Micro Current

Micro Current, a radical new idea

Micro-current is a form of electrical massage that allows your face to attain better health naturally. This non-invasive, holistic modality is closest to the body’s own healing state, promoting homeostasis through rebalancing of ionic transport in the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous layers of the skin. Its unique wave form stimulation provides simultaneous muscle toning and re-education, thus providing both short- and long-term benefits.

To understand this we first need to understand what causes our facial skin to wrinkle and sag. As we age, our muscles become accustomed to certain expressions and tend to get stuck in these positions. A great example of this is the furrow between the eyebrows that many people get. At the same time, other muscles in our face are hardly ever used, and they begin to atrophy, which leads to sagging. An example of this can often be seen around our jaw lines, chins and necks where we tend to develop sagging or loss of definition as we get older. As we age, skin cells become less active, which leads to a breakdown of collagen and elastin. By the age of 45, the upper cheek muscles may elongate by as much as half an inch, dragging the skin over the cheeks downward to form plump little pouches at the corners of the mouth. The muscles under the chin become loose and the jaw line loses its firm contour.

There are 32 different muscles of the face that are manipulated during the microcurrent facial treatment. The treatment lifts, smoothes, tightens and tones. A toning massage is done with the microcurrent flowing to physically move the muscle into the desired position to perform muscle re-education – the process of lengthening or shortening muscles. Having muscle re-education movements performed in a series re-trains the muscles to maintain this new contour. Microcurrent treatment allows the muscles the necessary energy to keep their tension in this new contour.

How will it benefit me?

 Diminished appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

 Improved muscle tone in face and neck

 Improved circulation

 Lift of jowls and eyebrows

 Lymphatic drainage

 Better product penetration

 Smoother, firmer skin with improved elasticity

 Hydrated and revitalized skin

Will I see results after one treatment?

Since you are re-educating the muscle tissue, it is crucial that you receive a series of treatments for results to reach their maximum potential. A series of 6 treatments space every 3 weeks. Once a series is completed, the results can be maintained by coming in every 4-8 weeks for maintenance treatments this is client dependant. Additionally, a series can be repeated every few years. If the full series of treatments is completed and maintenance sessions are continued on a monthly basis, results should last 2-3 years.
