II Non Surgical Facial Toning
-The Bio-Electric Face Toner-
At her facial
clinic on Lexington Avenue, just a stone 's throw from Bloomingdale's, Dr.
Elyse clientele. Her secret is a new electronic device called IMAGE
II, a breakthrough in facial revitalization. It can not only correct
wrinkles and sags, but prevent them as well.
Until
recently, the product of space technology has been used only in selected
clinics in the United States and Europe. But now, through the initiative
of the International Health Foundation, the Image II is being made
available to the general public, giving the
"not-so-rich-and-famous" the possibility of a more youthful
appearance.
Despite
the many myths about wrinkling of the skin, the primary culprit is
atrophication and weakening of facial muscles. A loss of conditioning by
these muscles enables the skin to slacken and form the customary bags and
furrows of the aging face. Treatments by the IMAGE II add firmness to the
facial muscles, while increasing circulation to the area, stimulating the
natural production of collagen, and measurably improving the health and
tone of the skin.
The IMAGE II
must not be confused with acupuncture or laser devices, muscle stimulation
machines or other antiquated electronic instruments. Using a very weak
electrical current-about one hundredth of the current used to power a
pacemaker-the IMAGE II helps to regenerate cells. stimulating the natural
repair of tissue damaged by acne, overexposure to the sun, scarring or
other factors.
The procedure
is ultra-safe, and since it involves no penetration of the skin, there is
no pain whatsoever. The only sensations are from a cotton swab moving
firmly over the facial muscles and from gentle flutters during the line
erasure and tissue repair cycles.
The number of
treatments will depend on the variables of skin condition, type, age and
other factors. As a rule, ten to twelve treatments are needed to
recondition the muscle tissue, and the results of the treatment will last
from two to five years, with only occasional maintenance treatments needed
thereafter.
"It is a
quick, easy way to restore youthful, healthy skin." says Carlotta K
Jacobson, Beauty Editor (Harpers Bazaar).
It won't make
grandmother look like she's ready for the prom, but she will look a lot
younger than she did!
