As baby boomers age, more advancements are being made in anti-aging products to meet their needs. Electronic facial machines, which are designed to tighten and tone sagging facial muscles, are no exception.
The latest facial toning machines use “microcurrent” technology and are one of the hottest things in the antiaging industry right now. There’s a good reason why these machines are so popular. Using microcurrent pulses, they deliver almost instant visible results to tighten, tone and firm aging skin. In fact, the results of microcurrent facial toning are so dramatic that it is often referred to as a “non-surgical facelift.”
How does microcurrent facial toning work? To understand that, we must first understand what causes the skin on our face to wrinkle and sag. As we age, our muscles get used to certain expressions and tend to “stick” in these positions. A great example of this is the ridge between the eyebrows that many people get. At the same time, other muscles in our face are rarely used and begin to atrophy, leading to sagging. An example of this can often be seen around the jaw lines, chin and neck, where we tend to develop sagging or loss of definition as we age.
Microcurrent facial toning machines deliver safe, painless impulses to the muscles of the face that help overly tight muscles relax and help unworked muscles regain strength. In essence, microcurrent facial toning “re-educates” facial muscles and restores them to almost their original shape.
When this happens, the visible results are quite dramatic and the face is lifted, firmed and toned to return to a much more youthful appearance. At the same time, microcurrents improve circulation to the face, which stimulates collagen production, improves tone and texture, and improves or eliminates fine lines.
Besides the fact that it really works, one of the things that makes microcurrent facial toning so popular is that most people see visible results after just one treatment. This provides “instant gratification” rarely seen as a result of other anti-aging products or techniques. In fact, the results are so remarkable that if you only treat half of your face once, you can see a visible difference between the half you treated and the half you didn’t.
Microcurrent facial toning is also cumulative, which means the more treatments you have, the more improvements you will see in your face. Treatments are quite expensive, with an average cost of $110/treatment. Most people get at least 7-12 treatments to get the desired results.
Although microcurrent facial toning is the current “buzzword” in anti-aging, the technology is not new. It has over 50 years of historical data and clinical trials supporting its anti-aging benefits. It is a great peace of mind that it proves that it will not only work, but that it is also safe and has no long-term side effects.
Microcurrent facial toning is an excellent alternative to a facelift as it is non-invasive, requires no recovery time, provides instant results, and does not carry the same potential for harmful complications as surgery.
