Reverse Time with the Professionals and at Home: The Microcurrent Facial

At Shutters on the Beach‘s ONE Spa and Hotel Casa del Mar‘s Sea Wellness Spa, we offer the best in facial services. One of our tried and true facials, a favorite of many, is ONE Spa’s Microcurrent facial. The treatment includes an exfoliation, application of the top quality Biotherapeutic skincare line’s products to the skin, and the usage of the Microcurrent machine. This facial offers an abundance of benefits for all skin types, offered as both a 60- or 90-minute service. First off, let’s talk about the science behind it all.

Microcurrent therapy is extremely low-level pulsating currents of electricity. Our bodies naturally have electrical frequencies that can be disrupted by illness, injury, and aging over time. Microcurrent therapy restores the natural and normal frequencies within cells, reducing inflammation and increasing function and protein synthesis, an essential component of tissue repair. The addition of Microcurrent increases the production of ATP (or the energy that fuels all functions of the body), protein synthesis, oxygenation, ion exchange, absorption of nutrients, elimination of waste products, and neutralizes the oscillating polarity of deficient cells. Homeostasis is restored. By normalizing cell activity, inflammation is reduced while collagen-producing cells are increased. In other words, it restores metabolism in our skin cells, restoring and regenerating in a healthy and natural way.

So what does this all mean for your skin? After just one facial, you will see visible results. With repeated use, the results will become even more profound and longer lasting. Results include the following:

• Improves skin tone, firmness and elasticity, and stimulates cell renewal
• Reduces appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Adds intense hydration
• Leaves skin revitalized and rejuvenated
• Improved muscle tone in face & neck
• Benefits continue to improve with subsequent treatments
• Enhances penetration of all products applied by esthetician during treatment
• Increases blood circulation and aids in lymphatic drainage

This is an especially great tool for anti-aging, however any treatment of this variety functions even better as a preventative tool for all ages. Plus, we have even better news. We know that coming in for a facial on a consistent and regular basis is not always possible with our busy schedules these days. That is why we are now helping you take the Microcurrent facial home with you. The NuFace Trinity machine is a do-it-yourself Microcurrent machine that is called the “5-minute face lift”. It is the first and only FDA-cleared, multi-solution, at-home device on the market. It has been clinically tested to prove the amazing results that can be seen, and above all, it is easy to use. So how does it work? It takes just a few simple steps:

• Start with a freshly cleansed face
• Apply the accompanying gel primer in a mask-like layer to each section as you treat it
• Glide upwards with light to medium pressure
• Keep both spheres in contact with the skin

All of the benefits included in our professional Microcurrent facial can be seen over time with the usage of the NuFace. Beyond it being incredibly user-friendly, the NuFace company has gone the extra mile by offering multiple supplemental guides. The device comes with an instructional pamphlet, NuFace has created its very own iPhone App, and many videos can be found on their website and on YouTube. Experts and celebrities alike agree – NuFace is like fitness for your face. And it works!

The NuFace Trinity is available for purchase at ONE Spa and Sea Wellness Spa.
