Microcurrent & LED Facial | The 5 Minute Facelift
Anti-aging microcurrent facials are becoming increasingly popular as a way to reduce the signs of aging. They use low-level electrical current to stimulate the facial muscles, helping to lift and tone the skin.
This type of facial can help immediately target forehead lines and wrinkles, as well as the jowl lines around the mouth. It can also help to tighten, tone and define the jaw line while lifting tired eyes, cheeks and eyebrows. The results are often long lasting, with regular treatments helping to maintain a youthful appearance.
With the latest facial technology, you can now combine professional skin care products and serums that target anti-aging, tone, tighten, and give that “youthful glow”. This facial combines the best of both worlds – professional skin care products and serums – to give you the best possible results.
This is a POWERHOUSE Facial!
And yes, we sell packages!
Micro-Current, LED, And The Science to Back It Up
Microcurrent facials utilize low-level electrical currents that mimic your body’s natural ionic flow to sculpt and tone facial muscles. This results in an improved facial contour with tightened and lifted skin. In addition, most users say they barely notice when the device is on — the microcurrent waves are so frequent that they become virtually unnoticeable, resulting in a pain-free facial treatment that actually works.
As we age, our skin’s natural ability to manufacture these protein fibers reduces, giving way to the multiple signs of aging. ATP’s increased production of proteins and amino acids during facial stimulation helps to energize and tone facial muscles over time—just like how exercise energizes and strengthens the muscles of our body. Unlike anywhere else on the body, the facial muscles are directly connected to the skin, so the result of energizing the muscle is often improved, providing a smooth and lifted appearance.
What is Microcurrent & ATP?
Microcurrent is capable of facial stimulation, sending soft, gentle waves through the skin and down to the facial muscles. This gentle wave of energy is nearly identical to your body’s natural ionic flow and has been shown to increase ATP (bodies cellular energy) concentration up to 400%, while simultaneously stimulating protein synthesis and promoting amino acid transport2.

Adenosine Triphosphate, also known as ATP, is a vital energy molecule in all life forms. These molecules are those providing the energy for muscle contractions and nerve transmissions. ATP is our cells’ primary energy fuel source and is needed for muscle contraction and relaxation. It also encourages the production of essential structural proteins, such as collagen, which acts like scaffolding to support the skin’s structure, and elastin, which provides the recoil necessary for the skin to snap back into place.
Our bodies naturally produce and store ATP daily. As a result, our bodies have an overstock of ATP, which helps our devices get the results you have in mind. Therefore, we can all thank this little molecule for helping us attain and maintain our dream results.
How Long Do The Results Last? And How Often Should I Get Treatments?
Microcurrent facials have immediate results and can last anywhere between 3-6 weeks.
When you really want to see dramatic long lasting changes, a series of treatments over a few months is best. The effects will last much longer than a one time session when a series is applied. Think of working out at the gym, you can’t go to the gym one time and keep up that perfect shape if you have a lot of transformation goals. You must train your muscles to be stronger and more fit. Your facial muscles work the same way! After a series has been completed, usually a microcurrent facial is only needed every now and then for upkeep.
Keeping a healthy lifestyle can be the make or break in how long the effects will last. Smoking, drinking, eating unhealthy foods, and lack of exercise will only inhibit these long term goals from being achieved.
And for those of you that use Botox, or other similar products, be aware that microcurrent will lessen the effects of these anti-wrinkle injections! It stimulates the muscles and will release the effects of the Botox much faster than normal.
With that said, we would love to see you on our schedule for one of these facials. It is one of our favorites!
