HydraFacial®

IN LONG BEACH, CA AND SERVING LA, ORANGE COUNTY AND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

Our team at The Waltzman Institute Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics is continually seeking new technologies to help our patients accomplish their cosmetic goals. This search is not restricted to plastic surgery. With the advancements in skin care, we are continuously studying the latest non-surgical treatments. 

With the pioneering HydraFacial® skin care system, we have found the ultimate solution for women and men looking to improve their appearance and skin health.

A skin care regimen must include specific steps to be successful. Unfortunately, these measures too often require different procedures. Whether at home or in a spa, maintaining this routine can be time-consuming and expensive. Not so with our HydraFacial®. This innovative, multi-step treatment system delivers skin care mainstays: cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and protection. The treatment is painless, the results are immediate, and there is no downtime.

Your Consultation for a HydraFacial®

Dr. Waltzman and his team often recommend a HydraFacial® for individuals who attend their consultation seeking smoother, brighter-looking skin. During your consultation, you will learn about the benefits and risks of HydraFacial® and have an examination of your skin to determine whether this treatment is the best way to achieve your desired results.

How Does a HydraFacial® Work?

Here is our five-step process explained:

  • To begin, we use a sequence of HydroPeels to clean and exfoliate your skin. This step eliminates dead skin cells from the surface and reveals a healthy layer of new skin.
  • Next, we apply an acid peel, which helps loosen debris like makeup and grime from the pores. The peel is mild yet effective and will not irritate your skin.
  • We use a vortex suction apparatus to clean the skin’s pores painlessly.
  • We apply a custom blend of antioxidants and hyaluronic acid to nourish skin tissue and restore its health.
  • Finally, we employ skin care nutrients to help protect and maintain the outcome.

After your HydraFacial®, your skin will benefit from an abundance of antioxidant and hyaluronic acid-packed serums that oppose free radicals and moisturize. You will go home with a daily regimen of selected products to keep your face looking young and fresh.

We perform the HydraFacial® treatment at our office in Long Beach in 20 to 30 minutes, on average. It fits into the busiest schedules and allows you to return to your daily routine immediately. Treatment time varies from patient to patient and depends on skin type, current skincare, and lifestyle.

The procedure is painless, with many patients comparing it to a cool brush flowing gently across the treatment site. You may find it so refreshing that you look forward to your next session as a boost of energy. 

For one week before treatment, only apply mild skincare to your target area—no retinol or active products.

Am I a Candidate for a HydraFacial®?

Men and women in the South Bay who want to enhance their appearance and skin health are ideal candidates for a HydraFacial®. They may be seeking help with:

  • Skin firmness and elasticity
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Enlarged pores
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Sun damage
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Oily skin
  • Clogged pores

The most notable advantage of our HydraFacial® is its suitability for all skin types. We can tailor the procedure with an exclusive blend of serums to custom-fit your particular needs. We will formulate a treatment plan through a personal consultation and evaluation process.

What Does a HydraFacial® Treat?

People develop fine lines, wrinkles, damaged skin, and enlarged pores with time. Factors influencing these flaws include genetics, aging, lifestyle choices, and the environment. These issues harm your skin’s tone and texture, adding years to your appearance. 

The HydraFacial® in Long Beach combines the benefits of a chemical peel, dermabrasion, and automated extractions while delivering an infusion of peptides, antioxidants, and hyaluronic acid deep into your skin tissue.

These critical steps will remove dead skin cells, extract impurities, and invigorate new skin with a cleansing, moisturizing, and hydrating serum. By doing this simultaneously, the skin will enjoy an immediate restoration of health and youthful appearance. The patient will feel a refreshing and soothing sensation during and after the treatment.

What are the Benefits of a HydraFacial®?

The multiple benefits of HydraFacial® include consistency, instant results, customizability, and its ability to complement other procedures.

Because a HydraFacial® depends more on technology than technique, expect consistent results when scheduling your treatment. Our Vortex-Fusion system is state-of-the-art, comfortable, and quick, and it delivers reliable results after every session.

The HydraFacial® offers an immediate payoff with improved tone, texture, and acne conditions without peeling or irritation. Also apparent after each treatment is the glowing complexion you will enjoy.

The HydraFacial® effectively extracts unwanted blemishes without pain or redness. It combines elements of a chemical peel and microdermabrasion but is a relaxing and excellent feel-good treatment. Much like a light facial massage, it’s never painful. Its suction element unclogs and cleanses pores without squeezing or pressing.

If you’re a fan of Botox® or dermal fillers, HydraFacial® can be a great complement to additional cosmetic treatments. We often administer these at the same appointment.

We can tailor the treatment to meet your unique facial skin or condition. This benefit will allow us to focus on your priorities like skin brightening, pore cleansing, or exfoliation. We may even suggest laser treatment to increase collagen production and calm down your skin.

What Results Can I Expect from a HydraFacial®?

The non-invasive HydraFacial® requires no downtime, allowing patients to resume their regular routine directly after treatment. Your skin will look healthier and refreshed after only one session. Multiple HydraFacials will improve results and bring a more radiant glow to your skin’s complexion.

What is Recovery Like After a HydraFacial®?

HydraFacial® is an extremely tolerable procedure. It offers no downtime, and patients can apply makeup right after treatment if desired. The lack of downtime contributes to its popularity and makes it easily accessible for even the busiest individuals.
