On Friday I went and had my second round of treatments and facials with Urban Skin & Beauty. It's about a month after I had my first round of facials. I wrote about that here.
My skin has already started to look a lot better after my first treatment. I had a lot of big acne underneath my jawline that finally started to ease off, and heal! (Now I've just got to stop picking! oops)
HYDRAFACIAL
In our second session Nicole did a hydrafacial as well as an LED treatment.
Nicole likes to describe Hydrafacials as "microdermabrasion on steroids" as it offers so much more for your skin than just surface exfoliation.
A Hydrafacial is a 3 step treatment:
CLEANSE + EXFOLIATE
The first step involves deep cleansing and exfoliation to uncover a new layer of skin on the face. The little Hydrafacial wand felt nice and kind of funny. But not uncomfortable at all, in case anyone was unsure. It's a quite gentle procedure overall.
PEEL + EXTRACT
The second step has a salicylic and glycolic peel to loosen impurities within the pores for a more gentle and painless extraction.
HYDRATE + PROTECT
The final step effectively delivers powerful antioxidants and peptides into the skin for immediate hydration.
This procedure is perfect for all skin types and gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin. There is literally no redness or downtime.
Hydrafacials can address numerous skincare concerns you might have like.
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Oily and congested skin
- Active acne
- Enlarged pores
- Skin texture
- Even skin tone and vibrancy
LED TREATMENT
Last but not least, Nicole used the LED Treatment mask. We did a combination of the red and green light. Each one stays on for a certain amount of time, before switching to another colour. I'm not sure how long exactly as I'm just chilling in the mask not looking at the clock.
The red light in the mask stimulates collagen production and elastin in the skin and increases hydration. The green light increases the overall healing process of the skin.
We finished off with a antioxidant/hyaluronic serum. Then I left feeling refreshed and glowy (I immediately went and got my nails done to be honest as it's just around the corner!)
