Coolifting

September 9, 2020 By admin

This is a facial modality (add on). Looking for a standalone Coolifting treatment?

The Coolifting dispenser uses a cool flow of gas (carbon dioxide) to deliver a proprietary solution of hyaluronic acid and other cosmetic ingredients. Coolifting takes advantage of the technology that allows for the delivery of a hydrating serum using CO2 gas. This translates into increased oxygenation and deeper delivery of a range of serums to improve the overall appearance of the skin.

Benefits

Coolifting delivers superior skin hydration, increased luminosity, and improvement in fine lines, skin tone, and firmness. The combination of carbon dioxide and specially formulated serums enhances
microcirculation and lifts and tightens the skin.

Coolifting. Give your skin what it’s thirsting for!

The Power of High-Frequency Facials: A Timeless Solution for Beautiful Skin

As a professional aesthetician, I understand the importance of staying up-to-date with the latest skincare trends and treatments. One such treatment that has been gaining popularity in recent years is the use if high-frequency. Let’s delve deeper into the incredible benefits of high-frequency treatments and how they can transform your skin, not only by targeting breakouts and blemishes but also by promoting a youthful, radiant complexion.

A Burst of Energy for Your Skin

High-frequency treatments utilize a special device that emits a gentle electrical current through a glass electrode, producing a high-frequency oscillation of the skin’s surface. This process generates a multitude of benefits that can leave your skin looking and feeling its best.

Battling Breakouts and Blemishes

One of the primary reasons clients seek high-frequency facials is their remarkable ability to combat breakouts and blemishes. The treatment effectively kills bacteria lurking beneath the skin’s surface, the root cause of many acne issues. By zapping these pesky bacteria, high-frequency treatments can dramatically reduce inflammation and redness, providing much-needed relief for those dealing with acne-prone skin.

The Age-Defying Secret

What sets high-frequency treatments apart from many other skincare solutions is their ability to stimulate collagen production. Collagen, often referred to as the “fountain of youth,” is responsible for maintaining the skin’s elasticity and firmness. As we age, our collagen production naturally decreases, leading to wrinkles and sagging skin. However, high-frequency facials come to the rescue by promoting collagen production, which can diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in a more youthful complexion.

Radiant and Glowing Skin

In addition to its acne-fighting and age-defying benefits, high-frequency treatments also boost circulation in the skin. Improved blood flow means that oxygen and nutrients are delivered more efficiently to your skin cells, promoting a healthy, radiant glow. This revitalization can leave you looking refreshed and rejuvenated after just one session.

Safe and Non-Invasive

What’s even more appealing about high-frequency facials is that they are non-invasive and safe for most skin types. The treatment is typically painless, with only a mild tingling sensation, making it suitable for those with sensitive skin or low pain tolerance.

Summary

Incorporating high-frequency facials into your skincare routine can be a game-changer. Not only can it effectively target breakouts and blemishes, but it can also turn back the clock by stimulating collagen production for a more youthful appearance. Furthermore, the boost in circulation will leave your skin looking radiant and refreshed. So, whether you’re battling acne, looking to maintain your youthful glow, or simply seeking an effective and non-invasive skincare solution, high-frequency facials might just be the answer you’ve been searching for. Consult with a professional aesthetician to see how this remarkable treatment can benefit your unique skin needs and embark on the journey to beautiful, ageless skin today.

Active Enzymes

May 5, 2020 By admin

Active Enzyme

Ever wondered how to get that super-smooth, radiant complexion you see in magazines? One of the secrets might just be proteolytic enzymes. You’ve probably heard about “active enzymes” as a facial add-on, but what does that actually mean? Let’s break it down.

What’s the Buzz About Enzymes?

Think of enzymes as tiny workers that perform specific tasks. In this case, they’re protein-breakers, and the action of breaking down proteins is called proteolytic action. When applied to your skin, these enzymes gently dissolve the keratin protein that holds dead skin cells together.

(Above: Enzyme (Red): This represents the protease, like papain or bromelain, in our skincare context. Substrate (Yellow): This represents the keratin protein on the surface of your skin. Enzyme/Substrate Complex: This shows the enzyme and keratin bound together, illustrating the crucial step where the enzyme’s active site interacts with the substrate. Enzyme/Products Complex: This depicts the stage where the enzyme has worked on the substrate, breaking it down into products (smaller pieces). Products (Yellow and Pink): These are the breakdown products of keratin, essentially the dead skin cells that are being released. Active Release Enzyme: This shows the enzyme returning to its original state, ready to bind with another keratin molecule.)

Why is That a Good Thing?

Our skin naturally sheds dead cells, but sometimes, they stick around, making our complexion look dull and rough. Proteolytic enzymes act like gentle exfoliators, removing this buildup without the harsh scrubbing of traditional methods. This leads to:

  • Smoother Skin: You’ll notice a significant improvement in skin texture.
  • Brighter Complexion: Removing dead cells reveals fresh, glowing skin underneath.
  • Improved Product Absorption: With dead cells out of the way, your serums and moisturizers can penetrate deeper and work more effectively.
  • Gentle Exfoliation: Ideal for sensitive skin that can’t tolerate harsh scrubs.

