Top Questions Asked by Customers
Q1: "Is stronger microcurrent better?"
No, stronger microcurrent is not better. You might be tempted to think that because microcurrent strengthens the facial muscles, that stronger = better. However, the facial muscles are very delicate. Overstimulating facial muscles has actually been shown to lead to the appearance of sagging skin. For the best results, staying under a 600-microamp threshold is best.
Q2: "Is it painful?"
No, microcurrent is not painful and isn't meant to be. The level of microcurrent needed for proper stimulation (under 600microamps) is too low to cause pain. While you may feel a slight sensation, it's not pain-inducing because of how little current the device produces.
Q3: "Are there side effects?"
With adequate space and timing between treatments, you should never experience any side effects after a microcurrent facial. However, you may experience some side effects if you either 1) do excessive treatments (more than 1x per day for several days in. a row) or 2) use microcurrent which is too strong. Thankfully, practically all of the microcurrent devices on the market are not strong enough to produce a current that could cause any side effects.
Debunking Microcurrent Myths
True or False: Microcurrent delivers instant results.
True! There's a catch, however. Microcurrent devices are capable of delivering instant results that you can see and feel in just one treatment. But these results don't last forever; they can AND will go away. Just like fitness, long-term results take dedication and consistency. The best part of an at-home device is that you can always start up again even if you miss a few treatments.
True or False: I don't feel anything, it must not be working.
False! Microcurrent works sub-sensory - meaning that even if you can't feel it, as long as you're applying it correctly to the face, you will experience the instant lift you're looking for.
True or False: Microcurrent routines take too long.
False! Microcurrent works sub-sensory - meaning that even if you can't feel it, as long as you're applying it correctly to the face, you will experience the instant lift you're looking for.
