Rio PROLIFT Manual Del Usuario página 4

Practised for over 40 years in beauty salons, faradic facial toning uses EMS (Electro-Muscle Stimulation) to activate the nerves
which control the facial muscles. The pulses gently contract and relax the facial muscles to help tone, lift and tighten. The pulses
generated mimic natural nerve signals to exercise the facial muscles. This stimulation also increases local circulation, bringing
more oxygen to the skin cells and encourages the removal of toxins from the skin, to leave the skin feeling refreshed and
rejuvenated. The main muscles that your Rio PROLIFT will work are shown below.
