GlowLift Facial Toning

How many treatments are required?

We believe that 6 and 10 microcurrent treatments are needed to determine the best results. Treatments can be performed once or twice a week. After a course of Glowlift microcurrent treatments, regular monthly treatments should be maintained. Courses are discounted.

What results can I expect from the Microcurrent gloves?

Your skin will feel smoother, brighter, more sculptured, more toned, lifted and tightened.

Is the treatment painful?

Microcurrent is not regarded as a painful experience. Before the toning and lifting treatment begins on your face and neck, we would regulate the microcurrent by touching your skin with the gloves. The idea is to get the balance just right, so that you feel the current working on the muscles, whilst having minimal discomfort. There maybe a tingling sensation felt in the skin, but it is not unpleasant. Additionally, you are in communication with our senior skin therapist Jacqui all of the time. The treatment is tailored to your skin, and so as the muscles become educated during your course, the strength of the microcurrent can be increased if necessary. These muscles contractions are a little like increasing weights at the gym over a number of weeks.

How does the Microcurrent treatment work?

Microcurrent gloves are a successfully proven alternative to traditional ball tip probes such as the “Caci” or “Ultimate” devices previously used for a microcurrent facial treatment.  The pair of 7E conductive microcurrent gloves are 100% silver threaded and low resistance, which makes them easy to glide over the skin.

A microcurrent session with these antimicrobial gloves will transmit low-level electrical stimulation, targeting microcurrent energy deep into the skin tissue and leading to highly effective toning, lifting, sculpting of the skin and a reduction of fine lines and wrinkles.

The Microcurrent gloves or facial muscle toning gloves, help tone, sculpt and tighten facial and neck muscles. The effect of the treatments helps reduce any sagging in the face to improve and enhance facial contours.
As the microcurrent gloves stimulate collagen and elastin production, the treatments can also help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
The gloves are a step up from the older traditional electrical probes because the therapist achieves a closer feel to the skin and she / he is more in touch. The gentle movements across all areas of the face and neck lead to an increase in blood circulation. This also improves skin texture and skin tone, making it appear smoother and more youthful.
Also, due to the cost and the fact that the treatments are non-invasive and pleasant, they are a popular alternative to surgical procedures.

Microcurrent is not a painful experience. However, the intensity will vary from person to person. You may feel a tingling sensation, along with the occasional ‘jump’ as the current runs through the muscle.

Microcurrent gloves are designed to be used as an alternative to traditional ball tip probes or cotton tip probes, previously used for microcurrent facial treatments. They are an ideal way to provide a more detailed microcurrent treatment for facial lifting and toning. The pair of conductive microcurrent gloves are 100% silver threaded and low resistance, which makes them easy to glide on the facial skin or neck.

An electrical current runs between the positive and negatively charged conductors (gloves). When both are in contact with your skin, the current flows through the muscles. This educates them to lift and tone.

There are 32 muscles to re-educate and lift and tone. However, just a very small amount of current is not enough by itself to stimulate the muscles, which is why the specific professional electric gloves are amazing for hands-on lifting and product penetration.

Your skin will be prepped correctly by your therapist. Your skin will be cleansed thoroughly with a professional oil-free cleansing gel and be left completely free from any product residue. Oils actually act as a barrier to the electrical current.

It is recommended that you have a course of 6 – 10 treatments initially. Ideally, you should have a minimum of 2 treatments per week. The facial and neck muscles will respond quicker and stay tighter if the treatments are compacted into a short timeframe. Following your course it is recommended to have at least one treatment per month to maintain the muscle lifting and toning.

No. If you are diabetic, suffer from epilepsy, are pregnant, or have heart issues (such as a pacemaker fitted), microcurrent facials would not be suitable. Also, if you have chronic acne, the microcurrent may stimulate any inflammation that you may have. A small spot on the face however, would be fine to carry on treatment.

There are 32 muscles in the face and each one of these can be targeted during the treatment.
