Where should high frequency treatment ideally begin?

High frequency treatment ideally begins on the chin for a few key reasons. Starting in this area allows the esthetician to focus on common problem zones such as excess oil production, acne, or enlarged pores, which are frequently more pronounced here. Initiating treatment on the chin also sets a solid foundation for effective treatment movement toward other areas of the face, ensuring consistent application and optimal results across the entire treatment area.

Additionally, starting on the chin helps the practitioner gauge the client’s skin response to the high frequency current. This approach allows for adjustments to be made early in the treatment, enhancing safety and comfort throughout the remaining procedure. Progressing from the chin to other areas like the cheeks, forehead, and nose can create a systematic flow, ensuring no area is neglected during the treatment.
