Top Active Ingredients Used in Hydrodermabrasion Treatments
Hydradormabrasion is one of the most advanced non-invasive treatments combining exfoliation, hydration, and targeted active ingredients. Its effectiveness depends largely on the formulation used during each step. Below is an in-depth overview of the most beneficial substances incorporated into hydrodermabrasion solutions.
Botanical Hydrolates for Soothing and Skin Balance
Hydrolates are gentle, bioactive plant distillates used to calm and refresh the skin during exfoliating treatments. Their lightweight molecular structure helps restore skin comfort and provides antioxidant protection during hydrodermabrasion.
Examples of Hydrolates Used in Hydrodermabrasion
Rose hydrolate
improves hydration
supports antioxidant defense
increases comfort during exfoliation
Witch hazel hydrolate
tones and tightens
reduces redness and irritation
reinforces fragile capillaries
helps regulate sebum production
Sandalwood hydrolate
nourishes the skin
enhances elasticity and smoothness
ideal for mature or dull skin
Acids and Exfoliators Supporting Cell Renewal
Hydrodermabrasion solutions often include mild exfoliating acids that help dissolve dead cells and improve clarity. Salicylic acid, widely used in hydrodermabrasion, penetrates deep into pores and contributes to clearer, more balanced skin.
Key benefits:
regulates sebum production
reduces inflammation
dissolves compacted corneocytes
smooths uneven texture
Enzymes for Gentle Exfoliation in Sensitive Skin
Enzymatic exfoliants are excellent for clients who cannot tolerate stronger chemical exfoliation. Papain, derived from papaya, breaks protein bonds between corneocytes without causing irritation.
Synergy of Active Ingredients in Hydrodermabrasion
Hydrodermabrasion works because it combines exfoliating, hydrating, antibacterial, and soothing ingredients in one procedure. Hydrolates calm the skin, acids refine texture, enzymes brighten the surface, and regenerating ingredients help rebuild the barrier after exfoliation. This synergy allows for visible improvement in tone, clarity, and softness.
