HydraFacial MD®

The HydraFacial MD® is the most advanced and effective facial treatment, delivering results immediately. The focus of the treatment is to remove impurities and replenish the skin with essential nutrients leaving you immediately with noticeable results.

The HydraFacial MD® is the only hydra-dermabrasion procedure that cleanses, detoxifies, exfoliates, extracts and hydrates all in one treatment! The treatment is effective for every skin type, has no downtime, no discomfort, and leads to healthy and rejuvenated skin. Even for patients with sensitive skin, the treatment is soothing, refreshing and effective!

In addition to improving overall skin health, the non-invasive HydraFacial MD® treatment will remedy:

• Skin tone, texture, evenness, & vibrancy
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Elasticity and firmness
• Congested/oily skin
• Enlarged pores
• Advanced signs of aging
• Brown spots

The unique Vortex-Fusion serum® delivery system cleanses, evenly exfoliates, and extracts to remove impurities and dead skin cells. Also, the treatment replenishes vital nutrients including antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid.

These nutrients work to mitigate environmental damage caused by free radicals due to toxins, UV rays, and pollution. The HydraFacial MD® treatment will work to reverse the environmental damage which leads to a decline in skin elasticity, resilience, tone, and texture.

The HydraFacial MD® treatment can be given in as little as 30 minutes but delivers long-term benefits and silky smooth skin. This treatment may be tailored to meet the unique needs of your skin condition and skin type.
