WELCOME

ULTRASONIC FACIAL™ combines two facial beauty treatments. Used directly on moist skin, the cleansing treatment delicately exfoliates and deeply cleanses the skin with tiny ultrasonic vibrations which help to remove dead skin cells, dirt and sebum. The skin immediately feels smoother and softer.

The second treatment uses the salon technique of high frequency micro-patting (sonophoresis) for the enhanced application of moisturisers, serums and anti-ageing products.

TIPS FOR EFFECTIVE CLEANSING

We recommend using the methods shown below as they encourage the body's natural lymphatic drainage. For best results, take your time and use short overlapping strokes.

Sweep from the neck upwards onto the face in horizontal strokes on both sides of the face in turn. Methodically work over all areas of the face as shown in the illustration.

Change the direction of the handset and glide in vertical sections/strokes starting from the neck area, working from the jaw to the hairline.

For cleansing around the curve of the nostril lobe, use the curved corner of the blade.

9

TIPS FOR EFFECTIVE CLEANSING

Use the scooped out middle section of the blade to cleanse the chin area under the bottom lip with downward vertical strokes.

Select the low setting to work around the eyebrow area. You should avoid the delicate under eye area when carrying out the Deep Cleanse Programme.
