Acne Treatment High Frequency- Alex International Beauty Academy and Skin Clinic

High-frequency treatments for acne use an electrical current to produce heat, which is believed to help reduce acne by promoting blood circulation, decreasing inflammation, and killing bacteria on the skin. Here’s an overview of how it works and what to expect:

How High-Frequency Treatment Works

1. Electrotherapy- High-frequency devices use a glass electrode filled with either neon or argon gas. When the electrode is applied to the skin, it emits a mild electrical current.
2. Oxygenation and Circulation- The electrical current generates ozone, which has antibacterial properties, and increases blood flow to the area, enhancing oxygenation and promoting healing.
3. Reduction of Inflammation- The treatment can help to reduce redness and inflammation, making pimples less noticeable.
4. Cell Renewal- Improved circulation encourages cell renewal, aiding in skin recovery and repair.

Benefits

1. Kills Bacteria- The ozone generated by the high-frequency device helps to kill bacteria on the skin, reducing the likelihood of acne outbreaks.
2. Reduces Redness and Inflammation: Helps to soothe the skin and reduce the appearance of redness.
3. Improves Circulation- Enhances blood flow, promoting healthier skin.
4. Non-Invasive- A gentle, non-invasive treatment option with minimal side effects.

Procedure

1. Preparation- The skin is cleaned thoroughly to remove any makeup, dirt, and oil.
2. Application- The glass electrode is applied to the skin. The treatment can be done in either a direct or indirect method:
3. Direct Method- The electrode is applied directly to the skin, generating a mild heat and tingling sensation.
4. Indirect Method- The electrode is held by the practitioner, and the current is transmitted through their hands to the client’s skin.
5. Duration- Each session typically lasts 10-20 minutes, and multiple sessions may be recommended for best results.
6. Post-Treatment Care- Moisturizers and serums can be applied after the treatment to soothe the skin and enhance results.

Considerations
Skin Type- Suitable for most skin types, but individuals with sensitive skin should consult with a dermatologist before treatment.
Consistency- Regular sessions may be necessary to see significant improvements.
Professional Guidance- It’s best to have treatments done by a licensed esthetician or dermatologist to ensure safety and efficacy.
