The general effect will be an overall toning and revitalizing of the skin. Facials although associated with women are increasingly becoming popular with men.

Some facial treatments involve the use of machinery. For example some spas use a microcurrent device to smooth out wrinkles and tone up facial muscles and improve the complexion. This can be used around the forehead, eyes, cheeks and neck. Some treatments using microcurrents are referred to as a non-surgical facelift, where the aim again is to tone up the facial muscles and these can also be offered to tone up other parts of the body like the breasts and buttocks.

Not all facelift treatments involve machinery. An Indian facelift uses the hands to massage the skin with the benefits of improving circulation and muscle tone and generally relieving stress. This may come with other treatments like a skin peel and aspects of a general facial.
