What is a Hydrafacial?
Hydrafacial is a clinically proven, patented skincare treatment which improves the appearance of all different skin types. Unlike traditional facials that may use manual extractions or abrasive exfoliants, Hydrafacial uses a unique, patented device to gently but effectively treat your skin at every step.
Hydrafacial boasts a clear competitive edge thanks to its cutting-edge Vortex-Fusion system, capable of producing noticeably smoother, brighter skin. Imagine simultaneous purification and nourishment – that's exactly what this technology offers, eradicating dead skin cells, oil, and debris while feeding your skin with a rich serum stream. With a deep cleanse that doesn't stop at surface level, your skin gets to drink in the hydration and nourishment it's thirsty for, minus the downsides like redness or days spent indoors. Clear the slate and start anew – and that's exactly what your skin gets when it's pampered with a little TLC, emerging smoother, plumper, and positively glowing.
What Hydrafacial does exceptionally well is offer personalized solutions that focus on your specific skin issues. Whether you're dealing with acne, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, or simply want to brighten dull skin, your treatment can be tailored with specific boosters and serums to address your unique skincare concerns.
Benefits of Hydrafacial
Now that we have a better understanding of what a Hydrafacial is, let’s dive into how it can help you bring out your confidence and most vibrant beautiful skin!
Deep Cleansing and Exfoliation
You can expect a gentle cleanse, removing impurities, excess oil, and dead skin cells that clog pores. Using its patented Vortex-Fusion technology, it effectively exfoliates the skin without the need for abrasive scrubbing. Breakouts don't stand a chance against this thorough cleansing process, which swoops in to rescue skin from imperfections, revealing a fresher, more radiant you.
Hydration and Nourishment
One of the key aspects that sets Hydrafacial apart is the infusion of hydrating serums packed with antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid. Ingredients packed with goodness permeate the skin, injecting hydration and bolstering its natural protective shield against the elements. Skin that's pampered to perfection looks and feels amazing, like a refreshing drink of water on a parched face.
Brightening and Smoothing
If your skin is looking dull or uneven, this procedure can help restore its natural glow. By balancing exfoliation with infusions of brightening serums to wake up your natural glow. Imagine skin that's smooth, even-toned, and lit from within - that's what you can expect from this effective treatment.
Non-Invasive and Quick
Unlike many other facials or treatments that require downtime, Hydrafacial is non-invasive and entirely painless. Imagine you could reboot your skin in just half an hour - that's exactly what you get with this rapid refresh treatment, perfect for a busy lifestyle. You can even get a Hydrafacial during a lunch break and return to your day with no redness or irritation.
Customizable for Skin Concerns
One of the most valuable aspects of Hydrafacial is its ability to address a wide range of skin concerns. If troubled skin is getting you down, here's the good news: this treatment adjusts to your needs with potent add-ins and serums to smooth out acne, dryness, and other common skin complaints. What makes our approach so effective is that we care for your skin on a highly personal level, crafting each session to meet its unique – wait, no, let's say specific demands.
What is a Silk Peel Treatment?
Silk Peel is an advanced, non-invasive skincare treatment designed to exfoliate, extract impurities, and infuse your skin with nourishing serums, all in one session. Unlike traditional facials, the SilkPeel® Dermalinfusion being used at Pure Dermatology uses a diamond-tipped handpiece to manually exfoliate the outer layer of the skin, removing dead skin cells and debris. This gentle mechanical exfoliation process improves skin texture and tone, revealing brighter, smoother skin instantly.
The unique aspect of a silk peel is its ability to simultaneously deliver customized, medical-grade serums tailored to your skin's specific needs. Whether you’re targeting acne, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, or dehydration, the infusion technology ensures that the serums penetrate deep into the skin where they can be most effective. This dual-action process leaves your skin not only exfoliated but also deeply hydrated and rejuvenated.
Silk Peel is safe for all skin types and is commonly used on sensitive areas like the eyes and lips, as well as the face, neck, and hands. With no downtime and immediate results, the SilkPeel® Dermalinfusion offers a solution for those seeking healthier, glowing skin without the discomfort of harsher treatments.
Benefits of SilkPeel® Dermalinfusion
Now that you understand what SilkPeel® Dermalinfusion is, let’s dive into the specific advantages this advanced treatment offers for achieving healthier, more radiant skin.
Precision Exfoliation
SilkPeel® Dermalinfusion features a diamond-tipped wand that exfoliates the skin with precision, removing dead skin cells to reveal a smoother, brighter complexion. This manual exfoliation is effective yet gentle, offering a deep clean that enhances skin clarity.
Serum Infusion for Customized Care
What sets SilkPeel® apart is its ability to infuse medical-grade serums during the exfoliation process. These serums are customized based on your skin’s unique needs, whether you’re seeking hydration, acne treatment, or reduction in pigmentation.
Radiant, Even-Toned Skin
This treatment is especially beneficial for addressing uneven skin tone, rough texture, and hyperpigmentation. By combining exfoliation and serum infusion, SilkPeel® enhances your skin’s luminosity, leaving you with a brighter, smoother complexion after just one session.
Immediate Results with No Downtime
SilkPeel® delivers instant, visible results. Your skin will feel fresh, plump, and hydrated immediately after treatment, with no peeling or redness. It’s the perfect pick-me-up for glowing skin, whether before an event or as part of your regular skincare routine.
Tailored Solutions for Specific Skin Concerns
Whether you’re dealing with acne, fine lines, or dry skin, SilkPeel® Dermalinfusion can be tailored to address your specific concerns. With its customizable serums and diamond-tip technology, the treatment ensures your skin receives the precise care it needs.
HydraFacial vs. SilkPeel® Dermalinfusion Treatment: Which is Best For You?
Both HydraFacial and SilkPeel® Dermalinfusion are advanced skincare treatments that offer impressive results, but choosing the right one depends on your specific skin goals.
HydraFacial
HydraFacial excels at providing a gentle, all-in-one treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates. It’s ideal for those looking for quick hydration and a radiant glow with minimal downtime. The Vortex-Fusion technology delivers instant nourishment, making it perfect for sensitive skin or those needing a rapid refresh.
SilkPeel® Dermalinfusion
SilkPeel® Dermalinfusion, on the other hand, focuses more on precision exfoliation with its diamond-tip wand, offering deeper resurfacing for a more targeted treatment. It's especially beneficial for those dealing with acne, hyperpigmentation, or skin texture issues, as it addresses these concerns while delivering customized serums directly into the skin. This makes SilkPeel® a great option for anyone looking for both exfoliation and long-lasting results.
Which to Choose?
While both treatments are excellent, SilkPeel® Dermalinfusion might be the better choice if you’re looking for a deeper exfoliation and more targeted solutions for skin conditions like acne or discoloration. If hydration and a quick glow are your priorities, HydraFacial could be a great fit. At Pure Dermatology, we specialize in SilkPeel® and can guide you in tailoring this treatment to your unique needs for long-term skin health and radiance.

