JAKARTA - In maintaining skin health, there are various things that can be done, such as invasive and non-invasive skin care. Invasive treatment involves surgical procedures or skin penetration, while non-invasive care does not involve surgery and tends to be safer.

Regarding non-invasive skin care, it can usually be used alone at home. Some of the popular non-invasive skincare tools are microcurrent, LED light therapy, and ultrasonic scambers.

Quoted from Cosmopolitan, on Wednesday, July 30, microcurrents are a tool that uses low-electric currents to stimulate facial muscles, increase blood circulation, and stimulate collagen production.

LED light therapy uses LED light waves to overcome certain skin problems. Then ultrasonic scamber uses ultrasonic vibrations to clean the skin deeply and remove dead skin cells.

A dermatologist, dr. Claudia Christin, MBBS, said the use of non-invasive skincare tools is very good for preventing various skin problems that may arise. The use of non-invasive tools can be a further step towards the use of various skincare products every day at home.

"These non-invasive tools are really good for friends who want to take the form of prevention (skin problems), or for example, overcome fine wrinkles, or who want to step up again our skincare," said Doctor Claudia, when met in the Kota Kasablanka area, some time ago.

"Because with skincare products whose content is already advanced, good, accompanied by tools, it can make skincare more effective on the skin," he added.

However, in its use, Claudia also reminded not to be too high-expected to get treatment results such as at the clinic. It is also necessary to keep in mind that non-invasive skincare equipment cannot be used as a solution to overcome severe facial skin problems.

"We have to set our expectations right, of course, with products that use at home care," he said.

"Of course, according to skin conditions, what if it goes into cases that look like a bopeng or acne scars are very deep, old age, and deep wrinkles, it certainly requires intensive and invasive care through the clinic," Claudia concluded.
