Microcurrent is low level current that mimics the body's natural electrical currents, triggering chemical reactions at a cellular level to enhance the production of natural collagen and elastin and provide circulatory benefits. The result is immediate, firming, smoothing, and re-hydration of the skin while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Clinicians can sculpt or contour the face and body with microcurrent. This procedure is preventative for younger clients and rejuvenating for mature clients. It is a non-invasive treatment that gives you the option for anti-aging without the recover and expense of surgeries and other aggressive treatments.
Recent microcurrent studies performed at the University of Washington School of Medicine, indicate a 14% increase in the production of natural collagen, a 48% increase in natural elastin production, and a 38% increase in blood circulation over the course of 20 days.
Microcurrent has been used successfully in the medical field for over 20 years. In more recent years, microcurrent has been recognized as a valuable alternative treatment for the aesthetics profession to offer their clients. Microcurrent is safely and effectively used for the following:
