Learn How to Do a Hydrogen Oxygen Facial

Regular facials can help clients feel confident in their skin. Many spas and salons offer several types of facials to treat different skin issues or concerns. One innovative skincare option is Hydrogen Oxygen Facials, a facial treatment including technology that can treat a range of skin types. A Hydrogen Oxygen Facial treatment has a three-step process that cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates the face.

HICI Go is an online center that hosts a diverse catalog of health and beauty courses online for people anywhere in the U.S. With massage courses available online and in person at our partnering institutions in Florida and other states, you can access the instruction you need to grow your skills for personal use or to expand your opportunities in the industry.

How a Hydrogen Oxygen Facial Works

Only Licensed Estheticians may use a medical-grade device to administer the Hydrogen Oxygen Facial in three steps.

The first step is a cleansing and resurfacing treatment. The esthetician uses a serum to exfoliate dead skin cells gently, then applies a mixture of glycolic and salicylic acid. These acids are less harsh than a typical chemical peel, so the client is less likely to have scaly, irritated skin afterward.

The second step is to clear and hydrate the pores. First, the esthetician uses the Hydrogen Oxygen Facial device to apply gentle, painless suction over the surface of the client’s face. This clears out the pores, which are nourished with a moisturizing serum.

The final step of a Hydrogen Oxygen Facial is to protect the skin with a proprietary mix of antioxidants and peptides.

A Hydrogen Oxygen Facial session typically takes less than an hour. Unlike harsher resurfacing treatments, there is little to no downtime afterward. Most clients can resume their normal activities right away, although it is best to avoid additional exfoliating treatments for a few days. While each person is different, these facial treatments can typically be repeated every two to four weeks.

What Are the Benefits of a Hydrogen Oxygen Facial?

Hydrogen Oxygen Facials have become increasingly popular in recent years, and many professionals are getting instruction in this technique in esthetician programs. The benefits of a Hydrogen Oxygen Facial include:

  • Non-invasive: Hydrogen Oxygen Facials are gentler on the skin than traditional chemical peels or resurfacing, which can leave the skin red and irritated for days or even weeks.
  • Versatile: Hydrogen Oxygen Facials are safe for both adolescents and adults.
  • Immediate results: Many clients find that a Hydrogen Oxygen Facial delivers smoother, rejuvenated skin without irritation.

Skincare Continuing Education

While state licensing requirements vary by state, most professional estheticians will need to complete continuing education units (CEUs) to maintain their certifications each year. Through HICI Go, you can learn cutting-edge skincare techniques to expand your menu of spa or salon services. HICI Go offers courses in three formats:

All courses are taught by industry professionals and experienced instructors. While the course content is designed for estheticians seeking continuing education, registration is open to any non-professionals who just want to learn more about health and beauty.
