Hydra Dermal
Facial
Gentle, non-invasive facial treatment
Hydra Dermal Facial is a non-invasive facial treatment that combines gentle exfoliation, cleansing and hydration in one session.
01
About the treatment
During the treatment, a specialised handpiece is passed over the skin to gently remove surface debris while fluid is applied to the skin. The treatment can be tailored according to individual skin type and concerns following consultation.
Hydra Dermal Facial may help improve the appearance and feel of dull, dry or congested skin and leave the skin feeling smoother and refreshed.
At Aglow Aesthetics, each treatment is selected according to the individual’s skin needs. Treatment suitability, expected outcomes and appropriate aftercare will be discussed during consultation. Individual experiences and results may vary.
How it works
How does Hydra Dermal
Facial work?
A Hydra Dermal Facial is performed in several gentle stages to cleanse, exfoliate and hydrate the skin.
01
Cleanse
The treatment begins with cleansing to remove make-up, surface oils and everyday impurities from the skin.
02
Exfoliate
A specialised Hydra Dermal handpiece is moved across the skin using controlled fluid flow and gentle exfoliation to help remove dead surface skin cells.
03
Clear surface debris
Gentle suction is used to help remove loosened debris and excess oil from the skin and pores.
04
Hydrate & finish
Hydrating skincare products are applied according to the individual’s skin needs. The treatment is completed with appropriate moisturiser and SPF protection.
02
What to expect
Hydra Dermal Facial is designed to leave the skin feeling cleansed, hydrated and refreshed, with a smoother-looking surface. Individual responses and results can vary. Some people may experience temporary redness or sensitivity following treatment.
Before treatment, your skin will be assessed to determine suitability and allow the treatment to be tailored to your individual skin type and concerns.
