DERMATO LO-GY Update ANTHONY AULIslo, M.D. Board Certifr / [D,:r .,...z y OF CURRENT INTEREST Microcurrent therapy ("electric face-lifts") offers a way to tighten facial skin without surgery. First, the face is covered with vitamin-soaked cotton strips. Then, a mask studded with electrodes is added. Next, the facial skin is treated to a low-intensity 'electric current for about twenty minutes or so. This therapy is based on the century-old science of ion- tophoresis applying a direct current to drive substances (antioxidants, in this case) into intact skin cells to help them repair damage. It also speeds up circulation to help nourish the skin. Most importantly, the microcurrent results in an "electrical exfoliation" by causing surface skin cells to shed themselves, thereby stimulating new collagen formation underneath. This creates immediate skin-tightening, which can be maintained with monthly treatments. This therapy is a popular way for both men and women to improve their facial appearance without surgery. To find out if you are a candidate for this procedure, contact GAINESVILLE DERMATOLOGY & SKIN SURGERY at 352-332-4442 to schedule an appointment. Our office is conveniently located at 114 N.W. 76th Drive. We are accepting new patients. Hint: When new collagen forms beneath facial skin, it serves to plump up the overlaying skin layers to give a more youthful appearance to the face.
