When the best skin care products are used in conjunction with rejuvenating microcurrent facial treatments, the results are quite dramatic.
Luxury spas in New York City, like Joanna Vargas Salon, Skin Care Sanctuary include this advanced face care in their repertoire of holistic facials because it is the most effective for defying age. This spa treatment is also the least invasive approach to a flawless complexion.
How does microcurrent work?
The low level microcurrent stimulation triggers the production of adenosine triphosphate on a cellular level. ATP is the substance naturally synthesized in the skins cells, which drives many biological functions including collagen and elastin production.
Microcurrent facials, came about from the discovery that they helped to improve the condition of many patients suffering from facial paralyses due to Bells Palsy. The doctor noticed that his patients looked younger after treatments.
The micro-electric current, which mirrors the bodys own natural electrical current, has been shown to increase blood circulation and elastin and collagen production. Collagen and Elastin are essential for youthful and glowing skin. When the skins processes are activated, by the microcurrent, epidermal cells function most optimally and nutrients are more readily absorbed. In this way fine lines and wrinkles melt away with each facial that you get.
How does microcurrent deliver age-reversing hydration?
This effective facial hydrates and softens the epidermis and helps absorb nourishing serums to your skin. Keep in mind, while serums are not meant as an alternative to daily moisturizers, they have been found to increase the effectiveness of them when used together with microcurrent spa treatments.
Many moisturizers on the market have the effect of softening the surface of the skin and protecting the skin from external forces, but have little or no effect on the dermal processes important to skin cell regeneration and structural support. This is because the molecules in many anti-aging skin care products and moisturizers are too large to permeate deeply into the tissue of the dermis. Microcurrent stimulates and opens the pores to receive hydration that prevents transepidermal water loss (TEWL), so that moisturizing has greater impact and the onset of maturing skin is delayed.
Microcurrrent facials can be custom fitted to address various skin issues from aged skin to acne prevention. Aestheticians will select the top skin care lines with hyaluronic acid, enzymes, and anti-aging botanicals to treat your specific skin type. Consult your dermatologist or skincare specialist in choosing the personalized facial that suits your needs.
The face-firming effects of microcurrent spa treatments are best achieved when done in a series as it helps get rid of wrinkles naturally and best of all the rejuvenating effects are cumulative. After a few treatments, there will be a marked softening of fine lines and a more plump, healthy glow. There are microcurrent devices on the market for home use, but they are not believed to be a effective as professional facials performed by experienced aestheticians, who know how to vary the machines resistance as needed.
Whether you are trying to find a solution to a skin problem or just a means of supporting your best natural skin care regime, this non-invasive procedure will be the right fit.
