Hydrafacial in Santa Monica for acne

Teenage cystic acne can happen on any part of the face and body but typically erupts in areas of the face and neck and less commonly on the back and shoulders.

Topical application of retinoids and daily cleansing are essential in the management of facial and body acne. In-office treatments include chemical peels once or twice monthly plus daily exfoliation at home.

Patients may benefit from a thorough exfoliation and enzyme skin cleansing using the hydrafacial system that involves dermolipo infusion of enzymes to break down poor-clogging oil and sebum from the skin. The hydrafacial system is a radical approach to a severe problem of pore congestion and inflammation.

Our Santa Monica cosmetic dermatology center offers hydrafacials treatments for the face and body which involve three basic steps. Vortex extraction of pores and congested oil glands occurs with a combination of enzymes to detoxify inflamed oil glands and pores within the skin. The second step involves alpha and beta hydroxy acids to exfoliate the skin and reduce abnormal keratinization that may lead to clogged pores and acne breakouts. Our office also employs specialized serums to rejuvenate the skin and reduce inflammation within oil rich sebaceous glands. The final step of a hydrafacials involves the application of red and blue LED lights to stimulate collagen production and reduce bacterial contamination within the skin.
