COSTS + RISKS WHAT IS MICROCURRENT FACIAL? A microcurrent facial is often referred to as a “natural” facelift. “This safe and painless facial helps erase fine lines and wrinkles, while firming your skin and defining your features. It improves muscle tone, reduces puffiness, increases cellular activity, and tightens pores. The overall result is a healthier and younger looking skin, no matter your age,” Microcurrent technology has been around since the 1800’s as a treatment for damaged tissues and muscles. But when a physician of a Bell’s palsy patient noticed that the face of his patients appeared much smoother and younger looking after receiving microcurrent therapy, one of the world’s first high-tech aesthetic treatments was born. A microcurrent facial emits extremely low-voltage electrical currents (hence ‘micro’ current), which mirror your own body’s electrical currents, on a cellular level to repair damaged skin and stimulate collagen and elastin production. The intensity is so slight that it would take one million microcurrent machines to light a 40-watt light bulb. This treatment is often referred to as “facial toning” because it’s like a workout for your face, whereby skin cells are broken down and then grow back stronger, the same way your muscles do after lifting weights. “It works simultaneously to repair a product collagen in the dermis, the deepest layer of your skin, while gently erasing signs of aging in the epidermis, the top layer of your skin. According to studies, a microcurrent facial can increase collagen production up to 14%, elastin increases 48% and blood circulation goes up 38%,” WHO IS MICROCURRENT FACIAL FOR? A microcurrent facial is ideal for anyone who wants to improve the appearance of their skin, whether they are more focused on an anti-aging or preventative treatment because it covers all the bases. It is safe and effective on all skin types and skin colors. Pregnant women and people with any kind of heart condition should avoid this treatment. As always, discuss any allergies or skin sensitivities with your cosmetic doctor or aesthetician before starting a treatment. HOW IS MICROCURRENT FACIAL DONE? “The microcurrent facial uses hand held prongs that deliver precise dosages of energy to the skin. As the aesthetician methodically moves the prongs around your face, you may feel a slight tingling sensation, but most say it’s surprisingly relaxing. Of course you can expect all the other pleasures of a classic facial incorporated into the microcurrent facial, such as cleansing, exfoliating, moisturizing and facial massage. book a microcurrent facial treatment today BOOK WITH US TODAY :) HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE? 60 to 90 minutes WHAT IS THE AVERAGE COST OF MICROCURRENT FACIAL? $200 to $600 OUR PRICE $185 WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS OF MICROCURRENT FACIAL?

For sustained results, the recommended course of treatment is series of 10 to 15 (PKG PRICING AVAILABLE) treatments within the first 6 weeks, followed by a 3-month maintenance schedule. WHO SHOULD ADMINISTER THIS TREATMENT?

There are several different schools you can attend, but ultimately you have to pass an administered written and practical exam to get your licence.

Style icon Diane von Furstenburg admittedly books this treatment once a week.
