I'm just about to go into the clinic to go and have a facial treatment one of
which is performed every 15 seconds somewhere in the world
very exciting there's a bit of a buzz about it on the internet at the moment
it is of course the HydraFacial treatment let's go on in! Okay guys so
I'm here today with my good friend Debbie Thomas advanced skin specialist I'm
just about to go for HydraFacial that's for a lot of surging?
what is that let me get on the bed so what do you see is it bad? well everyone
that comes in to me there's always a little bit of dehydration
mainly it's a pollution in London so obviously you want to suck all of that
out and away which is what the HydraFacial is so good at doing irritation
around the middle of the skin again that can just be a bit stress you know
convenience of modern lifestyle causing skin to flare up so we want to also then
infuse it with lots of antioxidants calming and hydrating and probably some
red light therapy just to again reinforce the calming and the
strengthening so I'm just going to kind of go with the flow see what your skin
is doing see how it's reacting and then I will change and change up the
treatment and and tailor it to what I feel you asking me to a well we're going
okay so this treatment right now is all over the internet which is weird because
actually been out for quite a lot of time hasn't it? so I can work with a
facial for nine years we've now got four of them in the clinic why do you think
it suddenly just had this big increase in interest and I actually think that
people are still lightly you know everyone likes them it's something it's
a little bit gross the tub that collects all of the dead skin and the the grime
and at the back I think I think actually
that's the bit everyone gets really excited about it also cleanses like
really deep cleanses the skin and then it infuses the skin with various
different serums which means that you kind of get nutrients hydration so it
cleanses hydrates and exfoliates in one food and the tip if you like over the
skin well very very soon so obviously with the HydraFacial we can use several
different serums so the first thing that I'm going to do on you is a one that is
more specifically for cleansing so has got some very mild acids in there and it
means that the rest of the treatment and your skin absorbs products more
effectively and everything looks brighter so I'm just doing a quick
manual cleanse first cuz I always like to just make sure any makeup and
pollution grime SPF and everything is off the skin first and what are you
using right now I'm actually using a medicate product cleanser that contains
again just a little bit of acid actually so just very mild and combination of
salicylic acid and look at glycolic in there it gets into the pores a little
bit acids are fantastic for actually getting inside the pores to help to
break down blockages where is a manual scrub that you do is good for cleaning
the surface but it will never really get into the pores so I always say add a bit
of acid in so now I'm going to choose the tip that
I'm going to use on your skin I've got two choices at this point there's a
really strong one and then there's a medium one because your skin is a little
bit inflamed I know you like strong but we're going to do medium it's how
abrasive they are so the orange tip you can see
these tiny little holes and actually it's a lot rougher when you rub it over
the skin and because of these little holes you actually get more suction so
the whole thing tends to be slightly more aggressive so more exfoliation but
also stimulates circulation more where is the traditional HydraFacial tip this
is the one that I used when I originally started this is the one that's got the
little swirly kind of thing on so I'm actually going to use a little swirly
one on you this little spiral causes a vortex sort
of delivery system of the serum so actually pushes the serums in a little
bit deeper when you have to traditional microphone Frasier so here's a bit
drying scratchy kind of satisfying in a way because you know it's slowing off
the dead skin cells but afterwards the skin can feel a bit tight and dry and
there's the crystals and things can be a little bit dry so it takes a few days
and then suddenly your skin kind of springs to life in it all it's all great
because we all know a good explanation leaves the skin glowing the Hydra facial
takes all of that away it how to fish a lot first system that basically combined
the three different things of cleansing hydrating and exfoliation in one it's a
bit like a carpet shampooer so we're actually pushing the cleansing
serum into the skin pocket and it kind of works its way in it kind of breaks
down some of those blockages it loosens up the dead skin cells it breaks down
any teas on the surface the pollution and
everything and then it's sick all away and puts it into the nice little
container at the back of the machine nice and empty at the moment I feel like
I'm about to have liposuction it's a mini liposuction clear pause definitely
so a nice empty container so this is going to be basically where all of the
glue is going to end up my three main serums that I work with so the first one
is just cleansing really and it's quite good for dry dehydrated skins if I
thought someone that has got more congested acne prone skin I can also add
in the second serum which is also a cleansing serum but it's a it's got some
Vita hydroxy acids in as well which are a little bit more targeted towards
actually breaking down pause the congestion pause helping with acne and I
quite like a little bit of salicylic acid for rosacea as well so I'm probably
gonna add some about it in just around where you've got that information so
everyone wants to know what it feels like to have a HydraFacial
only way that I can describe it personally
is it feels like you're being very vigorously licked by a cat so it's not
uncomfortable it's just a little bit weird I'm just
the serum to move through these I like it there yeah yeah so the serum is now
starting to come through this tube is the clean serum being coming in and
