In our previous blog post, we have identified the importance of using eye cream/serum and how you can choose the right eye cream to target your concern. If you have not read about it, read it here.
Before we start, let me share with you a little more about eye treatments.
An eye treatment is used to help your the area around your eyes to achieve a more lifted and hydrated look by making use of massage techniques and devices. There are a few types of Eye Treatments out there such as:
1. RF Eye Treatment
It uses pulsed magnetic fields to aid in stimulating blood circulation around the eye area and draining of toxin. This treatment provides instant effect after one session and is usually used to tackle women with concern such as fine lines, dehydrated eye area and dark circles.
2. Ultrasound Eye Treatment
It uses device which have high frequency between 800,000 Hz and 2,000,000 Hz to aid in formation of collagen and draining of toxin.You will experience a low vibration to assist deeper penetration of the eye cream that was applied into the Dermis layer. This treatment is usually used to tackle women with concern for lifting of the eye area.
3. Traditional Japanese Eye Treatment
This treatment requires no device or machine. It is the traditional way where the beautician focuses on massage techniques to assist in stimulating blood circulation and draining of toxin. This would be perfect for women who is not into doing eye treatment using machines or devices.
P.S: Eye treatment is usually done together with a facial session to achieve a holistic pampering facial experience.
Let’s now a comparison between the three different treatment.
