About The HydraFacial

What is The HydraFacial?

The HydraFacial® is a breakthrough in aesthetic technology that removes dead skin cells and impurities while simultaneously bathing newly revealed skin with hydrating, moisturizing serums. The ability to so effectively hydrate the skin is what separates The HydraFacial from all other skin resurfacing procedures.

The HydraFacial treatment is most commonly performed to achieve the following results:

  • Cleanse and exfoliate
  • Intensely hydrate the skin
  • Correct discoloration, sun damage and wrinkles
  • Extract impurities

Step 1 Consultation

A thorough consultation is an important first step when deciding if The HydraFacial is the right option for you. We thoroughly discuss your desired results and provide an honest, professional opinion on how best to achieve those results. We also make certain that you are a good candidate for the treatment, taking into account your skin type, age, health, medical background and other factors that could affect the safety and effectiveness of your treatment. All of our consultations are conducted with the goal of making sure that our patients feel comfortable, confident and informed about The HydraFacial.

Step 2 Preparation

The day of your treatment, please remove all makeup and lotion before you arrive.

Step 3 Treatment

Before your treatment, we will answer any questions that may have come up since your consultation. Every effort is made to make certain that all of your concerns are addressed and you are as comfortable as possible.

The HydraFacial is fast and efficient, taking as little as 30 to 40 minutes. Many describe the treatment as soothing, like a cool paintbrush moving slowly across the face. The treatment is performed at a level adjusted for your comfort. A hydrating mask is applied with steam and the treatment is finished with a blend of antioxidants and moisturizers.

Step 4 Recovery

You can put on makeup and return to your normal activities right after treatment.

Step 5 Results

Results do vary, but most people report seeing a refined, radiant and more even skin tone after the first treatment. Results can last five to seven days and sometimes even longer. A series of six treatments, one treatment a week, is recommended for improving the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation and oily or acne prone skin. After your first series of treatments, you may want to maintain your results with a treatment once every two to four weeks. During your consultation, we will thoroughly explain what results to expect. We also can customize a skin care product regimen that will help to enhance and sustain your results.

I was highly recommended Detroit Plastic Surgery by a very good friend of mine to boost my confidence after having my baby. I made an appointment with Chris + form the moment I stepped inside the office, I felt extremely comfortable. She was SO friendly, knowledgeable, and honest while working with me on what I said bothered me. Chris was conservative in her approach with my face, and I can not be happier or recommend her enough! I am SO happy with the results, and will certainly be maintaining and visiting again very soon.

I couldn't be more happier with the entire process. Dr. Hajjar and his staff were extremely competent, professional, and caring throughout the procedure, and the follow up. His skills at suturing are top-notch, and after a couple of weeks I couldn't even see the incision. So thankful that my family doctor referred me to him.

I absolutely love Dr. Lumley!! He is an excellent plastic surgeon and his staff is awesome. I cannot say enough good things about him and the awesome revision job he did on my breast reconstruction surgery. I have recommended him to all of my fellow breast cancer cancer survivors as well as friends, family and coworkers that are looking to have elective surgery. You will not be disappointed.

Dr. Hajjar is highly respected, intelligent and undeniably talented. He worked around an existing condition that could have been a disaster for someone less qualified. He appears to be all business, but does have a good sense of humor and a kind heart. I am thrilled with his office, the procedure and the results 100 percent. Equally as impressive, one of his Fellows, Scott Kreitzberg is probably one of the kindest people I have ever met. He followed up in hospital after surgery and at the first office visit. He is compassionate, listens and truly makes one feel comfortable. I am so thankful for the recommendation of Dr. Raymond Hajjar.

Lynn S.

Saw Dr. Hajjar for a breast reduction as I was having health issues due to the size of my breasts. I am now 15 days post op and I look amazing. The scars are healing amazing and they’ve been there for all the questions and concerns I have. I’m already feeling relief in my back and other parts of my body. Best decision I’ve ever made. Highly recommend!
