Aim of this lesson:- To perform Ultra Visage Non Surgical face lift

By the end of this lesson you will be able to:- To define micro current To state the benefits of Carlton Ultra visage NSFL To list contra indications to the treatment To Explain grab, slide and glide To demonstrate Ultra Visage NSFL To identify appropriate home and aftercare advise

Micro current

Used in the USA for over twenty years in the rehabilitation of stroke patients

Micro current uses a microamp ( 1000 microamps to a milliamp

Modified galvanic current The current is interrupted causing it to behave like a

faradic current, therefore combining the brightening effects of galvanic with the toning effects of faradic

Micro current treatments must be sold to the client as a commitment. A course of 10 – 12 treatments in a facial twice a week with the course being repeated twice a year and a maintained programme of monthly facials

Contra indications

Lack of skin sensitivity Cuts & abrasions Metal pins & plates Excessive fillings Hypersensitive skin Highly nervous clients Migraine suffers Epilepsy Diabetes Pregnancy High or low blood pressure Retin A users Botox or Collagen fillers

Procedure

Cleanse – desincrustation gel Circulation – brisk movements Lymph drainage – to the facial nodes Lifting stage 1 – grab, slide & glide Lifting stage 2 – reinforce areas of

importance Ionto – ionto galvanic gel Ph balance – ionto galvanic gel

Probing techniques

GRAB – One probe is stationary, grab and lift the muscle

SLIDE – Both probes stationary at the bulk of the muscle and both probes move away from each other ( stretching it to relax it)

GLIDE – One probe is stationary, the other probe moves towards it in a gliding movement ( to shorten the muscle) or moves away with a gliding movement ( to stretch it)

Lifting stage 1- Platysma – glide Platysma – grab Mentalis – slide Risorius – grab & slide Orbicularis Oris – slide Zygomatic – grab Quadratus (by nasal fold)- grab Canine – grab Orbicularis Oculi – Glide Orbicularis Oculi – Glide Corrugator – Grab
