Microcurrent Facials: Everything You Need To Know
Microcurrent facials are one of my favorite treatments to perform because they offer so many benefits for the skin!
What is a microcurrent facial?
A microcurrent facial is a painless, non-invasive skincare treatment that uses micro-current electrical impulses to deeply penetrate and stimulate the muscles in the face. As an esthetician and skincare expert, I use this treatment to help tone, lift, and firm your skin while giving you a radiant glow.
During a microcurrent facial, small electric currents are sent through metal probes which are placed on the face. The intensity of the current and the length of time it is applied depend on the facial treatment being performed. Generally, microcurrent facials are very safe, comfortable, and can be used on all skin types.
How does a microcurrent facial work?
As mentioned earlier, micro-electric currents are sent through metal probes which are placed on the face. These currents stimulate and activate underlying muscles by creating contractions, helping to strengthen and tone them in the process. This helps to re-educate the muscles of the face, improving the appearance of wrinkles and sagging skin.
It's pretty much a workout for your face!
What are the benefits of a microcurrent facial?
A microcurrent facial offers many amazing benefits for the skin, such as:
Improved circulation throughout the face, which helps to plump up and hydrate the skin.
Increased collagen production, leading to smoother, firmer skin.
Reduced inflammation and redness.
Improved lymphatic drainage which helps to reduce puffiness.
Better product absorption, so your skincare products can penetrate deeper into the skin.
Stimulate elastin production, leading to more youthful-looking skin.
Removes toxins and impurities from the skin, leading to a clearer complexion.
Lifts droopiness around the eyes and jowls, creating a more defined face shape.
Overall, microcurrent facials help to improve the overall look and feel of the skin by helping it to appear healthier, more youthful, and more vibrant.
Are microcurrent facials safe?
Yes! Microcurrent facials are considered to be very safe and can be used on all skin types. The mild electrical current does not cause any damage or discomfort - in fact, it feels quite relaxing!
At Kim Gallo Esthetics, your comfort and safety is our top priority. We use only the best quality microcurrent technology and make sure our clients are comfortable throughout the entire treatment.
While microcurrent facials are considered very safe, there are some people who should not have this treatment. These include pregnant women, people with pacemakers, metal implants, and those who are prone to seizures.
Cost of microcurrent facials
At Kim Gallo Esthetics, we offer microcurrent facials as part of our regular menu of treatments. Our pricing for microcurrent facials range from $275 - $350 depending on the length and complexity of the treatment.
For best results, we recommend receiving a treatment about every four weeks. This will help to maximize the benefits and long-term results, as well as giving you healthier, younger-looking skin.
Professional vs. at-home
At Kim Gallo Esthetics, we only use professional microcurrent devices for our facials. These machines are highly advanced and specifically designed to deliver a precise amount of current in order to get the best results.
At-home microcurrent devices are not as powerful or precise as their professional counterparts. They may be cheaper, but they are not as effective and can even be dangerous if used improperly. It's also important to remember that professional microcurrent treatments will always be more effective than at-home devices.
