Electric Facial Treatment
(Original Title: 電氣摩面)
After experiencing persistent skin issues, I decided to visit a skincare specialist. The physician recommended an electric facial treatment, a procedure involving meticulous exfoliation and rejuvenation of the skin’s surface. Despite my skepticism, the treatment was unexpectedly invigorating. During the session, as precision instruments gently worked on my face, layers of stress and lingering bacteria seemed to vanish. This innovative approach, combining medical insight with modern technology, afforded me noticeable relief. My skin felt revitalized and brighter, and the improvement transformed not just my appearance but also my confidence. Such treatments, once a novelty, have begun attracting more attention for their health benefits.
