The Benefits of High Frequency for Your SKN: In-Clinic & At-Home Treatments
Welcome back to the phnxWellness, where we dive into all things SKNcare & wellness! Today, we're excited to explore the world of high frequency treatments and the myriad benefits it offers for every skin type, from dry to oily, and even for those dealing with specific skin conditions. Whether you're enjoying a professional facial or using a high frequency device at home, this powerful tool can be a game-changer for your skin.
What is High Frequency?
High frequency is a skincare treatment that utilizes low-current, high-frequency electrical currents to enhance your skin's appearance and health. This non-invasive treatment has been a staple in skincare routines for decades, known for its ability to treat and prevent a variety of skin issues.
Benefits for All SKN Types
Dry Skin: High frequency can help to increase blood circulation and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. This results in improved hydration and a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, making it ideal for those with dry, mature skin.
Normal Skin: For those with normal skin, high frequency treatments maintain skin health by enhancing product absorption, promoting a healthy glow, and ensuring balanced moisture levels.
Oily and Acne-Prone Skin: High frequency is particularly beneficial for oily and acne-prone skin. It has an antibacterial effect that helps to kill acne-causing bacteria, reduce inflammation, and minimize the appearance of pores. The treatment can also regulate sebum production, preventing future breakouts.
Benefits for Specific SKN Conditions
Acne: High frequency is a powerful tool in the fight against acne. It’s antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties help to clear existing blemishes, reduce redness, and prevent future breakouts. It's effective on all types of acne, from mild to cystic.
Cold Sores: The use of high frequency can accelerate the healing of cold sores. The treatment's antibacterial effect helps to destroy the herpes simplex virus responsible for cold sores, reducing their duration and severity.
Seborrheic Dermatitis and Malassezia Overgrowth: High frequency can assist in treating seborrheic dermatitis and conditions related to the overgrowth of malassezia, such as fungal acne. The treatment helps to reduce the inflammation and flakiness associated with seborrheic dermatitis. Its antimicrobial properties target malassezia, helping to control and reduce the overgrowth that causes these skin issues.
Fungal Acne: High frequency treatments can be particularly beneficial for fungal acne, which is caused by an overgrowth of yeast on the skin. The treatment's ability to kill yeast and bacteria helps to clear fungal acne and prevent future outbreaks.
Rosacea and Sensitive Skin: While those with rosacea or highly sensitive skin should approach high frequency with caution, gentle use can help reduce inflammation and soothe the skin. Always consult with a skincare professional before starting high frequency treatments if you have these conditions.
Mature Skin: High frequency treatments are excellent for mature skin. They stimulate blood flow, enhance collagen production, and improve skin elasticity, resulting in a firmer, more youthful complexion.

How to Use High Frequency at Home
Using a high frequency device at home can be a convenient way to maintain your skincare routine between professional treatments. Here are some tips for safe and effective use:
Cleanse Your Skin: Start with a clean face to remove any makeup, oil, and impurities.
Apply a Serum or Moisturizer: This helps the high frequency wand to glide smoothly over your skin.
Use the Device: Follow the instructions provided with your high frequency device. Typically, you will gently glide the electrode over your skin in circular motions for about 5-10 minutes.
Moisturize: After the treatment, apply your favorite moisturizer to lock in hydration.
