Treating Acne and Bacne Hydrafacial
SUMMER IS THE TIME TO GET OUTDOORS AND ENJOY THE SUNSHINE, BUT WITH THAT COMES WEARING LESS CLOTHES AND EXPOSING YOUR BACK.
While life has so many challenges for both sexes, acne is a common and unwanted problem, being painful and unsightly. Bacne is often neglected as it is hidden under clothes. It has a huge effect on self-esteem, particularly through our teenage years, but many continue to get blackheads, breakouts and acne well into their twenties and beyond.
An acne breakout across your back and shoulders, may occur more frequently than you’d like it to, but it is very common. Back acne or ‘bacne’ how it is often referred to is an increasing concern among men and women at a time in their lives when having fun means hanging out with friends at the park or the beach, with ultimately more skin exposure.
WHAT ARE THE CONTRIBUTING FACTORS THE LEAD TO BACK ACNE?
There are many contributing factors that lead to breakouts or bacne. Everything from genetics to daily hygiene practices can play a significant part in the health of our skin. It is important to address the correct contributing factor since prescribed medicines may be required.
HERE IS A LIST OF POTENTIAL CAUSES:
Staying in sweaty clothes can irritate the skin
Hormones – An increase in testosterone levels
Incorrect cleansing and exfoliation – Can cause blocked pores and acne breakouts
Dirty linen
Genetics
The good news is that specialist skincare products and treatments can also work to help treat your acne concerns across any part of the body, face and back being the most common.
WHAT IS HYDRAFACIAL FOR BACK ACNE TREATMENT?
A ‘Back Facial’ is carried out at specialist practitioners is much the same as when treating the face. With a larger tip to cover a greater area, more efficiently, the HydraFacial treatment deeply cleanses the back and shoulders, exfoliates and loosens the bonds between dead skin cells and extracts all the nasties that clog your pores and cause breakouts.
Hydrafacial is a great treatment for clients who suffer with bacne as it extracts using tailored ingredients with lymphatic drainage with a high dose of vitamins, peptides and extraction to sterilise, heal and hydrate the skin. Using a combination of vacuum technology, water pressure and serums in order to gently and effectively remove impurities from the skin, extracting dead skin cells, dirt, and oil from clogged pores. Deeply cleansing the pores without damaging the skin. HydraFacial is paired with a red & blue light to soothe the area and calm inflammation along with blue light to kill remaining bacteria off the face or body.
HOW DOES HYDRAFACIAL COMPARE TO OTHER CLINICAL FACIALS TO TREAT ACNE?
The HydraFacial is set apart from other clinical facials in that you receive extremely effective cleansing, exfoliation, and hydration of your skin while being one the most gentle of the treatments.
IS THERE ANY REDNESS OR SWELLING AFTER HYDRAFACIAL?
There is no downtime and you will not have any redness or swelling after the procedure. You will be able to continue with your daily activities without any interruption! HydraFacial is relaxing, comfortable and non-invasive. Indeed, it is often compared to a light massage, which is perfect when treating the back! There is little downtime, and many patients continue with their daily activities after a treatment.
WHAT RESULTS CAN I EXPECT FROM HYDRAFACIAL TREATMENT FOR ACNE?
The treatment offered to the client depends upon the severity of the acne. If you have chronic acne, you will most likely have dimpled, pitted scars that remain even after breakouts have cleared up. Scarring is a constant visual reminder of your acne condition. We will discuss an acne treatment plan that may involve skin resurfacing alongside a course of HydraFacials. We offer boosts to the standard treatment that can target acne in particular.
This is a gradual process and consistency is key to achieving the required results. You will most likely need to have monthly HydraFacials for at least four to six months. The treatment lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, making it easy for our patients to incorporate the HydraFacial into their lunch hours.
The results of aesthetic treatments are mainly dependent on the skills and experience of the practitioner. At Springwell Clinic, all our practitioners are highly skilled and trained by HydraFacial as to all the latest techniques and treatment ranges available. We will offer you an initial consultation to determine which acne treatment plan is best for you.
