3. Getting to know your instrument

The ionic facial sauna Ionic Sauna offers the perfect basis for facial beauty treatment. The skin on
your face is optimally prepared for further treatments, such as deep cleansing, face masks etc.
At beauty salons, the professionals often begin facial treatments with a steam treatment. The
steam stimulates blood circulation and opens pores, allowing impurities to be removed more
easily.
This creates the perfect starting point for all types of facial care. Because the pores are open, they
allow the beauty products to penetrate deep into the skin and optimise their effectiveness.
Furthermore, the Ionic Sauna ionic facial sauna features an integrated ion generator, which
enriches the emitted water molecules with ions, making the steam even finer. Ions therefore result
in hydration of the face that penetrates even deeper, creating a smoother top layer of skin and
improving the structure of the dermal tissue.
