Deeper exfoliation enhances micro-current therapy, clearing away dead cells on the surface of the skin and around the pores, and allowing anti-oxidants and oxygen to penetrate more deeply into the skin. Micro-currents stimulate blood and lymphatic circulation and activate cellular renewal while stretching and tightening facial muscles to achieve a firmer, younger appearance.

Mild electronic stimulation temporarily changes the balance of positive and negative ions in the skin, opening and closing pores and allowing lightening ingredients to travel into the skin. Deeper exfoliation reduces the effects of aging and sun exposure as it allows brightening elements to penetrate more deeply.

The firming and toning effects of micro-current treatment are heightened with Intense Pulsed Light Photo Rejuvenation which induces collagen formation in the skin. IPL also helps to resolve hyperpigmentation and redness resulting from rosacea and broken capillaries.

The reduction of sun damage and age spots is achieved in two ways. Intense Pulsed light is applied to individual spots while Ionizing effects a general brightening of the complexion.

Facial Rejuvenation Techniques at Shizuka New York

Microcurrent Therapy at Shizuka NYC Day Spa can be effective in firming the skin, toning facial muscles, lifting the eyebrow and eyelid area, redefining the cheeks, reducing wrinkles on the face and forehead, and smoothing small wrinkles around the upper lip. The microcurrents (mild electronic currents) work in three phases:

• Phase 1 activates blood and lymphatic circulation while oxygenating the skin and boosting cellular renewal in the epidermis (the outermost layer of the skin).
• Phase 2 lifts sagging muscles while relaxing tight muscles to create a more relaxed and refreshed look. This phase stimulates collagen formation and has an overall tightening effect on the skin.
• Phase 3 delivers antioxidant agents deep into the skin, improving skin moisture and elasticity, and rebalancing the skin's pH.

Shizuka's Ionizing Technique temporarily polarizes the skin, changing the balance of positive and negative ions to allow lightening agents, including Kojic Acid and Vitamin C, deeper into the skin.

*Micro-Current and Ionizing therapies are safe and appropriate for all skin types. There is generally no discomfort involved. However, those who are pregnant and those with pacemakers, metal prostheses or implants, inflammation or open wounds, epilepsy, cancer, or HIV should consult with their doctors before having treatment.

Photo Rejuvenation at Shizuka NYC Day Spa uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to treat a variety of issues including hyperpigmentation resulting from overexposure to the sun and UV rays, broken capillaries, and rosacea while stimulating collagen formation in the skin. IPL Photo Rejuvenation facials require a free consultation with Shizuka before treatment. For more information, please visit ShizukaNY.com/facial_faq.htm.
