facial electrotherapy
“Facial Faradic is used to tighten and tone facial muscles and therefore re-contour the shape of the face. This is done using two electrodes to create the stimulation. They can either be hand held, or some units have self-adhesive sticky electrodes that are applied to the face,” continuesAngela.
ultrasound
One of the latest techniques incorporated into the world of cosmetic therapy, ultrasound was originally used medically from recuperation and rehabilitation treatments in post-traumatic processes and pain relief in rheumatic conditions, to the diagnosis of disease and now cosmetic applications.
Ultrasonic is described as acoustic (sound) energy in the form of waves having a frequency above the human hearing range. Ultrasound therapy works by the wave permeating deeply into the skin and emitting heat, which accelerates blood circulation and can often be used for skin firming and smoothing wrinkles.
Dermalift Genesis is the first system from Silhouette International to feature both ultrasonic and phototherapy (coloured light therapy). The waves generated by the ultrasonic penetrate deeply through the epidermis and into the dermis, increasing blood flow, plumping up the skin, smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles, tightening sagging skin, contracting enlarged pores, alleviating puffy eyes and reducing the appearance of dark circles and cellulite.
Light therapy can be applied alone, or concurrently alongside the ultrasonic treatment using specifically designed ultrasonic hand pieces fitted with an array of LEDs around the outside of the ultrasonic applicator head.
Alternatively, the Exilis from BTL Aesthetics uses radio frequency, utrasound and advanced cooling in one single hand piece to help reduce wrinkles based on collagen remodelling and rejuvenates the face with supplement anti-ageing effects.
The advanced design of the hand piece allows for total control even around the eyes. The state-of-the-art dual pulse energy enables high repetition rate (100 KHz), which creates a feeling of continuous heat for the patient with the safety of pulsed mode technology. The Exilis controlled energy delivery system provokes dramatic physiological response without pain or discomfort.

From The Carlton Group, the Ultrapro Complex uses an innovative combination of high frequency, galvanic, brushing and microcurrent, vacuum and vacupulse. Highly versatile, it allows the therapist to
choose between a combination of treatments or to use each one individually. The microcurrent function offers face and body contour lifting, the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as improved circulation and skin tone. The high frequency and galvanic functions provide the tools for a high-end facial treatment, allowing more of the vital ingredients from the creams to be absorbed and utilised for enhanced results. The brushing function offers cleansing, whilst the vacuum and vacupulse offer lymphatic drainage for the face and body.
Alternatively, Crystal Clear’sMicro-Lifting gently tightens and tones the face and neck muscles while smoothing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.When combined with a preparation treatment such as Crystal Clear microdermabrasion, the results achieved are improved again, leaving the skin not only lifted but extremely smooth. The treatment can also be used as part of an intensive course or as a quick ‘pick-me-up’ facial prior to a party or a special event. It is recommended that a course of 10 treatments are taken twice weekly.
The PJS-4010 Duo High Frequency and Galvanic Facial machine from Beauty Deals Direct makes it possible to combine two functions. This professional 2-in-1 unit uses both benefits of the single high frequency and single galvanic but in one compact machine.
Alternatively, House of Famuir’s Combin8 (EQU/806) combines several traditional methods of electrotherapy, including microcurrent, galvanic, high frequency, brushing, vacuum suction and air massage, as well as a skin moisturiser reader. The unit allows for touch button selection and control to provide the perfect treatment for every client.
Using both faradic and galvanic microcurrent, the Facial Toning System from Advanced SkinTechnologies enables you to stimulate muscle fibres to achieve a toning effect and improve the surface skin texture. The current is used at an intensity to bring maximum results in minimal time with no discomfort, ensuring a beneficial long-term treatment programme.
The Facial Toning System is designed to achieve facial toning by stimulating nerve endings to improve tone in the muscle tissue.When using the galvanic microcurrent alone it improves the circulation to both the skin and the muscle cells, improving the surface skin appearance. The dual output alternates between faradic and galvanic microcurrent, achieving both facial toning and improved circulation. The probes are systematically moved from facial point to facial point, gently lifting and toning the 12 essential zones of the face.
TheCombin8 fromHOF combines traditionalmethods of electrotherapy, includingmicrocurrent, galvanic, high frequency, brushing, vacuumsuction and airmassage, plus a skin moisturiser reader.
