HydraFacial
What defines Detox?
Detox comes from the Latin detoxification = detoxification and is not an invention of the present time. Already at the end of the 19th century in the course of industrialization there were the first fasting and sweating cures for detoxification; followed by various fitness trends and countless nutritional diets. In addition to the food and leisure industries, the cosmetics industry has also discovered “detox” as a market for itself. Products that previously improved skin aging, wrinkling, skin problems, tired or blemished skin are experiencing a second renaissance as detox products. Provided with new promising and sometimes even vegan active ingredients and ingredients, the “skin detoxifiers” can be purchased in well-stocked store shelves or online stores. Detox products in cosmetics are a trend with many possibilities. They complement skin care and help the skin protect itself against the many everyday stresses.
Types of detox treatments
There are several types of detox treatments in the beauty industry, such as face masks, scrubs and massages, all of which aim to cleanse the skin of toxins and promote its natural beauty. Some detox treatments also use special ingredients such as activated charcoal or clay to draw toxins out of the skin. In addition, detox treatments may include the use of infrared or steam saunas, which can help draw toxins out of the body through sweat. These treatments may also include the use of special technologies such as ultrasound and radiofrequency to enhance the effects of the detox treatment.
In the field of skin rejuvenation, HydraFacial is considered a true revolution, as the detox treatment has both a firming and smoothing immediate effect. A treatment session lasts approximately 45 minutes and includes four different steps: cleansing the skin with simultaneous removal of dead skin cells, gentle exfoliation that dissolves debris and dirt particles from the pores, painless deep pore cleansing, and highly effective moisturizing.
However, it is important to note that detox treatments should not be considered medical treatments in the beauty industry. While they can help cleanse the skin and give it a glowing appearance, they cannot penetrate deep into the body and remove harmful toxins.
Detox treatment instead of Botox: HydraFacial
HydraFacial is a non-invasive skin treatment designed to help improve the appearance of the skin. The detox treatment combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration and antioxidants in a single session to cleanse, nourish and hydrate the skin. HydraFacial is suitable for most skin types and can help with a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone, clogged pores and acne. The treatment usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes and is painless and non-invasive.
The HydraFacial treatment is performed in several steps, beginning with a thorough cleansing of the skin. A gentle acid peel is then applied to remove dead skin cells and impurities. During this process, a light fruit acid serum not only softens sebum, but also eliminates bacteria and smooths minor wrinkles. The serum must be left on for a short time before pimples or even blackheads can be literally sucked up. Then, a vacuum suction is used to remove impurities and blockages from the pores. In the following step, various skin care serums find their way into the pore-deeply cleansed skin. The skin is cared for with a special solution and moisturized. These are usually antioxidants, vitamins and, of course, hyaluronic acid. Finally, a short red light irradiation and a gentle massage with a high-quality day cream or serums complete the detox treatment.
HydraFacial immediately provides a highly visible effect, the skin appears relaxed and significantly rejuvenated. To best maintain the freshness effect, the treatment should be repeated every four weeks. If the skin is very damaged or sensitive before the first detox treatment, a Detox HydraFacial intensive treatment is recommended, whereby the interval between the individual treatments should not be longer than 14 days. The short intervals between detox treatments have a very simple reason: Hydra Facial also stimulates collagen synthesis, which provides a further freshness boost. However, it is important to note that HydraFacial, like any other skin treatment, is not suitable for everyone. Individuals with certain skin conditions, such as severe acne or rosacea, should consult a qualified dermatologist before beginning the treatment to ensure that it is suitable for them and will not have any negative effects.
Combination with high quality skin care products is important
In principle, HydraFacial is suitable for all skin types. Nothing stands in the way of a detox treatment even if you have acne or other impurities. In between the individual applications, care products that are specially adapted to this treatment method are recommended for daily cosmetics at home. A combination of several antioxidants (for example, arnica flower extract, horse chestnut extract and green tea) can additionally help detoxify the skin. Products containing hyaluronic acid also help to deeply hydrate the skin.
Certain active ingredients can also additionally help with detoxification. Characteristic of detox products are the contained, mostly plant extracts and their ingredients. One finds there for example: Asteriscus Graveolens (Terpene), Moringa seeds (Zeatin), Goji berry (Zeaxanthin), tiger grass (Asiaticosid), Phytoplankton (Omega-3) or Yams root (Diosgenin). Behind these unusual sounding names one discovers antioxidants, vitamins, peptides, essential amino acids, trace elements etc. on closer inspection.
