Microcurrent Treatment

​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. 

There are 32 different muscles of the face that are manipulated during the microcurrent facial treatment. The treatment lifts, smoothes, tightens and tones. Probes are used 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.

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. Once a series is completed, the results can be maintained by by coming in every 4-8 weeks for maintenance treatments. 

​The following are general and approximate guidelines for frequency of treatment:

• 20 – 30 years old: Preventative, to slow down the aging process
• 30 – 35 years old: Initial series of 6, once per week                  (Maintenance every 6-8 weeks)
• 35 – 40 years old: Initial series of 8-10, once to twice per week
  (Maintenance every 6-8 weeks)
• 40 – 50 years old: Initial series of 10-12, once to twice per week
  (Maintenance every 4-6 weeks)
• 50 – 60 years old: Initial series of 12-15, once to twice per week
  (Maintenance every 4-6 weeks)
• 60 plus years old: Initial series of 15-18, ideally twice per week
  (Maintenance every 4 weeks)
  

This is a perfect treatment for special occasions or a quick pick-me-up for an instant lift lasting up to two days.

Excellent for post surgical facelift to maintain the lift and treat blood stasis, scarring, and numbness.
