What is a hydrofacial?

A hydrofacial, also known as hydradermabrasion, is a non-invasive skincare treatment that combines several facial rejuvenation techniques to improve the overall health and appearance of the skin. 

We have the AquafirmeXS system at our office that delivers medical-grade hydrofacials and medical-grade hydrodrofacials with exosomes. Read on to learn more about these types of treatments. 

What is a medical-grade hydrofacial?

A medical-grade hydrofacial refers to a hydrofacial treatment that is performed in a medical setting, such as a dermatologist’s office or a medical spa, under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional. While the basic principles of a medical-grade hydrofacial are similar to a standard hydrofacial, there are a few key distinctions:

Supervised by Medical Professionals

A medical-grade hydrofacia procedure is overseen by a licensed healthcare provider, such as a dermatologist or a trained medical aesthetician. This ensures that the treatment is tailored to the individual’s specific skin needs and that any underlying skin conditions are addressed appropriately.

Advanced Technology and Formulations

Medical-grade hydrofacials involve the use of more advanced equipment and medical-grade skincare formulations. These formulations often contain higher concentrations of active ingredients, allowing for a more targeted and potent treatment. 

Customization for Clinical Concerns

Medical-grade hydrofacials can be customized to address specific clinical concerns, such as acne, rosacea, hyperpigmentation, or other dermatological issues. The treatment plan is adjusted based on the patient’s medical history and skin condition.

Combination with Medical Procedures

In some cases, medical-grade hydrofacials may be combined with other medical procedures, such as laser treatments or microneedling, to enhance the overall results. 

What are exosomes?

Exosomes act as messengers between cells, encouraging communication over short and long distances. Exosomes are used in tissue repair and regeneration processes to help with the process of wound healing, angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels), and the strengthening of body tissue.

What is a medical-grade hydrofacial with exosomes?

Exosome facial therapy works through the application of exosomes on the skin’s surface. Through a medical-grade hydrofacial, these exosomes are efficiently absorbed into the skin. This process quickly improves the skin’s overall appearance, and noticeable differences can be seen after just one treatment. For best results and for maintenance purposes, several treatment sessions are recommended. The benefits of exosomes can last for several months. 

What are the benefits of medical-grade hydrofacials and medical-grade hydrofacials with exosomes?

Medical-grade hydrofacials and medical-grade hydrofacials with exosomes both provide a number of benefits compared to standard facials. The AquafirmeXS system is less expensive and with better results in fewer treatments vs. competing technologies. Active ingredients applied to the face (including exosomes) are quickly absorbed and begin working almost immediately with the medical-grade hydrofacial process. Medical-grade hydrofacials are also non-invasive and require minimal downtime compared to more invasive treatment options.
