Ultrasound facial treatment in Hertfordshire

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

The device emits high frequency ultrasound waves. These waves penetrate deep into your skin, increase collagen production and enhance elasticity.

Ultrasound improves the absorption of skincare products. By increasing the permeability of the skin, the ultrasound waves enable serums, creams, and other products to penetrate your skin.

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 mesotherapy but without needles and injections. It breaks the natural barrier of the skin to reach the deeper layers, that the usual creams and masks cannot reach.

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. It 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?

It’s recommended to have a series of 3-4 ultrasound treatments. You may notice some improvement after just one treatment, the full benefits of ultrasound facial are seen after completing a course. Each treatment builds on the previous one, to give cumulative benefits that lead to more noticeable and long lasting results.

Treatments should be spaced one month apart to allow your skin to regenerate, produce collagen, and respond to the treatment.

 

What are the benefits of an ultrasound facial?

The combination of cavitation and acoustic streaming temporarily opens small channels in the skin, these tiny openings allow skincare products and active ingredients to penetrate deep into the skin.

It moisturises, reduces signs of aging, and brightens.

We start with a consultation to discuss your skin concerns, to customise the treatment for your needs.

We’ll cleanse your skin and remove your makeup. Depending on your treatment plan, we will apply a serum or other products, to address specific skin concerns. A conductive gel is then applied to 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, most clients find it soothing and relaxing.

When the treatment is completed, we will remove the gel and recommend specific skincare products or tips to maintain and boost your results.
