Hydrafacial™

HydraFacial will not only improve the look of your skin, but with frequent treatments, will restore skin health. Only HydraFacial uses patented technology to cleanse, extract, and hydrate. HydraFacial super serums are made with nourishing ingredients that create an instantly gratifying glow.

Six amazing facials in one:

  • Detox
  • Deep Cleanse and exfoliation
  • Acid Peel
  • Extraction
  • Hydrate and protect
  • Rejuvenation

HydraFacial™ treatment involves hydradermabrasion, a more advanced treatment to microdermabrasion, however there are differences:

  • Exfoliation process does not use any crystals.
  • A specially shaped spiral tip.
  • Vortex technology which aids exfoliation and remove impurities.
  • Pneumatically applied serums to cleanse hydrate and provide antioxidant infusion.

HydraFacial is indicated for the improvement in the appearance of:

  • Fine lines + Wrinkles
  • Elasticity + Firmness
  • Even Tone + Vibrancy
  • Skin Texture
  • Brown Spots and hyperpigmentation
  • Oily + acne prone skin
  • Congested skin and enlarged pores (blackheads)
  • Enlarged Pores

Hydradermabrasion is the technology behind HydraFacial. Introduced to the UK in 2009 as a more advanced treatment to microdermabrasion.

HydraFacial actively causes the skin to take up moisture during treatment. The HydraFacial has a special spiral tip with multiple edges to exfoliate the skin several times as the tip moves over the skin. Serums applied to the skin enable dead cells, sebum (skin’s oil) and impurities to be extracted.

HydraFacial philosophy is skin health for life™ and is therefore about lifestyle change requiring monthly hydrafacial treatments and a daily commitment to the application of home skin care products.

At Thames Skin Clinic we are committed to skin health and have a skin fitness program tailored to your personal skin needs.

HydraFacial treatment has 6 stages: 

  1. Detoxifying Lymphatic stage Gentle lymphatic massage techniques via a special suction hand-piece or finger tip drainage to increase blood circulation and detoxify, resulting in better overall skin.
  2. Deep Cleanse & Exfoliation – Dead skin cells and impurities are gently lifted using the vortex suction for a deep-cleansing result.
  3. Brightening Peel – Helps to loosen underlying debris within the pores by using a gentle glycolic and salicylic solution which helps to brightening your skin.
  4. Extraction – Using Hydrafacial patented technology and vortex fusion combined with salicylic acid, suction is used to deeply extract blackheads and impurities.
  5. LED STAGE LED application during which red, blue and/or infrared LED is applied to the Hydrafacial treated skin to aid rejuvenation and treat acne. We use our Dermalux LED flex within this stage at no extra cost, to give powerful results.
  6. Hydrate & Protect – A combination of hyaluronic acid, antioxidants and peptides replenish, plump and hydrate your skin.

At Thames Skin Clinic, we tailor the Hydrafacial to our patients concerns and include a complimentary booster serum within every treatment. One of the below is selected depending on your skin type:

  • ZO Skin health Brightalive boost – Minimizes the appearance of discoloration and brightens skin tone for an instantly gratifying glow.
  • Growth Factor Boost – Minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles to restore skin health and vitality.
  • Dermabuilder Boost – Minimizes signs of aging and recharges skin with a patented combination of peptides.
  • Britenol Boost – minimizes the appearance of dark spots and sun spots for an even complexion.
  • Murad Retinol Boost – Accelerates skin’s surface renewal and instantly plumps to minimise the look of wrinkles, even tone and boost youthful radiance.
  • NassifMD Hydraflucan Intense Hydration Boost – Hydrate, repair, and radiate your skin leaving it glowing.
You can also add on Hydrafacial PERK for lips or eyes to deeply condition these areas in particular.

The procedure

Following a consultation with one of our wonderful Thames Skin Therapists or your initial new patient consultation with Dr Hemming we will discuss your treatment goals and plan for your treatment. Thames Skin Clinic will check your medical history is suitable for treatment and you will sign a consent form. We record all of our patients photographs for comparison later.

If you have a history of cold sores an anti viral medication may be prescribed.

HydraFacial is used in combination with chemical peels, some skincare products, laser genesis and different types of tips if a more aggressive treatment is needed.

Your comfort levels and expectations are important factors which are considered in your consultation.

Treatment Areas

Treatment is a safe and effective way of improving your skin and making it more healthy.

HydraFacial is a mild treatment with subtle results including a freshening in the appearance and texture of skin.

Treatment improves

Used in combination with chemical peels and some skin products, LED therapy and options for different tips for more aggressive treatment.

HydraFacial is not suitable to treat deeper wrinkles, scars, deep hyperpigmentation or broken veins in the skin.

Side effects

Side effects are minimal if any.

Treatment is painless and doesn’t irritated the skin greatly. A few patients may experience slight tightness and redness of the skin which can last for a couple of hours. Treatments using peel products may prolong redness.

On very rare occasions redness may continue for a day or so and sensitive skin around the eyes can become swollen, a cold compress will help should this side effect occur.

The risk of scarring is very rare with this procedure.

Treatment is not suitable if you

  • are taking Roaccutane or oral isotretinoin within the last 12 months,
  • have active skin infection, cold sores
  • have problems with skin healing or lymphatic drainage.

Please discuss any current medication with the doctor, especially if you are taking aspirin on Ibuprofen. Medication may need to be stopped before treatment.

Aftercare

Use any post-treatment skincare products provided and ensure you have a good quality sun screen to protect your skin.

HydraFacial treatments vary by the area and prodcuts given to achieve the best results. We often get asked about the cost of treatment. At Thames Skin Clinic we pride ourselves on results rather than focus on the price of a treatment, it is more important that we get the correct quality of product rather than offer cut price treatments, products and services (especially when it comes to medical treatments). You will never see Thames Skin Clinic advertising services on social coupon sites such as Groupon as we believe they have a negative impact on our customer safety, results and satisfaction. We also wish to abide by the advertising regulator and work in a safe ethical manor.

Our prices reflect the skill, training and premier product choices we have made as well as the true reflection of the beautiful bespoke clinic surroundings.

To discuss Skin Fitness or HydraFacial treatment and for a detailed consultation regarding the best options for your treatment please call us today and book an initial consultation with our specialist practitioners. There is a charge for appointments with Dr Hemming.
