What Is Ultrasonic Facial Treatment?

During an ultrasonic facial, high level sound wave technology is used to penetrate deep below the surface of the skin promoting cellular renewal and repair, toning muscles, increasing blood circulation, encouraging lymphatic drainage, combating puffiness and swelling and improving skin care product penetration. Ultrasound may be used on most parts of the body, including the face, neck, arms, breasts, stomach, waist, hips, buttocks, and legs and can now be used in the comfort of your own home.

How Does It Work?

The application of ultrasonic frequency is commonly used by salon professionals to increase cellular turnover, plump up and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, tighten sagging skin, relieve puffy eyes, reduce the appearance of cellulite, improve acne, tighten enlarged pores, fade dark eye circles, freckles and old age spots and even repair scar damage. The process is safe, painless and gentle and is can even be used by sensitive skin types such as those with Rosacea.

The sound waves produced by the ultrasound facial machine resonate well above our hearing level and move too quickly for our nerve endings to register. The intensive rejuvenating cyclic sound waves penetrate below the skin reaching the dermis and will not cause the user any discomfort or unusual side effects.

Some ultrasonic devices and machines offer the convenience of different treatment modes. Generally, the lower the ultrasonic frequency rate setting, the deeper the sound waves will penetrate below the skin. Thus, the 1MHz mode is designed for general body treatment where tissues and muscles are thicker. The 3MHz mode is designed for general facial treatment where tissues and muscles are much thinner. The 5Mhz mode is appropriate for treatment around the most delicate area - the eyes.

In order to optimize the penetration of the cyclical sound waves produced by the ultrasonic facial massager, a conductive gel must be used. Besides encouraging improved conductivity, the gel also penetrates deep into the skin. As such, many estheticians use quality optimized gels that containskin-firming ingredients.

When ultrasound enters the body it reacts in various ways. It is absorbed by muscle, tendons and bone. Harder surfaces like bone will absorb and reflect ultrasound energy. All of these play a role in the eventual total temperature rise in the surrounding tissue. This in turn dramatically increases needed oxygen to the cells and aids in the removal of waste products. This antibacterial cleansing action also helps prevent the onset of acne and blemishes and the skin is left feeling instantly energized, rosy, firm, refreshed and noticeably softer - even after just one application!

Once only found in salons, spas, medical offices, ultrasonic facial technology is now within the reach of the home consumer in the form of handheld ultrasonic skin care devices. When used according to their recommended treatment guidelines, these high-tech tools are equally effective in addressing a range of skin care concerns from acne to wrinkles and may be used to replace or supplement spa visits, or in conjunction with post-procedure regimens to enhance and prolong results.

What Type of Conductive Gel Should I Use During Treatment?

It is critical that a water soluble gel be used during treatment because it has been found to be the best conductor of ultrasonic sound waves. Plain water, oil or any oil-based creams or lotions do not contain conductive ionic properties and are not compatible during ultrasonic skin care treatment. Damage may occur to your ultrasonic treatment head if applied to the skin without using the correct conductive medium, or any conductive medium at all.

Beperfect Beauty Team have tested many different types of conductive gels designed for use during the consmetic ultrasonic facial and found that they were either too stringy or clumpy, dried up much too quickly and became sticky, or caused undesirable drag and friction on the skin. To address these multiple issues,. We suggest the gel which is organic, water-soluble, 100% paraban-free and contains beneficial ingredients that improve overall skin tone, rehydrate, restore elasticity, and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

What Are The Benefits Of Ultrasonic Facial Treatment?

Ultrasonic facials offer a safe and gentle alternative to dramatic plastic surgery procedures, laser resurfacing, chemical peels, Collagen and Botox injections and other invasive skin rejuvenation treatments.

Results can vary by individual and skin type, are gradual, and will not just occur over night. Although Ultrasonic treatment has been shown to produce an immediate and temporary firming effect, continued daily application will provide more cumulative long-term, lasting results.

How can  Galvanic Facial Machine Help Your Skin?

Reducing Fine Lines & Wrinkles?

Cosmetics nourishment should permeate into the skin to have a revitalizing effect, however most of the nourishment cannot be absorbed by your skin due to the different skin layers.

Fortunately, the galvanic facial massager helps to permeate cosmetic ingredients (ingredients of an anti wrinkle lotion) into the skin by using galvanic ion.

Could this Reduce “sagging eyes” or “black eye rim”?

Galvanic facial massager accelerates blood and lymph circulation and carry excessive fluid away. The excessive cellulite can be dissolved. Thus, sagging eyes and black eye-rim could be reduced with this machine

How does Galvanic Facial Therapy Works?

