Why You Should Get a HydraFacial Back Treatment

Written by The Hampton Clinic | Oct 18, 2021 4:48:09 PM

It’s likely that you have experienced a breakout across your back and shoulders at least once. Back acne or ‘bacne’ is a common concern amongst both men and women.

This is because your back goes through a lot on a daily basis such as sweat, contact with different fabrics, and glands that accumulate serum due to lack of skin care. This sebum build-up can clog hair follicles and pores leading to blackheads, whiteheads and cystic acne.

There are many contributing factors that lead to bacne and its severity can vary from a few spots here and there to larger breakouts and redness. If left untreated, it’s not uncommon to have dark spots and scars after the acne heals.

Our Signature HydraFacial Back Treatment is the best way to deeply clean, decongest, hydrate and protect the neglected skin on your back. By removing dead skin cells that are dulling your complexion and infusing your skin with essential vitamins, minerals and powerful antioxidants, we can clear the pores, refine your skin texture and repair damage.

 

What To Expect

The process is much the same as when we treat the face. With a larger tip to cover a greater area more efficiently, we will deeply cleanse the back and shoulders, exfoliating and loosening the bonds between dead skin cells to completely remove all the build-up that clog your pores and cause breakouts. After the extraction phase, we then infuse the skin with powerful serums that treat, hydrate and protect.

The treatment utilises three methods that contribute to the resurfacing of the skin: physical exfoliation from water pressure and a textured tip, chemical exfoliation from acids such as glycolic and salicylic, and suction to lift dead skin cells off the surface. HydraFacial combines multiple stages to detoxify the skin, remove dead skin cells, extract debris and provide lasting hydration. Although you can expect to see a difference with one treatment, a course of treatments is advisable for longer-lasting and dramatic improvements in acne, enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, texture and dryness.
