Yes. From past experience, HydraFacial can often be combined with many types of lasers in the same session, in most but the most sensitive patients.
HydraFacial MD is perhaps one of the best known hydradermabrasion facial, worldwide. Its Vortex technology uses a combination of oxygen and aqueous solutions at supersonic speeds to remove debris and surface dead cells that are then suctioned away. This provides gentle but effective professional exfoliation and pore purification.
The supersonic micro-droplet jet also results in a pressured widening of micro-canals in the outer skin layers that facilitate hydration in the same pass, as well as greater delivery of antioxidants and nutrients.
Hence, this popular clinical facial can be used to enhance different laser treatments in multiple ways. For example:
- improving the penetration of laser by gently exfoliating away the surface dead cells,
- clarifying clogged pores before laser toning,
- maintaining acne control in the course of scar resurfacing laser,
- or maximising skin radiance with brightening lasers by boosting hydration and antioxidant levels in the skin.
Of course, your doctor would be in the best position to advise you properly regarding any combination treatments, after considering:
- the type of laser,
- the intensity of treatment and
- your individual skin condition.