being pushed onto the skin and then the bigger tube is everything being sucked
off and taken into our little chamber at the back so what I want to achieve on
your skin is a nice pink blushing because what that means is all the blood
is rushing to the area and when blood rushes to the skin it brings with the
nutrients oxygen and I feel kind of like a very mini vacuum
yeah can he can you tell us a little bit more about the other tips that you will
leader - you put a tip tips and hardly exfoliating at all it's more about
product and fusion and third serum that we use that actually is
just an antioxidant serum so we can use that to push the antioxidants into the
skin without exfoliating any more and then we have the the tip that actually
every useful sort of extraction as I suppose it's a it's a much smaller tip
and which makes it more aggressive and on places like the nose or chins
it just means that we can just slightly stronger and suction and exfoliation to
help us to loosen up those deeper
who doesn't want the slightly hydrated prompt yep doing that
how often do you recommend somebody had the hydration how long is a piece of
string you know we skin condition what your issues are we
tend to do a few treatments closer together so maybe even weekly to give
the skin a really boost and sort of get it working better what we're trying to
do is we're trying to encourage our skin to behave in a slightly different way
we're trying to get it to became in a more healthy way so by giving it a kick
start by doing a few closer together and then you look at someone's skin and you
can kind of go to perhaps monthly or you don't need to do weekly long-term in
fact it could be a little bit to do that because there's only so much
exfoliation your skin my stereo action a lot of people rely on
treatments like this who have really manic lifestyles and perhaps aren't
healthy because they're rushing around so much and traveling so much so they
rely on these treatments more whereas people that are quite quite good at
managing yeah lifestyle with diet and things and using
products come in a bit less I always say it's like if you only brush your teeth
when you go to see the hygenist yeah you have to be doing something at home as
well otherwise it just doesn't make any sense
exactly you've got to maintain what you're doing this is that this is your
boost I'm boosting you but you need to maintain on a daily basis is that it
we've done we're not done we've not got that was cleaning only I'm going to
change over to the little tip looks exactly the same only it's smaller and
as I say it's slightly rougher edge today you will feel it a little bit more
but this is perfect for the nose and those pesky little pores that we all
have on our nose I feel like this is where it's all going to happen maybe
this is where all the gunk is going to appear in the liposuction tube at the
back then the healthier someone's and if they are already exfoliating lots
and cleaning lots and all of those kind of things probably going to see less in
the country - I thought I made it so quick the viewing public the Hydra
facial were only working on removing dead skin so if you don't have a lot of
dead skin cells because your excellent it using your retinols and
everything else you are going to have a lot less well
we'll see at the end whether or not I get medal
I enjoy not one of them you do actually see
the blockages like coming out let it over 30 once you actually see the head
of them lifting out okay that is second cleansing belt part
so now I just want to put the antioxidants in okay so it's a hide is
basically a serum containing by harmonic acid and antioxidants and we're just
going to infuse the skin with those so that it has a nice sort of pave over
thing oh okay yumminess so some of that some type of facial treatments they do
have extra serums that you can put into the skin and there's some peels that you
can have which actually get infused through the tip so more of a stronger
peel rather than just the very mild cleansing acids and they also do things
like peptides and so this looks very similar to the first one a similar size
but it's just it's a lot smoother the actual ridges on is pronounced so we're
not going to get I say as much of the exfoliation but it's the same vortex
it's that pushing in so we just want to really saturate the skin with as much
hydration as possible because hydrated skin is absolutely so antiox plus this
is the serum that I'm using now exactly what it says on the 10th antioxidants
plus hydration so perfect so with this one I'm not going to be moving up
skinning quite the same way this is more 'pushing' the serum in
letting the vortexes suck
is there anybody who shouldn't have hydro facial really I mean if you've got
very inflamed broken skin probably not ideal to be scraping it think you're
quite sensitive you can still have
hydro facial you just need to turn it all down so I can do various different
settings so I can use the vacuum and I can use a really strong vacuum which job
to do a little bit seeing all the different so this is the main one I use
on everyone which is a vacuum of eighteen if I take it up to
take not that's it which I would never do on a client but this is Jesse
Oh
so and you can see much more redness up a lot quicker somewhere with that done
but can I have a look at the gunk so bearing in mind that the serum that was
coming out there is all clear that's not terrible no I have seen it before you
can see more lumpy bits in there and stuff I think we're probably not going
to see that with you because you just
but it is like cloudy you can see there is definitely some bits floating around
in there well thank you very much for that
I do feel nice and refreshed I do feel like my skin definitely is more hydrated
you know what it's like when you work in this kind of industry you often don't
get to have the treatments that you would really suggest what other people
so I'm really glad that I could get this opportunity to have my Hydra facial
hope you guys really enjoyed the video if you've got any questions about the
Hydra facial jump on in the comment section below and I will pass them on to
