Hydrafacial for the Back

Hydrafacial for the back

When we think of skincare, the face most often takes center stage.

However, our backs can also benefit from the same level of care and attention, especially since it’s an area prone to many concerns such as acne, clogged pores, and uneven texture. Enter the Hydrafacial for the back – a treatment that brings the same benefits of the popular facial to a larger, often neglected area.

What is a Hydrafacial for the Back?

A Hydrafacial for the back is a non-invasive, multi-step treatment designed to cleanse, exfoliate, extract impurities, and hydrate the skin.

This treatment utilizes patented Vortex-Fusion technology to deliver serums and other beneficial substances deep into the skin.

It’s suitable for all skin types and offers immediate results with no downtime.

Benefits to Hydrafacial for the Back

  • Deep Cleansing: Removes dirt, oil, and other impurities that can clog pores and lead to breakouts.
  • Exfoliation: Gently exfoliates dead skin cells, promoting a smoother and more even skin texture.
  • Hydration: Infuses the skin with hydrating serums that leaves it feeling soft and supple.
  • Acne Treatment: Helps to reduce the occurrence of acne by deeply cleansing and extracting impurities.
  • Improved Skin Tone: Brightens and evens out skin tone, reducing the appearance of hyperpigmentation and sun damage.
  • Reduced Signs of Aging: Minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and promotes youthful-looking skin.
  • No Downtime: Unlike more invasive procedures, HydraFacial allows you to resume normal activities immediately after treatment.

The Hydrafacial for the Back Treatment

  1. Cleansing and Exfoliation:

    • The treatment begins with a thorough cleanse to remove surface impurities.
    • A gentle exfoliation follows, using a mix of physical and chemical exfoliants to slough off dead skin cells.
  2. Acid Peel:

    • A mild glycolic and salicylic acid peel is applied to loosen debris from pores without causing irritation.
  3. Extraction:

    • Using the Vortex-Fusion technology, the practitioner painlessly extracts blackheads, whiteheads, and other impurities from the pores.
  4. Hydration:

    • The skin is then infused with hydrating and nourishing serums, customized to address specific skin concerns.
  5. Protection:

    • Finally, an application of protective antioxidants and peptides helps to maintain the results and protect the skin from environmental damage.

After Care Proceeding Your Hydrafacial for the Back

  • Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help your skin stay hydrated.
  • Avoid Direct Sunlight: Protect your back from sun exposure by wearing sunscreen or clothing that covers the treated area.
  • Skip Intense Workouts: Avoid strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours post-treatment to minimize sweating, which can irritate freshly treated skin.
  • Gentle Skincare Routine: Use gentle, non-comedogenic products to avoid clogging pores and irritating the skin.
  • Follow Practitioner’s Advice: Adhere to any specific aftercare instructions provided by your skincare professional to ensure optimal results.

Schedule Your Hydrafacial for the Back

A Hydrafacial for the back is a luxurious and effective way to extend the benefits of advanced skincare to a commonly overlooked area.

By incorporating this treatment into your skincare routine, you can achieve clearer, smoother, and more radiant skin on your back.

The Ultimate Guide to Microneedling 2024

Microneedling 2024

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy is a medical aesthetic procedure that uses very small needles to repeatedly penetrate layers of the skin in order to create a wound healing cascade.

This results in microscopic holes or microchannels in the dermis.

This treatment improves the appearance of acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, skin tone and texture.

History of Microneedling:

In the 1950’s mesotherapy was discovered by Dr. Michel Pistor. He used a meso device with one needle.

He came up with the concept that pricking the skin would promote collagen formation.

Then in 1995, subcision came around which was a new method of treating depressed scars and wrinkles.

Following subcision, came needle dermabrasion in 1997.

This treatment involved using a tattoo pistol to treat scars.

Patients saw improvement in scar texture, appearance and color, however this treatment was very time and labor intensive due to use of only one needle.

In 1998, Dr. Des Fernandes from South Africa developed a small needling stamping device and presented his study on needling at a conference in San Francisco.

Dr. Des Fernandes microneedling stamp

By the year 2000, the first medical Microneedling device called the Dermaroller was invented by Horst Liebl.

This device consisted of many fine needles on a drum shaped roller.

By the mid-2000’s, Microneedling grew popular in medical offices, medspas, and with patients.

In 2018, the SkinPen Microneedling device was FDA cleared to improve the appearance of acne scars of adults 22 years of age and older.

It was designed for use by licensed healthcare practitioners or individuals directed by practitioners.

The science behind the Microneedling treatment

The skin goes through three phases of wound healing.

First the skin is injured which causes inflammation and releases growth factors.

Then the tissue goes into the proliferation phase where the fibroblasts release growth factors, glycoproteins, and collagen causing the epidermal cells to migrate to the wound.

Then tissue and capillaries form, and fibroblasts continue to proliferate.

In this phase, the dermal thickness increases.

In the last phase of microneedling wound healing, the tissue is remodeled which causes a skin tightening effect by promoting fresh new collagen.

Complete tissue remodeling can take place from 3 weeks to 1 year.

Most remodeling completes after 6 months.