A Touch of Tech for the Curious:

For those who want to dive a little deeper, here’s the science behind the magic: Proteases, the enzymes responsible for proteolytic action, are classified based on their catalytic mechanism. Common examples used in skincare include papain (from papayas) and bromelain (from pineapples). These cysteine proteases target peptide bonds within keratin, effectively breaking down the protein matrix of the stratum corneum (the outermost layer of your skin). This selective breakdown is what makes enzyme peels gentler than chemical peels, which often target a wider range of skin components.

Adding Enzymes to Your Facial:

Adding an enzyme treatment to your facial is a simple way to boost your results. You might feel a slight tingling sensation while masked up, but it’s generally very comfortable.

Is it Right for You?

Enzyme facials are generally suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin. However, if you have any active skin conditions, it’s always best to first consult with me first, or your dermatologist.

The Takeaway:

Proteolytic power means a gentle, effective way to reveal your skin’s natural radiance. The next time you’re considering a facial, ask about adding an enzyme treatment. Your skin will thank you!

DermaFile

dermafile

Dermafile

Dermafile is a unique skin treatment that uses a small handheld device with tiny needles to gently exfoliate the skin. This process helps to remove dead cells, reveal brighter skin, and improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation.

In the hands of a qualified aesthetician, Dermafile is a safe and effective treatment that can be performed on all skin types. It is also a relatively painless procedure, with most people experiencing no downtime. Results are typically visible immediately, but for best results, a series of treatments is recommended.

There are a number of other skin treatments available that may be similar to dermafile. These include microdermabrasion, chemical peels, and laser skin resurfacing. However, dermafile is a unique treatment that offers a number of advantages over these other options.

Dermafile is a more gentle treatment than microdermabrasion or chemical peels. This means that it is less likely to cause redness, irritation, or other side effects. Dermafile is also a more effective treatment for acne scars and hyperpigmentation.

Laser skin resurfacing is a more aggressive treatment than dermafile. This means that it is more likely to cause redness, irritation, and other side effects. Laser skin resurfacing is also a more expensive treatment than dermafile.

Overall, dermafile is a safe, effective, and affordable skin treatment that offers a number of advantages over other similar treatments. If you are looking for a way to improve the appearance of your skin, dermafile is a great option.

Here are some of the benefits of dermafile:

  • It is a safe and effective treatment.
  • It is a relatively painless procedure.
  • It has no downtime.
  • It is suitable for all skin types.
  • It can be used to treat a variety of skin conditions, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation.
  • It is a more gentle treatment than microdermabrasion or chemical peels.
  • It is a more effective treatment for acne scars and hyperpigmentation.
  • It is a more affordable treatment than laser skin resurfacing.

Here are some of the downsides of dermafile:

  • Redness and irritation are possible side effects.
  • Infection is a rare risk.
  • Scarring is a rare risk.
  • Sensitivity to sunlight is a possible side effect.

It is important to talk with your aesthetician to see if dermafile is right for you.

Microcurrent

May 5, 2020 By admin

Microcurrent

Microcurrent is a cosmetic treatment that utilizes low-level electrical currents to stimulate the muscles and tissues of the face and body. It is a non-invasive procedure that aims to improve muscle tone, tighten the skin, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

During a microcurrent treatment, I use a device that emits gentle electrical currents. The currents are very low in intensity and measured in microamperes (hence the name microcurrent). The low-level currents enhance blood circulation, stimulate collagen production, and improve the overall health and vitality of the skin. The procedure is generally painless and may cause a mild tingling or warming sensation on the skin.

Top 5 reasons to include the Microcurrent modality in your next facial:

  1. Non-surgical alternative: Microcurrent treatment offers a non-surgical alternative to more invasive procedures like facelifts. It allows individuals to potentially achieve noticeable improvements in muscle tone and skin appearance without the need for incisions, anesthesia, or significant downtime. This aspect appeals to those who prefer non-invasive options or want to avoid the risks and recovery associated with surgery.
  2. Muscle retraining: Microcurrent therapy works by stimulating and re-educating facial muscles. This process involves sending low-level electrical currents that mimic the body’s natural electrical signals. It’s fascinating to think that gentle electrical currents can potentially enhance muscle tone and definition, leading to a more lifted and sculpted appearance.
  3. Immediate results: While the long-term effects of microcurrent treatments may require multiple sessions, some individuals report noticing immediate improvements in their skin’s appearance after a single treatment. The stimulation of muscles and increased blood circulation can lead to temporary tightening and firming of the skin, providing an instant boost and radiance.
  4. Relaxing experience: Microcurrent treatments typically involve gentle massaging and the application of electrical currents, which can create a relaxing and soothing experience. Many people find the procedure enjoyable and even liken it to a spa-like treatment. The combination of muscle stimulation and relaxation makes it a unique and pleasurable aesthetic experience.
  5. Personalization and customization: Microcurrent treatments can be tailored to individual needs and concerns. A skilled aesthetician can adjust the intensity and frequency of the electrical currents based on specific areas of focus or desired outcomes. This customization allows for a personalized treatment plan, ensuring that each individual’s unique needs are addressed.

It’s important to remember that experiences and results may vary from person to person. It’s advisable to consult with a qualified aesthetician to determine if microcurrent therapy is suitable for you and to manage expectations accordingly. Best results with series of treatments.
