  1. Skin Rejuvenation: A hydrafacial is a non-invasive treatment that combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection to improve the overall health and appearance of your skin. It can help to rejuvenate your skin, making it look fresher, brighter, and more youthful.
  2. Deep Cleansing: The hydrafacial treatment uses a unique vortex suction technology to remove dirt, oil, and impurities from your pores. It can effectively unclog pores and clean your skin, leaving it feeling refreshed and revitalized.
  3. Hydration Boost: During the hydrafacial, a specially formulated serum is infused into your skin, providing deep hydration. This can be particularly beneficial during the summer months when your skin may be more prone to dryness due to increased sun exposure and heat. Hydrated skin not only looks healthier but also feels smoother and more supple.
  4. Sun Damage Repair: If you’ve experienced sun damage, such as sunspots or uneven skin tone, the hydrafacial can help to address these issues. The treatment includes antioxidant-rich serums that can help to repair and protect your skin from damage caused by UV rays.
  5. Customizable Treatment: The hydrafacial treatment can be tailored to address specific skin concerns and conditions. Whether you have acne-prone skin, fine lines, wrinkles, or hyperpigmentation, the Seiff Center can customize the treatment to meet your individual needs and goals.
  6. Minimal Downtime: One of the advantages of hydrafacial is that it requires minimal downtime. You can typically resume your regular activities immediately after the treatment, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
  7. Expertise and Experience: The Seiff Center in Lewes is known for its experienced skincare professionals who are skilled in performing hydrafacial treatments. They have in-depth knowledge of skincare and can provide personalized recommendations and advice to help you achieve optimal results.

It’s worth noting that specific benefits may vary depending on your skin type, individual needs, and the expertise of the skincare professionals at the Seiff Center. It’s always a good idea to consult with a skincare professional to determine if a hydrafacial is suitable for you and to discuss your expectations and concerns.

Hydrafacial FAQ

What is a Hydrafacial?

  • Hydrafacial is an invigorating treatment that can be given in as little as 30 minutes. It delivers long-term skin health and can be tailored to meet the specific needs of all skin types. It offers instant, noticeable results with no downtime or irritation. The Hydrafacial treatment removes dead skin cells and extracts impurities while simultaneously bathing the new skin with cleansing, hydrating and moisturizing serums. The treatment is soothing, refreshing, non-irritating and immediately effective.

Am a I candidate for a Hydrafacial?

  • The Hydrafacial treatment is designed for all skin types. Even the most sensitive skin easily tolerates the Hydrafacial treatment.

How often should I get a Hydrafacial? 

  • Hydrafacial is a great treatment to do once a month to deep cleanse the skin and maintain skin health.

Is it good for blackheads?​

  • Hydrafacial is a great treatment to treat blackheads and clogged pores. It combines a skin softening serum, glycolic acid & salicylic acid to loosen up debris and dead skin. Then, the vortex extractions step uses suction to vacuum the surface of the skin and pull the impurities into the waste jar. If they are really stubborn, it probably will not get all of them! So, we recommend coming in once a month to treat & prevent the build up that can cause blackheads. 

Can I get a Hydrafacial if I am pregnant?

  • We always recommend asking your physician before booking an appointment with us to confirm what they think is appropriate for you. But, we are able to modify most of our services to be able to accommodate pregnant women.

Are there any post facial instructions that I need to follow?

  • Avoid make-up and sweating immediately after your facial, as it may irritate your skin. No saunas, hot tubs or steam rooms for 48 hours. Avoid direct sun exposure for 3-5 days. No retinol, Retin-A, tretinoin, acids or any other aggressive skin care products and exfoliation for 3-5 days before and after your treatment. And, as always, wear SPF and do not tan your skin.

A few TIPS from The Seiff Center for getting the most out of your injectable procedure!

DO Educate and Prepare Yourself Before Getting Dermal Fillers

Whether or not you are just starting to think about cosmetic injectables, or you have already made the decision to get dermal fillers, you should prepare yourself before you go in for a consultation or procedure. There is a lot of information on cosmetic dermatology out there and a lot of it is important to consider. If you feel overwhelmed by the amount of information available, our team is here to help.

