Microcurrents for the face: how to do it correctly

Greetings, my dear readers. I recently learned that to improve muscle tone you can do without Botox injections. With the help of a simple procedure, wrinkles will noticeably decrease and facial skin turgor will improve. Microcurrents for the face - what it is, I will tell you in detail today. I will describe the advantages, how the procedure is carried out in the salon and whether there is an analogue to professional devices for home use.

How does microcurrent therapy work?

From a certain age, the facial muscles are imbalanced. The fact is that with age, the muscles of the lower and upper third of the face spasm. As a result, we observe the phenomenon of gravitational ptosis and the appearance of horizontal wrinkles on the forehead. And the muscles of the middle third of the face, on the contrary, are in hypotonicity. As a result, the face loses its shape. Microcurrent therapy has been successfully used to stimulate and relax facial muscles.

This procedure has the following effects:

1. Metabolic processes are normalized. Cells are saturated with nutrients and oxygen. The production of elastin and collagen increases, so the skin becomes elastic and wrinkles are smoothed out.
2. Thanks to the outflow of lymph, dark circles and bags under the eyes are reduced.
3. Microcurrents have an analgesic and regenerating effect, normalize the functioning of the sebaceous glands.
4. Muscle tone is restored, and this in turn provides an excellent lifting effect.

Some people wonder whether microcurrent therapy or myostimulation is better. During myostimulation, electric current is also used. But there is a different current strength and there is no effect at the cellular level. These are completely different procedures. Like, strictly speaking, disincrustation, lymphatic drainage or mesotherapy.

Microcurrent therapy is the effect of current on human soft tissues with low frequency and amplitude. This method combines the advantages of electromyostimulation and the effects of galvanic current on tissue. During the procedure, a very soft, gentle contraction of muscle tissue occurs.

Electric currents of ultra-low amplitude and frequency act directly on the cell membrane. The ion channels of the cell membrane are normalized. Thanks to this action, all biochemical processes are improved.

Indications for the procedure

Microcurrent therapy has a wide range of applications. It is indicated for skin pigmentation, dark circles under the eyes, and swelling of the face. In addition, it is recommended to do it for age-related changes (wrinkles or sagging skin). It is also indicated for very dry and sensitive skin.

The most important thing that microcurrents provide is the improvement of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) synthesis in cells and the normalization of facial muscle tone

This procedure can also be used as a restorative therapy after laser resurfacing and peeling. It also helps reduce aesthetic defects - scars, post-acne, etc.

By the way, microcurrent therapy is done not only on the face. It is also performed on other parts of the body. So, fat deposits are removed from the hips and abdomen. They also reduce hair loss due to alopecia. In this case, the scalp is affected.

What are the benefits of microcurrent therapy?

This cosmetic procedure has many benefits:

1. the effect is carried out directly on the cell membrane (due to this action, all biochemical processes are improved);
2. no painful sensations;
3. is not addictive;
4. the achieved positive result lasts for a long time;
5. after the procedure, the production of your own collagen and elastin increases;
6. has no age restrictions;

In addition, this procedure is time-tested and, judging by reviews, is highly effective. After it, the skin does not need special restorative care. She already feels great - and this is reflected in her appearance.

While I was studying the material, I wanted to try this procedure myself. Once I complete the course of plasma lifting for post-acne, I will talk to my cosmetologist about a course of microcurrents. I’m already 34 and I notice that my cheeks are not so elastic, and the muscles on my chin seem to be tightened.

There is another significant advantage of microcurrents. It can be performed at any time of the year - spring, summer, autumn or winter. No time restrictions. It's great, isn't it?

Protocol for the salon procedure

In the salon, microcurrent therapy lasts about 45 minutes. It consists of influencing the skin and underlying tissues with two special electrodes - stationary and labile. One electrode slowly moves towards the other from bottom to top along the muscle (for example, in the neck area). Or they can move towards each other, providing a stimulating effect. The electrodes can also spread apart, providing a relaxing effect.

How does the microcurrent therapy procedure work:

1. The procedure begins with a thorough make-up remover. Use the usual cleanser you have on hand.
2. The next step is applying a special conductive gel. It is applied locally to the area being worked on. Otherwise, it dries out and its effectiveness decreases.
3. Next is the microcurrent therapy procedure itself, which acts only on the epidermis and dermis. But also on the subcutaneous fat and muscle layer. During the procedure, the movements of the electrodes must correspond to the location of the muscles.
4. When finished, you need to wash off the gels and apply a mask according to your skin type. If you have age-related changes, then apply a tightening mask.

