Eye Care: The Kinds of Eye Treatments

Our previous blog post identified the importance of using eye cream/serum and how to choose the correct eye cream to target your concern. Before we start, let me share a little more about eye treatments with you.

An eye treatment is used to help the area around your eyes achieve a more lifted and hydrated look by using massage techniques and devices. There are a few types of treatments out there, such as:

1. RF Eye Treatment

It uses pulsed magnetic fields to stimulate blood circulation around the eye area and drain toxins. This treatment provides instant effect after one session and is usually used to tackle women with concerns such as fine lines, dehydrated eye area and dark circles.

2. Ultrasound Eye Treatment


It uses devices with high frequencies between 800,000 Hz and 2,000,000 Hz to aid in forming collagen and draining toxins. You will experience a low vibration to assist deeper penetration of the eye cream that was applied into the Dermis layer. This treatment is usually used to tackle women concerned about lifting the eye area.

3. Traditional Japanese Eye Treatment

This treatment requires no device or machine. It is the traditional way for the beautician to focus on massage techniques to stimulate blood circulation and drain toxins. This would be perfect for women who are not into using machines or devices to treat their eyes. This type of treatment is usually done together with a facial session to achieve a holistic pampering facial experience.

Let’s now make a comparison between the three different treatments.

Important: Getting a consultation before any treatments you get done on your face is essential to allow the beautician to understand your areas of concern better and what you aim to achieve.

So, which is more important, eye cream/serum vs. eye treatment? The answer would be that both are equally important. Both work hand in hand to help you achieve an even better result, so you won’t have to worry about concealing your dark circles. Ikeda Spa offers all three treatments using different techniques and technologies.