  • Only get fillers from a qualified and experienced injector. Everyone ages differently and everyone’s face is different. It takes time and training for a person to know the right amount of filler to use and exactly where it should be injected for the best individual results.
  • Research the different types of fillers available so you can have an informed discussion during your consultation.
  • If you have a history of facial cold sores, then needle punctures can increase the chances of an outbreak. Talk to your provider about the risks.
  • Suggest waiting two weeks to getting filler prior to or after Covid Vaccinations.
  • If taking antibiotics — fillers (especially lips) should be avoided until after antibiotics are completed and infection is cleared up.
  • Pregnant and breastfeeding women should not get dermal fillers.
  • People with allergies to ingredients in the fillers should not get them either, so be sure you ask about the ingredients and share concerns with your provider.

DON’T Take Over the Counter Pain Killers Before the Procedure

You should discontinue use of any over-the-counter pain relievers at least a week before you get dermal fillers. Blood-thinning drugs like ibuprofen (Advil & Motrin), aspirin, and Aleve can increase the chances of bleeding, bruising, and complications during and after the injections.

DO Follow Instructions about Skincare and Supplements Prior to the Injections

  • Don’t wax, tweeze, bleach, or use hair removal products on the treatment area for at least two days before the treatment.
  • Do not use topical products for at least two days before the procedure. Treatments to avoid include Retinol, Retin-A, Retinoids, glycolic acid, and anything labeled “anti-aging”

DON’T Drink Alcohol for at Least 48-72 Hours Before the Procedure

Just like over-the-counter pain relievers, alcohol has a blood-thinning effect. This can lead to bruising and inflammation. It’s also a good idea not to drink for a day or so after the procedure to avoid inflammation and possible dehydration.

DO Follow Aftercare Instructions

  • Follow instructions given to you by your injector about ointments, like an Arnica ointment, to take care of the skin and reduce bruising after the appointment.
  • Ask your injector about icing the treatment area off and on throughout the day. Often, it is a recommended part of aftercare, but some treatments are best left without it.
  • Don’t exercise for a few days after you get the injections. You will probably feel fine and able to exercise, but the increase in blood flow and movement can “nudge” the fillers out of place.
  • Don’t touch, massage, or rub the area treated to avoid moving the fillers out of place. Wait at least 24 hours to put any kind of pressure on the affected skin.
  • Don’t expose yourself to direct sunlight for at least 24-48 hours after the injections. The skin will be sensitive and sun exposure, especially if you get a sunburn, can cause damage.
  • Staying hydrated will not only help you feel good overall, but fillers respond better to a hydrated body.

September 6, 2022 skicare

With the change in weather, there also comes a change in your skincare routine. As we enter September, we suggest a few ways to refresh your skincare routine. In addition to receiving the best care for your skin at The Seiff Center, we also empower you to become an expert in your skin’s care. 

MEGAPEEL

If you spent your summer at the beach, jump start your fall skin with a laser treatment.  the MEGAPEEL helps remove sun spots, reduce hyperpigmentation and even help get rid of acne and rosacea symptoms.

Focus on Hydration

While drinking water is always a good idea, we’re also talking about hydrating the skin! As things cool down, it’s important to make sure that the dry air doesn’t dry out your skin. We will work with you to find a moisturizer for your skin type. A great formula will create a barrier between your skin and the weather to protect from the elements. Additionally, it will lock in moisture which evaporates easily when the temperature drops.

FAVORITE SKINCARE for FALL: Designed for both moderate and severe signs of aging, Firming Serum features a ZO-exclusive complex that works synergistically with the skin’s natural regeneration functions to support healthy renewal for tighter, firmer-looking skin. Add this anti-aging hero to any ZO® protocol to reinforce damaged, post-summer skin.

Stock Up on Vitamin C 

A lack of vitamin C and other critical antioxidants in your routine can leave your skin looking dull and lifeless. In the fall specifically, incorporating powerful antioxidants can prevent (and even help to repair) damage from environmental stressors.

When vitamin C is used topically the skin accelerates the production of collagen and elastin, preventing premature aging and leaving skin looking refreshed and plump. The use of vitamin C topically can even help to reduce hyperpigmentation due to property in it that slows down the skin’s melanin production which produces discoloration.

Upgrade your routine with SEIFF CENTER Vitamin C Serum. This office favorite addresses the appearance of stubborn discoloration. The result is smooth, even skin.

We’re here to help you find the best solution for your skin, and we know that means a tailored approach. For a comprehensive consultation about how you can glow this year give us a call to set up an appointment in our Lewes or Dover Medispa 302-678-3443.
