A high frequency machine generates a current that is transmitted to the skin through a glass electrode. High frequency equipment is heat producing due to the high rate of oscillation.

All high frequency facial machines include delicate glass electrodes which come in many different shapes and sizes to treat various contours of the face and body. When applied to the surface of the skin, a mild electrical current passes through the neon or argon gas filled glass electrode causing it to emit a subtle glow. The electrodes produce varying intensities of infrared light and a pleasant, therapeutic tingling sensation which may be adjusted via a power control dial

High frequency equipment consists of a high frequency electrical board, capacitances and semiconductors. The accessories include high frequency probe and glass tubes. There is a transformer in the high frequency probe for voltage regulation. Inside the glass electrode, there is helium and neon gas, which generate blue or pink light and create a crackling sound.

The esthetician holds the electrode and works in circular motions for 3 to 5 minutes. Skin care treatments with high-frequency started with a mild current, and gradually the strength is increased. High frequency current is used directly on dry skin or over dry gauze. The current will have a more stimulating effect when the current is applied over dry gauze.

The Benefits of High Frequency Current

Acne:

• Eliminate Toxins Deep within the Skin which helps to kill harmful bacteria and diminish inflammation.
• Reduce the size of enlarged pores
• Exfoliate dead skin cells
• Controlling excess sebum production
  • The blood vessels expand and shrink, which improves circulation.
  • Treatment of acne – germicidal, drying and healing.
  • Strengthen metabolism of cell, help skin breath and excrete.
  • Bring heat to skin fibre and improve skin condition
    To sterilize and diminish inflammation,
  • Promote wounds to heal up, and strengthen skin immunity.
    • Diminishes inflammation and increase healing.
    • The enriched oxygen molecules produced by high frequency machines effective on minor skin lesion from acne to skin irritations such as waxing procedures, cold sores, etc.

 Anti-aging:

• Kick-start the skin rejuvenation process.
• Strengthens cell metabolism. Supply nutrition to skin.
• Increase blood circulation and cell renewal. Increased production levels of Collagen and Elastin soften and smooth away wrinkles, reduce pore size and improve overall skin texture.
• Helps the skin to absorb skin care products, thereby increasing their effectiveness.
• Stimulates surface tissue stimulate circulation
• Increases glandular activity
• Aids in elimination and absorption
• Strengthen lymph action
• Tone, tighten, and stimulate natural collagen formation.
  • Encourage lymphatic drainage
  • Hydrating volume is increased. Skin toning, conditioning, nutrients supply to the skin cells in increased.
  • Energising, leaving the skin firm and refreshed.
  • Helps to heal and restore the skin's health.
  • Nourishes the skin's surface and renews underlying cells.
  • It also produces an enriched form of oxygen, which can provide the skin with a firm, youthful, vibrant glow.

Reduce Puffy eyes:

The pulsating "oxygenation" action produced by high frequency current aids in lymphatic drainage and disperses excess fluid while increasing blood circulation. The result is a reduction in the appearance of congested, tired, puffy eyes.

Fade Dark Eye Circles:

New scientific research has shown the cause of severe dark eye circles to be broken capillaries that have leaked haemoglobin, creating a red-blue pigment deposit under the eyes. High frequency creates a circulation rush in the area and helps your current under eye product penetrate deeper into the skin tissue. The application of high frequency can be very effective at fading dark under eye circles resulting in a fresher, brighter, more youthful looking appearance.

Anti- Cellulite:

With regular use, high frequency treatment can be very effective at reducing reducing the appearance of cellulite when used in conjunction with a quality cellulite product. For years, the skin care industry has relied on this same high frequency, oxygen molecule producing technology to aid in lymphatic drainage, gently exfoliate the skin, increase blood circulation, assist in the production of collagen and elastin and promote healthy cell metabolism. The result: smoother, firmer, more refined skin.

Thinning Hair:

Through its rapid oscillation, high frequency current improves the process of nourishment, gently exfoliates the skin, promotes local blood circulation, stimulates local glandular activity, supplies heat to the area which is soothing to the nervous system and significantly improves the scalp's receptiveness to and the overall effectiveness of post-treatment hair growth formulas. For many years, hairdressers have used high frequency current technology to revitalize scalp conditions which can aid in promoting healthier hair growth.
