Beauty
A non-invasive
beauty treatment that exfoliates, extracts, hydrates, and protects skin-giving you the
most gorgeous after facial glow, the HydraFacial treatment is now my go to for
a quick skin pick me up! It’s a 30-40
minute facial treatment that leaves your pores thoroughly cleansed, skin
absolutely glowing, and you- feeling refreshed.
I’m a
sucker for facial treatments, and will try every beauty treatment out there. As I’ve hit my late 20’s, it takes more than
a basic at home skincare regimen to get that youthful glow. I’ve been on the search for a facial that
complements my at home skincare schedule and had the pleasure of trying the
HydraFacial treatment with Dr. Gina Danesh at Danesh Dermotology in her Beverly
Hills office.
The
treatment is for everyone, and caters to all skin types addressing concerns
like acne, congestion, enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, hyper-pigmentation, and
sun damage.

Gina cleaned my skin with a wipe, then began the multi step treatment:
1.
Vortex Cleansing:
What it does>> Gently exfoliates
the skin-removing dead skin cells and sebum
Personal Experience>> Felt like a cool, wet,
gentle microdermabrasion with long fast strokes
2.
Acid Peel:
What it does>> Salicylic and Glycolic acid mixture (GlySal) loosen pore
debries and dirt – essentially prevents formation of acne
Personal Experience>> Felt like light wet dabs with
suction. Painless, and rather
comfortable
3.
Vortex Extraction
What it does>> suction extracts
blackheads and impurities from your pores
Personal Experience >> Stronger suction is felt, but still
painless. Gina went over my chin and forehead
a few times as I had more congestion there.
4.
Vortex Fusion
What it does>> Detoxes,
rejuvenates, and restores skin by
infusing antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acids into the skin
Personal Experience>>
Personally my favorite step!
After the vortex extraction, my skin felt lighter and cleaner. Gina went over my freshly cleansed skin with
feather like strokes. I could feel the
cool antioxidants permeate my skin
Upon
finishing, Gina showed me the bottle containing my impurities. Floating in the tube was dead skin, debris,
and congestion of sorts. Disgusting
knowing that much gunk was in my pores, but satisfying seeing it all extracted!
As an add
on, Gina did an LED treatment with red and blue light. Red to treat fine lines & blue for
congestion and acne.
The
treatment was complete in less than an hour, and my skin felt amazing! I could feel it breathing as I stepped out of
the clinic. My pores and blackheads were
visibly diminished, skin left tighter, and overall, everything felt smooth,
supple, and moist. I attended an event
later that night, and had even more of a glow the next day as my makeup
effortlessly glided on.
Thank you
Dr. Gina Danesh for such a pleasant experience! She's professional, highly knowledgable, and an overall amazing doctor. You can book your facial at Danesh Dermatology by calling (310) 850-5441.

Winter in LA is always harsh on my skin and hair. Though its probably mellow compared to the east coasts cold and snow, my transition from Hawaii, where winter is almost nonexistent, to LA , was rather unappealing. I had brittle hair, flakey skin, and chapped lips. In an attempt to brave the upcoming winters, I tested various products throughout the years, and found 9 beauty must haves for these chilly months:
