Micro-Current Facial and Body Treatment
A Micro-Current facelift is a non-surgical, non-invasive cosmetic technique that safely and effectively improves the health and appearance of the skin. A Micro-Current facelift uses technologies developed in the medical and physiotherapy fields to activate the skin's natural chemicals responsible for health and vitality. A Micro-Current facelift provides satisfying aesthetic results with less risk of side effects compared to a traditional facelift. The Micro-Current facelift procedure is proven safe and effective, delivering results at a fraction of the cost of traditional procedures.
A Micro-Current facelift delivers a variety of benefits to patients who wish to attain a healthier and younger looking appearance. A Micro-Current facelift can be performed to achieve the following benefits: 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 Micro-Current facelift utilizes 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 Micro-Current facelift treatments trigger the body's production of amino acids and ATP. Both of these accelerate cell repair and promote healthier cell production. The Gem Day Spa Technique is the only choice for non-surgical facial and full body rejuvenation for both Men and Women.