You have to gently rub or press the galvanic machine over your face so it gives a steady, direct galvanic current of positive and negative ions through your skin.

Galvanic facial is based on the basic laws of electricity, “like repels, opposites attract. The two forces ( + positive and – negative) pull together like a magnet and push the product in to the deeper layers of the skin (the dermis).

The capacity of your skin absorption is increased by the galvanic ion and this improves the penetration of nutrition products (anti wrinkle lotion) through your skin.

In addition, skin will be completely cleansed as negative ions force all the dirt and debris held within your pores to the surface. At the same time the positive ions gives you a fresh look and plumps the skin, banishing wrinkles 

Galvanic Facial at Home:  Warnings

• Follow the normal structure of your bones while using the machine.
• The area around the eyes should be avoided.
• Be careful not to pull your skin while using the machine.

• Now, the excess gel needs to be wiped out with a wet towel.
• Follow up with the moisturizer.

The Science Behind Phototherapy

Our skin has the ability to absorb LED light and use it as a source of energy to stimulate cellular regeneration. LED light therapy, first researched by NASA for use in the U.S. Space Program, can reverse and control the visible signs of aging and help you look years younger without harsh chemical treatments or invasive surgical procedures. Tightening of skin, disappearing blemishes, smoothing of wrinkles and rough spots, softening of redness, and shrinking of pore size can be achieved with this natural light treatment.

Why Does Light Therapy Work?

Red light easily penetrates the skin, boosts circulation and brings more blood and nutrients to the area. It also stimulates vital collagen and elastin production. Collagen helps plump the skin, while elastin firms the skin.

The red light is energizing and repairing damaged cells, stimulating collagen and elastin and giving the skin back its youthful look. Developed by NASA to heal wounds, red light therapy was found to promote and speed up skin regeneration.

Cells in the skin absorb wavelengths between 590 and 950 nanometers. Our cells convert this light energy into “fuel” that is used to increase cellular metabolism. Research by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has shown that light therapy increases cellular growth up to 200%.

While the NASA study focused on healing injuries, the effect of light therapy on skin is exactly the same. The increased cellular activity stimulates formation of new collagen and elastin — the building blocks of healthy skin. This is what makes red light therapy so effective in removing scars and general skin rejuvenating.

Different Wavelengths, Different Solutions

Yellow/Amber Light Therapy:

Amber light therapy can be referred to as yellow or orange light therapy. It encompasses the range of wavelengths from 570 nm to 600 nm.

Amber light has quite a shallow skin penetration but is effective in the treatment of skin issues involving redness, such as spider veins. Though it is not typically used for tissue healing or collagen/elastin production, where it excels is in the treatment of problems such as sun damage. It is often considered to be an ideal therapy for sensitive skin, as its therapy is calming and soothing.

Amber light therapy is frequently recommended as a drug free alternative treatment for skin redness and flushing, irritation, rosacea, UV radiation damage, and reducing the appearance of the tiny blood vessels on the nose and face. It helps to flush waste from the skin, boost lymphatic flow, and increase cellular growth.

Red Light Therapy:

Visible red light is capable of penetrating the skin to a depth of about 8 to 10 mm. Once absorbed, the light energy is converted to cellular energy, stimulating the body’s natural processes on a cellular level:

• Increased circulation and the formation of new capillaries. 
• Increased lymph system activity.
• Increased production of collagen and fibroblasts. 
• Increased release of ATP, or raw cellular energy. 
• Increased phagocytosis, or cellular clean up.
• Tissue granulation stimulated.
• Inflammation reduced. 

All of these things work together to produce many benefits for you in the areas of anti-aging ,  the healing of wounds and injuries, and the relief of pain, as we’ll see below. But no matter what the application, red and infrared light therapy share the same benefits overall.

Blue Light Therapy

Blue light is right next to UV light on the electromagnetic spectrum, and science has found that it retains some of the antibacterial properties of UV light, but without the risks associated with UV overexposure. Blue light was found to kill acne bacteria, and was FDA approved for that purpose around 2002.

Green Light Therapy:

Green light therapy typically falls in the wavelength range of 515 nm to 520 nm and is most frequently used for skin treatments and anti-aging therapies, such as an LED photofacial.

The rejuvenating benefits of green light therapy can help to improve pigmentation issues that have come from causes such as sun damage. This treatment can help to fade the appearance of freckles, as well as age spots, sun spots, reddish and brown patches, and liver spots. Other forms of hyper pigmentation and melanin problems that are caused by age can also be lightened through the use of light in these wavelengths.

Green light affects the melanocytes (the cells that produce the melanin, which is the pigmentation in the bottom layer of the epidermis), reducing its production. Over time, spots simply fade away for a younger looking, rejuvenated, and more even complexion.
