Microcurrent

What is Microcurrent Facial Toning?

The average person does not really need invasive facial procedures to minimize the signs of aging.

Microcurrent Facial Toning makes it relaxing and easy to look younger in no time at all!

What is Microcurrent? Microcurrent Facial Sculpting technique is a low cost painless alternative for

those interested in the results of surgical cosmetic treatments. It is also called the lunch time face lift.

The treatment uses different waveforms of microcurrent, which stimulate the facial muscles using

traditional acupuncture points of the face and body. It is the best alternative for women who wish to get back

their youthful looks. Microcurrent facial & body sculpting has recently gained popularity in the US,

especially among Hollywood celebrities.  The benefits of the procedure include eliminating fine lines,

creases, and wrinkles, restoring the glow of youthful skin, visibly firming, contouring and lifting droop,

tightening sagging jowls, double chins, and fatty cheeks.  Microcurrent is a physical therapy modality

that has been in use for over 20 years.

How does the treatment actually work?

Microcurrent aids in reducing the signs of aging by utilizing a low level of electricity known as

microcurrent. These tiny microcurrent impulses trigger chemical reactions at a cellular level to enhance

the production of natural collagen and elastin, provide circulatory benefits and work directly on the

nerves and muscle fibers.  The result is visible firming and smoothing of the skin. Your body seems to use the 

Microcurrent energy to increase its own energy production.  Microcurrent increases the production

of ATP, your own chemical energy, by up to 500%.  To quote D. Tsoklis, an expert on the subject,

“Microcurrent is the reproduction of your own biological current. As we age, this current, which sends

messages from the brain to the muscles via the spinal cord, does not send those messages properly.

”The Microcurrent treatment restores those messages from the brain to tell the skin to rejuvenate. It helps tone facial muscles by our own

biological currents. That is why this treatment is such a safe alternative to some of the invasive and risky

treatments on the market today. 

How quickly will I notice a difference in my face?

Some clients notice a difference after the first treatment. Other clients will notice it after 3 or 4 treatments. 

The important thing to realize is that the effect is cumulative — that is, your face will become more

tightened and toned with each treatment. When you get the desired effect, you can begin your

maintenance program of having a treatment every 3 to 6 weeks, depending on your unique body. 

Why can't I feel it?

The current is so low it doesn't stimulate sensory nerves. 

What are the side effects?

Microcurrent changes muscle tissue, softens scar tissue, and increases circulation with the

effect of removing long stored waste products and increasing cellular metabolism so quickly that

there is often a detoxification reaction after treatment.  Some people have a similar reaction

after a massage but the reaction after Microcurrent can be stronger because so much is accomplished 

in such a short period of time. There have been no lasting adverse reactions reported. Microcurrent

has a history of being very safe.

Do the benefits last?

Every person responds individually but the changes to the tissues seem to be long lasting.

About 60 to 80% of the changes created in one treatment last until the next treatment,

about four to seven days. Your muscles are used to responding the way they are and may return to

the old configuration if not treated again, although some have had permanent changes in one treatment.
