Microdermabrasion & Hydro

Microdermabrasion
& Hydro Facial

Deep exfoliation meets deep hydration.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a safe, non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment designed to gently exfoliate the outer layer of dead skin cells. At Radiance Skin & Aesthetic Lounge, we use the professional SkinBase® system, a clinically proven device that provides precise and controlled exfoliation for optimal results. This treatment stimulates natural cell renewal, revealing fresher, smoother, and healthier-looking skin.

How it Works?

The SkinBase® microdermabrasion system uses fine crystals and suction to remove dead skin cells and impurities from the surface of the skin. This process not only improves the texture and tone of your skin but also encourages the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining firmness and elasticity.

Benefits include:

  • Smoother, more even skin: Helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, rough patches, and mild acne scars.
  • Enhanced product absorption: Your skincare products penetrate more effectively after treatment, delivering better results.
  • Long-term skin rejuvenation: Regular sessions stimulate collagen production, improve elasticity, and reduce surface imperfections.
  • Safe and gentle: Non-invasive with no downtime, suitable for most skin types.
  • Brightening effect: Removes dull, dead skin cells to reveal a fresh and radiant complexion.

Hydro Facial

The Hydro Facial is a gentle, hydrating treatment designed to cleanse, exfoliate, and nourish the skin in one seamless procedure. At Radiance Skin & Aesthetic Lounge, we use the professional SkinBase® Hydro system, which combines water-based exfoliation with customised serum infusion to leave your skin refreshed, balanced, and glowing.

How Hydro Facial Works?

The treatment begins with a deep cleanse to remove impurities from the skin’s surface. A mild AHA/BHA solution is then used to exfoliate without irritation, loosening dead skin cells and decongesting pores. Finally, a personalised serum, chosen based on your skin needs, is infused into the skin to restore hydration, support barrier health, and enhance radiance.

Who Can Benefit?

The Hydro Facial is ideal for anyone looking to boost hydration, improve dull or tired-looking skin, refine pores, or maintain overall skin health. It's especially beneficial during seasonal changes or anytime your skin needs a gentle reset.

Benefits of SkinBase® Hydro Facial

  • Gentle yet effective exfoliation: Smooths and brightens without the intensity of more abrasive treatments.
  • Deep hydration and nourishment: Serum infusion replenishes moisture and delivers active ingredients directly into the skin.
  • Improved clarity and radiance: Helps reduce dullness, dryness, and uneven tone, leaving the complexion refreshed.
  • Suitable for all skin types: Including sensitive or reactive skin that may not tolerate harsher exfoliation.
  • Minimal downtime: Skin feels clean, calm, and revitalised immediately after treatment.

WHY WE COMBINE MICRODERMABRASION & HYDRO?

Using Microdermabrasion and Hydro together (or in alternation) can give your skin the best of both worlds:

- Microdermabrasion clears away dead skin and smooths texture, setting the stage for Hydro.
- Hydro then deeply hydrates, nourishes, and revitalises skin cells, boosting glow and suppleness.
- This combination is ideal if you want both a tighter, smoother texture and a healthy, hydrated glow.
- You get long-term benefits: improved elasticity, smoother tone, reduced fine lines.While skin stays hydrated and radiant.

For many clients, a tailored treatment plan with spaced sessions of both can produce noticeable, lasting results without the harshness or downtime of stronger chemical or laser treatments.

MICRODERMABRASION & HYDRO FACIAL FAQ

Are Microdermabrasion Results Permanent?

Microdermabrasion results are no permanent, as processes within the skin are always changing. It is advisable to maintain an appropriate home care routine and healthy habits to maintain healthy skin. Having maintenance treatments once your course is complete will also give your skin an added boost and keep your glow going.

Can Microdermabrasion Cause Damage?

SkinBase Microdermabrasion does not cause damage. This award-winning treatment is super effective and rejuvenates skin after only one session. If you invest in a course you will see long-lasting results. Removing dead skin cells to reveal the younger skin underneath is not harmful. It is a gentle and effective way to achieve a smooth and radiant complexion.

When Will I See Microdermabrasion Results?

If you’re asking yourself “when will I see Microdermabrasion results”, and hoping it will be quickly, you’re in luck.
Microdermabrasion is incredibly effective. You can see and feel results as soon as the first treatment. The crystals remove any build up of dead cells on the skin, so the area treated is smooth and healthier.

How to Maintain Microdermabrasion Results?

A monthly boosting treatment combined with a basic cleanse, tone, moisturise and SPF routine is all you need to make your results last. SkinBase skincare products were specially formulated to work alongside a course of MD. The products are gentle, nourishing and protective for your skin. As microdermabrasion removes the top layer of the skin, it is likely to be a little sensitive post-treatment, so gentle products are essential.

Cleanse morning and night, and follow up with a hydrating toner to rid the skin of any daily grime and keep it fresh and balanced.

Keep your skin protected and hydrated with layers of moisturiser and SPF every day. Excess sun exposure is the quickest way to ruin your microdermabrasion results and take you back to step one with your skin.

How Often Do I Need a Hydro Treatment?

The exact number of Hydro treatments you will require, and how frequently the treatments should be depends on your skin concerns and goals. Book a consultation with us to learn more.

Microdermabrasion vs Hydro: Which is Best?

While Microdermabrasion provides an intense resurfacing, perfect for a deeper exfoliation, Hydro focuses on overall skin health, with a powerful infusion of actives and botanicals.

Neither treatment is better or worse, and both provide a range of benefits for the skin. The treatment you choose will depend on your specific needs, and the skin goals you are trying to achieve. Remember, achieving healthy skin is a long term process.

If you are finding it difficult to choose between the fabulous treatments, our therapist could incorporate both into your treatment plan. Alternating the treatments can provide a more comprehensive approach to your skincare, maximising your results in the long term.
