MICROCURRENT FACIAL
Microcurrent is like taking your face to the gym for a workout!
SHORT HISTORY OF MICROCURRENT FACIAL TONING
The use of radiofrequency (RF) facial toning is highly effective for treating sports injuries, burns, and wounds, aiding the body to heal up to 350% faster than without therapy. In 1830, Dr. Carlos Matteucci discovered that the body emits electrical charges when injured.
By the early 1900s, Dr. Thomas Wing used microcurrent to treat Bell’s Palsy and strokes, leading to RF therapy development. The RF machine isolates a low-level current to tone, lift, and re-educate muscles, providing a non-surgical facelift.
RF facial toning is painless and safe. After one treatment, muscle tone improves, fine lines reduce, and skin appears lifted, resulting in younger-looking, healthier skin.
WHAT IS A MICROCURRENT FACIAL?
The human body has its own natural energy and current. Microcurrent (which means mild electrical) uses this low-level electrical current (up to 640 microamperes) to re-educate the facial muscles. The electrical current used for this facial is almost the same as your own body’s bio-electrical field. The microcurrent facial works in harmony with the body.
If you have skin with fine lines, wrinkles, decreased elasticity or sun damaged, muscle lifting treatment can restore a more youthful appearance. It will give the facial muscles and skin a “workout” that stimulates collagen and elastin. A microcurrent facial is a non-surgical face lift.
WHAT CAN MICROCURRENT DO?
The microcurrent facial (also known as the Muscle Lifting Treatment at Bella Reina Spa) works over 32 muscles in the face. The treatment is a four-step process as follows:
- Ultrasonic (sonophoresis) Microdermabrasion to exfoliate and prepare the skin. This gentle exfoliation improves the circulation in the skin. It is very gentle, good for all skin types, and less aggressive than the old-fashion crystal microdermabrasion.
- Microcurrent lifting of over 32 muscles to lift, smooth, tighten and tone the skin. (even around the delicate eye area) A T-Prong works for the large muscles around the jawline, while smaller probes lift the more delicate muscles. This positioning of the probes re-educates and re-trains the muscles to hold the energy in their new position.
- Ultrasonic Infusion of peptides, vitamins, and serums at 4,000 times more effective absorption than manual application.
BENEFITS OF MICROCURRENT FACIAL TREATMENT
- Up to 500% increase in cellular energy to cells (ATP) in muscles to increase tone (ATP is adenosine triphosphate and is the driver for cellular activity)
- Fibroblast Activity was increased Up to 60% (this is collagen production)
- Up to 73% increase in Protein Synthesis (this is elastin production and results in improved elasticity)
- The ability of the cells to absorb was increased by Up to 40%. (this is actual absorption in the cells and healthier cell production)
- Works on improving skin tissue e.g: Acne scarring, sun damage, dry/dehydrated skin.
- Stimulates the blood circulation and lymphatic drainage
- Softens fine lines and wrinkles and re-hydrates the skin
- Cumulative results with Improved Muscle Tone in the Face and Neck
- Lifting of Jowls, Eyebrows, and Cheeks
Microcurrent facials, while completely non-invasive, will sculpt, tone, and tighten the skin. The re-education and toning of the facial muscles reduce the overall visual appearance of aging. The more treatments you have, the better the improvement in your skin, so a series of treatments is recommended for the maximum benefits. Book now or call +1-561-404-7670 for a reservation.
WHAT WILL A SERIES OF MICROCURRENT FACIALS DO FOR YOU?
As we grow older, muscles in our face because of facial expressions either get looser or tighter. Some muscles are hardly used (like around the jawline) and that can cause sagging. Other muscles and expressions lead to the lines that are formed by repeated use. Examples are the furrow or “elevens” and the smile lines. With the addition of overuse and underuse of muscles, the skin is also having a breakdown of collagen and elastin which contributes to facial aging.
The Muscle Lifting Facial (aka Microcurrent Facial) takes about 1 hour for each treatment. Most people will need at least a series of 10-12 sessions to see the maximum benefit, but immediate results are seen with the first treatment. Treatments are recommended 1 to 3 times per week.
According to this study conducted, “Consider of Micro-Current’s effect on the variation of Facial Wrinkle trend, Randomized Clinical Trial Study”, treatment satisfaction was 70%. For our clients, one microcurrent treatment will deliver 2-3 days of lift, while a series of 10 to 12 treatments give anywhere from 6 to 18 months of lift. The muscles maintain their position better and longer after each treatment.
Microcurrent really works for aging, as its popularity combines with other skin luminous treatments. The most popular right now is the MICRO-DERMA-ZEN which combines dermaplaning, ZEN nano technology, and a hydrogel mask for the perfect non-surgical facelift.
MICROCURRENT FACIAL RECOMMENDED TREATMENT SCHEDULE
The number of sessions depends entirely on your skin condition and lifestyle. The effects build every time. The muscle will hold the new position longer. Typically clients will notice approximately a 5-7 year reduction in facial age.
Other: Great for quick pick me up or special occasions as results last up to 2 days. Excellent for post-surgical facelifts for maintenance.
