The Amazing Benefits of the UltraSonic Facial Treatment

Some of you have already experienced our amazing Ultrasonic cleansing, 
exfoliating, serum infusion & lifting/firming treatments, along with our 302 
skincare products in your facials.  Here is some exciting information regarding the 
vast benefits of the Ultrasound technology in skincare.

 Ultrasound is generated by a sonicator that sends high frequency sound 
waves into the tissue. It has been in use in industrial and laboratory work for 
decades for everything from antimicrobial work to mixing paint. Recently, the 
use in repair of skin tissues and as a joint pain reliever, or as an  anti-inflammatory in arthritis has found widespread application in many parts of the world. It has been slower to catch on in session skin care in the United States because of our preoccupation with acids and external exfoliations.
 
Ultrasound works deep.

 There are two aspects of ultrasound that interest us most of all. First, it can be used to propel high performance topicals deeper into the skin. Second,  it has the intrinsic benefits of helping to remove oxidized matter (e.g.lipofuscin) excretion.  Lipofuscin is a material which builds up in the cells due to ageing processes.  When we do not have the cellular energy to detoxify, this material remains stuck in the cells, creating damage and slowing cellular metabolism.
 
Ultrasound treatments are typically spaced at least four or five days apart. 
It gently vibrates the cell and the space between cell walls. When 
properly done, this helps to facilitate the removal of waste products and too, 
permits the deeper penetration of topical substances. In ordinary topical 
application, products below 750 molecular weight (<750MW), work their way slowly 
down into the layers of skin where they are, to a great extent, cut apart by the 
skin enzymes and other defenses and only there do the metabolites of the
original product reach the target. 

With ingredients above 750 molecular weight (>750MW), nothing gets below the
very upper layers of the epidermis. By accelerating topical substances of <750 MW deeper down, ultrasound  delivers the topical to the cells which ordinarily would not have access to the  benefits. This has the potential for harm if the topical is a charged particle  (such as an acid) or otherwise cannot be safely metabolized. 
 
With 302 products we have non-charged particles of low molecular weight (< 350 MW) and proven safety able to go right to the cell door, with ultrasound assist. The procedure is fast, effective and results immediately apparent. The ultrasound stimulation may also provide a mini-face lift effect, as very small facial muscles also respond.
 
In these studio or clinic sessions we like to use combinations of 302 
Drops and 302 C Boost, or 302 C Boost and 302 A Boost or all three.
This would be preceded by a thorough cleansing and extraction procedure.
 
Our recommendation is to limit ultrasound and high performance topicals when 
used together to once per week for a series of six weeks. No high 
performance topical should be applied for two days following this session of multiple 
product applications and ultrasound combination. 
 
As a tool for rejuvenation, ultrasound is powerful, simple and effective. It 
will give you the immediate result without using harmful chemical exfoliants and continue its effects for months after application.

 

 Ultrasound + 302 products are beneficial for thin, weak skin, coarse, rough 
skin, cuperose skin, acne,  scars, blotchy, uneven skin, dry, oily & normal 
skin, aged & adolescent skin.

 

 It can stimulate fibroblast production of new collagen, increase collagen 
extensibility, reduces wrinkles and fine to medium-heavy lines,
 stimulates new capillary growth, reduces large pores, destroys viral,
 bacterial infections (acne), reduces age spots and balances melanin production,
 improves nutrient uptake, removal of metabolic products, stabilizes immune
 system response in inflammatory conditions, increases removal of tissue debris,
 increases lymphatic drainage, and elevates natural anti-oxidant defenses.
