What is Microcurrent? March 8, 2023

In the world of beauty, new and exciting discoveries are always happening. Everyday researchers are discovering more ways to combat aging and make us look and feel younger. In the world of esthetics one of those new discoveries involves something called “microcurrent”. But what is Microcurrent and how does it help our skin?

Microcurrent is a non-invasive treatment that involves low levels of electrical current that mimics the human body’s natural current. This service tones the muscles of the face, increases the production of collagen, elastin, and blood circulation. This will make the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles reduce dramatically. The electrical current re-programs the muscles in the face, somewhat giving them a “workout.”

Microcurrent is also wonderful for helping the penetration of products and serums by offering iontophoresis. This helps the skin utilize all the products you are using on your skin. Microcurrent is a wonderful alternative to invasive procedures such as botox, fillers and face lifts.
This is one of the many things our students at TSPA Rapid City learn in their esthetics course. Training the students on the benefits, protocols and contraindications are important to produce the best estheticians we can.
