HydraFacial
The HydraFacial is a non-invasive hydra-dermabrasion procedure that uses patented technology to cleanse, detoxify, rejuvenate, and hydrate the skin with immediate results and long-lasting benefits.
At The Private Clinic we offer 3 types of HydraFacial treatments at our London Harley Street, Birmingham and Bournemouth clinics.
- Skin Health For Life – This is the 6 stage HydraFacial treatment.
- Prescriptive HydraFacial – This treatment will include a prescribed booster serum.
- HydraGenesis – This is the 6 stage HydraFacial treatment combined with our Laser Genesis treatment.
Why choose HydraFacial?
What sets the HydraFacial apart from other procedures is the patented spiral tip design of the HydraFacial Vortex-Fusion serum delivery system. The unique spiral design delivers the multiple steps of a HydraFacial treatment which cleanses, exfoliates and extracts impurities of the skin while at the same time replenishing the skin with vital nutrients including antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid.
A HydraFacial treatment is ideal for helping to reduce the appearance of:
- Ageing Skin
- Dull Skin
- Acne
- Pigmentation / Brown Spots
- Oily and Congested Skin
- Enlarged Pores
The HydraFacial treatment is suitable for all skin types. Our expert skin practitioners will be able to recommend specific treatment serums to help customise the treatment to target areas of concern.
A growing number of celebrities and skin care professionals are enjoying this treatment and its amazing benefits. It is a perfect treatment choice if you want to look radiant for a special occasion, a red carpet event and for brides-to-be.
HydraFacial Keravive
HydraFacial Keravive is a scalp treatment that cleanses and exfoliates the scalp to unclog follicles and deliver growth factors and skin proteins. Two of the three steps are performed in-clinic, and the third is a take-home spray that optimises results.
Whilst this is not a direct hair loss treatment, it can enhance scalp health and promote hair growth. By washing, exfoliating, and nourishing the scalp, it can treat concerns such as clogged follicles and poor circulation, both of which can contribute to hair loss. While it may not be a cure-all for hair loss, it can increase the efficacy of other therapies and overall hair health.
- Promotes hair growth
- Revives the scalp
- Eliminates oils (linked with certain scalp conditions)
- Nourishes the hair
- Improves hair health
- Takes just 20-30 minutes
