At Chic Lash Boutique, we’re not surprised that facial services and treatments, like NuFace, are reaching new levels of popularity. Between summer skin issues (hello, sweat & breakouts!), mask acne, and the need to feel calm & soothed during these crazy times, facial services are a great way to practice self care and help keep your skin healthy. If you really want to take your treatment to the next level, you might want to consider a microcurrent facial with a NuFace treatment. What does that mean? Let’s go over what this awesome treatment is, what it does, and how it can benefit you. Let’s get started!

What Is NuFace?

NuFace is one of the top brands creating products and devices to perform microcurrent treatments. NuFace is actually the first and only FDA-approved hand-held device that can be used for safe & effective microcurrent treatments. But what is a microcurrent treatment? This type of treatment uses a special device to transmit gentle electric energy to the skin & muscles of the face. Unlike other microcurrent & electrical stimulation devices, though, a NuFace treatment does not force your muscles to contract. Instead, NuFace’s electrical stimulation works to help your skin cells naturally produce proteins, nutrients, and compounds that will provide you with the results you want… without forced muscle contraction.

How Microcurrent NuFace Treatments Work

So how does electrical stimulation affect your skin? Microcurrent treatments & technology use gentle and painless electrical signals to stimulate and penetrate deep into the muscles and layers of your skin. These microcurrents of electrical energy stimulate your cells’ metabolism, which can then, in turn, increase production of collagen, elastin, and overall energy in your cells. It’s these compounds that can help tighten and strengthen our skin, especially as natural production of these compounds decreases with age. Electrical stimulation with NuFace also improves circulation, bringing healing & healthy nutrients to your skin. Most people describe the feeling of the NuFace treatment as relaxing and calming. Many feel nothing, while others feel a slight tingling sensation. Many of our clients also pair NuFace with a facial treatment to reap the benefits of a facial and completely relax.

Benefits

OK, so now you know what NuFace is and how it works on the molecular level. But, what does all of this molecular stuff mean in terms of visual & lasting benefits for your skin? Because NuFace’s microcurrent treatments stimulate your cells to produce more collagen, elastin, and ATP (which is your cell’s energy source), this results in:

• Tighter and firmer skin with fewer wrinkles
• Brighter & more youthful looking skin
• Plumper, thicker, and fuller lips without the injections
• Reduced and/or eliminated jowls & nasolabial folds
• Slight “lift” effect with more defined jawline & cheekbones
• Anti-aging effects

Many people find that a NuFace treatment is great for aging skin since it helps to tighten and smooth the skin without painful injections, invasive surgical procedures, or long recovery times. In fact, that’s another benefit of NuFace: it’s non-invasive, doesn’t hurt, and the results can be seen the day of your treatment!

Precautions

While most people are able to get a NuFace treatment without issue, there are some that should avoid the treatment or speak with a medical professional prior to getting it done. Those who are pregnant or have cancer, seizure disorders, electronic implants, and/or pacemakers should avoid NuFace treatments. NuFace devices and treatments can be adjusted to various strengths and voltages. Discuss any skin problems, health issues, implants, or any wants or needs you have with the person performing the treatment so they can adjust the settings to fit you perfectly.
