The rain facial uses a medical device specially designed to provide customizable skincare. With this all-in-one approach, the rain facial can combine multiple treatments in a simple one hour treatment. Some of the features of the rain facial include: red light therapy, blue light therapy, lymphatic drainage, and suction tips that help extract free radicals and blackheads.

In recent years, blue and red light therapies have become more common with many over-the-counter devices available. The issue with these over-the-counter options is that they are not professionally administered. Red light helps promote the reproduction of your skin cells, which can help fight against wrinkles, fine lines, and may contribute to scar reduction. Blue light can break up oily and clogged skin to treat acne prone skin. It is also believed to be an effective treatment for sun damaged skin and may prevent the onset of skin diseases.

With so many options for your rain facial it can be difficult to know which is best for you and your skin. Our master estheticians have a deep understanding of their craft and they will evaluate your skin during your consultation to advise you on which packages and treatments will aid your skin most.

The Features Of The Rain Facial

As previously mentioned, the rain facial contains eight different heads that each perform a different function that benefits your skin. Not every head will necessarily be utilized during your Seattle rain facial because the facial is customized especially to your skin type and concerns. Just some of the  features of the rain facial include:

• Microdermabrasion: This is the foundation of our rain facial. This comes standard in both of our rain facial packages and are part of most rain facials performed at Seattle Plastic Surgery.  The microdermabrasion head uses water to lightly remove dead skin from the face and acts like microdermabrasion without fully removing the top layer of skin.
• Vacuum pen: The vacuum pen head gently sucks out blackheads and clogged pores to leave your skin fresh and clean. This head work especially well for those who suffer from frequent acne breakouts.
• Red light therapy: Using innovative LED lights, this therapy stimulates new skin and collagen growth to naturally rejuvenate your skin.
• Blue light therapy: Blue light has proven to kill the bacteria that commonly causes acne. This therapy is great for those with oily and acne prone skin.
• Skin scrubber: This deep cleaning head uses small pulses of electricity and vibrations to pull dirt, pollutants, and free radicals from your pores. In addition, if used in the opposite direction, it can infuse serums into the pores to promote skin health.
• Ultrasonic: The ultrasonic head uses high frequency sound waves to permeate deeply into the skin. This helps provide a deeper clean and clear away clogged pores.
• Lymphatic drainage: For those with fluid build up in the skin or inflammation, this head lightly massages away these toxins and buildup to even complexion and reduce uncomfortable side effects of inflammation.
