what are the stages of a HydraFacial treatment at shirley’s?
A HydraFacial treatment is carried out in various steps to give you the best results possible. It is the ideal treatment for those with a hectic lifestyle as the HydraFacial can be totally personalised which means clients can focus on targeting there specific areas of concern. This specific sequence enables us to give an instantly more radiant, brighter and glowing complexion. At Shirley’s Beauty & Laser Clinic we perform our HydraFacial treatment in the following steps:
Detox
Toxins are continually removed through the human lymphatic system. If this system is sluggish, your skin will continuously absorb, and then expel, stagnant, toxic lymph. We begin with advanced Lymphatic drainage which will gently open the thoracic nodes to improve circulation, detoxification, tone and result in firmer skin. It then improves blood circulation, stress and sinus reliever and restores hydration in the skin whilst minimising fine lines and wrinkles. Did you know 33% of the lymphatic system is in the face!
Cleanse + Exfoliation
A vacuum-based abrasion tip will gently smooth away dead skin cells and perform a deep cleanse to uncover a new layer of skin with gentle exfoliation and relaxing resurfacing. The skin’s impurities and dead skin cells are lifted gently, to produce new healthier skin cells using a serum containing lactic acid, glucosamine and many other nourishing extracts.
Brightening Agent
Now that pore-blocking old skin cells have been swept away, a salicylic and glycolic solution which is gentle is then applied to help loosen debris and break up congestion from the skin’s pores to bring everything to the surface, giving a dewy and bright appearance to the skin to prepare the skin for extractions.
Extract + Hydrate
We then use our extraction hand piece which is a gentle suction applicator also known as a “pore vacuum” to extract debris from clogged pores, blackheads, whiteheads, excess oils and your skin’s impurities are all removed from the congested skin. Revealing a clear and radiant complexion
Fuse + Protect
Now that your pores are clear and dead skin cells have been removed, your fresh new skin is ready to be treated. This step saturates your skins surface and drenches it in moisture, with a cocktail of advanced antioxidants, peptides and hyaluronic acid to maximise your glow and support collagen . Improving texture, clarity, appearance of the signs of ageing as well as firming and tightening the skin.
Rejuvenate With LED Light Therapy
Finish by bathing the skin with calming red and infrared LED light to help calm the skin, reduce redness & inflammation and further stimulate the production of collagen, supporting the natural production of vitamin D. Blue Light LED Therapy helps to improve the appearance of oily and congested skin, it kills Propionibacterium Acne more commonly known as P-bacteria acne to calm active acne.
