Just like the muscles in our body weaken without activity, so do the muscles in our face. As muscles weaken and shrink, skin begins to sag and structures change. Certain types of aging can appear more prominently from person to person due to several different factors such as genetics, environmental exposures, lifestyle and habits. BUT, there are now solutions to treat every single one of them.
Electricity is how the cells in our body communicate. Our brain, heart, cells are all electrically active, and microcurrent mimics these bio electrical rhythms. As you get older, your cellular charge diminishes. With microcurrent, while gentle and precise multi-channel pulses are interacting with the deepest layers of the skin, electrical pulses accelerate water intake to the skin's cells. Cue instant plumping + lifting!
Intracellular hydration is essential for cell function and energy production. So what happens when hydration levels increase? A little something called ATP increases, and ATP is our cellular currency. It’s generated, stored and consumed for healthy cell function and regeneration. As we age, cell function degenerates and we lose that currency. If we can maintain hydration at the intracellular level, we get our currency back and will not only be able to slow down the aging process, BUT we can reverse it!
Think of this as a unique lift + contour experience! It’s a 40 minute treatment where you’ll get to experience those electrical pulses doing all the work for you to strengthen those facial muscles while you lay back and relax. You’ll be walking away from your microcurrent treatment with visibly plumper skin, and may even experience slightly lifted cheeks and brows, softened lines, and more definition around your jawline!
We’ve had clients notice results for several days following their first treatment. Now if you want those results to stick around, you need to commit to a series!
With any skin program, it’s important to remember that results vary. Everyone’s starting point is different and your current skin condition, genetics, health history, lifestyle and environment are all factors in how you age and how your skin responds to treatments.
A series looks different for each client depending on the level of correction needed. For those looking to preserve and maintain, a series of treatments 1x a week for several weeks may be enough. For more intensive correction a series of treatments 2-3x a week for 5-6 weeks is a starting point.
Think back to how microcurrent is an exercise for your face. You have to keep up on those exercises to see results as we’re beginning to correct signs of aging.
This is where the experience of your esthetician comes in. At spiral, we utilize several treatment modalities and formulate treatment plans unique to each and every client when treating aging skin! The possibilities are endless.
Microcurrent corrects and preserve your skin, muscles and volume, and all with NO down-time. Think of it as a workout for your face!
It uses low level electrical currents that mimic our own body’s natural bio-electrical rhythms. While these gentle and precise multi-channel pulses from the microcurrent are interacting with the deepest layers of the skin, this is what’s happening:
These types of aging have all historically been difficult to treat without more extreme measures such as injections or surgery, but as technology has advanced, so have the non-invasive options for aging on your own terms.