The intensity of the electrode used in each specific case may vary slightly. When carrying out such procedures, the microcurrent pulse can range from 10 to 600 μA. The frequency is 0.1-300 Hz.

Watch the video in which the cosmetologist shows in detail the protocol for the microcurrent procedure.

Frequency of the procedure and its cost

How often to do the procedure and the repetition period is chosen by the cosmetologist, based on your skin type. Here I will give only the recommended number of procedures for the first course and the frequency of repetitions for prevention.

The number of sessions depends on the client’s age and skin condition. The effects of microcurrent therapy are slow. That is, they have a cumulative effect. Therefore, it is recommended to undergo a course of procedures, and then regularly maintain it - periodically do 1 procedure for prevention. Usually, most women notice that they look five years younger.

Below are general and approximate recommendations for frequency:

Microcurrents are great for better recovery after facelift surgery, treating blood congestion, scarring and numbness. Microcurrents are also used for rehabilitation after thread lifting.

The cost of microcurrent therapy in Moscow varies between 2000 - 2500 rubles. How long to do the procedure, of course, is decided by the cosmetologist. The duration of therapy can be 30-60 minutes depending on the chosen program.

The procedure is not cheap and requires regularity. I recommend looking at promotions in beauty salons on the Biglion or Groupon websites. Sometimes there are interesting offers from beauty salons.

Photos before and after

I think that the most reliable feedback on the effectiveness of this procedure will be photos before and after it. Compare them. Here you can see with the naked eye that professionally performed microcurrent therapy really works.

How to do the procedure at home

If the price of a procedure in a beauty salon seems too expensive to you, you can go a different route. Just buy the device and do the procedure yourself at home.

Of all those presented on the Internet, the most famous portable device for home use is the Bio Wave Gezatone m920. Essentially it acts like an electric massager with two ball electrodes. They are supplied with alternating electrical voltage.

The box contains the device itself + instruction manual. The device runs on 2 pinky batteries; they need to be purchased separately. There is power adjustment. The weight is small - with packaging only 170 grams.

Since the advent of electricity, procedures using current have increasingly appeared in medicine. Its effect allows you to achieve an analgesic and preventive effect.

In the microcurrent procedure for the face, low voltage currents are used (in contrast to darsonvalization, where high voltage and low strength currents are used). This technique will tighten sagging skin, smooth out scars and wrinkles.

There is no consensus among cosmetologists about the benefits of the procedure. How effective is microcurrent therapy? What are its contraindications?

Microcurrent therapy

Microcurrent therapy is aimed at rejuvenating the skin of the face and body. It gets rid of swelling, restores elasticity, and reduces existing wrinkles.

Microcurrents for the face do not affect muscles, unlike myostimulation. The impulses are directed to the cell and vessels (blood, lymphatic). They are saturated with oxygen and vitamins.

The impact of microcurrents triggers a number of biochemical processes in the cell. Harmful toxins are removed. Blood circulation improves and lymph flows out. Indirectly, the procedure affects the muscle fibers in the upper layer of the epidermis.

The influence of microcurrents

Healthy cell function ensures elasticity and youthful appearance of the skin. With age, the normal functioning of the cell membrane becomes disrupted. Metabolic processes are disrupted, and the synthesis of biologically active substances (collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid) is reduced. Aging and cell death begins, which leads to wrinkles, sagging, and skin pigmentation.

Weak currents act at the cellular level. They restore the normal functioning of the membrane and cellular structures. Increase blood circulation, eliminate inflammatory processes. Stimulates the production of necessary enzymes.

The complex effect of microcurrents allows you to smooth out wrinkles and restore a healthy complexion. During the procedure, the walls of blood and lymphatic vessels are strengthened, which accelerates the removal of harmful substances and leads to overall rejuvenation of the facial skin.

How is the procedure done?

Microcurrents are a physiotherapeutic, hardware procedure. It is carried out in 2 ways:

1. Electrode with a special tip. A gel (or conductive cream) is applied to the face and neck. The cosmetologist moves the electrode over the problem area, performing massaging movements.
2. Gloves with connected electrodes. A thermal mask is applied to the face and neck area. There is a film on top of it to enhance the effect. A cosmetologist performs a massage with his hands dressed in gloves.

