For full service instructions, please view the downloadable protocol below this section.

Performing an AquaBoost Treatment

• A full hydrodermabrasion session using AquaBoost only takes about 30 minutes
• Begin by cleaning and toning with your preferred skincare products. We recommend the Prosana Refining Cleanser and either the Prosana Refining Mist or Hydrating Mist

Begin Cleansing with AquaBoost

• You may use either Serum 1- Cleanse & Exfoliate or Serum 2- Deep Cleanse, depending on your client's specific need
  • Serum 1- Cleanse & Exfoliate will remove excess oils without stripping the skin and will gently slough away dead skin cells
  • Serum 2- Deep Cleanse is optional when additional purification is needed. Can be used on only the T Zone or areas of excessive oiliness if needed based on the client's skin analysis
• Begin the AquaBoost cleanse with the serum flow/pressure and suction turned completely down
• Press the S1 function button on the top of the device to activate the air suction hose, and press again to light up the button which indicates that the flow of serum has begun
• Once you have begun, you can start adjusting the serum flow and suction knobs to fit your needs
• Pro Tip: Test the AquaBoost serum flow and suction settings on the back of a gloved hand
• Pro Tip: Serum flow and suction settings can be adjusted throughout the treatment as needed, depending on the absorption rate
• Begin at the chin working in outward and upward movements. Once you reach the outer side of the face, pick up the handheld device and place it back down on the inner line. Continue in lines up the face, cheeks, nose, and T Zone
• Hold the skin taut as needed to prevent skin from lifting

Soothe & Hydrate

• Once you have completed all passes with Serum 1 and Serum 2, if necessary, you may begin using Serum 3- Soothe & Hydrate
• Serum 3- Soothe & Hydrate helps reduce the appearance of redness following hydrodermabrasion, helps rebuild vibrancy, and give clients a beautiful glow
• You may follow the same sequences you used to do Serum 1 and Serum 2 or use the Apply, Twist, and Remove technique designed to help plump fine lines and wrinkles. You can turn up the serum during this technique and gently press any remaining serum into the skin

Apply a Mask

• Now you may apply the mask of your choice to your client's skin - we recommend the Prosana sheet masks
• Select the mask you feel appropriate for your client's skin type or conditions
• Allow the mask to sit for the recommended timeframe
• Any remaining serum left on the skin by the mask can be used for the CryoWand step

Using the CryoWand

• Using the leftover serum from your sheet mask as a medium for gliding the device, swipe the CryoWand over the skin following the same movements used in the cleansing step with the handheld device
• The CryoWand helps to close the pores, promote firming, get vascular movement in the skin, and has blue LED lights which are known to help fight acne
• Remember that the CryoWand is very cold, so always check in with your client regarding their comfort and never hold the wand stationary. Keep the CryoWand moving at all times
• Pro Tip: If you need more serum, check your sheet mask package

Finishing Steps

• Massage any excess serum from the sheet mask into the skin
• Add your lip treatments, eye creams, or other treatments at this time
• Apply an SPF product
