Ultrasound Facial treatment in Hertfordshire

Ultrasound facial is a non invasive and painless facial, that uses the power of sound waves to refresh and rejuvenate your skin.

The device emits high frequency ultrasound waves. These waves penetrate deep into the layers of your skin, promoting increased collagen production and enhancing elasticity.

It improves the absorption of skincare products. By increasing the permeability of the skin, the ultrasound waves enhance the penetration of serums, creams, and other products, allowing them to deeply nourish your skin and deliver fantastic results.

It is completely safe and suitable for all skin types. There are no needles, no downtime, and no discomfort.

The ultrasound uses sonophoresis, it is like a non-injectable mesotherapy. It allows to break the natural barrier of the skin and to reach the deeper layers, that the usual creams and masks cannot get to.

With the help of this clever machine, we can deliver active substances to the deeper skin layers, and all that without any injections or needles. Ultrasound therapy is that missing link between the creams and the syringe. It is a very effective, non-invasive, and painless method of skin rejuvenation and stimulation!

How does ultrasound facial work?

The treatment uses ultrasonic waves that penetrate deep into your skin, it gently heats up the tissues and stimulates collagen production. This non-invasive procedure enhances the elasticity and firmness of your skin, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and improves overall skin tone and texture. The ultrasonic waves also help the absorption of active ingredients in creams and serums, allowing for deeper penetration and hydration.

How many treatments do you need for best results?

For optimal and visible results, it’s recommended to have a series of 2-4 ultrasound treatments.

While you may notice some improvement after just one treatment, the full benefits of ultrasound facials are usually seen after completing a series of sessions. Each treatment builds on the previous one, giving cumulative benefits that lead to more noticeable and long lasting results.

It is recommended to schedule one ultrasound facial per month. This allows your skin time to regenerate, produce collagen, and respond to the treatment.

Ultrasound facials use sound waves to create two effects – cavitation and acoustic streaming. Cavitation involves forming tiny bubbles in the skincare product and surrounding tissue, which burst and release energy to create small pressure waves. Acoustic streaming is the gentle movement of fluids caused by the ultrasound waves, helping to push the skincare product deeper into the skin.

The combination of cavitation and acoustic streaming temporarily opens small channels in the skin’s outer layer, the stratum corneum. These tiny openings allow skincare products to penetrate deeper into the skin layers, enhancing the effectiveness of their active ingredients.

Sonophoresis is the process of using ultrasound waves to increase the absorption of skincare products. It helps deliver active ingredients directly to targeted layers of the skin, hydrating, reducing signs of aging, and brightening.

Ultrasound waves also increase blood flow in the treated area, bringing more oxygen and nutrients to skin cells. This improved circulation supports cell health and rejuvenation, making the skin look more radiant and plump.

The effectiveness of an ultrasound facial depends on the skincare products. Formulas with smaller molecules or optimised for sonophoresis are best to enhance absorption.

What can you expect during your ultrasound facial?

• We start with a consultation to discuss your skin concerns, goals, and preferences. This helps us customise the treatment for your specific needs. This is usually done online or via emails before booking your appointment.
• We’ll cleanse your skin to remove makeup and impurities.
• Depending on your treatment plan, we may apply a serum or other products, like collagen or a custom mix of ingredients, to address specific skin concerns.
• A conductive gel is then applied to your skin, this gel helps the ultrasound waves reach where they stimulate collagen and enhance product absorption. The gel also prevents direct contact between the ultrasound device and your skin.
• Handheld ultrasound device will glide over your face, focusing on targeted areas. You may feel a warm sensation. The treatment is comfortable and non invasive, with most clients finding it soothing and relaxing.
• Once the treatment is complete, we will remove the gel and may recommend specific skincare products or tips to maintain and boost your results.
• Over time, and with repeated treatments, you can expect improvement in skin tone, texture, and firmness, as well as a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. Your skin will look refreshed, revitalised, and more youthful.
