A HydraFacial is a cosmetic procedure that uses special devices to cleanse and hydrate your skin. It usually uses patented technology to clean the pores and get rid of the skin's dead skin cells. The treatment starts with loosening and opening the pores and then prepping the skin using a mix of glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and several botanical ingredients for better cleansing. Once the pores are open enough, the professional uses vacuum-powered extraction equipment that gets rid of the dirt and oils clogged inside the pores. It is a non-invasive procedure and is practically painless.
