HydraFacial vs Chemical Peel: Which Is Better for Your Skin in Delhi NCR?

The most popular aesthetic procedure widely available and opted for across the aesthetic industry is the hydramedifacial. From salons to clinics and from wellness centres to home services, HydraFacialis loved, liked and explored by masses across Delhi NCR. Unlike chemical peels, which have been prevalent for more than two decades but are still offered by clinics and wellness centres.

 

The key difference in the technology treatment Hydra, which utilises vortex suction for cleansing, infusion of serums, exfoliation and nourishment of skin without causing any irritation, is that it is a very gentle procedure. Wherein chemical peels use an active acid to accelerate cell turnover, and the depth of exfoliation is more than Hydra. It leaves the skin sensitive, and post-procedure, one needs to give a recovery time.

 

It's true that across Delhi NCR there is extensive variation of pricing, but it is justified because there is variation in quality too. When we talk about a salon session or an at-home session of the hydrafacial treatment. It is not recommended by any expert medical professional and is executed by a practitioner without any medical knowledge, owing to which the practitioner is unable to understand different skin requirements and skin conditions, and it cannot determine the outcome that the procedure will deliver on each skin. Also, the actives used can react strangely, and at times they use diluted amounts to play safe, impacting the result.

The clinics also have different prices to offer; again, it is justified too, as the medical-grade devices vary from USFDA-approved appliances to KFD- or CE-approved appliances, and the cost is in accordance with the quality of the appliance and serums used for the service.

The basic HydraFacial involves hydra dermabrasion and the use of potent serums for exfoliation, hydration and nourishment of skin, followed by cold hammer and LED. However, the advanced HydraFacial is executed with multiple steps, including ultrasonic cavitation, electroporation, radiofrequency and cold hammer, followed by LED.That shows the advanced hydra is better suited for mature skin with multiple concerns, and basic treatment is appropriate for skin in its early twenties or thirties with minimal concerns and when the person is only looking for skin rejuvenation, tan removal and glow.

 

The choice would largely depend on your expectation. Hydra being a range of Medi facials offers gentle rejuvenation and addresses skin concerns mildly. However, chemical peeling is a more aggressive procedure, and as the name suggests, it exfoliates the skin along with several other benefits. While it can also lead to a downtime of a few days to a few hours, it hydrates and boosts collagen too, according to the depth of skin treated and the strength of the peel administered. So, if you are expecting chemical peel treatment for the skin, peeling will be more fruitful than a Medi facial. But for skin maintenance and as a regular care regimen, Hydra Medi Facial is a quick, safe and no-stress treatment. So, make an informed choice and accomplish your goals with the professional guidance.

 

Yes, certainly, technically we can combine both these procedures for a stronger impact, but only under medical supervision. On your visit to the clinic, the expert is going to analyse the skin and understand your expectations, on the basis of which the best procedure or combination will be suggested.

 

After 2 to 4 weeks, one can plan successive sessions for a HydraFacial; however, when it comes to including a peel as a succession, we need to check with the status of skin recovery, and therefore, at times, around a 6- to 8-week gap is required.

Follow the regimen for at least a few months regularly to ladder the effect and get the best outcome.

The multistep procedure of Hydra has typically no downtime, and you can walk away with radiant skin and resume your daily regular activities without any hindrance or constraints. But when peeling is involved, the application of the active can make the skin sensitive for several days to weeks depending on your recovery; therefore, the application of sunscreen is paramount and non-negotiable. Also avoid application of any potent actives on the skin for a few days post-procedure and resume as advised by the expert.

Both Medi-facials and peels have distinct and unique benefits, and for more than a decade, these medical-grade procedures have been showering enhancement on guests experiencing them. These safer and quick options have evolved over the years, and in coming years we’ll notice more advancement in their execution protocols, and several other add-ons will be combined to improve their outcome.
