Non-Invasive Facials For Acne, Rosacea & More
Treat acne, rosacea and more with Ultrasonic Facials from Essence of Beauty Ottawa - a gentle, non-invasive and safe treatment option for all skin types, including even the most sensitive skin!
It’s an exciting yet simple and powerfully effective tool to rejuvenate your skin. Ultrasound has been widely used around the world in medical applications and is now available for state of the art skincare treatments. Ultrasound uses the cutting-edge technology of very high speed, low-frequency sound waves that radiate invisible micro vibrations deep within cells, helping stimulate the skin’s natural repair mechanisms in distinct ways. But what does that mean for you? In short, it means Ultrasound is superior at cleansing, exfoliating, product infusion restoring elasticity, clearing of pigmentation problems & dramatically improves texture and smoothness…all without using chemicals, dangerous acids or other harsh abrasives.
Ultrasonic Facial Benefits
Here are just some other important benefits of Ultrasonic treatments in skin rejuvenation:
- Loosens and removes oil, dirt and cellular debris from follicles for cleaner, healthier skin
- Reduces puffiness and helps firm the skin
- Pain free, gentle and completely non-invasive approach treats the most sensitive skin
- Restores skin to a smooth, youthful glow and maintained with regular treatments
- Harmlessly exfoliates the top layer of the skin for a clearer, healthier complexion without causing redness or irritation associated with standard microdermabrasion
- Improves blood circulation and skin elasticity & increases cell regeneration
- Soothes inflammation and speeds wound healing
- Increases moisture retention & improves acneic skin and scarring conditions
- Penetrates skin care products more deeply into the skin where they are required to affect change
Let’s consider the main phases of Ultrasonic Facials
Exfoliation
The Exfoliation Phase removes 20% to 50% of the “stratum corneum” — the outer layer of the skin that we continuously shed. Water is applied and then the hand instrument, similar to a small spatula, is stroked over the skin. Ultrasonic vibrations spin the water molecules at high frequency causing cavitation — that is a brief phase change in the water molecule. Cavitation gently removes the dead surface skin cells and cleans out follicles without irritation and inflammation associated with other mechanical methods.
Infusion
This is one of the best features. Normally, large molecules cannot penetrate the skin to provide the deep medication that skin often needs to maintain health. But ultrasound makes that penetration possible — the process is called “sonophoresis.” More exciting still is because of the small molecular size of the active in the line, 302 skincare products, when used in conjunction with Ultrasonic treatments, prove an especially powerful combination for skin health and rejuvenation. Typically, a serum is penetrated into the skin to provide deep healing and protection to skin cells. Your skincare specialist will discuss with you any other products specific to your skin type that you may need. These are applied liberally to the skin and then the hand instrument is lightly stroked over your skin. The ultrasound frequency opens minute pathways to allow the product to penetrate deeply into your skin, for better, more long-lasting results.
Micro Massage Therapy
This phase normalizes the skin with a very mild electrical current — a medically proven technique to restore individual cells’ natural electrical charge. The paddle is lightly stroked over the face and throat creating a slight pulsing and warming on the face. When a cell has been damaged due to environmental causes, like overexposure to the sun or aging, the cell’s electrical current is adversely affected. As a result, waste products build up in the cell, restricting the flow of nutrients required to maintain its health. This condition makes it difficult for cells to heal from damage and to regenerate. The micro massage phase helps normalize the electric current within the cells and promotes healing, cell regeneration and resiliency. Thus, new life is literally massaged into tired, injured and aging skin.
Ultrasonic Facial Treatments
Ultrasonic Facials are particularly effective in treating the following skin conditions:- Acne
- Rosacea & Sensitive Skin
- Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Ultransonic Facials For Acne Treatment
The ultrasound vibration helps to break-up follicular deposits of oil, dirt and dead cells — a veritable breeding ground for bacteria. Ultrasonic frequency has been shown to kill bacteria and decongest the pores resulting in cleaner, healthier skin.
The Final Result:
When used regularly along with a quality skincare home program, your skin will be smoother, healthier and younger looking. Who isn’t interested in that?
Long-term results are achieved when Ultrasound treatments and quality products are regularly performed together—and while one treatment may be all that is necessary to affect a change in some, a series of treatments may be needed by others. However, you will find the results are cumulative, especially when combined with 302. Ultrasound and 302 treatment twice yearly series of treatment can reverse visible aging and restore metabolic functionality in chronologic and environmentally age skin.
As a tool for rejuvenation, ultrasound is powerful. Simple and effective. It will give you the immediate result without using harmful chemicals exfoliates and continue its effects for months after applications. Your friends will notice the difference, your skin will love the benefits and you will love the results.
