Microcurrent Facials

When you get a microcurrent facial, the facial muscles and your skin are being giving a workout that stimulates collagen and elastin production. Collagen and elastin are two essential proteins needed for the skin to remain youthful and glowing.
If you have skin with fine lines or wrinkles, sagging muscles or lost elasticity, microcurrent has the ability to restore the lost energy to your tissues and thereby turning back the hands of time in your skin.
Microcurrent facials are a safe and non-invasive procedure that will sculpt your face, accentuating cheek bones, smoothing out wrinkles and defining your jaw line. Your skin will look amazing and the results are CUMULATIVE!
Additional benefits are, lymphatic drainage, regeneration of connective tissue, tones and tightens the skin, enhanced skin elasticity, skin pigmentation is improved. YOU will see results after the first facial and a vast improvement after each one.
They must be done in a series to be the most effective.

Microcurrent Facelift and Infrared Light Therapy

Microcurrent Facelift
A microcurrent facelift is a non-surgical, non-invasive cosmetic technique that safely and effectively improves the health and appearance of the skin.
A microcurrent facelift can physically firm and tone the skin through muscle re-education. This process of a gentle ‘re-education’ of the fine facial muscles stimulates them with very small amounts of electricity. MicroCurrent impulses trigger a chemical reaction at a cellular level to activate the skin's natural chemicals responsible for health and vitality (ATP - adenosine triphosphate, a protein that is referred to as ‘the energy of life’). By reproducing the body’s own biological current we can re-establish muscle memory naturally.
A microcurrent facelift delivers a variety of benefits to patients who wish to attain a healthier and younger looking appearance, such as: improve muscle tone in face and neck, lift jowls and eyebrows, reduce and eliminate fine lines and wrinkles, improve facial circulation, skin exfoliation, lymphatic drainage, sun damage treatment, skin pigment improvement, product penetration, and much more.
A microcurrent facelift utilizes microcurrent technology which uses gentle electrical stimulation to trigger the body's natural skin enhancement chemicals at a cellular level. Clinical studies have shown that after twenty days of treatment collagen production increases by 14 percent, elastin increases by 48 percent, and blood circulation increases by 38 percent. Scientists have also found that microcurrent facelift treatments trigger the body's production of amino acids and ATP. Both of these accelerate cell repair and promote healthier cell production.
The best candidate for a microcurrent facelift is any patient who wishes to maintain or gain a youthful appearance. Younger clients can seek a microcurrent facelift to prevent some of the aesthetic effects of aging. Older clients can be rejuvenated by having a microcurrent facelift.
The microcurrent facelift procedure requires no anesthesia, no recovery time, no down time from work, and has no irritating side effects. To achieve the ultimate benefits of a microcurrent facelift, approximately twelve treatment sessions are recommended. Routine follow up treatments are performed to maintain microcurrent facelift results.

Infrared Light Therapy
Light therapy is the application of light energy to the skin for therapeutic benefits. It is a natural photo-biochemical reaction similar to the process of plant photosynethsis. NASA’s space program has proven that LED light therapy (near-infrared) promotes wound healing and human tissue growth. The energy delivered by the Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) has been shown to enhance cellular metabolism, accelerate the repair and replenishment of damaged skin cells, as well as stimulate the production of collagen - the foundation of a healthy and smooth skin. A lot of research has shown that LED Light Therapy may help to smooth skin texture, improve skin firmness and resilience, increase the lymphatic system activity, restore skin’s natural cellular activity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and superficial hyperpigmentation. The treatment is for all skin types and it is non-ablative, non-invasive, painless and there is absolutely no downtime. Patients or clients can return to their normal activity immediately after the treatment.

Don't be fooled by the hype!

Was recently reading in some industry mags and had to chuckle over some of the marketing ploys some spas are using to draw you in and make you think you are getting something "unique" and therefore justifying the ridiculous prices they charge. Let me be the one to tell you, there is a lot of hype over some newer but somewhat standard treatment methods.
Last year The Bathery got a Clarisonic face brush and an ultrasonic skin scraper. The Clarisonic is an amazing ultrasonic brush used for cleansing the skin. The skin scraper is a useful tool that gently and effectively "scrapes off" dead skin cells via "cavitation". A lot like the Sonicare ultrasonic toothbrush.
Interestingly, we have been hearing a lot about "crystal-free microdermabrasion" and had to find out what this could be.... well.... it's nothing more than ultrasonic skin scraping. And spas are charging hundreds for it!
Another spa we recently read about is offering an "ultrasonic facial". Of course this perked our interest since we are using ultrasonics at The Bathery. As it turns out, the facial is 30 minutes of nothing more than using the Clarisonic brush to cleanse your face, then exfoliate using the ultrasonic scraper, and the additional use of the new Clarisonic Opal which is for exclusive use around the eyes to penetrate eye creams deeper into thin tissue. (The Bathery may get one of these soon).
What we find so humorous in all this is that, at The Bathery, we incorporate ultrasonics into almost every facial we do. We almost always use the Clarisonic brush for cleansing, and depending on the type of facial we are doing we like to use the ultrasonic scraper for both exfoliating and penetrating of masks and creams. And we don't charge extra for it! It's standard operating procedure.
So don't be fooled by these high end fancy spas telling you that you need to spend hundreds of dollars for their special procedures. You don't. Just come to The Bathery.
