– crash dieting Internal toxins – cigarette smoke, drugs, alchohol,
caffeine, medications Pollution Incorrect skin care routine – not removing make-up Ill health / stress

The skin’s growth and repair process slows
down therefore giving the skin a patchy,
pigmented appearance and a slower healing
rate. Skin loses it’s moisture and the texture
becomes drier as sweat and sebaceous
activity also slows down. Skin becomes thinner and fine lines and
expression lines appear.

Facial contours drop as the skin’s underlying
supportive structures become less elastic
(collagen and elastin fibres in the dermis) and
muscle tissue drops with gravity and atrophies. Adipose cells become re-distributed and
contours of the face appear sharper. Hair loses it’s colour and grows coarse and wiry. Moles and fibrous growths may develop which
are often pigmented

General Effects:
Stimulation of celluler functioning of epidermal and dermal layers
Improved blood circulation (increases oxygen and nutrients to skin’s cells)
Improved lymphatic circulation – speeds up the removal of waste and toxins
Shortening of muscles and improvement in tone

Anatomy & Physiology Cells degenerate with ageing Reduced nutrients and oxygen Cell metabolism slows down MC stimulates cell metabolism and increases
the permeability of cell membranes Aids movement of materials in and out of cells MC stimulates muscle fibres Low intensity does not cause visible muscle
