A High Frequency facial involves the use of a glass electrode filled with argon gas to deliver a low level of electricity to the surface of the skin. This popular skincare technique is used to treat a variety of conditions, including breakouts, acne, enlarged pores, fine lines, wrinkles, as well as rejuvenating the condition of the scalp and nourishing hair follicles for healthier hair growth.
Due to the High Frequency facials ability to increase blood flow to the skin, they are an excellent addition to many other treatments, helping the skin to better absorb nutrients, while also eliminating bacteria.
High Frequency
High Frequency facials function by using a glass high frequency electrode. When applied to the surface of the skin, a painless, mild electrical current passes through the argon/ neon gas filled glass electrode, causing it to emit a subtle glow and buzzing noise. The electrical current has an antibacterial effect on the skin, and creates a natural thermal tissue warming.
The reaction created by the electrical current helps your blood vessels to push toxins away from the skin, circulating them throughout your body where they are naturally processed, while the cells in your skin are enriched with nutrients from the resulting blood flow, creating an increased level of collagen and elastin.
Due to the antibacterial effect and ability to push toxins out of the skin, High Frequency facials are an extremely effective treatment for the control of problematic breakouts, acne and wound healing.
High Frequency facials are recommended every 4-6 weeks. This technology can be experienced as a stand alone treatment, or included in a Skin Nova bespoke facial treatment.