- Gentle cleansers are a great place to start.
- Some of our favorites: EltaMD Foaming Cleanser, CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser, and Cetaphil DermaControl Oil Removing Foam Cleanser.
- For those dealing with acne, benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid cleansers can exfoliate the skin and prevent clogging of the pores.
Wear a daily moisturizer with sunscreen every morning.
- Teens get a lot of daily sun exposure at school and playing sports. It is important to start wearing daily sunscreen to protect their skin from sun damage.
- There are so many great products that are lightweight and do not feel like sunscreen.
- Some of our favorites: EltaMD UV Clear SPF 46, CeraVe Ultra Light Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30.
Moisturize daily.
- If you have oily or acne-prone skin, you might be inclined to skip moisturizer because you don't want to add more moisture and oil to your skin. However, moisturizing daily is one of the best things you can do for oily or acne-prone skin.
- Daily moisturizing helps prevent dryness and irritation, contributing to clearer skin.
- Some of our favorites: EltaMD Skin Recovery Light Moisturizer, CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizer.
Use non-comedogenic products.
- One of the best tips for teenage skin care is to use non-comedogenic products.
- Non-comedogenic skin care products are specifically formulated not to block pores and do not contribute to the pesky whiteheads or blackheads you're trying to prevent with your skincare routine.
Treat acne early on.
- Teenagers need to address acne proactively.
- Acne is common during puberty due to hormonal changes, however, it won't clear up on its own and can dramatically affect a teen's self-esteem and can also lead to permanent scarring.
- Consult with our team of dermatologists and aestheticians to determine which skin care products are right for your teen's acne.

Get Glowing Skin!
Are you feeling the effects of winter on your skin? Dryness, flakiness, and a lackluster appearance are common during this time of year. But don't worry, we are here to help! Here are some simple tips to combat dry winter weather and keep your skin glowing all season long.
Use gentle, non-fragranced soap or moisturizing non-soap cleansers.
- Harsh soaps can strip the natural oils from the skin, leading to dryness and irritation.
Apply the right products.
- Moisturizer is best applied right after your bath or shower, when the skin is moist, your pores are open and will trap in moisture.
- Choose a cream over lotion. Cream-based moisturizers contain more oil and less water than lotions; lotions are thinner (more water) and less hydrating than creams.
- Consider a skin product that contains Hyaluronic Acid. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is one of the hottest ingredients in skincare right now — and for good reason. It has the power to thoroughly hydrate, making skin look instantly dewy and plump, while decreasing the appearance of roughness, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Stay hydrated by drinking water throughout the day and use a humidifier.
- Water plumps skin cells and enhances elasticity, it is crucial for keeping skin looking youthful. Dehydrated skin can look dry, wrinkled, and dull.
- Proper water intake helps carry nutrients to skin cells and enhances the effects of topically applied products.
- The heat in your home or office can be very drying; a humidifier helps maintain ideal humidity to combat skin dryness.
Treat yourself to a relaxing facial to combat winter skin dryness.
- Deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate your skin.

NEW PRODUCT ALERT!
Alastin Skincare's new HA (Hyaluronic Acid) IMMERSE Serum™ is a breakthrough hyaluronic acid serum that delivers instant hydration for smoother, more radiant-looking skin — while helping amplify skin's hyaluronic acid levels over time. The luxurious serum is formulated only with high-molecular weight hyaluronic acid. This form of HA is the same molecular weight as the HA naturally found deep within your skin. That means it delivers the form of HA that your body needs, helping to promote plumper, more hydrated skin in a natural way.
Where Does Hyaluronic Acid Fit Into My Daily Regimen? Typically when you layer on products, you start with the thinnest formula and end with the thickest formula. In the case of HA IMMERSE, this also rings true! You can apply HA IMMERSE immediately after washing and drying your face, then continue on with the rest of your daily regimen.
BENEFITS OF HA IMMERSE SERUM™:
- Helps instantly boost skin hydration at the surface for smoother, more radiant looking skin.
- Proprietary Octapeptide-45 helps the skin’s ability to naturally increase its own high-molecular hyaluronic acid production deep within for long-term skin plumping, anti-aging, and hydration benefits.
- Provides both instant and long-lasting results.
- Helps to increase natural levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin which works to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
