What is microcurrent?
Microcurrent therapy is the most talked about non-invasive solution to look and feel younger! Microcurrent treatments are used today in the anti-aging industry by award winning spas.
In fact, Skin Care by Christina is now one of only a few spas in all of Orange County certified to offer the professional Neurotris Microcurrent Treatment -- the number-one device on the market designed for anti-aging.
If you are not ready for surgical procedures because of time, finances, or medical limitations, microcurrent is your number one option to improve and return a youthful appearance. Bioelectrical signatures are used to re-train facial muscles which are attached to the skin of the face. NeurotriS Microcurrent Treatments use the latest advancements in NANO Technology to offer clients a non-invasive solution for facial sculpting. As Jennifer Aniston told InStyle Magazine, microcurrent facials are “like a little workout for your face. If you don’t work out, eventually everything drops.” The experience is wonderfully relaxing and euphoric, causes no pain, swelling or downtime.
How Does Microcurrent Work?
Scientists have found that microcurrent treatments trigger the body’s production of amino acids and adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which accelerate cell repair and promote healthier cell production, making it a highly healing, restorative and regenerative treatment. Think of it as a fitness routine for your facial muscles. The skin of the face and neck are the only area of the body where skin is directly attached to muscles. As the muscles lengthen or contract with age, signs of aging will appear here first. Microcurrent facials are considered a form of muscular re-education for the face. Thirty-two different facial muscles are manipulated during a microcurrent facial.
To perform the muscular re-education, probes are placed on the skin and used to physically move the muscles into the desired position. The treatment affords the muscles the necessary energy to keep tension in their new improved position. The electrical signals reach deep into the facial muscles and surrounding tissues to promote circulation, collagen production, cellular repair and regeneration. Microcurrent facials are not only designed to promote the production of collagen but also to condition the muscles in our face that atrophies with age. As the muscles are re-educated and move to the proper location, the skin moves with them, diminishing fine lines and wrinkles.
Often referred to as "non-surgical" face lift, microcurrent facial, or the "Madonna Facial." No matter what it is called, the results are amazing and speak for themselves.
