What the add-on does
High frequency Heal is offered strictly as an add-on to other treatments and is designed to assist acne-prone and inflamed skin by reducing surface bacteria and calming visible inflammation. It is also used on the under-eye area to address puffiness and inflammation that can contribute to dark circles, supporting the work of a primary facial.
Results depend on the surrounding treatment plan and skin condition; this add-on complements cleansing, extraction, or corrective facials rather than replacing them. The service is priced and timed to be a short targeted boost—$17 for a 15 minute application—so it’s best chosen when you want a specific, localized effect added to a main session.
What to expect during treatment
During the 15 minute add-on a trained provider applies the high frequency tool to targeted areas identified during your main service. Expect focused, short-duration application to breakouts or under-eye inflammation. Many clients report a brief warming or tingling sensation; your esthetician will adjust placement and duration to suit sensitive areas like under the eyes.
Because this service is an add-on, it’s scheduled alongside another appointment. Glow Skin Care’s downtown Santa Rosa location—convenient to Courthouse Square and Railroad Square—offers early-morning, lunchtime, and evening blocks to fit commuters and visitors who want a quick, targeted improvement before or after other activities.
Timing and seasonal use
Clients add this treatment year-round but demand peaks in Jan, Aug, Sep, and Dec when seasonal acne flares or holiday stress make breakouts more common. Local conditions such as Santa Rosa’s warm, dry summers and occasional wildfire smoke can increase skin sensitivity and inflammation, so many people choose this add-on during those high-risk periods.
Because High frequency Heal is an add-on, consider the trade-off between a single short application and a series of combined treatments. This add-on can accelerate calming and bacterial reduction in conjunction with a facial, but outcomes vary by skin type and homecare, so discuss a plan with your esthetician rather than expecting a one-time fix.
