The High-Frequency Facial: The Secret to Clearer, Healthier Skin

If you’re looking for a facial that helps clear up acne, reduce fine lines, and boost your skin’s glow, a high-frequency facial might be exactly what you need. This simple yet powerful treatment has been used by skincare professionals for years, and it’s a favorite for those looking to achieve clearer, healthier skin.

What Is a High-Frequency Facial?

A high-frequency facial is a non-invasive skincare treatment that uses a small, handheld device that emits a gentle electrical current. This current produces oxygen, which helps kill acne-causing bacteria, reduce inflammation, and stimulate collagen production. The result? Clearer skin, reduced breakouts, and a youthful glow.

It’s a safe and effective treatment suitable for most skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin. The best part? It’s completely painless, with most people describing the sensation as a mild, tingling warmth.

How Does High Frequency Work?

The high-frequency wand has a glass electrode that is filled with either neon or argon gas. When placed on the skin, the current creates a reaction that benefits your skin in different ways:

• Acne & Breakouts: High frequency generates oxygen, which kills acne-causing bacteria and helps dry out active pimples.
• Anti-Aging & Fine Lines: The electrical current stimulates collagen and elastin production, making skin appear firmer and more youthful.
• Improved Circulation: The treatment increases blood flow, bringing more oxygen and nutrients to your skin for a brighter complexion.
• Puffiness & Dark Circles: It helps drain excess fluid and reduces under-eye bags and puffiness.
• Scalp Health & Hair Growth: Yes, high frequency can even be used on your scalp! It improves blood circulation, which can promote hair growth and improve overall scalp health.

What to Expect During a High-Frequency Facial

A high-frequency facial is a quick and easy treatment that usually lasts 15-20 minutes and can be added to many facial treatments as a spot treatment. Here’s what typically happens during your session:

1. Double Cleansing – Your skin will be cleansed to remove any makeup, oil, and impurities.
2. Metal Removal – Before the treatment begins, please remove all metal accessories from your upper body, including nose and ear piercings.
3. High-Frequency Wand Application – The glass electrode will be glided across your skin, sometimes directly or over a masque or gauze. You may feel a slight buzzing or tingling sensation.
4. Serums & Moisturizers – After the treatment, your skin is primed for better absorption of skincare products. A hydrating serum and moisturizer will be applied.
5. Sunscreen – Broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30-50) is essential. We highly recommend mineral sunscreen in most cases to protect and soothe the skin.

Who Can Benefit from a High-Frequency Facial?

Almost anyone can benefit from high-frequency facials, but they are especially helpful if you struggle with:

• Acne & breakouts
• Oily skin & enlarged pores
• Fine lines & wrinkles
• Dull, tired-looking skin
• Under-eye bags & puffiness
• Mild scars or pigmentation

However, if you are pregnant, have a pacemaker, or any metal implants, this treatment may not be suitable for you. Always check with your skincare professional if you have concerns.

How Often Should You Get a High-Frequency Facial?

For best results, you can get a high-frequency treatment once a week if you’re targeting acne or breakouts. For anti-aging benefits and general skin maintenance, once a month is ideal.

Pairing High Frequency with Homecare

At Vita Felice Medi Spa, we believe in the 80/20 rule for skincare – 80% of your results come from your home routine, and 20% come from professional treatments. To maximize the effects of a high-frequency facial, we recommend using:

• A cleanser to keep your skin clean and free of makeup and debris.
• An exfoliant to improve cell turnover and remove the buildup of dead skin cells.
• A treatment serum with peptides, niacinamide, CBD, vitamin C, or tyrosinase inhibitors  to nourish and treat the skin.
• A non-comedogenic moisturizer to maintain balance.
• Broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30-50), preferably mineral-based, to protect your skin from UV damage.
