuvenation Stairwayโ asย being more effective thanย microdermabrasions,ย chemical peels,ย non-ablative laser treatment,ย Botox, andย IPL, and attributes their bold claims to the 4-in-1 Vortex Technology.
So, what is that?
4-in-1 Vortex Technology
The HydraFacial Tip using Vortex Technology
Theย 4-in-1 Vortex Technologyโข exfoliates,ย peels, extracts impurities and hydrates the skin, all with one unit.
The tip is changed between steps to facilitate the special job that itโs doing. You can see why they call it โvortexโ, right?
Step 1: Vortex-Exfoliation
Step 1: Cleansย and exfoliates the surface of the skin.
The treatment starts out with the blue tipย (or the orange one if itโs been a while since youโve exfoliated) to glideย across your skin, usingย a vacuum powered stream of Activ-4โข serum, to gently removeย the outer layer of skin called theย stratum corneum,ย as well asย allย theย dead skin cells, sebum and dirt accumulatedย on the surface of yourย skin during the day.
Theย Activ-4โข serum is comprised of lactic and glycolic acid to cleanse and dislodge the gunk inside the pores, algae extract to sooth and hydrate, and yeast extract to smooth fine lines and firmย the skin.
Step 2: Vortex-Peel
Step 2: Break up the debris in the pores using glycolic and salicylic acid.
After the skin is exfoliated and cleaned, the tealย tip comes into action, infusing the skin with the Glysalโข serum, a happyย mix of salicylic and glycolic acid to helpย loosen the deeper dirt, dead skin and sebum from the pores.
This is so important sinceย sebum accumulationย isย the cause ofย blackheads and whiteheads, the precursors of acne.
Step 3: Vortex-Extraction
Step 3: Strong vacuum suction removes blackheads and other nastiness.
After loosening up all the bad stuff, the teal tip stays on but the serum duย moment is theย Beta-HDโข.
Beta-HDโขย has ingredients suchย as Salicylic Acid to aid inย sucking all of that loosened stuff out (and into a vat for your viewing pleasure afterwards). Then, to hydrate and sooth your skin, it also has Honey Extract and Spirea Ulmaria Flower Extract.
You may also add theย DermaBuilderโขย option to this step,ย which will simultaneously infuseย the pores with wrinkle reducing serums comprised of several types ofย peptidesย (and believe me, youย ainโt ever seen a peptide you didnโt like).
Step 4: Vortex-Fusion
Step 4: Infuses antioxidant serum Antiox-6 into the skin
Vortex-fusion is the final step, when the pores are all clean, and the clear tip comes out to infuse the skin with an antioxidant serum called Antiox-6.
Antiox-6 is a yummy combo of good stuff like Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamins A & E, White Tea Extract, Horse Chestnut Extract, Rosemary Extract andย Turtle Shell Flakes, that help toย plump up your skin and protect it from free radicals at the same time.
