The Saltfacial® and Hydrafacial® are popular facial treatments designed to improve the overall appearance and health of the skin. Both are effective at treating a variety of skin conditions. However, they differ in their approach.
The Saltfacial is a three-step facial treatment that uses natural sea salt to exfoliate, hydrate and rejuvenate the skin. The first step involves the use of a machine that sprays a stream of salt crystals onto the skin to remove dead skin cells and impurities. The second step involves the use of ultrasound technology to infuse the skin with nutrients, antioxidants or therapeutic serums for a specific skin concern, while the third step involves the application of LED light therapy to enhance the rejuvenating effects of the treatment further. The Saltfacial helps with a range of skin concerns, including acne, fine lines, enlarged pores, wrinkles, dull skin, and uneven skin tone.
The Hydrafacial, on the other hand, is a multi-step facial treatment that uses a patented Vortex-Fusion® technology to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate the skin. The treatment involves three steps: cleansing and exfoliation, extractions, and hydration. The machine used in the treatment delivers a combination of serums, antioxidants, and peptides to the skin. The Hydrafacial can also be customized with additional steps, such as LED light therapy, to address specific skin concerns. Like the SaltFacial, the Hydrafacial also helps with a range of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, and hyperpigmentation.
Ultimately, we decided that the SaltFacial was the right treatment to offer at Nava for the following reasons:
- True medical facial device: SaltFacial is only offered in medical practices. It is not available in day spas or salons. A medical professional supervises the treatments, and you get medical-grade results, unlike spa treatments that only give a temporary glow.
- All-natural: SaltFacial uses all-natural sea salt as its primary exfoliant, which is less likely to cause irritation or allergic reactions compared to chemical-based exfoliants.
- Customizable: Each of the steps in the Saltfacial treatment can be customized to meet individual skin concerns and needs.
- Reduced inflammation: Saltfacial can reduce inflammation and redness in the skin, making it a suitable treatment option for individuals with sensitive or reactive skin.
- No suction: The sea salt exfoliation is performed with positive pressure, and no suction is employed. This avoids redness, irritation or potential for hyperpigmentation after the treatment.
- Safe for all skin tones.
