Galvanic and High Frequency Facials
with Collin Paris
Galvanic Electrical Facials
This is a specialised treatment which introduces negatively charged ionised water soluble products via a galvanic current into the deep layers of the skin tissues to treat a range of skin types and conditions.
The treatment includes:
Skin analysis is followed by an initial cleanse, toning and exfoliation using Collin Paris products.
Using a negative galvanic current combined with a desincrustation gel, a deep cleanse is performed removing dead skin cells and impurities leaving the skin fresh and clear. The polarity is then reversed in order to close the pores and firm facial tissue.
A positive galvanic current is then used to encourage deeper penetration of hydrating products. This is followed by high a frequency current which introduces oxygen to the skin improving skin colour whilst stimulating cell renewal. For those with problem skin, the treatment will reduce blemishes and heal the skin. The treatment is completed with a massage, using indirect high-frequency, followed by a mask and moisturiser.
Treatment time: 1 hour 30 minutes - £40.00

This is a very popular treatment, which may be applied directly or in directly onto the skin.
The treatment includes:
Skin analysis is followed by an initial cleanse, toning and exfoliation using Collin Paris products.
A high frequency current is then used to introduce oxygen to the skin which increases blood circulation, warms the skin which encourages healthy cell function, promotes skin healing and has a mild antiseptic drying effect making this method beneficial for the treatment of blemished skin.
Dry skin benefits from indirect high frequency as it warms the skin stimulating the sebaceous and soporiferous glands.
