The Facial You MUST Know About
Amy Riposo went to RELAX The Spa in Victor to sample their signature Hydrafacial. This is the facial that RELAX The Spa is known for, and it is receiving rave reviews across the country.
I’ve been to RELAX The Spa before and was counting the days to my hydrafacial appointment. Thoughts of that cozy plush robe, unwinding in the quiet room enjoying some me time, and finding out if this facial was worth all the hype … heck yeah, I was up for some beauty research. Spa Day arrived, and I cant wait to tell you about this facial!
My spa experience was nothing short of spectacular.
I walked in to a warm welcome, and was shown to the locker room to change into one of the coziest robes ever.
I wanted to live in this robe!

This spa junkie highly recommends coming early enough to enjoy time in the quiet room before and after your spa treatement. Take some time to clear your mind, and sit by the fireplace and leave your day behind you. More tea please.
I relaxed in the quiet room sipping orange water while my stress started to melt away.
On to the facial!
Science meet beauty.

This is the good stuff- infused into your skin, healing it and plumping it from within.
The hydrafacial combines microdermabrasion with water and infuses your skin with ingredients that help re-build collegen and elastin. Sound like a dream come true?
Microdermabrasion exfoliates skin, removing the outer layer and revealing healthier skin. The hydrafacial uses water to exfoliate while also infusing ingredients deep into the skin. This process gets youth inducing ingredients such as antioxidents, peptides, and hyaluronic acid into the deepest layers of the skin, not just on the surface. None of this hurt or even felt uncomfortable. In fact it felt good.
Laser light therapy.
Red UV light is also used which my esthetician Scherra informed me stimulates the production of collegen and elastin, and reduces redness from irritation. The Red light is the deepest penetrating light on the UV spectrum so it gets to all layers of the skin, even the muscle below. Sounds amazing, right?! This didn’t hurt either. You actually don’t feel anything, but you can see out of the corners of your protected eyes, red light coming from the fancy equipment they use.
I highly recommend Scherra. She answered all of my questions and her massage was HEAVENLY. The Pure hydrafacial comes with an amazing massage of the shoulders, neck and décolleté.
Do I look peaceful or what?

Add-On
To be thorough in my research, I wanted to try one of the facial add-ons. I chose the CTGT Add-On. It infused human derived growth factors into my skin to trigger cell rejuvenation.

All of the science behind this facial sounds like everything your skin might want or need to erase fine lines and look younger. The verdict- My skin looked like it was plumped from within, and had a healthy glow. I give the hydra facial two enthusiastic thumbs up! It’s the best facial I’ve ever had.
My post facial glow (inside and out)!
xoxo,
Amy
