Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a substance found naturally
in most every cell in the body. Its function is, among other things, to bind
water and to lubricate movable parts of the body, such as joints and muscles.
It is found in the greatest
concentrations in the skin tissue. Almost 50% of the bodies HA is found here.
It is found in both the deep underlying dermal areas as well as the visible
epidermal top layers. Young skin is smooth and elastic and contains large
amounts of HA that helps keep the skin stay young and healthy. The HA provides
continuous moisture to the skin by binding up to 1000 times its weight in
water. With age, the ability of the skin to produce HA decreases leaving the skin
unhealthy and wrinkled.
Hyaluronic acid is one of the most hydrophilic (water-loving) molecules in
nature and can be described as "nature's moisturizer". Its
consistency and tissue-friendliness allows it to be used in skin-care products
as an excellent moisturizer.
Galvanic Spa II is a patent pending, hand-held
device that uses a self-adjusting low-level galvanic (electric) current to
facilitate the transport of key ingredients into the skin for improved
cleansing, hydration, circulation, and radiance.
The gentle massaging action of each of the 4 attachments ( face, body, and hair
treatment) combined with the galvanic current enhances circulation and draws
vital nutrients to the outer layers of the skin.
Studies have shown that a Galvanic Spa II treatment may enhance active
ingredient delivery up to 70% or more for up to 24 hours afterward.