Indications for the procedure

A microcurrent facial procedure will help even out skin texture, smooth out unevenness and wrinkles, and tighten sagging areas. Before conducting a session, the cosmetologist cleanses the skin of cosmetics. Foams and scrubs are used for this. The better the pores are cleaned, the more noticeable the effect of the procedure will be.

1. age-related decrease in skin tone (flabbiness, sagging areas, wrinkles);
2. swelling of the face;
3. atopic dermatitis;
4. skin pigmentation;
5. itchy dermatitis;
6. restoration of the epidermis after surgery;
7. scars, cicatrices and other skin relief defects.

Microcurrents can be prescribed by a cosmetologist not only for the face, but also for the body. The procedure is recommended for getting rid of stretch marks and swelling of the legs. It will tighten the skin after liposuction. Restores the elasticity of the buttocks and breasts.

Microcurrents for the face: contraindications

There are restrictions for conducting a microtokiny session. You should avoid the procedure during acute respiratory viral infections, flu, and colds. Taking certain medications may cause skin reactions.

Contraindications for the procedure:

1. period of pregnancy and lactation;
2. oncological diseases;
3. presence of a pacemaker, implants;
4. herpes, fresh scars and wounds;
5. epilepsy;
6. the presence of inflammatory processes on the face or body;
7. heart rhythm disturbance.

The effect of microcurrents

The painless microcurrent facial procedure lasts approximately 40 minutes. Reviews from patients agree that the effect is noticeable after the first session. The skin becomes elastic, smooth, and glows with health.

After 5–6 sessions, a clear oval appears and the double chin disappears. The procedure helps eliminate sagging of the upper eyelid. Relieves acne, rosacea, acne, age spots.

Cosmetologists warn that for a long-lasting effect it is necessary to do several procedures. One course consists of 10–15 sessions.

Microcurrents for the face help regenerate the epidermis and normalize blood circulation. After the procedure, wrinkles and scars are smoothed out. Flabby, sagging areas disappear. This preventive procedure helps rejuvenate the skin of the face, neck, and décolleté.

Types of microcurrent therapy

Before starting a microcurrent facial procedure, you must pass an individual intolerance test. Conductive creams and gels can cause skin reactions. Before the session, be sure to undergo a high-quality medical examination and consult with a cosmetologist.

Microtokidia comes in several types. Only a dermatologist-cosmetologist will help you choose the appropriate sequence of effects on the skin, depending on the indications.

Lifting allows you to achieve smooth skin, completely eliminating wrinkles. Microcurrents affect the face, neck, and décolleté area.

Disincrustration aimed at cleaning pores and sebaceous plugs. Microcurrents will help restore the functioning of skin secretions and narrow pores.

Ionic mesotherapy will relieve swelling, bluishness of the skin, pigmentation, wrinkles.

Lymphatic drainage will restore water balance, having a beneficial effect on metabolic processes in the epidermis.

Reprogramming of facial wrinkles normalizes metabolic processes, restores skin elasticity and facial contours, and eliminates facial wrinkles.

After a microcurrent session, cosmetologists prescribe a skin care program. These are post-procedural activities that will enhance the effect.

Microcurrents for the face: price

The total cost of the procedure includes:

1. skin cleansing;
2. applying a conductive cream or gel;
3. microcurrent treatment time;
4. processing area;
5. restorative cream after the session.

The most expensive procedure includes microtocidia of the face, neck, and décolleté - 5,000 rubles. A less expensive complex - 800 rubles for the area around the eyes.

The most popular procedure is microcurrent for the face. Reviews (average price: 2,000 rubles) recommend getting a subscription for 10 procedures. The entire course with a discount will be 15,000 rubles.

Beauty salons have developed programs for anti-aging therapy. Thus, “Microcurrent lifting with the introduction of ampoules” costs from 3 to 30 thousand rubles. The Microcurrent Lymphatic Drainage program has a price ranging from 3 to 40 thousand rubles.

It will not be difficult to perform a microcurrent facial procedure at home. Reviews from doctors warn that before using the device, be sure to consult a cosmetologist.

Therapy at home

The procedure is safe at home. If the tingling becomes painful, the pulse frequency should be reduced.

