*Is done with a high frequency machine. It works by producing a gentle alternating electrical current which then passes through a glass electrode upon contact with the skin. In treating aging skin, high frequency current firms and tones by causing an immediate circulation rush to the skin in addition to subtle tissue warming. I use High Frequency with almost every client! there are CONTRAINDICATIONS:


IMPLANTED ELECTRONIC DEVICES-PACEMAKERS, INTERNAL DEFIBRILLATORS AND OTHER BODY/WORN IMPLATED ELECTRICAL DEVICES.


PREGNANT WOMAN


HEART CONDITIONS

EPILESPY OR SEIZURE DISORDERS


METAL IMPLANTS OR BRACES


CANCER


ASTHMA


YOU MUST ALWAYS LET YOUR ESTHETICAIN KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY HEALTH PROBLEMS!!!



THERE ARE TWO ELECTRODES USED WITH THIS PRACTICE:


ARGON:-(VIOLET GLOW) AND NEON (ORANGE-RED GLOW)

which ionize electrical current to produce ozone, heat, and micro-vibrations

at the skin surface.


ARGON GAS ELECTRODE: Best for oily skin destroys bacteria great after

extractions on all skin types.


REDUCES INFLAMMATION: Calms active breakouts, shrinks pimples, and dials down redness. (It has been known to be used after waxing of the face)


RGLATES OIL: (Helps balance excessive sebum (oil) production of the pores.



NEON GAS ELECTRODE (ORANGE/RED GLOW)


Best for dry, mature, aging, or tired skin.


What it does:


Boost Circulation: provides mild thermal/infrared heat that drives blood flow to the surface.


Supports Anti Aging:


Stimulates cell turnover and encourages modes collagen & elastin production to soften fine lines and firm the skin.


Improves Radiance: Revitalizes dull skin and enhances the absorption of post-treatment hydrating serums.
