Non-Surgical Facelift: Experience the Anika Skincare Micro current Facial

Non-Surgical Facelift Micro current is known to be the most effective non-surgical method to take years off the face. Treatments take the efficacy of micro current to a new level by pairing with advanced clinical non-toxic skin care products, this combination provides dramatic results and is incredibly relaxing. Since micro current is sub-sensory it is so stress releasing, most clients fall asleep during treatments.

Micro current is a low level of electricity that mirrors the body‘s own natural electrical currents, triggering chemical reactions at a cellular level to enhance the production of natural collagen and elastin, provide circulatory benefits, and re-educate the muscles of the face.

The result is immediate firming, smoothing, and re-hydration of the skin while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Micro current lifts, sculpts and tightens, provides immediate results, and has no downtime.

How does micro current work?

Non-Surgical Facelift we first need to understand what causes our facial skin to wrinkle and sag. As we age, our muscles become accustomed to certain expressions and tend to get stuck in these positions. A great example of this is the furrow between the eyebrows that many people get. At the same time, other muscles in our face are hardly ever used, and they begin to atrophy, which leads to sagging. An example of this can often be seen around our jaw lines, chins and necks where we tend to develop sagging or loss of definition as we get older. As we age, skin cells become less active, which leads to a breakdown of collagen and elastin. By the age of 45, the upper cheek muscles may elongate by as much as half an inch, dragging the skin over the cheeks downward to form plump little pouches at the corners of the mouth. The muscles under the chin become loose and the jaw line loses its firm contour.

There are 32 different muscles of the face that are manipulated during the micro current facial treatment. The treatment lifts, smooths, tightens and tones. Probes are used to physically move the muscle into the desired position to perform muscle re-education – the process of lengthening or shortening muscles. Having muscle re-education movements performed in a series re-trains the muscles to maintain this new contour. Micro current treatment allows the muscles the necessary energy to keep their tension in this new contour.

Non-Surgical Facelift since you are re-educating the muscle tissue, it is crucial that you receive a series of treatments for results to reach their maximum potential. Once a series is completed, the results can be maintained by coming in every 3 to 4 weeks for maintenance treatments. Additionally, a series can be repeated every few years. If the full series of treatments is completed and maintenance sessions are continued on a monthly basis.

Non-Surgical Facelift The number of sessions depends on the client age and skin condition. The effects of micro current are immediate and cumulative. Clients go through a series of treatments followed by regular maintenance to keep a more youthful appearance. Each time a treatment is performed the new contour maintains its position better and longer. Typically clients will notice about 5 year reduction in facial aging.

Perfect for special occasions or a quick pick-me-up for an instant lift.

Excellent for post-surgical facelift to maintain the lift and treat blood stasis, scarring, and numbness.

Individuals with the following should not receive micro current:

Pacemaker

Pregnancy

Thrombosis

Phlebitis

Epilepsy

Cancer

If you have had a Botox or filler treatment, we recommend to wait two weeks to receive a micro current facial.  However, there is no downtime after a micro current facial.  Patients who regularly get micro current facials actually lessen the need for and frequency of Botox. If you have had dermal fillers, you need to wait 48 hours before having your microcurrent appointment.

As part of our micro current facial, you will experience the luxury of advanced clinical non toxic skincare, which is formulated by a group of scientist and cosmetic surgeon, to produce a visible difference using only the exceptional quality ingredients without any harmful chemicals or additives, chosen to give premium results to all skin types.

Anika signature facial treatment, this non-invasive facelift utilizes world-renowned European technology to help stimulate and re-educate facial muscles so they behave more youthfully.  ATP will be increased as skin is infused with cell communicating peptides, Hyaluronic acid and other advanced ingredients.  A visibly more firm, toned and contoured appearance is unveiled after one treatment. Repeated treatments are recommended for optimal results. Great befor a special event too!

 This is an excellent Botox alternative. It can also extend the life of Botox for users. Safe if you use fillers. 

  The new advanced microcurrent has 8 different waveforms, that can help all skin types (Rosacea, Acne, Aging.). It is not just for aging skin, although highly recommended for individuals looking for non-invasive integrative skincare that gives great visible results. In addition, individuals going through weight loss programs or having surgery (pre & post) micro current is extremely helpful. Micro current facials are helpful both for immediate results and long term. Making it a perfect choice for even if you have one done before a special event. 

Let’s take a look at what an anti-aging session would look like with advanced microcurrent.

• The skin would first be cleansed and exfoliated
• The circulation and blood flow would be worked on
• Lymphatic drainage would be performed to face and neck to break down and release blockages (women get especially around the lower face and jawline) and this also helps body to eliminate excess fluids-toxins. Very helpful for puffy under eyes, and people who suffer with sinus issues.
• Next step is to deeply relax overstressed muscles. Usually in these areas deeper lines form.
• Now comes the part where all the muscle on your face and neck are strengthened and shortened making them tighter.
• Deep lift is used for saggy jawline line and lower face for those who need more lifting.
• The surface of the skin for the skin tone is tightened. Improving how the texture of the skin and pores appear.
• Skin is then infused with highly advanced customized ingredients for your skin type.

I do require all appointments for series to be booked in advance. Clients can pay as they go. I do not require series payment up front. But, do require the series to be booked. Before and after photos will be taken to show the results.