Microcurrents for the face at home will help restore problem areas. Before purchasing a device, you should check the frequency (from 1 to 300 Hertz) and pulse strength (from 20 to 800 microamps).

You can purchase a device only with microcurrents (approximate price – 1500 rubles). A combined device will cost more. Its options may include procedures for myostimulation, vibration massage, lifting, thermolifting (price from 13 to 40 thousand rubles).

Microcurrents for the face at home involve the use of a special gel. The skin should not be dry during the procedure. For better conductivity of microcurrents in winter, aloe vera gel is suitable. In summer, you can use cream with cornflower extract for dry skin.

Features of the home procedure

At home, a microcurrent facial massager will help solve a number of problems. With its help, enlarged pores will narrow, dark circles under the eyes will disappear, and hair loss will stop.

The effect of the device may not be so noticeable. This is due to the fact that there are restrictions for home devices (as opposed to professional equipment).

It is enough to carry out 5 procedures per week. The general course can range from 20 to 30 sessions. After which you should take a break for 6 months. During these six months, maintenance, one-time procedures are allowed (once a month).

How to perform microcurrent facial treatment at home? Feedback from girls comes down to the fact that the most striking effect is achieved by the procedure in combination with collagen masks.

1. Before the session, clean the skin of cosmetics and apply a moisturizing toner.
2. Apply conductive gel. Do not smear it all over your face at once - it dries quickly. Apply gel to areas.
3. Perform microcurrent exposure according to instructions.
4. When finished, remove the gel from your face with a napkin.
5. Wash, apply cream according to your skin type.

Reviews about the procedure

Reviews of young girls (under 30 years old) recommend carrying out the procedure once a week for six months. This effect will help keep the skin in good condition and prevent the appearance of wrinkles.

Women aged 35 years and older claim that it is best to carry out the procedure at home 3-4 times a week. A clear facial contour will appear, pigmentation and swelling will be leveled, and the overall skin texture will be smoothed out. A course of 14 procedures is quite enough for a long-term effect. In order to maintain facial skin tone, repeat the procedure once a month.

The lifting effect is possible only after 5–6 procedures. But its effectiveness in the area of ​​the chest, abdomen, and buttocks is questioned by some cosmetologists. In the fight against cellulite and stretch marks, the procedure can lead to slight improvements. But it will not completely get rid of problem areas.

Cosmetologists warn that contraindications should be taken into account before a home session. If there are “golden” threads or dental pins in the affected area, this is a reason to refuse the procedure. Only after eliminating contraindications can side effects be avoided.

Before trying the microcurrent facial procedure at home, reviews (the price is quite reasonable) recommend conducting a one-time session at a cosmetology center. The specialist will explain the mechanism of action. Shows the order of zones and movements. Will recommend gel and post-procedure care.

Negative reviews mainly belong to ladies of the older age group. Women over 50 years of age are more often dissatisfied with the effect - it is minimal. In addition, the high price for the entire course discourages clients. Therefore, most women prefer to buy devices for home use. But there is also a drawback here - their efficiency is less than on a professional device.

Microcurrent therapy, which consists of the impact of weak pulsed currents of low frequency on the skin of the face and is a method of modern hardware cosmetology, is becoming increasingly popular every day due to its high effectiveness, absolute safety and the feeling of comfort experienced by patients.

By gently influencing cells, microcurrents activate metabolic processes occurring inside them, and also significantly improve blood microcirculation. Thanks to this effect, edematous tissues get rid of the stagnation of fluid accumulated in them, the nutrition of the skin improves, the penetration of beneficial substances included in the composition of applied cosmetics into them is facilitated, and a lifting effect is produced.

What is microcurrent therapy

Microcurrents, represented by weak pulsed currents of low (from 0.1 to 300 Hz) frequency, the characteristics of which are similar to electrical impulses of the human body, delicately - at the cellular level – affect the human body, significantly improving blood microcirculation and accelerating metabolism.
Microcurrents have a beneficial effect on all dermal layers of the skin, blood vessels, muscle tissue and subcutaneous fat. as a result:

1. The electrical charge of cell membranes is normalized, promoting the activation of intracellular biochemical processes, accelerating recovery processes, improving the functioning of fibroblasts and renewing skin cells.
2. The tone and elasticity of the facial muscles increases.
3. Blood circulation and the functioning of all blood vessels are significantly improved.
4. Skin cells are saturated with oxygen, giving the face smoothness and attractiveness.

