The Environ Skin Brightening facial involves a cleanse and tone, followed by a 10 minute lactic acid peel using a galvanic current.� Using the current in this way softens the skin and gives a deep clean by saponification of the sebum in the pores, the by-products of which are excreted by the skin naturally.� The current is applied by using a gauze mask and a neck and shoulder massage is administered during this time.� This stage is followed by any extractions, if need be.
Following this, a layer of vitamin A treatment gel is applied to the face, neck and eye area, and either the gauze mask is reapplied or an alginate mask, depending on an individual��s needs.� The current is reapplied on the opposite polarity (iontophoresis), which forces the ionised vitamin A past the skin's barrier into the deeper layers of the epidermis where it does its work.� Either a neck and shoulder or hand/arm massage will be done at this point and when the mask is removed the facial is completed with a face massage.
The benefits of this facial will be in deep cleansing and hydrating the skin, resulting in a glowing complexion. It complements the Ionzyme Facial as a maintainence and also post facial surgery to deep clean and to remove dead skin cells accummulated post surgery.��
