High frequency machine in use |
A high frequency machine is a super-cool esthetician's tool that helps with a wide variety of skin issues. It's pretty magical. I've witnessed, first hand, big, cyst-like pimples reduce in size by up to 50% after one visit. In a nutshell, the tool is a wand that holds electrodes. The electrodes help heal blemishes by creating ozone on the skin, killing bacteria, promoting healing & circulation, and removing toxins. It also helps aging and wrinkled skin by oxygenating the skin and allowing for better product penetration. It stimulates circulation which helps produce collagen and elastin. It can also be used on the scalp to stimulate hair growth.
A Wood's lamp is an ultra-violet light that sees beneath the skin's surface. It can detect all skin issues, including clogged pores, blemishes, dehydration and sun damage spots that are working their way to the surface. By using the lamp, the esthetician can start working on these areas long before the issues reveal themselves.
