As time goes by, technology is also getting more advanced, as well as facial skin care procedures that are getting more up-to-date and, of course, provide many benefits for people who always do treatment for their skin.
There are various techniques offered by beauty clinics, starting from manual techniques to using advanced tools. Of the many techniques offered, one treatment technique is called the galvanic facial.
What is a galvanic facial?
The galvanic facial is a non-surgical facial skin care procedure that makes the skin look firmer. This procedure uses a low electrical current to inject active ingredients into the skin. The electrical current used functions to stimulate skin cells, smoothing and pushing the active ingredients into the deepest layers of the skin. Besides helping hydrate the skin, a galvanic facial can also improve blood circulation, making the skin look glowing.
Types of galvanic facials
Galvanic facial has two types, namely iontophoresis, and desincrustation. In the iontophoresis type, the skin will be given a positively charged gel. Then a negative electrode will be placed near the shoulder. After that, a positively charged current is channeled into the skin to encourage the active ingredients that have been applied to penetrate the skin's deepest layers. This procedure can increase the effectiveness of all skin care products used after this step.
In the desincrustation type, this current is used to soften and unify the keratin and sebum contained in the hair follicle. This step is done so that the skin is ready to carry out the method for removing blackheads without pain. Then after this stage is complete, manual blackhead extraction will be carried out to deep clean the skin and make it smooth. This step is also effective in reducing the risk of acne breakouts.
Benefits of galvanic facials
For adult facial skin, a galvanic facial can rejuvenate the skin while reducing fine wrinkles. Meanwhile, facial skin for teenagers is useful in helping improve skin cells' health and get rid of dull skin.
One of the advantages of a galvanic facial is that you don't need to do it repeatedly because just one treatment will produce optimal results. When the current used in a galvanic facial with a negative ion charge meets the skin, which has positive ions, the active ingredients that have been applied will more easily absorb into the skin.
The good news is that this galvanic facial procedure can make your skincare products absorb better into the skin. So, are you interested in trying it, Ladies?
