HydraFacial is a renowned treatment method from the USA that has caught the attention of Hollywood celebrities in recent years and is widely referred to as a "red carpet" treatment. In recent years, it has also found its way to Norway. This innovative skin care treatment is among the most sought-after treatments at several clinics both nationally and internationally. With its reputation for delivering brilliant results, HydraFacial has quickly become a favorite among those seeking an effective and gentle treatment for the skin that provides short downtime and a beautiful glow.

What is HydraFacial?

HydraFacial is an advanced treatment machine that uses its unique technology to deeply cleanse the skin and effectively remove impurities from the pores using a gentle vacuum extraction system. This revolutionary treatment is now available at Nordstrandklinikken has become a favorite among skin enthusiasts due to its comprehensive approach to skin care.

4-step treatment with HydraFacial

The treatment is carried out in four steps, each designed to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize the skin:

1. Cleansing and Gentle Exfoliation

This first step involves thorough cleansing of the skin followed by gentle exfoliation. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells and leaves the skin soft and smooth. Ingredients such as glycolic acid and salicylic acid help to promote gentle exfoliation without causing excessive peeling of the skin.

2. Extraction and Hydration

In this step, HydraFacial uses its vacuum technology to gently extract impurities and excess oil from the pores. This process is painless and leaves the skin feeling fresh and clean. At the same time, the skin is nourished and moisturized to maintain a healthy balance.

3. Moisture and Protection

After the extraction phase, moisturizing ingredients and antioxidants are applied. This step is designed to maximize the skin's natural glow and protect it from harmful environmental influences.

4. Optional Step for Extra Benefits

For those who want extra benefits, we also offer a fourth step. In this step, we use serums from renowned brands such as Zo Skin Health or Dr. Nassif. These serums are formulated with specific ingredients to address different skin concerns, such as anti-aging, pigmentation, or hydration.

What kind of results can you expect? 

After a HydraFacial treatment, you can expect several positive results for your skin. These results may vary depending on your skin type, condition, and how many treatments you undergo, but typically include the following:

• Cleaner skin: HydraFacial provides a thorough deep cleanse of the skin by removing dirt, oil, and impurities from the pores. This results in a cleaner and clearer skin surface.
• Improved skin texture: The exfoliation and peeling performed during the treatment help to remove dead skin cells and smooth out the skin's texture, making the skin smoother and more even.
• Reduced pores: The treatment can help reduce the visibility of enlarged pores, giving the skin a smoother and more refined surface.
• Reduces fine lines and wrinkles: HydraFacial helps stimulate collagen production, which is essential for skin elasticity and youthfulness. This can result in a reduction of fine lines and wrinkles over time.
• Improved skin tone and radiance: Exfoliation and the application of nourishing serums help to improve skin tone and give the skin a healthy glow.
• Hydrated skin: An important aspect of HydraFacial is the hydration of the skin. The treatment adds moisture and nutrients to the skin.
• Reduced acne and blemishes: HydraFacial can help reduce acne, pimples, and other blemishes by cleansing pores and regulating oil production.
• Makeup stays on better: As your skin becomes smoother, cleaner, and more hydrated, makeup can be applied more evenly and look better on your skin.

It is important to note that results may vary from person to person, and regular maintenance treatments may be necessary to maintain the best results. One of our cosmetic nurses will help you understand what to expect based on your individual situation and skin type.

Who is not suitable for HydraFacial treatment?

Although the HydraFacial treatment is very versatile and suitable for many people, there are some cases where the treatment may not be appropriate or should be avoided. Here are some situations where the HydraFacial treatment may not be suitable:

• Open wounds or injuries: If you have open wounds, scabs, or infections in the treatment area, you should postpone treatment until the skin has healed.
• Severe skin inflammation: People with severe acne or inflamed skin may experience discomfort or worsening of their condition after treatment.

How long does the treatment take?

The duration of a HydraFacial treatment can vary depending on various factors, including which steps are included in the treatment, whether any additional steps are selected, and how extensively the treatment is customized to your specific needs. 

Generally speaking, a basic HydraFacial treatment usually takes about 30 minutes.

How many treatments do you need?

The number of treatments recommended for HydraFacial may vary depending on several factors, including your current skin condition, the desired results, and any specific goals you may have. 

In general, a single HydraFacial treatment can provide immediate results, including a fresher skin tone and a healthy glow. However, a series of treatments is usually recommended to achieve more long-term and deeper improvements.

For most people, a series of 3 to 6 treatments is recommended, with intervals of 2 to 4 weeks between each treatment. This time frame gives your skin time to regenerate and benefit from the results of the treatment.

Is there any downtime?

No, the HydraFacial treatment is known to be a "non-invasive" treatment that generally does not involve any downtime. This means that you can usually resume your daily activities immediately after treatment, without the need for recovery time or special precautions.

After a HydraFacial treatment, your skin may be slightly red or have a fresh glow, but this will usually subside shortly after treatment. Some people may experience mild sensitivity or tightness immediately after treatment, but this is temporary and normal. However, it is recommended to avoid sun exposure and the use of strong cosmetic products immediately after treatment to maintain skin comfort.

This absence of downtime makes HydraFacial a popular treatment choice for those with busy schedules who want to improve the health and appearance of their skin without having to take time off from their daily activities.

What alternative treatments can I choose?

There are several different treatments that can achieve a result you will be happy with. The best thing to do is to discuss this with your cosmetic nurse. We also offer Carbon Peel (Hollywood Peel) from Fotona, which can do a lot to remove impurities. There are different technologies available, and they do different things depending on what you want to achieve. The clinic is equipped with the latest equipment, which means that the choice of treatments can be tailored to your needs.
