Microcurrent facial toning uses a harmless electric current to stimulate muscles under the skin, making them tighter and more toned.
Microcurrent therapy provides rapid results with no needles or discomfort. This procedure is safe enough to be used for medical treatments, but effective enough to give people aesthetically pleasing results.
You can use targeted exercise to work your abs or other muscle groups, but you will struggle to find exercises to tone and tighten facial muscles. Microcurrent toning stimulates and tightens facial muscles and connective tissues to give you a natural lift.
During microcurrent toning therapy, our specialist moves a wand with two tips over the skin. A very low-voltage current passes between the tips and through the skin and muscle. This makes the muscles contract and tighten. The electric current causes no damage.
This treatment has been described as “a workout for your face” because it sculpts and tones facial muscles. It also stimulates cells to produce new collagen and promotes cell growth.
Almost everyone is a good candidate for microcurrent facial therapy. All skin types can benefit. People who may not be good candidates include those with pacemakers or other devices that might be sensitive to electricity.
If you have recently had a neurotoxin treatment (like Botox®), this treatment will not be able to work on the muscles in those areas.
After tuning the equipment to the best voltage for your skin, our specialist will apply a gel to the treatment area to help the wand make contact. As the wand moves over your skin, the current passing between the tips creates muscle contractions.
No needles are involved and most individuals say they feel no discomfort. You will feel the muscles of your face get tighter and sometimes twitch.
The procedure can take ten to twenty minutes, depending on the areas being treated. Repeated treatments lead to improved results. For many people, this simple and comfortable therapy becomes part of their facial skincare routine.
You will experience no downtime. With this gentle, noninvasive procedure, you can leave the office looking better than when you came in. You can resume your regular routine right away.
Part of this treatment’s appeal is how low-impact and noninvasive it is. While other treatments can leave side effects like reddened or bruised skin, the only visible results from your microcurrent therapy are positive.
You will see results as soon as the procedure ends. Visible results from your microcurrent therapy include a reduction of fine lines, toned facial contours, and improved skin tone and texture.
Over time, most people notice more defined cheekbones and jawlines as well as healthier-looking skin. Scheduling appointments weekly or every two weeks will ensure that you maintain your youthful appearance.
