You can expect the following amazing improvements:
- Revitalized Complexion: High frequency facials stimulate blood circulation and oxygenation, promoting a vibrant, glowing complexion.
- Combat Acne and Blemishes: Say goodbye to pesky breakouts! The antibacterial properties of high frequency facials help reduce acne-causing bacteria, leaving your skin clearer and smoother.
- Rejuvenated and Firm Skin: Stimulate collagen and elastin production for firmer, more youthful-looking skin. Say hello to a revitalized, radiant appearance.
- Targeted Solutions: Address specific skin concerns with precision. Whether it’s reducing puffiness around the eyes or enhancing overall skin texture, high frequency facials offer targeted solutions tailored to your needs.
How it works:
- Stimulation: The currents stimulate blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, promoting the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the skin cells and aiding in the removal of toxins.
- Oxygenation: The high frequency can enhance oxygenation of the skin, which can help improve cell metabolism and overall skin health.
- Antibacterial Properties: The treatment can have antibacterial effects, making it beneficial for acne-prone skin by reducing bacteria on the skin’s surface.
- Collagen Production: Some proponents claim that high frequency can stimulate collagen and elastin production, which are important for skin elasticity and firmness.
What you can expect:
- During the procedure:
- The high frequency facial device consists of a glass electrode attached to the main unit. The electrode comes in different shapes and sizes for various skin areas.
- Before starting the treatment, the skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, dirt, or oil. This ensures better conductivity and effectiveness of the treatment.
- A conductive gel or serum is applied to the skin. This gel helps the electrode glide smoothly over the skin and improves the conduction of electrical currents.
- Alternatively, the therapist may apply gauze to the treatment area (without any gel or serums).
- The aesthetician then applies the glass electrode to the skin in gentle, sweeping motions. The device emits a high-frequency alternating current, typically in the range of 100,000-250,000 Hz (cycles per second).
- After the procedure:
- Following the procedure, your skin will return to normal immediately and you may resume activities.
- Use a broad-spectrum SPF30 sunscreen daily.
- Post-Treatment Care:
- After the high frequency facial, skincare products like moisturizers, serums, and sunscreens may be applied to nourish and protect the skin.
It’s essential to note that while high frequency facials are generally considered safe and non-invasive, they may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with certain medical conditions or sensitive skin. It’s always advisable to consult with a skincare professional before undergoing any new treatment.
