The evolution of beauty treatments have brought us to amazing places in the realm of skincare. With these new advancements, the use of invasive practices have become less and less necessary to achieve youthful, glowing results.
Let’s go over the intricacies surrounding the remarkable benefits of microcurrent facials and how they work to improve the overall appearance of your skin!
What is a microcurrent facial?
Quite different from some of the more common facials you’d receive at a spa, a microcurrent facial takes a whole new approach to effective skincare. The microcurrent process involves the application of small electric currents through the skin, reaching all the way down to your facial muscles. Working in tandem with your body’s natural electrical currents, this skin treatment stimulates the facial muscles which, in return, tightens the skin and provides immediately noticeable results.
How is microcurrent different from other facials?
While many popular facial services work on applying a balanced set of cleansers, exfoliants, and serums to the skin, microcurrent therapy focuses on the muscles lying beneath the skin instead of the skin itself. Focusing on the underlying issues instead of the surface-level concerns helps address the underlying cause instead of just the visual cues our bodies provide.
What are the benefits of a microcurrent facial?
Below we’ve outlined some of the many benefits that come from an effective microcurrent skin treatment.
Microcurrent facials are great at stimulating collagen production
Stimulating the facial muscle is only one part of the overall treatment. In addition to targeting the muscles below the skin, the microcurrents also help trigger the body’s natural collagen production response. As muscles are toned, the addition of newly stimulated collagen encourages the skin to regain its full, supple form, diminishing the presence of fine lines and wrinkles. Collagen is extra beneficial to more mature clients who may have lost elasticity and are trying to combat the side effects of aging skin.
The results of a microcurrent facial are immediate
The benefits of a microcurrent facial appear at two different times. Since the therapy is effective in reducing inflammation and promoting blood flow, most clients will see an immediate improvement in the reduction of swelling and puffiness in the face, as well as a brighter overall complexion. In the weeks following the session, as collagen begins to settle back into the skin, a second wave of results will show themselves.
Reduced signs of aging
With the second wave of benefits, the anti-aging properties of the treatment begin to show. Sagging skin, fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration will all begin to fade slowly over time. With repeated treatments, signs of aging are sure to be reversed.
Microcurrent facials are pain-free
The best part of the entire thing? No poking, no prodding, this facial is absolutely 100% pain free! The notion behind sending electric currents through your face may seem like it may cause discomfort, but the truth is you’ll feel calm and relaxed during your appointment.
At Skin Memory Spa, we want our clients to view their time with us as both skincare and self-care. Facials are a moment to get away from the stress and business of your day. Stress and mental wellbeing affect your skin just as much as your treatment!
The process of a microcurrent facial
Before you book your appointment, let’s take some time to understand the process that comes with using a microcurrent device.
How should you prepare for a microcurrent facial?
Preparation is simple – come to your appointment with clean, makeup free skin. For best results, avoid prolonged direct sun exposure for the few days leading up to your appointment to protect the integrity of your skin.
What to expect from your microcurrent facial appointment
Every facial begins with a thorough cleansing of the skin. Once cleaned, your esthetician will apply a thin layer of gel that helps aid the conductivity of the device. With the gel application completed, the microcurrent device will be gently brushed across the skin, tackling the entirety of the face with a little extra care placed on problem areas.
Additionally, at Skin Memory Spa, we use 3D Hyaluronic nano-infusion which plumps fine lines instantly. To provide gentle lifting, radio frequency stimulates skin tightening while microcurrent helps firm lax facial muscles. Ultrasonic infusions of luxury gemstone serums leave your skin radiant! Our serums include 24k gold, platinum, sapphire, ruby, & diamonds. Massage is utilized throughout the facial melts stress away, releasing tension in your face, neck and upper back.
What aftercare tips should you follow after microcurrent?
Once you’re all done, your skincare technician will clean you up and walk you through some important aftercare techniques. Always be sure to apply SPF and keep your skin sufficiently hydrated. To achieve best results, follow a daily skincare routine
