Quick Answer

What Is a Microcurrent Facial?

If you are looking for the fountain of youth and a natural facelift treatment, this is it. Microcurrent facials emit a very low-voltage current which mirrors your own body's electrical currents, repairing damaged skin at a cellular level by stimulating collagen and elastin production.

Frequently dubbed the "non-surgical facelift" or the "Madonna facelift," it is a vital addition for anyone experiencing the visible signs of aging.

Every part of our machine is completely sourced and made right here in the States. No parts were sourced overseas, which ensures a much higher and more consistent standard.

Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

If your question isn't answered here, bring it to your appointment.

Is microcurrent painful?

No. The current is very low-voltage and mirrors your body's own electrical signals. Most clients find it relaxing, and it stimulates the release of endorphins, so you leave feeling as good as you look.

How many treatments do I need?

A series of 10 is essential for maximum results, and clinical studies point to 10 to 12 sessions for lasting benefits. Even one session produces a visible lift, but the effects are cumulative.

How long do the results last?

Results are immediate, peak around the third day, and typically last three to six weeks. Because the benefits accumulate, regular sessions give sustained improvement over the long term.

What machine do you use?

The Neurotris 3800, the only FDA-approved microcurrent machine in the United States. Every part is sourced and made in the States, which ensures a higher and more consistent standard.

Is it really like a facelift?

It is often called the non-surgical facelift or the Madonna facelift. It lifts and tones by re-educating the facial muscles rather than cutting anything, so there is no surgery and no downtime.

Who should not have microcurrent?

Microcurrent is not suitable if you have a pacemaker, epilepsy, cancer, thrombosis or phlebitis, are pregnant, have metal implants in the treatment area, or are undergoing treatment for a medical condition. Consult your physician if you have any concerns.

What is the difference between the two facials?

The Microcurrent Facial combines exfoliation, microcurrent lifting and nano-channeling. The Celebrity Microlift adds microneedling on top for plumping and collagen production, which is why it runs 90 minutes.

Do I need to change my skincare at home?

If you invest in a series we will recommend a specific home care routine to go with it. Your esthetician acts as your skin fitness coach, because you can't go to the gym once and expect great results.
