Who is a candidate for a Microcurrent Facial?
Are you looking to lift and firm your skin and minimize fine lines and wrinkles? If yes, then you’re a candidate for a Microcurrent Facial. Microcurrent technology improves your facial contours and skin tone and revitalizes your lip and eye areas. This type of facial is also best for people looking for a noninvasive anti aging treatment.
What type of Microcurrent Facials are available at Skin Spa New York?
We offer both Microcurrent Facials and microcurrent brow treatments for a smooth, fresh, and youthful look. Give your face a new life and achieve a gorgeous brow lift that wows! With our premier microcurrent methods, your brows will be treated with soft-wave microcurrent technology that improves eyebrow contour, revitalizes your eyes, and gives you beautiful, youthful, visible results.
What is the process for getting a Microcurrent Facial at Skin Spa?
We begin delivering a very low voltage of precise electrical current to a cellular level of the skin and muscle. The microcurrent technology utilizes soft-wave therapy to lift and tone the contours of your face while removing wrinkles and unsightly blemishes. Anti-aging infusion serum is then applied to your skin to further refresh and revitalize your appearance. Our trained aestheticians will ensure you feel at ease throughout the process, and we’re happy to answer your questions.
How long is the treatment?
When you think of facials, you may imagine painful chemical peels and long hours beneath bright lights. In reality, today’s latest facials are painless, quick, and effective. Our energizing NuFACE 30-minute Microcurrent Facial is a must-have for achieving visible anti-aging results with no downtime.
How does microcurrent work?
Microcurrent is positive and negative electric currents that mimic the body's natural current to stimulate muscles, and essentially provide a "work-out" for your face. Our face is the only area where the muscles connect directly to the skin tissue and so we can easily stimulate the muscles with this technology.
You will see more lifted eyelids, smoother lines around the lips and eyes and more sculpted cheekbones.
Am I candidate for Microcurrent?
Microcurrent is a safe, noninvasive procedure that’s beneficial for all different skin types looking to revive their skin and lift and sculpt their facial contours.
If you have epilepsy, are pregnant or breast-feeding or have current breakouts, you are not a candidate for this treatment.
Is Microcurrent painful?
Microcurrent uses an ultrasonic gel as a conductor for the current to penetrate the skin and stimulate the muscle. Therefore you feel very little on the surface of the skin, you may feel some slight tingling near the hairline, and may taste a metallic taste in your mouth if you have metal fillings, however the procedure is quite relaxing. You may resume normal activity immediately post-treatment.
How many treatments will I need?
You will see a temporary lift after one treatment, however for long-term benefits, we recommend purchasing a NuFace device to use at home for 5 minutes a day or coming for 6 treatments, up to 2 times per week for maximum results.
