Calm Breakouts and Support Clearer Skin

The High Frequency Add-On is a quick, targeted enhancement that can be added onto your facial to calm inflammation, reduce acne-causing bacteria, and support faster healing. Using an electrical current delivered through a glass electrode, this treatment creates an oxygen-rich environment on the skin, helping minimize congestion and active breakouts. It’s especially great for clients with oily, acne-prone, or stressed-out skin who need extra support.

What Are the Benefits of The High Frequency Add-On?

If your skin is feeling congested, inflamed, or breakout-prone, this quick facial enhancement can make a real difference.

Some of the biggest benefits of The High Frequency Add-On include:

  • Reduced acne-causing bacteria
  • Calmer redness and inflammation
  • Faster blemish healing support
  • Less post-extraction irritation
  • Clearer, healthier-looking skin
  • Enhanced facial treatment results
  • A quick, non-invasive skin refresh

What Happens During The High Frequency Add-On Treatment?

During your facial, your provider will use a specialized glass electrode connected to a high-frequency device after cleansing and, in many cases, extractions. The electrode delivers a mild alternating current that produces oxygenating thermal energy and a subtle germicidal effect on the skin. This targets acne-causing bacteria, reduces inflammation, minimizes excess oil, and supports circulation.

You may notice a tingling sensation and a faint buzzing or tapping sound as the electrode moves across the skin. The High Frequency Add-On is usually focused on breakout-prone or congested areas, such as the jawline, cheeks, and T-zone, and it usually takes about 10 minutes. It’s a quick yet effective facial enhancement that helps calm post-extraction redness and supports clearer skin.

The High Frequency Add On Frequently Asked Questions

Does The High Frequency Add-On hurt?

Not at all. Most clients describe the treatment as a light tingling or warming sensation across the skin. You may also hear a buzzing sound from the electrode, which is completely normal. The experience is typically very comfortable and relaxing, especially when paired with a facial.

How long does The High Frequency Add-On take?

The High Frequency Add-On usually takes about 10 minutes to perform during your facial. It’s a quick enhancement that gives breakout-prone or congested skin extra attention without adding significant time to your visit.

Can The High Frequency Add-On help acne?

Yes! This treatment is especially popular for acne-prone skin because it creates an oxygen-rich environment on the skin’s surface that acne-causing bacteria struggle to survive in. It can also help calm inflamed blemishes, reduce irritation, and support faster healing after breakouts.

Is there any downtime afterward?

For most clients, there’s little to no downtime. Your skin may look slightly pink immediately after your facial, especially if extractions were performed, but that settles quickly. Many clients leave with skin that already looks calmer, fresher, and more balanced.

How often should I get The High Frequency Add-On?

That depends on your skin goals and its condition. Some clients add it onto facials occasionally during breakout flare-ups, while others include it as part of their maintenance routine. During your consultation, we’ll help customize a treatment plan that makes sense for your skin.

Are there any risks with The High Frequency Add-On?

The High Frequency Add-On is very safe when performed properly, but mild temporary redness or sensitivity can happen, especially on reactive skin. This treatment may not be recommended for clients with certain medical conditions, implanted electrical devices, or skin sensitivities. That’s why we always review your skin concerns and medical history beforehand.

Can The High Frequency Add-On be combined with other treatments?

Absolutely. This enhancement pairs well with facials, extractions, and treatments for congested or acne-prone skin. It’s often added onto customized facial experiences to help boost clarity, calm inflammation, and support healthier-looking skin overall.
