About Body Skin Health & Radiance (Hydrafacial)

Extending Skin Health Benefits to the Body

While facial skincare often takes priority, the skin on our body deserves attention too! Common concerns like back acne ('bacne'), rough and bumpy skin (Keratosis Pilaris or 'chicken skin'), dryness, dullness, and uneven texture can affect areas like the back, arms, legs, chest, and buttocks. These issues can cause discomfort, self-consciousness, and prevent skin from looking and feeling its best.

Hydrafacial Technology for Body Rejuvenation

PRP London Clinic is pleased to offer Hydrafacial Body Treatments, adapting the same advanced vortex technology renowned for facial rejuvenation to address skin concerns on the body. The Hydrafacial system uses a unique multi-step process involving lymphatic drainage (optional), deep cleansing, exfoliation, painless extraction of impurities from pores, and infusion of nourishing, hydrating serums.

Targeted Solutions for Common Body Skin Concerns

Hydrafacial Body Treatments can be tailored to target specific concerns in different areas. For instance, a 'back facial' can deeply cleanse pores and exfoliate to combat bacne, while treatments on arms and legs can help smooth rough texture associated with Keratosis Pilaris and alleviate dryness. The process leaves body skin feeling cleaner, smoother, more hydrated, and looking visibly brighter and healthier.

Is This Treatment Right for You?

Ideal Candidates

  • Individuals experiencing back acne, chest acne, or shoulder acne
  • Those with Keratosis Pilaris (rough, bumpy skin) on arms, thighs, or buttocks
  • People with dull, dry, or dehydrated skin on their body

  • Those looking for deep cleansing and exfoliation for the body
  • Anyone wanting improved body skin radiance

Clinical Contraindications

  • Severe, cystic body acne (may require medical assessment first)
  • Active skin infections, open wounds, or sunburn in the treatment area
  • Certain widespread skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis flare-ups in the area
  • Known allergies to ingredients in Hydrafacial serums (e.g., salicylic acid, glucosamine - discuss with practitioner)

Treatment Process

Hydrafacial Body Treatments adapt the core 3-step facial process for larger areas:

1. Cleanse + Peel: Deep cleansing and gentle exfoliation using hydro-dermabrasion uncovers a new layer of skin. A light peel solution (glycolic/salicylic acid) helps loosen pore debris.

2. Extract + Hydrate: Painless vortex suction removes impurities and debris from pores.

3. Fuse + Protect: The skin is saturated with antioxidants and peptides for hydration and protection. Specific boosters can sometimes be incorporated depending on the area and concern.

Larger handpiece tips and specific protocols are used for efficient treatment of body areas like the back, arms, legs, or buttocks.

Diagnosis & Assessment

Diagnosis is typically based on visual assessment of the skin on the body area of concern during a consultation. The practitioner will identify the specific condition (e.g., acne, KP, dryness) and assess its severity. Your skincare routine and relevant medical history will be discussed to ensure Hydrafacial is appropriate and to tailor the treatment.

Prevention & Management

Lifestyle Tips

  • Shower promptly after exercise to wash away sweat
  • Wear loose-fitting, breathable clothing, especially during exercise
  • Avoid harsh body soaps or scrubs that can strip the skin
  • Change bed linen regularly
  • Maintain a balanced diet and adequate hydration

Home Care

  • Use gentle body washes; consider those with salicylic acid for acne-prone areas
  • Moisturise body skin daily, especially after bathing
  • Use lotions containing AHAs (like glycolic or lactic acid) or BHAs (salicylic acid) for exfoliation and KP
  • Exfoliate gently 1-2 times per week
  • Avoid picking at body acne or bumps