Video about the action of microcurrent therapy

Microcurrent facial therapy procedures are carried out using devices that generate pulsed currents, the voltage of which ranges from 11 to 14 V.

The design of the electrodes in the devices is quite diverse. They can be:

1. round;
2. conical;
3. stationary;
4. with replaceable attachments in the form of disposable cotton swabs;
5. made in the form of special gloves.

Microcurrent therapy devices have nothing in common with myostimulators, which affect muscles using direct current with a force of over 1 mA. Microcurrents, which have variable frequencies and strengths ranging from 10-600 μA, affect not the muscles, but the tissues of nerves and subcutaneous fat, blood vessels, and skin cells (from the epidermis to the dermis).

Due to the insignificance of alternating current parameters, microcurrent therapy procedures cannot cause addiction, as a result of which each session is perceived by the body as a new healing effect.

How is the procedure performed?

Before starting microcurrent therapy sessions, a qualified specialist must make an accurate diagnosis, while simultaneously identifying the presence of contraindications to its implementation.

Only after making sure that there are no contraindications, the cosmetologist either begins to select a microcurrent program or draws up an individual treatment plan for the patient.

For example, if the reason for going to the salon is aging facial skin, the doctor first determines its type. The deforming type of aging is an indication that facial muscles are exposed to the main effects of microcurrents. The menopausal type of aging requires the use of a lymphatic drainage effect, and the fine-wrinkled type requires an active effect on the epidermal layers of the skin.

Microcurrent therapy sessions are carried out using specialized devices that deliver electrical impulses to the surface of the skin through electrodes, the shape of which depends on the area of ​​influence and the area of ​​the surface being treated.

In some devices, the role of electrodes is played by conductive gloves. Having put them on, the specialist massages problematic parts of the body. Thanks to the weak current flowing through the gloves, the therapeutic effect of the massage is enhanced many times over.

To create a contact environment that improves the conductivity of the skin, cosmetologists use liquid cosmetics with active ingredients, polarized water or conductive gels.

Given the poor conductivity of oil media, specialists do not use them in microcurrent therapy sessions. To prevent the patient from experiencing discomfort during the procedure due to drying out of the contact medium, the electrodes are periodically moistened.

The effect of microcurrents on the skin is carried out in one of two ways:

1. The “stable technique” involves fixing electrodes at certain points on the skin.
2. The “labile technique” consists of constantly moving conductive electrodes over the entire surface of the problem area.

Each microcurrent therapy session follows the following scenario:

1. First, remove facial makeup and cleanse the skin.
2. A conductive gel is applied to the skin of the problem area.
3. The skin is exposed to electrical impulses using conductor attachments. Thanks to this effect, lymphatic drainage of the skin and restoration of the tone of the facial muscles are carried out.
4. The remaining conductive agents are blotted with a special napkin, after which the patient is washed with warm water.
5. A cream or a special mask is applied to the face (depending on the tasks being solved).

The duration of the session is from half an hour to 45 minutes. All this time, the patient, relaxed as much as possible, lies on a comfortable table or in a special chair. As a rule, after the procedure he feels energetic and well rested.

Diamond resurfacing of the face is a type of mechanical peeling (microdermabrasion), more about its application below.

When the effect is visible

The result of exposure to electrical impulses is noticeable after the first session of microcurrent therapy. The resulting effect lasts for about a week. To obtain a longer-lasting result, a course of health or therapeutic procedures is required.

How often to do it and at what age

Microcurrent therapy can be used on patients of any age. Middle-aged women resort to it as a means of preventing aging. Experienced cosmetologists believe that health procedures using microcurrents should be started from the age of twenty-five.

1. To maintain the freshness of young skin, one preventive course per year is enough.
2. Beauties who have crossed the threshold of their thirties will need two courses of such procedures within a year.
3. To maintain the effect obtained, you need to visit a cosmetologist’s office at least once or twice a month.

How many procedures are required per course?

The minimum duration of a course of microcurrent therapy is 10, the maximum is 15 procedures: it depends on the condition of the skin, the age of the patient, and the nature of the problems being solved. In each specific case, treatment tactics are developed by a cosmetologist after a conversation with the patient and a thorough analysis of the above factors.

