A facial is a professional cleansing, purifying, and beautifying treatment of the skin on the face and neck. A typical facial deeply cleanses and freshens the skin by cleansing, steaming, analysis, exfoliating, and microdermabrasion, which removes the dead skin cells. A gentle massage produces lymphatic drainage and is followed by extraction of blackheads and other impurities. High frequency and Light Stim (blue) calm the skin, (red) increases production of collagen and elastin. Microcurrent is a low level of electrical current, which reduces the appearance of aging. Finally, the appropriate application of products is targeted to your skin type (dry, oily, mixed sensitive, mature.)

Benefits of microdermabrasion:

• Treat aging and sun-damaged skin, altered pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, some types of acne and acne-scarring.
• Microdermabrasion removes dead surface skin cells and initiates cellular turnover.
• Results may include improved skin tone, reduced visual appearance of aging, fewer breakouts, diminished appearance of scars, refined skin pores, renewed elasticity, and a healthy glow.

Benefits of Lymph Drainage:

• The lymphatic system supports the body's immunity and gently stimulates lymph nodes. It helps correct swelling and stagnation in the nodes. Boosting the immune system reduces local fluid retention and provides relaxation.

Benefits of High Frequency:

• The sensory receptors in the skin respond to light energy. The neon gas (orange) is beneficial to dry skin, the argon gas (violet) is beneficial to acne skin.
• Stimulates blood and lymph flow
• Increases metabolism
• Generates heat within the tissues
• Aids in elimination of toxins
• Aids in the penetration of product
• Produces antiseptic ozone
• Encourages the skin to manufacture collagen and elastin
• Maintains muscle and skin tone

Benefits of Light Stim (LED light therapy)

• LED light can help reduce inflammation, stimulate collagen and elastin production, and improve the overall health of the skin, making it an effective modality for a skin care practice.

Anti-Aging light

• Stimulates collagen and elastin, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin tone, and firm
• Helps to minimize pore size and increase moisture retention
• Helps prevent environmental damage

Acne light

• Destroys acne causing bacteria to minimize future breakouts
• Reduces redness and inflammation
• Accelerates healing

Microcurrent

A microcurrent is a low level of electrical current, which mimics the body's own electrical current, working at the cellular level to restore health and healing. It has been proven safe and effective to diminish fine lines and wrinkles, tone, and tighten skin, providing a more youthful appearance, improve skin texture, supportive of acne treatments.

As the body ages, cellular function is diminished and skin loses its elasticity. The aging process begins to show outwardly in the form of dull skin tone, lines, and wrinkles, sagging jowls, and general overall appearance of aging.

Benefits: sessions of low level current have a cumulative effect in the increase of Collagen, for support of muscles, Elastin, for skin suppleness and youthful appearance.

Microcurrent has been shown to stimulate Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP,) for cellular support. ATP is required for all muscles and cellular functions of the body. Additional benefits include: reduction of inflammation, and uplifting and toning of facial contours.
