Q&A                                                          HydraFacials

  • Q: What are the steps of a HydraFacial?
    A: A HydraFacial typically has six steps: detoxification, deep cleansing and exfoliation, chemical peel, extraction, hydration, and rejuvenation. This facial rejuvenation treatment can help improve skin texture and provide wrinkle reduction, similar to the effects of other med spa services like BOTOX and chemical peels offered at Face Forward Aesthetics, a top-rated med spa in Lexington, MA.

    Q: What are the benefits of a HydraFacial?
    A: HydraFacials can leave skin feeling clean, smooth, and refreshed, and can also unclog pores, remove dead skin, and brighten skin tone. Some say that results are highly visible and long-lasting, and that you can see an immediate difference after your treatment at Face Forward Medical Spa. It’s a great option for skin tightening, skin texture improvement, and anti-aging treatment, and can help improve overall skin texture, similar to the effects of dermal fillers for treating marionette lines.

    Q: How often should you get a HydraFacial?
    A: For best results, some recommend getting a HydraFacial once a month at Lexington Aesthetics to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, acne, and oily skin. It may take about eight treatments to achieve satisfactory results, but results vary depending on skin and hair type, age, and other factors. Regular HydraFacials can help with skin laxity and overall facial rejuvenation, providing a non-surgical facelift effect.

MicroNeedling

Here are some common questions and answers about Microneedling:   
                                                                                     
  • Q: What can Microneedling improve?
    A: Microneedling can improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of wrinkles like crow’s feet and nasolabial folds, and stimulate tissue regeneration. It can also help with acne scar treatment, stretch marks, and pore size. Microneedling eyelids before and after photos show that it is a minimally invasive skin resurfacing treatment that can provide benefits similar to more invasive procedures like plasma pen treatments. The Subnovii Plasma Pen is another popular non-invasive treatment option.

    Q: Is microneedling safe for all skin types?
    A: Yes, microneedling can be performed on all skin types, including ethnic skin, and on all areas of the face, body, and scalp. It’s a versatile treatment option for facial aesthetics. When comparing microneedling vs plasma pen, microneedling may be a better choice for some skin types. The Subnovii Plasma Pen is a popular plasma pen by Louise Walsh.

    Q: What are some risks of microneedling?
    A: Skin damage is a common risk, which can include bleeding, bruising, redness, tightness, itching, and peeling. These side effects usually go away on their own after a few days or weeks, which is a shorter plasma pen downtime compared to more invasive procedures like an eyelid lift. The risks of microneedling are minimal compared to the Plasma MD device.

    Q: How can I maximize my results?
    A: To maximize your results, you can try these tips for recovery:

    1. Keep your skin clean and hydrated
    2. Avoid direct sunlight and wear sunscreen for 2-3 weeks after your treatment
    3. Wait 24 hours to apply makeup
    4. Avoid strenuous exercise and heat exposure like: hot shower, hot tub and steaming
    5. Follow your provider’s instructions

    Proper aftercare can help stimulate collagen production for optimal skin rejuvenation. Plasma pen before and after photos show impressive results for plasma pen jowls and plasma pen for neck treatments. If you’re wondering what is plasma pen treatment or looking for the best plasma pen device, consider the Subnovii Plasma Pen. Jet Plasma Pen reviews and Face Forward Aesthetics reviews rave about the results of this innovative fibroblast therapy

Q&A

Plasma Pen

  • Q: Do I need a consultation?                                                       
  • A: Yes, we will assess your suitability as well as discuss your skin concerns, needs and expectations. We will also evaluate if patch test is required.  Darker skin tones are of higher risk and if you are a Fitzpatrick 4, 5 or 6 this treatment will not be a good fit for your skin type. People who have trouble with skin healing, have uncontrolled diabetes, stroke history or are currently going through radiation or chemotherapy are not candidates. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not get a treatment.
  • Q: What is a Fibroblast Plasma treatment?                               
  • A: In nature there are four states of matter – solids, liquids, gases and plasma. Matter only becomes plasma when enough energy is delivered to split the atoms into electrons and the output of this is a ‘plasma cloud’ of charged particles which consist of free radicals, positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons and molecules. The plasma we create with our device transfers to the skin with absolute precision and does not harm any of the surrounding tissue. When the plasma hits the skin where we create external micro-trauma which helps immediately contract and tighten the skin. The plasma penetrates down into the fibroblasts  deep within the dermis and stimulates accelerated fibroblast division, as well as encouraging neovascularisation – the natural formation of new blood vessels and the release of growth factors. These growth factors include fibroblast growth factors, platelet-derived endothelial growth factors and cytokines. Starting the necrogenisus process in the skin and leading to new cell reproduction.
  • Q: How long will t take to see the full effect/results from my treatment?                
  •  A: You should notice results immediately after your appointment. As cell turnover occurs and the production of collagen increases, you’ll notice further changes to your skin. You should expect to see the full results of your treatment after around three months.Fibroblast procedure results typically last for 1-2.5 years.