A study by Fernandes, D. Oral showed 400% more collagen was produced after 6 months following a Microneedling treatment.

Microneedling for Wrinkles & Acne Scars

As we age, our skin thins and our epidermal layer of skin thickness decreases.

One study showed that the thickness of collagen in a 2 year old dermis is about 1.37 um vs. the thickness of collagen in a 90 year old has an average of .52 um.

Healthy Solutions Medspa

 

Age-related dermal collagen changes during development, maturation and ageing – a morphometric and comparative study. V. Morcas Garcec, et. Al pg. 101.

The collagen loss surrounding the scar creates a cave like and shadowing appearance

When combining the effects of aging skin with uneven acne scars, the result is a more prominent appearance of acne scars.

With Microneedling, the wound healing process creates collagen and increases the thickness of the dermis to create a more a youthful appearance as well as helps to repair acne scars.

To reduce the appearance of acne scars in adults and improve the appearance of surrounding skin, you must treat both effectively.

SkinPen Microneedling Bucks County, PA

 

Acne scar Microneedling treatment with SkinPen

Frequently Asked Treatment Questions:

Microneedling near me SkinPen

What is the best and safest medical grade Microneedling device?

The SkinPen is the only FDA cleared and legally marketed automated, non-surgical Microneedling device on the market. It is proven safe and effective to treat and improve the appearance of acne scars in adults aged 22 and older.

What are some side effects of Microneedling?

Dryness, rough skin, tightness, redness, itching, peeling, discomfort, tenderness and burning are some of the side effects that some patients have seen last from 1 to 6 days post Microneedling.

How will my skin look after Microneedling?

Your skin may have an appearance of a mild sunburn to moderate sunburn.

What are the contraindications for Microneedling or reason why someone should not receive a Microneedling treatment?

Patients who have the following should not receive Microneedling:
– Have active skin cancer in the treatment area
– Have open wounds, sore, or irritated skin in the treatment area
– Have an allergy to stainless steel or anesthetic
– Have a hemorrhagic bleeding disorder or a hemostatic bleeding dysfunction.
– Are pregnant or nursing
– Are currently taking drugs with ingredients of isotretinoin such as Accutane.

What areas can not be Microneedled?

Microneedling should not be done around the orbital rim such as the eye lids.

How should I prepare for a Microneedling treatment?

Avoid excessive sun exposure. No sunburn.
Discontinue to use topical retinoids 24 hours prior to Microneedling.
Avoid treatment if you have active breakouts or open lesions.
Allow 24 hours after auto immune therapy.
Wait at least 6 months before oral isotretinoin use.

What to avoid after Microneedling?

You should avoid sweaty exercise and sun exposure 72 hours post your Microneedling treatment.
In addition, you should avoid other facial treatments for a month after Microneedling.

Which products should I use post Microneedling?

You should use Vitamin C as it is a great antioxidant and helps with rebuilding collagen. Vitamin A is also recommended to use after Microneedling as it promotes cell turnover, decreases collagen degradation, and helps to thicken the dermal layer. Also, copper with peptides as it plays a role in the production of collagen and elastin that the body is not able to produce by itself.
Other products that would benefit are Magnesium, as it is a great atioxidant, Zinc because it helps to reduce inflammation and promotes collagen production, and Ginger Extact because it prevents further damage to the skin caused by UV exposure.

Why are good skin care products so important to use after Microneedling?

They can help reduce inflammation, provide moisture, aid in wound healing, improve and maintain aesthetic procedure outcomes, and reduce the risk of potential complications.

Which products or ingredients should I avoid using after Microneedling?

Ingredients known to increase inflammation should be avoided as well as those that hinder the skin’s ability to repair and remodel.
These include:
– Formaldehyde releasing preservatives
– Silicone/Methicone/Dimethicone
– Dyes
– Fragrances
– Petroleum
– Glycol
– Sulphates
– Mineral Oil
– Parabens
– Citrus derived preservatives
It is best to follow the post treatment instructions and products recommended to you by your medical aesthetic provider.

What is the difference between a Dermaroller and a Microneedling pen?

A Dermaroller is an over the counter needling device and Microneedling pen is a medical aesthetic device only allowed to be used in medical aesthetic practices.

What is better Dermarolling or Microneedling?

Mechanical microneedling with an FDA cleared Microneedling device such as the SkinPen produces more microchannels with one pass than created by a Dermaroller with many passes.

How long does it take for the micro-channels created during Microneedling to close after treatment?

One study showed that microchannels created during Microneedling close after 24 hours.

How deep into the skin does Microneedling penetrate?

The SkinPen microneedling device is able to go up to 2.5 mm which is the highest depth of penetration that is proven safe for patients.

If you are looking for Microneedling near me and live in the Bucks County, PA area, call (267) 388-4692 or contact Healthy Solutions Medspa today for a free consultation.

  • Hydration of the skin

SKINVIVE by JUVÉDERM® is said to last about six months, providing the glowy and smooth skin.

The awesome part is that everyone is a candidate for this hyaluronic acid injectable, no matter the skin type you are.  Anyone that wants to improve the texture of their skin, or wanting a hydration boost, would be a great candidate.
