• Improved Skin Elasticity: By stimulating collagen and elastin, micro currents contribute to improved skin
elasticity, making the skin feel Firmer and more resilient.
• Non-Invasive and Painless: Micro current therapy is non-invasive and generally painless. It is a suitable
option for individuals looking for facial rejuvenation without surgery or injections.
• Reduction of Sagging Skin: Micro currents can help address sagging or lax skin by toning and firming the
underlying muscles.

• Facial Contouring: Micro current therapy contributes to facial contouring by defining the jawline, cheekbones,
and other facial features.
• Immediate Results with No Downtime: Many individuals experience immediate results after a micro current
session, and there is typically no downtime associated with the treatment.
• Prevention of Muscle Atrophy: Micro current therapy helps prevent muscle atrophy by stimulating and
exercising facial muscles, keeping them toned and active.

• Natural-Looking Results: Micro current therapy provides natural-looking results without the frozen or artificial
appearance sometimes associated with other cosmetic procedures.
• Stimulation of Fibroblasts: Micro currents stimulate fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen
and elastin, promoting overall skin rejuvenation.
• Suitable for Various Skin Types: Micro current therapy is generally safe for all skin types, including sensitive
skin, making it inclusive for a broad range of individuals.
2 Radiofrequency (RF) Machine:Uses radiofrequency waves to heat deep layers of skin, stimulating collagen
production and tightening loose or loose skin.

Use of Radiofrequency (RF) Machine
1 Cleanse the Skin: Begin by thoroughly cleansing the treatment area to remove any makeup, oils, or impurities.
Clean skin allows for better penetration of the radiofrequency energy.

2 Apply Conductive Gel: Apply a conductive gel to the treatment area. The gel helps to facilitate the movement
of the RF handpiece and ensures good conductivity of the radiofrequency energy.
Using the RF Machine
3 Set Parameters: Adjust the RF machine settings based on the desired treatment outcome and the specific
needs of the client. Parameters may include energy level, treatment time, and frequency.
4 Test Patch: Perform a small test patch on a less visible area to assess the client’s skin tolerance and ensure
that there are no adverse reactions.
5 Prepare the RF Handpiece: Ensure that the RF handpiece is clean and in good condition. Depending on the
machine, the handpiece may have different Applicators for various treatment areas.
6 Perform the Treatment: Move the RF handpiece in a controlled and systematic manner over the treatment
area. Typically, the handpiece is moved in circular or sweeping motions to evenly distribute the radiofrequency
energy.
7 Monitor Temperature: Some RF machines have temperature monitoring features. Pay attention to the skin
temperature and adjust the energy level as needed to maintain a comfortable and effective treatment.
8 Targeted Areas: Focus on specific areas that require skin tightening or collagen stimulation, such as the
forehead, jawline, cheeks, and neck. Adjust the settings for different parts of the face or body.
9 Customize for Skin Type: Adjust the machine settings based on the client’s skin type and sensitivity. Different
energy levels and treatment parameters may be suitable for various skin conditions.
10 Repeat Passes: Depending on the treatment protocol, you may need to make multiple passes over the same
area to ensure comprehensive coverage and optimal results.

11 Post-Treatment Cooling: Some RF machines come with a cooling feature to soothe the skin after the
treatment. If available, use the cooling function to enhance client comfort.
12 Apply Post-Treatment Products: After completing the RF treatment, apply post-treatment products, such as
a calming or hydrating serum, to nourish and soothe the skin.
