The Shrink Mask Enzyme Mask is a powerful treatment known for stimulating the lymphatic system and promoting skin detoxification. This unique mask causes a "reverse osmosis" effect, which helps to flush out toxins and dead cells, promoting a clearer and more radiant complexion. Here’s how it works and what makes it beneficial:
-
Lymphatic Drainage Activation: The mask tightens and hardens on the skin, which boosts blood circulation and encourages lymphatic drainage. This helps to detoxify the skin by removing waste and fluid retention.
-
Increased Oxygenation: The enzyme action promotes oxygen flow, helping to nourish and rejuvenate skin cells while creating a healthy glow.
-
Collagen Production: By activating the lymphatic system and stimulating blood flow, the treatment promotes collagen synthesis, improving elasticity and reducing signs of aging.
-
Reduces Puffiness and Inflammation: Enhanced lymphatic drainage can reduce swelling and inflammation, making the skin appear more toned and contoured.
-
Deep Cleansing and Detoxification: The mask pulls impurities from the skin, unclogs pores, and minimizes the appearance of acne, blackheads, and other impurities.
The Shrink Mask Enzyme Mask is often called a "skin workout" because of its deep effects on the skin's health, targeting various concerns and offering a refreshed, rejuvenated look.
Basic Instructions:
-
Apply Shrink Mask: On cleansed skin, apply an even layer of the Shrink Mask. Leave it on for 10-15 minutes.
-

Frequently Asked Questions:
What should I expect from my treatment?
Shrink Mask treatments are very different from traditional facials. The treatment area will be thoroughly cleansed and exfoliated before the Shrink Mask enzyme mask is applied to the face, neck, and décolletage. The mask will harden completely and sit on the skin for around 15-20 minutes, allowing the cosmeceutical enzymes and botanicals to work their magic. The treatment creates a 'reverse osmosis' action a back-flushing effect that forces fluid through the membranes around the cells, flushing out impurities. You’ll be left with a clean, clear, and healthy environment for cells to thrive and function at their optimal level.
Are there any side effects?
Redness from the treatment can last around 15-30 minutes. Other side effects are rare but may include irritation, itching, swelling, or temporary hyperpigmentation. Slight peeling or dryness may occur for up to 72 hours post-treatment, although this is uncommon.
How many sessions are needed?
This depends on the condition of the skin being treated. Typically, a course of 3-6 sessions is recommended, and results can be noticeable from the first treatment. Treatments are generally spaced at 4-week intervals, or longer for a follow-up treatment.
What should I do after treatment?
Keep the area dry and clean for the rest of the day. Avoid using harsh products on the skin for at least 72 hours, such as exfoliating products. Make-up should be avoided for 24 hours, and you must stay out of the sun for 72 hours. Stick to using the products recommended by your therapist for the best results.
