5 Reasons to Consider a Facial

Most of us would probably say that we want to have flawless skin that’s smooth, clear, and hydrated. But to achieve that youthful glow, you have to purchase a seemingly unending list of serums, oils, and moisturizers. Plus, you have to be consistent about applying the right ones for your skin type both in the morning and at night. 

But what if you could get that celebrity skin look with little effort on your part? You can, with a custom HydraFacial® treatment. HydraFacial is an innovative and all-inclusive facial experience that can take your skin care regimen to the next level. 

Unlike a typical facial, the HydraFacial works by first exfoliating and removing the outer layer of dead skin cells before applying a moisturizer and infusing serums specific to your aesthetic goals.

At Butterfly MedSpa and Wellness in The Woodlands and Spring areas of Houston, Texas, Ben W. Cilento, MD, MHA, leads our team in providing HydraFacials to rejuvenate your skin and help you feel your very best. Here, we highlight five reasons you should consider having one.

1. You have blackheads, acne, or acne scars

Blackheads and acne respond well to microdermabrasion — a deep exfoliation technique that sands off the entire outer layer of skin. Since blackheads and acne are caused by excess oil production and clogged pores, deep exfoliation is necessary to thoroughly clean out your pores. Microdermabrasion is the first step in the HydraFacial process, making it a great choice to clean out acne and blackhead-prone skin.

After your skin is cleansed and exfoliated, brightening and smoothing serums are infused to minimize the appearance of any scarring you may have left over from previous breakouts.

2. You have rosacea

Having the skin sensitivity that comes with rosacea can make it difficult to find a cosmetic treatment that works for your skin type. However, a HydraFacial could be just what you need. The microdermabrasion portion can remove bumpy, dry, scaly, and uneven sections of skin and then soothe it with hydrating serums. 

3. You have skin aging concerns

Wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin are common — and often unwanted — signs of aging skin. Getting a HydraFacial can provide much-needed hydration and nourishment to older skin that’s a little more fragile. HydraFacial treatments also stimulate collagen production, meaning over time you should notice your wrinkles and fine lines start to fade and your skin gets firmer. 

4. You have very dry skin

If your skin tends to be very dry, it can be frustrating to deal with flaky patches of dull skin even after using a wide range of moisturizing and hydrating skincare products. Let a HydraFacial treatment bring your skin back to life as it removes all your old, dry skin layers and rejuvenates the beautiful new skin underneath. 

5. You have uneven skin tone or texture

Do you have areas of skin that are bumpy, red, or hyperpigmented? Getting a HydraFacial can give you a skin “restart” by clearing out all the dead, bumpy, and scaly skin and debris from your pores and epidermal surface. By removing that top layer of skin, all the serums have the best chance of sinking deep and saturating your skin.
