Fall in Love with Microcurrent....

​We are delighted to offer our new Microcurrent Treatment or 'Facial Gym' in the salon. 
This popular face treatment will give you younger looking, healthier skin no matter what age you are or what skin type you have.
 
What is it?
A microcurrent treatment is essentially a gym work out for your face.  It works by lifting and defining the muscles in the face, boosting skin laxity to give a more fresh and youthful appearance.  It is painless and has zero recovery time. You can easily have it done on your lunch break and return to work afterwards. No redness, no swelling, no marks on the skin.  It is a safe, non-invasive alternative to dermal fillers and surgery.
But, use it or lose it, microcurrent does need regular maintenance sessions to have lasting effects.  Think of when you go to the gym, you work really hard to get the physique you want, but then you have to continue to exercise regularly to keep that physique. If you don’t you will lose all of the hard work you put into it. 
Don’t worry though, you won’t need to do facials every day. When you reach the maintenance part of your programme, we will have you pop in every 4-6 weeks to keep up your results.

So.....how does it work?
Microcurrent treatments have been around for decades. They have been used medically since the 1970s to treat pain and facial paralysis, having wonderful effects on conditions such as Bell’s Palsy. 
In the beauty industry we use a very low voltage current to stimulate the facial muscles to lift, sculpt and tone. 
Using two handpieces we deliver mild electrical stimulation directly to the muscles, lifting them up and retraining them to sit back in their original position. 

This current also stimulates the deeper dermis layer of the skin to produce new collagen, to help combat fine lines and wrinkles.  Results can often be seen after one treatment, but for best results we recommend a course of 6 – 10 treatments.  You will see longer lasting results between treatments as your programme progresses, and your muscle memory begins to kick in. 
The treatment also boosts blood flow to the skin making it appear more radiant and healthy.  Microcurrent can be a great alternative to fillers and surgery as it is a non-invasive, injection free and painless treatment. 
We recommend treating the entire face, but it is possible to treat individual and isolated areas, such as around the mouth or to give a brow/eye lift.
 
What are the benefits?
The overall result from a course of Microcurrent facial treatments is younger looking, healthier skin. Mirocurrent also:

• Sculpts the face by lifting and toning the facial muscles
• Firms skin by boosting collagen production
• Reduces puffiness through lymphatic drainage
• Increases cellular activity which improves the health of skin

It is an excellent treatment for if you hve any upcoming events, as results can be achieved quickly.  Did we mention it’s painless?  You may feel a little sensation during your treatment but is not unpleasant and the current used is so tiny that it is completely pain free.
