disposable tips for maximum hygiene

5 grades of abrasion tips

unparalleled abrasion control

Face-up is an innovative and effective microdermoabrasion system that provides combined abrasion and massage.

Face-up uses a (PATENTED) hand-piece that rotates on an elliptical axis which abrades and massages the skin at the same time.

The elliptical rotation of the abrasive head removes all imperfections and impurities at any angle, leaving the skin clear and smooth.

At the same time the micropulsesmassage the skin, stimulating and toning the skin tissue, improving the circulation and making the treatment particularly relaxing for the client.

The interchangeable heads are coated with a biocompatible, anti-allergy (*)

layer of silicon carbide which gently exfoliates the superficial layers of the epidermis.

In order to ensure hygiene, cleanliness and safety, Face-up uses a variety of single-use disposable treatment tips

A specific plastic head allows cream distribution

after abrasion

Face Up treatments can be specifically tailored to the needs of each client

The orbital rotation of the circular head performs a progressive and controlled skin exfoliation.

Skin before Skin after

At the same time the micro pulsations tone the skin tissue.

Face-up can be used to get rid of or reduce skin imperfections such as skin discolouration, age spots, small wrinkles and scars, stimulating at the same time the formation of new collagen;

Results are visible after just one treatment. The complexion is clearer, smoother and the skin firmer.

Visible improvements include:

Rejuvenated skin

Increased skin thickness

Reduction of wrinkles

Peeling

Small, convenient and easy to use.

General Face Up Treatment

• Cleanse the skin thoroughly and pat dry. • Perform a “test strip” on the patient’s inner forearm to indicate what it

feels like and observe how reactive the skin is. If necessary reduce intensity or use a less abrasive treatment tip

• Set system and select appropriate abrasion tip• Follow the specific abrasive tip movements indicated in the diagram• Remember that the abrasion depth depends on the grade of abrasion

tip selected, the speed of rotation selected, the speed of movement on the skin and the pressure applied.

• If you stop the hand-piece on a particular point this will produce a deep abrasion.

• After abrasion clean the treated area with a soft brush and then rinse thoroughly with a wet facial sponge.

• Apply the hydro smoothing gel mask • Change the abrasion tip for a massage tip and set system to

appropriate speed of rotation.• Apply massage tip through the mask using light pressure following the

movements indicated in the diagram• Remove mask and apply a suitable moisturiser with SPF.• Inform the client that it is important to refrain from sun exposure and

excessive heat for 2-3 days immediately after treatments and to use a sunblock.

• The client should refrain from collagen injections, waxing, electrolysis or depilatories for at least 7 days.,

PEELING, AGING, FINE WRINKLES

• Select a light treatment (2500 rpm) and a suitable abrasion tip, to exfoliate only the superficial layers of the skin.

• Keep the hand-piece moving on the skin surface, always keeping the abrasive head in contact with the skin.

• Do not pass the hand-piece more than two consecutive times over the same area. Instead treat the whole area and then repeat theoperation, beginning from the same initial point.

• It is advised to carry out the second passage with movements perpendicular with respect to the first one.

• mask and use massage tip

• Depending on the severity of the condition a course of six to ten treatments are recommended. Treatments should be spaced one treatment per week.

• Upon completion of the treatment course clients are advised to maintain results by having a maintenance treatment on a monthly basis.

SCARS, POST-ACNE SCARS, STRETCH MARKS

– Use an intense treatment (4500 rpm) with a coarse treatment tip. It is necessary to remove the epidermis exposing the surface of the papillary dermis (punctual bleeding).

– The tissue immediately surrounding the treatment area should also be abraded.

– The treated area has to be medicated in the conventional way, using an antibiotic covering.

– According to the severity of the lesions, 10-12 treatments are necessary at an average distance of 2 weeks one from the other

– it is important to only perform a treatment after a complete healing of the previous treatment.

SKIN THICKNESS

NOTE Use lower intensity and/or select a less abrasive treatment tip in areas where the skin is thinner
