Benefits of Advanced Facial Treatments in Calgary AB
Advanced facial treatments incorporate scientific modalities such as microdermabrasion, microcurrent, LED light, high frequency, and ultrasound. These next-level techniques penetrate the deeper layers of the skin to increase oxygen delivery, stimulate collagen production, and accelerate the skin’s natural repair mechanisms, leading to a clearer, firmer, and more youthful complexion.
A key benefit to Advanced Facial treatments is the soothing effect on the nervous system through facial massage. Certain pressure points are stimulated that activate the parasympathetic nervous system which is responsible for calming the body. This activation helps reduce stress hormones like cortisol that directly affect anxiety, sleep, and systemic inflammation in the body. In today’s hectic pace, taking time to care for yourself is a preventative measure in protecting your overall mental, physical, and emotional health. Taking care of yourself also keeps you looking vibrant and feeling healthy which boosts self-confidence and everyone can benefit from that!

Microcurrent Therapy uses low-level electrical currents to stimulate the facial muscles to contract, promoting lifting, toning, and firming. In the same way that lifting weights at the gym firms and tones the body, microcurrent is a “workout” for the face. The facial muscles are exercised for you which strengthens the weaker muscles that contribute to facial sagging.
Microcurrent tightens the overall facial muscles immediately and has also been proven to increase your body’s natural organic compound called ATP – adenosine triphosphate, to improve cellular repair. The treatment improves the integrity of the skin, stimulates blood flow and leaves the skin supple, nourished and plump with visibly reduced fine lines and wrinkles.
LED light therapies are powerful, non-invasive treatments that work together to rejuvenate and improve the skin’s appearance. Different wavelengths of light target specific skin concerns. Red light reduces inflammation, promotes collagen production, and accelerates healing. Blue light targets acne causing bacteria and calms the skin. Green light targets sun damage and rosacea. The LED light wavelength is chosen to target what is most visible on the skin at the time of treatment.
Ultrasound enhances skin care treatments by utilizing sound waves to penetrate deeper layers of the skin. The ultrasound waves push active skincare ingredients deeper into the skin, enhancing their effectiveness. The gentle vibrations stimulate collagen production improving skin elasticity and reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Ultrasound also boosts blood flow to the skin which increases oxygen and promotes healing as well as aids in lymphatic drainage to reduce puffiness and detoxify the skin.
High frequency utilizes a glass tube with argon gas flowing through it to conduct an electrical current to the skin. This mild electrical current produces an enriched oxygen exchange in the skin which destroys bacteria causing acne. The electrical current also increases blood circulation, encouraging further oxygen and nutrients to reach the skin which promotes cell renewal and collagen production. Exceptionally good for treating acne, calming inflamed skin, reducing oil production and providing a rejuvenated, glowing complexion.
Diamond Microderm uses a tip made of natural diamond chips which polish the skin and remove dead skin cells to gently resurface the skin. As the layers of dead skin cells are removed, newly rejuvenated skin is revealed. Microderm is excellent for resurfacing dry dull skill, reducing post-acne scarring, diminishing fine lines, and shedding hyperpigmented skin cells such as sun spots and melasma. Results are immediately visible with a more even skin tone, smooth, soft skin to the touch, and a fresh glow. It is recommended to receive a microdermabrasion treatment monthly to maintain healthy skin.
