Facial cleansing/OxyGeneo

What is facial cleansing /Oxygénéo?

True old-fashioned facial cleansing cleanses, regulates and stabilizes the sebaceous glands on the skin of the face and neck. Through its mechanical action, it also gently removes blackheads without leaving a trace, especially those that are not sensitive to other techniques.

OxyGénéo technology offers five treatments with exclusive ingredients to meet all skin needs. It exfoliates the top layer of skin to remove dead cells, dilate clogged pores, renew skin tissue and smooth the skin's surface. It then mobilizes the body's natural processes to oxygenate the skin from within, resulting in increased cellular activity. At the same time, OxyGénéo infuses the skin with nutrients, vitamins and selected active ingredients to nourish the skin and promote healthier, smoother skin.

How does our cosmetic clinic do it?

The Facial Cleansing protocol begins with make-up removal, exfoliation and the traditional antiseptic ozone steam bath to open pores. At this stage, depending on the skin's needs, the practitioner locates non-inflammatory microcysts (not purulent, not recently scratched), carefully disinfects and very delicately incises all the microcyst tips with a needle, then either with a curette or manually, forces out the cystic contents. These contents are usually a slightly hardened "sebum ball". Once all the microcysts have been extracted, the practitioner again disinfects the skin and massages with a high-frequency probe with healing and anti-inflammatory properties to calm the skin before applying the clay mask. At the end, a serum and cream are applied to deeply moisturize the skin.

Treatment with OxyGénéo technology uses applicators connected to the machine. The practitioner cleanses the skin with a mild soap and water, then dries it completely.
1st phase: he applies a gel to pass over the radio frequency applicator to warm up the skin.
2nd phase: the practitioner uses another applicator where he places a capsule of ingredients chosen according to the client's prior skin assessment on the tip. The applicator is passed over the entire area very slowly to allow the skin to oxygenate from the inside.
3rd phase: A serum is applied to the area, then the ultrasound applicator is passed over it. The final phase may be a massage session. Moisturizer and sun cream are applied at the end of the treatment.

The benefits of this facial cleansing method

The most obvious benefit of facial cleansing is that it treats blackheads and acne by eliminating micro-cysts and tightening pores.
OxyGénéo is a 3-in-1 facial that improves your skin's health with immediate results after the first treatment. The ingredients are formulated to avoid allergic reactions and are suitable for sensitive skin.
These treatments improve the skin's ability to retain water and stimulate blood circulation, leaving it nourished, supple and healthy.

Advice from our Cosmetics Clinic:

BEFORE: In general, no preparation is necessary. However, for mechanical extraction, it's best to avoid the sun in the month preceding the procedure to avoid pigmentary rebound (appearance of new brown spots). You will therefore need to apply a minimum 30+ or even 50+ sun cream during the day.
‍
DURING: This treatment lasts between 30-45 minutes. Skin cleansing is unpleasant but not painful. An anaesthetic cream is therefore not necessary.
OxyGénéo is a soothing, relaxing treatment, a moment of relaxation for the customer.
‍
AFTER: No real social eviction to be expected. In some cases, skin cleansing must be followed by chemical peels. Make-up is discouraged immediately after and in the 12 hours following the treatment.
Sun and UV rays are contraindicated for at least one month following the last treatment.
‍
FOLLOW-UP: For mechanical cleansing: Possibility of redness, itching or slight tingling with "mosquito bite"-type surface irregularities for a few hours.
For OxyGénéo: Skin will look radiant immediately after treatment.

The results you can expect from our cosmetic clinic:

After cleansing, the skin is clearer and softer. In general, depending on the quantity of microcysts present and their inflammatory state, 1 to 3 sessions spaced 15 days apart are required to achieve results that last over time.
The OxyGénéo effect is cumulative, so the more treatments you carry out, the longer the results will last.
Cosmetological and nutritional support can be provided.
Skin cleansing and OxyGénéo can be carried out alone or in combination with other treatments, to restore healthy skin.
Expected results may vary according to the individual.
