🔬 Understanding the science behind RF, Microcurrent & LED

RF delivers heat deep into dermis to boost collagen. Microcurrent mimics bioelectricity to lift muscles. LED light (red, NIR, blue) calms, heals, and brightens. Each tech targets a different layer—dermis, muscle, epidermis—creating a 360° anti-aging routine.

✨ Why combining technologies enhances results

Using RF, microcurrent, and LED together supports skin recovery and multiplies results. RF builds firmness, microcurrent sculpts, LED reduces inflammation. Balance and sequencing prevent overuse while amplifying glow.

📅 Weekly Schedule Blueprint

• Monday: RF (kickstart collagen)
• Tuesday: LED (reduce inflammation)
• Wednesday: Microcurrent (lift & tone)
• Thursday: LED (support healing)
• Friday: RF (maintain firmness)
• Weekend: Rest or LED

📌 Ideal Order in One Session

1. RF first – deep dermal stimulation
2. Microcurrent second – muscle lift
3. LED last – calm & repair

🧭 How to Combine RF & Microcurrent in One Routine

🧴 Best Active Ingredients to Pair

Use conductive gels with peptides or hyaluronic acid for RF/Microcurrent. After LED, apply barrier serums or retinol/vitamin C depending on skin tolerance.

⚠️ Safety Tips for Using Multiple Devices

• Never use on broken or inflamed skin.
• Limit RF/Microcurrent to 2–3× per week.
• Avoid oils under conductive gels.
• Don’t combine Microcurrent + Retinol in one session.
