Glass Facial - Clinical Expertise. Evidence-Based Aesthetics. Lasting Results.
As a physician serving Irvine and the greater Orange County community, I have dedicated my practice to advancing both medical and aesthetic outcomes for our patients. At Spectrum Skin Clinic, our physician-led approach ensures that every facial treatment is grounded in clinical expertise, safety, and proven results. The Glass Skin Facial, performed exclusively with the Candela Glacē™ system, exemplifies this commitment—delivering transformative skin health with medical precision and advanced technology.
Understanding “Glass Skin”: A Clinical Perspective
“Glass skin” describes a complexion that is exceptionally smooth, luminous, and even in tone—an indicator of optimal hydration and robust skin barrier function. While the term originated in Korean dermatology, its principles are universal: healthy, hydrated, and resilient skin. Environmental factors common to Orange County, including sun exposure, air pollution, and seasonal dryness, can compromise skin integrity. For patients seeking year-round radiance or preparing for special occasions, achieving “glass skin” is both an aesthetic and medical goal.
Why Choose a Physician-Led Glass Skin Facial?
At Spectrum Skin Clinic, every facial is overseen by a medical doctor, ensuring:Customized protocols based on your unique skin type and health historySafe treatment for individuals with underlying conditions or sensitivitiesIntegration of medical-grade technology for superior outcomesThis physician-led approach distinguishes us from non-medical spas and provides our patients with the highest standard of care.
The Candela Glacē™ System: Advanced Technology for Proven Results
The Glass Skin Facial utilizes the Candela Glacē™ platform, an FDA-cleared, multi-modality device designed for comprehensive skin rejuvenation. This system combines three clinically validated technologies:
Hydrodermabrasion: A non-invasive exfoliation and hydration process that removes dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and infuses the skin with targeted serums. Unlike traditional dermabrasion, hydrodermabrasion is gentle, suitable for all skin types, and enhances both texture and barrier function.
Cupping Massage: Utilizes controlled negative pressure to stimulate lymphatic drainage and microcirculation. This process promotes toxin removal, reduces puffiness, and optimizes serum absorption for deeper, longer-lasting results.
LED Technology: Delivers specific wavelengths of light to stimulate collagen synthesis, reduce inflammation, and accelerate skin repair. Clinical studies support the efficacy of LED in improving tone, texture, and overall skin health.For more on the Candela Glacē™ platform and supporting clinical data, visit Candela Medical: Glacē™ Hydrodermabrasion.
