Skin Beauty Business - The Miracle of Micro-current Facial Rejuvenation

Many women go into denial at the first sign of age. We head to the hair salon to hide the grey and the spa to buff our bodies. We max out the credit card to buy pretty camouflage.

This boosts the economy, but does it help you? No matter how much moisturizer we slather on, that teensy alley we first notice on the skin seems to look more like the Grand Canyon every day.

Help is out there, but what if you're not interested in going under the knife and don't like the idea of being pricked and prickled by needles or lasers?

Microcurrent has been used in the medical profession for over 30 years. It firms, smoothes and rehydrates at a fraction of the cost of other treatments. Without the risk of invasive procedures, microcurrent:

• improves tone and elasticity

• reduces fine lines and wrinkles

• exfoliates

• has no downtime or bruising

• redefines and contours

As we age, our circulation slows. Fewer nutrients and stimulants reach our muscles and skin. This is another reason why it's important to exercise. Think of microcurrent as exercise for the face (and hands, neck and décolletage).

One hundred percent safe, this painless, low level electrical impulse technique gently plumps and programs your muscles back into shape via two hand-held probes. Microcurrent lifts and firms in the same way exercise at the gym tunes and tones your body.

Magic

It not only tightens and helps with droop to fight gravity, but nourishes to renew that youthful glow and encourage the production of collagen and elastin. These are the magic essentials that reduce lines and wrinkles.

Microcurrent is a very relaxing way to revive the skin, says New York physician Dr. Howard Bezoza. It "strengthens the facial skin, the sagging muscles and rejuvenates the skin's elasticity. You can actually see the improvement right before your eyes." Collagen production increases by14 percent, elastin by 48 percent and blood circulation by 38%.

Prevention

Although we don't usually notice the skin sag and wrinkle until our 30s and beyond, facial muscles may start flopping as early as age 25. The ideal candidate for microcurrent is usually thirty or forty-something, but it's never too soon to start this preventative treatment. It's also never too late-many women start in the 50s and 60s.

Most candidates benefit from a series of 12 or so sessions. Treatment usually takes about an hour so it can be fitted in during lunch or after work. Microcurrent has been featured on Oprah and is popular with celebrities and others in the public eye.

Microcurrent is safe for virtually everyone-but those with heart pacemakers or who are pregnant shouldn't try it without an okay from their doctors.

Another plus of the treatment is that it's so relaxing, you not only know you're going to look better, but you always feel much better when you leave than when you arrive.
