INTENSIVE HYDRATING TREATMENT - 75 MIN

The Sothys Hydration Intensive Treatment (also known as the Hydra Hyaluronic Acid 4 treatment) is a professional 75-minute, six-phase facial designed to provide deep, long-lasting hydration, plump the skin, and restore a youthful appearance. It is available at Sothys institutes and spas and utilizes a combination of four sources of hyaluronic acid and patented active ingredients. 

Treatment Details & Benefits

The treatment is a high-performance facial that combines technical advancement with sensory pleasure. It uses Sothys' signature Digi-Esthétique® method, an exclusive application technique blending acupressure and modeling techniques to optimize product absorption and promote relaxation. 

  • Deep Hydration: The primary benefit is intense, targeted moisture that replenishes the skin's water levels. Clinical studies cited by Sothys show a significant increase in hydration, even hours after application.

  • Youthful Radiance: By boosting hydration, the treatment minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, promoting a more radiant and youthful complexion.

  • Enhanced Elasticity and Texture: The hydrating properties smooth and refine the skin's texture, improving elasticity and resilience against environmental stressors.

  • Key Ingredients: The core of the treatment lies in its unique complex combining four different molecular weights of hyaluronic acid (to target multiple skin layers) and two patented Sothys active ingredients: 1055 boletus extract (a hyaluronic acid booster) and organic rowan berry peptides (to strengthen the skin's protective film). 

The Six-Phase Professional Protocol

The in-spa treatment follows a specific six-step procedure for maximum efficacy: 

  1. Enzymatic exfoliating gel: To eliminate impurities and prepare the skin for treatment.

  2. Restructuring serum: To restore skin comfort and support cellular regeneration.

  3. Intense hydration gel mask: To "quench" the skin with an initial surge of moisture.

  4. Modeling mask: A luxurious phase using Sothys-specific massage techniques to restore a strong cutaneous barrier.
