Hello! It is March and we are inching closer and closer to Spring Break. Which means it is time to start revealing not only the physical glow up but also the mental and emotional glowup. Hey now!
As a Licensed Esthetician, I want to talk about ultrasound and how it can benefit your skin. I am sure you heard of ultrasound in terms of pregnancy but the benefits exceed just detecting fetal movement.
What is Ultrasound?
Ultrasonic machines transmits high-frequency (1 to 5 megahertz) sound pulses into your body using a probe device. The sound waves travel into your body and hit a boundary between tissues. The sound wave technology is used to penetrate below the surface of the skin. Ultrasonic energy is absorbed which results in a slight rise in temperature in the surrounding tissue. This promotes cellular renewal and repair, increases blood circulation, encourages lymphatic drainage, combats puffiness and swelling. Sound vibrations also have the power to push nutrient-rich serums deeper into the skin, increasing active ingredient effectiveness.The skin is left feeling instantly energized, rosy, more firm, refreshed and noticeably softer to the touch.
Ultrasonic Facial Treatments
You would use this treatment in order to increase cellular turnover, plump up and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, improve acne and blemishes, tighten enlarged pores, relieve puffy eyes, or fade dark eye circles. The sound waves penetrate into the skin but they do not cause any discomfort or adverse side effects, making the process highly effective, with no downtime, redness or pain. When combined with serums customized for your skin and its concerns you will instantly see results the next day in terms of smoothness and texture.
Ultrasonic Slimming and Body Contouring
This treatment utilizes ultrasonic cavitation in a simple procedure that relies on sound waves to flush fat from the body instead of intensive surgery. Noninvasive machines target specific body areas with low-frequency sound waves which then in turn heats and vibrates the layer of fat cells below the skin's surface. The pressure eventually causes the fat cells to liquefy and release their contents into the bloodstream. Whoa baby! This is why I recommend drinking water! You must further eliminate these toxins through sweat and urine...hey lymphatic system. Now it is a no-brainer based on this process that you can expect results such as Reduced circumference in the treated area (due to fat-cell release) and An overall contoured appearance! Ultrasonic cavitation does not destroy fat cells; rather, it empties them of their contents, which means the cells are capable of storing fat again. A balanced diet is the only way to ensure lasting results. Those who take in more calories than they burn will see their improvement start to decrease over time. It is best to buy package deals of at least 8-12 sessions which will last 30 minutes to 1 hour. Again wellness and not just weight-loss is the goal! So it is key to remain well balanced for the BEST results.
