Although, exfoliation is considered as one of the most important part of a skin care regimen to resolve certain skin problems as well as to achieve healthy and glowing skin, finding the balance between not enough of exfoliation and over-exfoliation can be challenging.

Throughout our many years working with clients our team frequently finds that we either don’t exfoliate enough or we overdo it leading to the unwanted side effects in both cases.

There are multiple ways to exfoliate our skin; ultrasound or ultrasonic exfoliation is one great way to freshen up the complexion without redness or irritation.

What is ultrasound exfolation?

It refers to a handheld small device with flat metal end (spatula) that utilizes ultrasound to exfoliate the skin. The vibrations created by ultrasonic waves help loosen up dead skin cells and remove oil, dirt and other cellular debris from pores resulting in less blackheads + breakouts, and a a noticeably more radiant, healthy skin.

How does it work?

With a frequency rate of 30,000 Hz per second the technology helps to gently, but effectively exfoliate the skin without causing discomfort or pain.

Who is the right candidate?

Everyone can benefit from it. The process is gentle, comfortable and can be even used on sensitive skin, and on clients with Rosacea.

What are the benefits?

1. Removes dead, dry, flaky skin

   Dry skin gets flaky with time and peels off leaving your skin cells damaged and not allowing new skin cells to regenerate. The best way to deal with flaky, dull skin without hurting the fragile skin barrier is using non-abrasive products and tools like the ultrasonic skin spatula.

   The vibrating waves get rid of dead skin cells to stimulate skin cell renewal, so the skin feels smoother and healthier. Removal of flaky skin also promotes long-term skin health.

2. Removes and prevents blackheads

   Blackheads are caused by a build-up of dead skin cells, excess sebum and dirt that block pores. When the build-up oxidizes, it turns black creating the appearance of blackheads. Extracting blackheads is usually a challenging task and can even be uncomfortable. Using an ultrasonic skin scrubber to exfoliate and soften the skin will make sure your pores are clean and unclogged.

3. Evens Skin Tone

   Dark spots, hyperpigmentation and acne scars are common skin concerns caused by several factors, including sun damage and acne. Exfoliating the skin with the ultrasonic skin spatula breaks down dead skin cells making skin tone appear more even and brighter.

4. Removes Excess Sebum

   Oily skin produces excess sebum, leading to skin conditions like blackheads, acne, and other skin issues. The scrubber removes excess oil from pores and prevents the overproduction of sebum. Ultrasonic skin spatulas help to unclog pores by removing excess sebum without drying the skin, making it feel smooth, and fresh.

5. Reduces Acne Breakouts

   Acne can spread when a pimple pops and the inflammation spreads to the surrounding area of the face leading to more acne – a repeat process that is difficult to control. However, an ultrasonic skin scrubber can help to solve this issue. The vibrations in the scrubber stimulate the lymphatic drainage and remove any underlying toxins that may cause recurring acne. 

6. Enhances Absorption

   Exfoliating the skin unclogs pores and removes the layer of dead skin cells and debris, allowing nutrients to penetrate more efficiently, deeper into the skin and work more effectively.

7. Improves Blood Flow

   Aside from enhancing absorption, the soft vibrations also stimulate blood flow that can help the skin to produce more collagen and elastin. By gently gliding the ultrasonic skin spatula across the face the cells are oxygenated, and your skin is healthy from the inside to the outside. Using the spatula also ensures normal skin cells’ detoxification necessary for flawless and toned skin.
