Ultrasonic Facial Procedure
Step 1: Cleansing
The first step in an ultrasonic facial is the cleansing of the skin. This helps remove makeup, dirt, and other impurities from the skin's surface.
Step 2: Exfoliation
Next, the esthetician uses an ultrasonic device that emits low-frequency sound waves to exfoliate the top layer of dead skin cells. This reveals smoother and healthier skin beneath.
Step 3: Extraction (Optional)
In some cases, an extraction step may be included, where the ultrasonic device with a spatula-like attachment is used to remove blackheads and whiteheads by loosening and dislodging them.
Step 4: Infusion
After exfoliation, the ultrasonic waves are used to enhance the penetration of serums, moisturizers, and other skincare products into the deeper layers of the skin. This improves the absorption of beneficial ingredients.
Step 5: Skin Tightening and Toning
Lastly, the ultrasonic waves can be utilized to stimulate collagen production, which helps improve skin firmness and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Ultrasonic facials offer deep cleansing, gentle exfoliation, pore cleansing, enhanced product absorption, skin rejuvenation, and are non-invasive with no downtime. They are an effective option for achieving smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
