How it works
The SkinWave hydrafacial is a multi-step facial treatment.
The treatment begins with hydrogen-enriched infusion. The hydrogen molecules will penetrate your pores and when they do, they bond with the oxygen present in your skin cells. Active oxygen is linked to drying and aging. This bonding forms new water molecules. One of our trained aestheticians will then gently extract impurities and release the active oxygen. This unique SkinWave step provides antioxidant and moisturization benefits and reduces inflammation.
Next, we apply three specialized nutrient-rich solutions to optimize skin revitalization. During your initial consultation, Dr. Levitt will assess your specific skin needs and adjust the amount of each solution, making this a highly personalized treatment. The SkinWave hydrafacial infuses alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta-hydroxy acid (BHA), and hyaluronic acid (HA) deep into the skin to address common skincare needs: exfoliating (removing impurities and dead skin cells), oil control, and moisturization. Each treatment is customizable by adjusting the volume of one of these solutions for specific skin type and needs. For example, we may give dry skin more HA and less BHA, or we may deliver more BHA to breakouts and oily skin. Depending on the state of your skin, we may also perform manual extractions of milia or blackheads to ensure your pores are squeaky clean.
Finally, there are two hand pieces on the device that make the SkinWave hydrafacial stand out. Electroporation with red and blue LED temporarily opens pores to increase solution absorption and can address additional skin concerns, such as redness and acne. The contouring roller double-lifting handpiece glides over your skin with 360 rotation balls, stimulating blood and lymphatic circulation, massaging the area and enhancing skin elasticity.

What to expect
Besides helping you build the foundation of healthy skin, the SkinWave hydrafacial is also extremely relaxing.
Many of our patients express their desire for the facial to go on longer or to come in once a week for a treatment! In actuality, a monthly or quarterly SkinWave hydrafacial treatment is perfect to keep your skin looking beautiful, especially between more advanced cosmetic treatments like microneedling or lasers.
The beauty of a SkinWave hydrafacial is that it’s a beneficial treatment for all skin types and conditions.
Patients describe more vibrant, healthy looking and feeling skin immediately after a SkinWave treatment as well as for weeks to come. There is no downtime to worry about, and we customize the SkinWave hydrafacial treatment to each individual’s skin.
