Ultrasonic Facial Treatment

An ultrasonic facial treatment uses ultrasound technology to increase the production of collagen, help firm up the skin, and encourage skin cells to cycle faster, which encourages clearer, younger-looking skin. It is generally used after another treatment, such as microdermabrasion, as it can help soothe swelling and encourage healing.

How Does It Work

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.
