Hydradermabrasion is a relatively new term in skin care.  Spa facials have been around for many years, then came microdermabrasion, now the next step up is hydradermabrasion.  Hydradermabrasion works very much like microdermabrasion because it uses a rough tip to break up the skin’s surface, and a vacuum sucks away the debris.  Unlike microdermabrasion, hydradermabrasion is wet – while the tip is breaking up the skin, and the vacuum is sucking away the debris, a skin care solution is applied to the skin.

To prepare for a hydradermabrasion treatment, discontinue Retin-A products for 5 days prior to treatment.  Do not tan before a hydradermabrasion treatment.  Inform your Esthetician if you have ever been on Acutane.
