Heres everything to know about the buzzy treatment.
HydraFacials have become the gold standard of skin treatments.
By pairing microdermabrasion-like exfoliation with ultra-hydrating serums, the patented treatment can yield dramatic results with zero downtime.
No wonder everyone fromBeyoncetoBritney SpearsandParis Hiltonis on board.
This pore-refining treatment gives you an instant glow.
So, does it live up to the hype?
Below is my honest review of the HydraFacial.
Fast Facts
What Is A HydraFacial?
Your esthetician can adjust this process based on your skin key in and concerns.
How Does The HydraFacial Work?
The HydraFacial is actually a machine with a handheld gadget attached to it.
According to Rodriguez, the benefits of a HydraFacial can last at least a month or more.
A2014 studyfound that LED light therapy can significantly improve skin complexion and roughness, as well as boost collagen.
If youre into theglass skinorglazed donuttrend, youll be very pleased with your results from a HydraFacial.
I didnt even need to use a highlighter for my post-facial glow.
(Seriously even my fiance noticed my radiant skin, and that says a lot.)
And some of those pesky fine lines I previously had between my eyebrows were nowhere to be found.
Who Should Avoid The Treatment?
Rodriguez notes that the treatment isnt ideal for those with active acne breakouts or rashes.
Even though I have relativelysensitive skin, I had no issues during or after the HydraFacial.
In fact, I didnt even notice much redness afterward.
Final Verdict
Gentle yet effective, Id say just about anyone can benefit from the occasional HydraFacial.
