Question 1

What is galvanic facial treatment?

Accepted Answer

A galvanic facial uses a low-level direct electrical current to perform two functions in one visit: desincrustation (deep pore cleansing using negative current) and iontophoresis (enhanced serum absorption using positive current). It is non-invasive and used widely in professional skincare.

Question 2

What is iontophoresis in skincare?

Accepted Answer

Iontophoresis is a technique that uses a mild positive galvanic current to help drive water-soluble active ingredients deeper into the skin than topical application alone. It is commonly used in professional skincare to support absorption of hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and peptide serums.

Question 3

What is desincrustation?

Accepted Answer

Desincrustation uses negative galvanic current to soften and emulsify sebum and debris trapped in pores. The alkaline reaction created by the negative current helps dissolve comedones, blackheads, and hardened oil, making extractions easier and more effective while deep cleansing the skin.

Question 4

How long does a galvanic facial take?

Accepted Answer

A complete galvanic facial treatment typically takes 60-75 minutes, including cleansing, desincrustation (10-15 minutes), extractions if needed, iontophoresis (10-15 minutes), and finishing treatments with mask and moisturizer.

Question 5

Is galvanic facial safe?

Accepted Answer

Galvanic facials use a low-level direct current and are non-invasive when performed by a trained esthetician. They are not appropriate during pregnancy, or for clients with a pacemaker or other electronic implants, epilepsy, metal implants in the treatment area, or an active skin infection.

Question 6

How often should I get galvanic facial treatments?

Accepted Answer

For optimal results, we recommend galvanic facials every 3-4 weeks. This allows your skin to complete its natural renewal cycle while maintaining the cumulative benefits of enhanced product penetration and deep cleansing.

Question 7

What skin concerns does galvanic treatment address?

Accepted Answer

Galvanic facials effectively address multiple skin concerns including clogged pores, blackheads, fine lines and wrinkles, dull complexion, dehydration, uneven skin tone, acne-prone skin, and signs of aging. The dual action of desincrustation and iontophoresis provides comprehensive skin rejuvenation.
