HydraFacial

Conveniently located to serve the areas of San Jose, CA

A HydraFacial is a minimally invasive skincare treatment designed to improve the appearance of your skin using a combination of cleansing, exfoliation, hydration therapy, and serum infusion. Created for all skin types, HydraFacial provides noticeable outcomes without significant downtime or irritation. 

Over time, it is natural for skin imperfections to worsen or become apparent. Deep wrinkles, fine lines, dullness, and acne are some of the most common skin concerns people have, just to name a few. Not only are skin imperfections frustrating from an aesthetic perspective, but they can also be a sign of diminishing skin health. While many facial rejuvenation procedures exist to combat these issues, they often require more extensive procedures that are associated with more demanding recovery periods. If you are struggling with skin imperfections and are looking to improve both your appearance and skin health without a surgical procedure, you could be an ideal candidate for HydraFacial.

Led by Dr. Thang Tran, who is assisted by a talented team of Nurse Practitioners, True You Medical Aesthetic has developed a reputation as the best in the Bay Area for providing stunning results with a variety of cosmetic treatments. We offer numerous facial rejuvenation procedures, including the HydraFacial. At True You Medical Aesthetic, you can immerse yourself in a realm where beauty intertwines with wellness, with cutting-edge technology that can help you unlock the potential of your skin’s radiance.

About the HydraFacial

The HydraFacial is a skin rejuvenation treatment that uses a patented device to cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate the skin in one comprehensive session. This multi-step treatment incorporates the use of customized serums tailored to meet each patient’s specific needs. The unique technology hydrates and nourishes the skin, allowing for improved absorption of active ingredients to ensure optimal results.

The procedure can benefit different skin types and concerns, from oily and acne-prone skin to drier and more sensitive skin. With its versatility and effectiveness, the HydraFacial has gained significant traction, appealing to many patients who are seeking comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Benefits

HydraFacial offers numerous advantages for individuals looking to enhance their skin’s appearance. Some of these benefits might include:

  • Deep Cleansing: HydraFacial penetrates deep into the pores to effectively remove dirt, oil, and impurities, resulting in thoroughly cleansed skin.
  • Exfoliation: The exfoliation process eliminates dead skin cells and debris, revealing fresher and brighter skin.
  • Hydrates Skin: The infusion of hydrating serums helps to lock moisture into the skin, maintaining a plump and youthful appearance.
  • Anti-Aging Properties: Some of the active ingredients in the HydraFacial stimulate collagen production, improving skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of wrinkles over time.
  • Treats Acne: This treatment effectively cleanses blocked pores, which helps reduce acne flare-ups and improves overall skin clarity. (2)
  • Improved Skin Texture: A regular series of HydraFacial treatments can lead to smoother skin and reduced texture irregularities.

Preparation

The preparation process for HydraFacial procedures is minimal when compared to other major facial rejuvenation procedures. The team at True You Medical Aesthetic will give you a detailed set of preparation guidelines to ensure that your HydraFacial experience is both pleasant and effective. Patients are often advised to avoid harsh exfoliators or chemical peels for at least one week before their treatment, and to refrain from using retinoids or other products that may irritate the skin before their appointment. We also advise that patients stay well-hydrated in the days leading up to their treatment, as hydration promotes better results.

Procedure

A HydraFacial procedure is a relatively simple process that is often completed in less than an hour. Treatment begins with a True You Medical Aesthetic professional cleansing your skin to remove any superficial makeup or debris. The patented HydraFacial device then exfoliates the skin to remove dead skin cells, revealing fresher, healthier-looking skin. Following this, we will apply a gentle acid peel to remove deeper impurities and debris, ultimately enhancing the treatment’s effects. Next, we use gentle suction to address blockages in pores. Afterward, we apply hydrating serums containing antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, and peptides that are simultaneously infused into your skin, ensuring deep nourishment.

After Your HydraFacial

One of the appeals of HydraFacial treatment is that there is no downtime required. After your treatment, you may notice a slight redness, but this typically subsides soon afterward. Most patients can resume normal activities after the procedure with no restrictions. However, patients should make a conscious effort to stay hydrated and use a gentle cleanser for several days following the treatment. Additionally, it is essential to protect your skin from sun exposure by applying sunscreen daily. If you have any questions or concerns after your HydraFacial, the True You Medical Aesthetic team will be available to guide you.

Results

Some of the results from a HydraFacial are visible immediately, with many individuals seeing refreshed, radiant skin right after the session. Continued treatments yield enhanced long-term improvements to skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. For optimal results, it is sometimes recommended that patients undergo several HydraFacial treatments spread out over time.