Indications and contraindications

Microcurrent therapy procedures are indicated if:

1. acne (acne) and rosacea;
2. atonic facial muscles;
3. dermatosis and atopic dermatitis;
4. facial wrinkles;
5. low skin turgor;
6. pigmentation and sallow complexion;
7. increased muscle tone;
8. persistent damage to skin blood vessels – rosacea;
9. postpartum stretch marks and scars left after acne;
10. aging and very dry skin (microcurrent therapy promotes deep hydration of the skin);
11. severe swelling of the face (it is possible to get rid of swelling due to improved lymphatic drainage);
12. hair loss;
13. saggy cheeks and chin (so-called “jowls”).

Microcurrent therapy is the only hardware technique that can be used to prepare the body and face for plastic surgery and more effectively undergo the rehabilitation period after it. The ability of microcurrents to tighten flabby and weakened muscles allows them to be used for lifting (tightening) and improving the contours of the face and the entire body.

With the help of microcurrents, you can speed up the healing of fractures and wounds, reduce the appearance of cellulite and even reduce the pain that accompanies radiculitis, herniated intervertebral discs and inflammation of diarthrosis. Microcurrent therapy sessions precede hair transplant operations. Given their excellent calming effect, they are recommended for patients suffering from neuroses.

Microcurrent treatment is compatible with a number of popular cosmetic procedures: oxygen therapy, microdermabrasion, mesotherapy and all kinds of massages, and when using cosmetics, their absorption is significantly improved.

However, the use of microcurrents is not for everyone. Microcurrent therapy sessions should be avoided:

1. pregnant women and nursing mothers;
2. patients with individual intolerance to microcurrents;
3. cancer patients;
4. with severe thrombophlebitis;
5. owners of benign neoplasms;
6. people who have recently suffered a stroke or myocardial infarction;
7. patients suffering from seizures (especially epilepsy);
8. in the presence of severe diseases of internal organs;
9. owners of any metal implants (such as pacemakers, gold threads and pins in the bones);
10. girls who have recently undergone chemical (acid) facial peeling;
11. when the integrity of the skin is violated;
12. people with mental illness;
13. persons suffering from drug addiction or chronic alcoholism.

Side effects

Microwave therapy sessions may be accompanied by:

1. metallic taste in the mouth;
2. bright flashes in the eyes (arising when microcurrents are applied to the area of ​​the upper eyelids, they do not pose any danger to vision);
3. slight tingling and tingling in the area of ​​contact of the skin with the electrodes of the device (this effect should be considered a normal reaction of the body to the action of microcurrents);
4. allergic reaction to cosmetic preparations used for procedures.

Algorithm of actions when performing home sessions almost identical to the one adopted in beauty salons, it consists of the following steps:

1. facial skin cleansing;
2. applying conductive gel;
3. exposure of the skin to the electrodes of a home device (all actions must strictly comply with the manufacturer’s instructions);
4. washing and applying nourishing cosmetics.

The duration of the course of home procedures, performed at least five times a week, can range from 20 to 30 sessions.

Price

Because the the cost of one session of microcurrent therapy ranges from 1200 to 1500 rubles, it is not difficult to calculate that the minimum course of procedures will cost a client of a beauty salon 12,000-15,000 rubles.

Reviews

Maria.
I became acquainted with microcurrent therapy quite recently: the first course will soon end, but now I can say that the results pleased me. My aging skin began to look more tightened after the first session. After the fifth, I noticed that the oval of the face acquired more beautiful and clear contours. I think that I will not part with this technique for many years to come.

Valeria.
To solve the problem of acne and not overpay huge sums to specialists in beauty salons, I bought a special device intended for household use. With its help, I was able to normalize the oiliness of my skin, simultaneously getting rid of annoying acne and gaping pores.

Natalya, cosmetologist.
As a specialist in the field of microcurrent therapy, I often get asked questions about why treatment results vary so much from one patient to another. The answer lies in the uniqueness of each human body. In addition, the nature of the problems being solved largely affects the speed of obtaining results.
The fastest and most noticeable effect is the procedure aimed at improving the drainage of swollen facial tissues. But eliminating deep wrinkles or old scars is a task that requires long-term and complex action using active skin care products.

Before deciding on microcurrent treatment (especially at home), you need to consult a professional cosmetologist, devoting him to all the intricacies of health problems. Having weighed the information received and analyzed the condition of the skin, he will suggest tactics for the health-improving or therapeutic effects of microcurrents.
