Tru Glō Medspa offers its southwest Florida-area clients a wide variety of facials. Some are based on classic techniques that provide overall skin conditioning benefits, while others utilize innovative technologies that can target specific skin concerns. With so many options to consider, clients often question us on particular facials and want to learn more details about the benefits, effectiveness, and process of a specific treatment.

With HyrdaFacial emerging as one of our most popular facial treatments, we thought we’d take the opportunity to share more details. Learn about this innovative, customizable facial by answering the FAQs we hear most. Read on to learn whether HyrdaFacial is the right facial option for you!

How Does HydraFacial Work and What Makes it Different From Other Facials?

HydraFacial treatments are conducted with a medical-grade machine that combines cleansing, chemical peel, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection into one five-phase session that can be customized according to skin type, skincare needs, and desired aesthetic results. HydraFacial-certified estheticians can typically perform the procedure in about 30 minutes, while delivering immediately noticeable results and requiring no down time. Along with providing traditional facial rejuvenation benefits, HydraFacial can efficiently address skin concerns such as:

• Oily and acne-prone skin
• Blackheads
• Uneven skin tone
• Hyperpigmentation
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Enlarged and blocked pores
• Rough texture
• Sunspot and sun damage
• Dryness

The HydraFacial machine uses patented Vortex-Fusion® technology. It is applied to your face with specialized hand-held applicators that perform different functions. Most sessions begin with the cleansing phase, in which rotating brushes on the applicator gently break up and wash away dead skin with the help of a cleansing serum designed to target specific skin concerns as needed.

The vortex peel phase uses an applicator wand to apply a mixture of peeling agents. This gently removes the top layer of skin, therefore reducing the appearance of fine-moderate lines and shallow acne scars. After is a vortex extraction. This uses an applicator wand that massages and suctions the skin to help remove blackheads and unclog pores.

Your session will conclude with a vortex-boost and vortex-fusion phase. The vortex-boost phase delivers a proprietary blend of skin-conditioning agents into the skin that are tailored to address specific skin conditions. The vortex-fusion phase applies a closing serum of antioxidants and moisturizing agents to your face, designed to boost overall skin health and help protect it from future damage.

Is HydraFacial Painful?

HydraFacial treatments are no more painful than the extraction and exfoliation methods used in other facial treatments. In fact, many of our clients report that HydraFacial treatments are less uncomfortable than some of our other facial treatments. Clients do not need any downtime and can apply makeup and resume all normal activities after concluding their session. 

How Soon Can You See Results and How Long Do They Last?

Most of our clients notice results immediately after their first session. The facial hydration benefits can last up to seven days. Many see increasing longevity of their results with additional sessions. While new clients realize the greatest benefits with HydraFacial treatments every two weeks, once the skin has acquired an overall improvement in health and hydration, they accrue the same benefits from monthly treatments.
