Facials
What is a hydrafacial?
As we age, our skin loses collagen and elastin, which can lead to lines and wrinkles and an overall dull look to the skin. The HydraFacial is a nonsurgical, painless, in-office treatment that uses patented technology to cleanse, extract, and hydrate your skin for a youthful glow. Treatment usually takes about 60-minutes to complete. Antioxidants and peptides are applied to the skin to maximize youthful results.
What is the hydrafacial treatment like?
During the treatment, a special HydraFacial wand will be swept across your face, simultaneously blasting clean water and vacuuming up old skin cells and debris. The sensation generally feels like a cool blast of air.
How do I know if a hydrafacial is right for me?
Almost anyone of any age who wishes to improve the appearance of their skin is a good candidate for the HydraFacial treatment. The HydraFacial treatment can address a number of skincare needs, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Uneven skin texture
- Elasticity and firmness
- Tone and vibrancy
- Brown spots
- Oily and congested skin
- Large pores
What can I expect after a hydrafacial?
Following your HydraFacial treatment, there is no downtime required, so you can get back to your everyday activities right away. You will be able to see results immediately, and with ongoing treatments, you will notice intensely improved hydration, reduced fine lines and wrinkles, and minimized dark spots.
Injectables: Botox
What is Botox?
Botox is among one of the most popular and effective treatments used to treat facial lines and wrinkles. Common areas of treatment include the crow’s feet, forehead lines and frown lines (between the eyebrows). Botox is injected under the skin by an experienced physician to help soften facial wrinkles and create a natural, more youthful appearance. This procedure takes an average of 15 minutes to complete and results last for 3-6 months! Full effects of the treatment are seen 2 weeks after injection (or sooner!). Botox is naturally derived and approved by the FDA to treat mild to moderate facial wrinkles. Schedule your complimentary 15-minute consult to determine if you are a candidate for Botox.
What is the effect of an injectable on my skin?
All of our injectables make you look natural. We believe in enhancing the body, not changing the body.
Does it hurt?
Topical numbing is applied to injections so there is little to no pain.
Microneedling
Is microneedling right for me?
Microneedling is effective for all skin types, so anyone with wrinkles, acne scars, and rough skin can benefit from treatment. SkinPen microneedling should not be used for patients who have open wounds, sores, irritated skin, or skin cancers in the treated areas. It is also not appropriate for pregnant or nursing women.
What can I expect after microneedling treatment?
There is minimal downtime with microneedling, so you can return to your daily routine right away. However, you may have a sunburn-like feeling on your skin for a few days after each treatment. Your provider will recommend appropriate skincare products—including a gentle cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen—to care for your skin following microneedling. The skin may feel dry and flaky for up to one week after treatment. This is a sign of increased cell turnover, and you should avoid scrubbing, peeling, or picking at affected areas.
Is microneedling safe?
Microneedling is a safe, FDA-cleared treatment that is gentle on the skin. Each microneedling treatment implements a single-use cartridge with the SkinPen device, ensuring no cross contamination between procedures.
How can I improve my results with microneedling?
Microneedling can provide amazing results on its own, but pairing your treatment with radiofrequency or PRP therapy can boost your results. Following a thorough skincare routine at home will also help you maintain softer, smoother skin. In addition, you may schedule regular facials or follow-up microneedling treatments to continue pampering and rejuvenating the skin.
How long will it take to see results?
Most patients will need between 3 and 6 treatments for full results from microneedling, but you may see an improvement in the skin tone and texture after a single treatment session. Results will be visible for up to six months after your last treatment.
What is the SkinPen by Crown Aesthetics?
At Vitality Wellness Clinic, we use the SkinPen by Crown Aesthetics for microneedling treatments. This device is FDA-cleared and clinically proven to improve the appearance of wrinkles and acne scars in patients 22 and older. SkinPen microneedling works by penetrating the skin with very tiny needles to create microchannels that trigger the wound healing process. This, in turn, kickstarts collagen production for effective remodeling of the skin with no visible damage on the surface. For even more dramatic results, microneedling can be paired with radiofrequency skin rejuvenation or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy.
Spa Amenities & Enhancements
What is an infrared sauna?
An infrared sauna is a type of sauna that used infrared light to create heat. At the Vitality Spa, you step into a small wooden cabin with infrared light panels, and simply sit and enjoy the experience for up to 30 minutes, allowing the body to detox through perspiration.
What are the health benefits?
Studies show that Infrared Saunas have a variety of benefits including stimulation of the lymphatic system, the cardiovascular system, and the immune system. Regular sessions help remove toxins, relieve muscle pain, reduce the appearance of cellulite, help clear deeply imbedded impurities and dead skin cells, and more.
Are there any risks?
Studies show that the only risks are dehydration or heat exhaustion which can be easily avoided by drinking enough water prior to and after your session. If you are pregnant, nursing, over the age of 65, or under the age of 18, it’s important to consult a physician to ensure a session is safe for you. That’s why we have physicians on staff who will help you make that determination. It is also advised that you do a Hydration Infusion (IV therapy) after your sauna session to ensure proper rehydration.
