Hydra Facial MD 2.0
If I were to bottle up my skin goals into one desire, it would be to have a post-facial glow at all times. There’s nothing like dewy, luminous glazed skin and I try my very best to maintain that look in between facials. Typically the radiance dwindles after a few days, but that’s until my last facial cracked the code. When trying the new Hydra Facial MD 2.0 at BODY, I anticipated lustrous skin but what I didn’t expect was for this facial to crack the code in bottling up the glow of a fresh facial for weeks to come.
About 7 days after my facial, I saw my best friend and at the risk of sounding hyperbolic, I’ll use her words, not mine. “WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR SKIN!? Your skin looks perfect. You look like you have new skin –– I need to get whatever you had done.” Now three weeks since the Hydra Facial MD 2.0, my skin still looks radiant and I have to share my experience of this mega facial that’s coming to the BODY spa menu soon.
I saw Susie, a seasoned, intentional esthetician at BODY with incredible hands and knowledge of skin. If you’re not familiar with a Hydra Facial MD it’s an effective resurfacing and anti-aging treatment that utilizes Hydradermabrasion technology. The tool creates a penetrating vortex of specialized fluids to cleanse, exfoliate, extract, and hydrate while infusing antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid. You can expect benefits like the improvement of fine lines, wrinkles, acne, hyperpigmentation, congested pores, and uneven skin tone (a big one for me). If you’ve had a Hydra Facial MD, you know how incredible it makes your skin look, here's what makes the 2.0 different:
Here are the steps you can expect from the HydraFacial MD 2.0:
DNA Skin Institute Créme of Nectar Cleanse - a mild, effective herbal cleansing emulsion that cleanses while also protecting the skin's natural moisture balance.
HydraFacial MD Treatment - promotes elasticity and firmness, addresses fine lines and wrinkles, stimulates hydration, and aids in dark spots, redness, and pigmentation, while reducing pore size.
Lymphatic Drainage - de-puffs, reducing the natural swelling of the face, improves circulation, relieves facial tension, and alleviates congestion in the sinuses.
Hydra Facial Extractions - the Hydra Facial tool unclogs and reduces congestion by removing debris from clogged pores.
LED Red Light Therapy - aids in skin healing and restoration such as improving the skin's appearance, and reducing wrinkles, scars, redness, and acne.
DNA Skin Institute Ionic Peel - a highly effective peel based on your needs with either Lacto Ionic, Glyco Ionic, or Sal Ionic gel. They deeply exfoliate outer layers of thickened or damaged skin leaving a smoother and healthier appearance with more targeted benefits depending on which you use.
Manual Extractions - to further cleanse and unclog the skin, Susie went in to manually remove any blackheads, whiteheads, or blemishes found in my skin to eliminate all blockages.
Custom Mask - Depending on your skin’s needs, your BODY esthetician will apply a custom mask. Mine was a moisture mask as my skin is naturally very dry.
DNA CryoStem Cells - enhances and promotes cellular communication while infusing a vital nutrient base required for optimal skin cell duplication and renewal. Benefits include the reduction in wrinkles and fine lines, deep hydration, firming effects, reduced hyperpigmentation, sebum production regulation, promotes collagen and elastin production, and reducesscaring. DNA Cryo stimulates 71% Collagen and Elastin, so it continues to improve skin over time.
Custom Serums by DNA Skin Institute - Serums based on your skin's needs whether it’s dry, needs more radiance, is anti-aging, or acne-prone.
Super Rich Moisture by DNA Skin Institute - A healthy, super rich dose of moisture to lock in the session and send you off with a plump, hydrated glow.
Susie told me the results of this facial would continue to build for days and weeks after the service and she was spot on. My face continues to carry the radiance I left with a few weeks ago. My skin feels newer, clearer, and brighter in a way that I haven’t felt before –– especially not weeks after a facial. With a gentle peel that felt like it was just strong enough for what my skin could handle and gentle enough to where my skin wasn’t peeling off, rather I experienced a more superficial exfoliating peel. I cannot wait to get this facial again, it’s truly one of the best I’ve ever had and a must for anyone who wants to walk out of a facial with the works while keeping it as non-invasive as possible.
