Facial Treatment Comparison: Hydrafacial vs Glo2Facial
Introduction
Getting a facial is a relaxing way to pamper yourself. Whether you get a facial to brighten your skin or treat acne, that post-treatment feeling is unmatched. The Hydrafacial and Glo2Facial treatments are both powerhouse facials yielding incredible benefits. Both facials decrease the appearance of pores, brighten and hydrate the skin, and improve the skin's texture, but there are key differences to help you decide which is best for you.
Hydrafacial
A Hydrafacial reveals a new layer of skin through gentle exfoliation and non-invasive resurfacing with hydradermabrasion technology. Hydradermabrasion uses a vacuum to clean out pores instead of the traditional grit-style resurfacing.
How It Works
Process: Completed in three steps - cleanse, exfoliate and infuse
Technology: While the patented vacuum device is cleaning out the pores, it is simultaneously infusing the skin with powerful serums
Customization: Can be tailored with different strengths of glycolic acid peels and adjustable suction power for different facial areas
Ideal For
Deeper hydration and exfoliation
Resurfacing
Treating specific skin concerns with targeted boosters
Glo2Facial
Previously known as Geneo, the Glo2Facial is a non-invasive 3-in-1 facial that exfoliates, infuses and oxygenates the skin using patented technology.
How It Works
Process: Performed in three steps - cleanse, exfoliate and oxygenate
Technology: Creates CO2 bubbles that gently burst on the skin, sending oxygen-rich blood to the area
Treatment Time: Takes approximately 45 minutes
Ideal For
Plumping skin
Improving circulation
Enhancing collagen production over time
