The benefits of Microcurrent, How it evolved and how it works
Microcurrent The Ultimate Age-Defying Facial.
This facial enhances facial sculpting, contouring and lifting. it boosts collagen and plumps and provides intense hydration for glowing skin which helps to diminish the appearance of fine lines and is totally pain free.
How it works
Using low-voltage microcurrent electricity, we stimulate facial muscles to give the face and neck the ultimate age defying workout. Sculpting and lifting and contouring is made possible by using microcurrent in tandern with physical kinesiology movements that shorten and lengthen the various muscles of the face. these techniques help to reinforce the targeted muscles to stayin their newly contoured position for a longer period of time.
History of Microcurrent
The Microcurrent Facial is a holistic, non-invasive and science backed treatment. It has been used medically since the 1980s approved by the TGA as a muscle stimulator to treat Bell's palsy and muscle paralysis treatment. After improved results were seen in patients with atrophied, sagging facial muscles, Microcurrent was used as an anti-ageing tool. Microcurrent treatment is now used in clinics to enhance facial sculpting, contouring and lifting.
The Ultimate Age-Defying Facial, which we have on offer at our clinic, stimulates the facial muscles to give your face an age-defying ultimate workout. First we cleanse and exfoliate your skin followed by a skin peel, a clinical grade microdermabrasion which prepares your skin for the microcurrent facial, followed by an LED treatment and then the enhanced infusion of Sonophorisis treatment with vitamins and minerals.
This Facial treatment provides you with plumper-looking skin with lift around the brows with a more defined jawline, with more prominent cheekbones. While visible results will be seen after one treatment, best results can be seen after a sequence of treatments of twice a week for 5 treatments and then staggered once a month.
Lets get a bit technical on the workings of Microcurrent -
As our skin bares the brunt of attacks by UV Rays, Stress and Pollution which causes skin ageing. The energetic theory of ageing starts at the centre of our cells where you will find the Mitochondria.
Mitochondria's are the energy producers for our cells, they convert the food we eat into chemical energy in the form of Adenosine Triphosphate ATP. As we age our mitachondria becomes less sufficient at producing ATP, this provides less energy for our cells.
The Lack of energy especially in times of stress results in reduced cellular resilience and an increase in un-repaired damage, this is ultimately defined as the ageing process.
In short .....microcurrent is a precise application which is a specific energetic waveform applied to the skin through facials, to help boost energy production. This abundance of energy process tightens the muscles and connective tissues in your face and neck, which in turn, stimulates key cellular activities such as collagen production, lymphatic drainage, skin lifting and texture smoothing
By promoting skin health by increasing energetic levels, we are helping to reduce the Signs of Skin Ageing and bring back that youthful appearance of health and vitality.
