MICROCURRENT FACIALS (non-surgical face
lifts)
A microcurrent facial is
a non-invasive, painless and
relaxing procedure. Sub-sensory electrical currents are
applied to your skin and its underlying muscles. These
low-level electrical currents have been shown to dissolve dermal
scar tissue and regenerate the
sub-dermal layer. Microcurrent treatment has also been shown
to help with acne scars,pitted skin, as well as many types of wrinkles.
Treatment usually
requires about 6 weekly sessions, and you should be able to tell
whether it’s going to be successful within 3 sessions, as
this is usually when people start to notice results.
Before treatment, an
initial 1 hour assessment will be required, to assess your individual
requirements and set a protocol for your particular skin
condition.
Each microcurrent facial
session is between 45 minutes to 1 hour long. A natural skin
cream is smoothed onto your face, before the technician applies probes
and/or electrodes to your skin. These probes emit low
frequency electrical currents which penetrate the skin and underlying
muscles. This treatment has been shown to improve blood
circulation and metabolism in the skin and improve lymphatic
drainage. The skin and underlying muscles are
oxygenized and revitalized, improving skin tone and colour.
The treatment also hydrates, firms and smoothes the skin and
may greatly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
NB: We
do not use microcurrent on pregnant women or people with a pacemaker.
