For most patients, Dr. Panagotacos recommends making HydraFacials a part of their skin care regimen.
Introducing the HydraFacial
The beauty of HydraFacial is that its proprietary three-step process can treat numerous skin concerns, from acne to aging, while promoting overall skin health at the same time.
And the best part? It uses a patented, noninvasive, suction-based device to do it.
HydraFacial uses advanced hydradermabrasion technology to gently exfoliate your skin both mechanically and chemically.
You may have heard of microdermabrasion. This popular and highly effective treatment uses microcrystals to exfoliate the skin.
HydraFacial’s hydradermabrasion technology provides similar results, but it uses a much gentler approach.
And HydraFacial’s three-step process allows us to target your skin’s issues in a brief 30-45 minute session — and it comes with no downtime or pain.
You can even benefit from HydraFacial if you have sensitive skin or you’re experiencing active skin inflammation. In fact, the treatment can relieve skin dryness, congestion, signs of aging, and much, much more.
How HydraFacial transforms your skin
When you get a HydraFacial, its patented device uses suction to extract facial impurities — like blackheads, pollution, and dirt — while infusing the skin with proprietary serums.
HydraFacial serums include hydrating and anti-aging ingredients like antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, and peptides.
The three-step process consists of distinct phases: cleansing, extracting, and hydrating.
Phase 1: Cleanse
During this phase, we deep clean and exfoliate the skin with a gentle infusion of salicylic and glycolic acids.
Salicylic acid penetrates deep into the pores, which helps with the extraction process.
The glycolic acid buffs the surface of your skin, revealing a smooth texture and improving hydration levels at the same time.
Phase 2: Extract
Phase two puts HydraFacial’s vacuum technology to work, lifting blackheads and sebaceous filaments out of your pores.
This gentle suction comes with less risk of damage when compared to alternative extraction techniques, like manual and at-home pore suction devices.
Phase 3: Hydrate
Finally, the device’s technology purifies pores while delivering hydrating and anti-aging powerhouse ingredients to the skin.
To ensure you get the greatest benefits from this final phase, we help you choose a customized HydraFacial blend of serums designed to treat your skin’s specific needs.
What to expect from HydraFacial
If you want to completely transform your skin in a single appointment, you can’t go wrong with HydraFacial. However, we usually recommend scheduling monthly treatments to maintain your results and keep your skin in optimal condition.
You can also customize your HydraFacial regimen to your budget and skin needs.
