Programme 1: FIRMING - Rhythmic 2 second muscle contractions to condition muscles with a short 3 second interval between each pulse. So, how does EMS work your face out? Low faradic currents are delivered into the skin, stimulating nerve endings and causing muscles to contract and relax at recurring intervals. This motion is what causes the toning, just as your muscles contract and relax when you do ten ab crunches. Programme 2: Tap Toning Rapid stimulating action. The pulsing massage action lasts 5 seconds followed by a 3 second pause. For best results follow the faradic facial toning regime every day for the first few weeks, alternating between programmes 1 and 2 each day. Programme 2: TAP TONING - Rapid stimulating action. The pulsing massage action lasts 5 seconds followed by a 3 second pause.There are four treatment programmes; Firming, Extended Firming, Tap Toning and Infusion.

The Galvanic Treatment uses small micro currents to carry the active ingredients for skin repair and rejuvenation deep into the skin, known as Galvanic Infusion or Iontophoresis, infusing collagen and retinol to help further combat the appearance of frown lines, crow’s feet and marionette lines. Always do a patch test with the conductive gel on an inconspicuous area of your skin 24 hours before use. If any irritation occurs do not continue treatment. Likewise if you have a skin reaction when first using the collagen and retinol patches, do not continue treatment. Is there anything I must avoid after treatment?
