24k Gold Facial

How Does 24k Gold Facial Work?

24K Gold has been used in skincare for centuries due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties which can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tones.

24k gold facial uses a thin layer of gold that is infused into the facial skin and absorbed in order to stimulate collagen production and improves the overall skin tone and texture. The treatment is non-invasive and painless. In fact, it's more soothing and relaxing as we have customized the treatment to meet your specific needs and goals – achieving superior results is our #1 priority.

Treatment

During your consultation, we will discuss your goals and tailor a treatment plan that aligns with your needs. Once we have completed your consultation, you will be asked to change into a spa gown and relax on a comfortable bed.

Cleansing and Exfoliating
The tech may place cotton pads on your eyelids while working the rest of face with cleansing cream. After freshening up with a toner, it’s time to exfoliate. Depending on the need and condition of the skin, we exfoliate with warm bubbles to cleanse the face thoroughly.

24K Gold Leaf

This next step uses pure 24K Gold Leaf sheets, which are carefully applied to cover your whole face. The gold is absorbed by the skin, putting its active ingredients into action. The use of pure Gold triggers the rebirth of your skin’s metabolism, which deeply nourishes and strengthens your skin. It also leaves you with a wonderfully radiant complexion!

Microcurrent Golden Finger massage

This face-lifting beauty treatment uses microcurrent energy to penetrate the skin tissue, heat it up, and stimulate collagen regeneration. It's used while the gold leaf is dissolving to further penetrate the skin.

Nutrition-packed face mask pack
The mask pack is different from the sheet mask experience because it’s designed to seal over the entire face, except for the nostrils (cotton pads cover and protect the eyelids). The tech will ask if it’s okay to cover the mouth. It’s elective, but lips are also a part of the face and they’ll feel noticeably moisturized afterwards if you opt in. The mask pack takes about 15 to 20 minutes of darkness, and usually, sleep.

after the treatment you may continue with your daily tasks as this is a nonivasive treatment and there's no downtime.

The Science Behind 24k Gold Facial Treatment

Gold was named “Allergen of the Year” in 2001 by the American Contact Dermatitis Society. But some dermatologists buck the trend; Dr. Paul Jarrod Frank has publicly stated that gold “is used as an anti-aging ingredient, as it can help reduce inflammation, which is a cause of acne and hyper pigmentation.”

Gold can be present in sizes ranging from visible gold flakes to microscopic particles, suspended in a liquid composite known as a colloid. Some companies have claimed that the gold flecks in their products are conducive to other metals in skin, while makers of colloidal gold products often emphasize more long-term solutions, such as tightening, firming, and anti-aging.

Two studies published in Nanotoxicology by Dr. Tatsiana Mironova have gone into detail in describing the harm that gold nanoparticles can do in the body. Her research has shown that gold has a detrimental affect on human adipose-derived stromal cells–cells often vital to tissue regeneration. Adding gold nanoparticles to these cells resulted in “increased population doubling times, decreased cell motility and cell-mediated collagen contraction.”

In plain English, the gold nanoparticles slowed down cell regeneration, decreased the ability of cells to move around to where they needed to be, and inhibited their collagen contraction, which is a vital part of the healing process. Gold was basically a Big Problem–but those problems were eliminated when the nanoparticles were removed from the cells.

If you have any experience with sheet masks this will seem obvious to you, but the science behind sitting around with a sheet of essence on your face is that the sheet prevents evaporation and also helps your skin absorb the essence much more deeply. Our skin is a protective barrier, and a great one at that; it’s tough to get it to absorb anything, as it’s made to keep things out. This is where sheet masks step in, and help our skin absorb all the lovely things we’ve bought to put on our faces. Adding a foil to the outside of the mask simply intensifies the process, making sure absolutely none of the essence evaporates and that all of it is absorbed by the skin.
