How the technique works
High frequency uses targeted thermal energy applied to specific skin areas to address acne, fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, cellulite, and undereye circles. The method focuses on localized warming and stimulation rather than full-face resurfacing, so estheticians target individual concerns during the short add-on session.
At Spa Apsara your esthetician adapts the application to the area being treated. This is a focused modality: expect attention to the specific concern rather than a broad facial protocol. The service is offered as a 15 MINUTES add-on so it supplements other treatments or standalone touch-ups priced at $25.
When to add this treatment
Clients in Fircrest and nearby Tacoma areas commonly choose this add-on when they want a quick, targeted step during a longer appointment or before local activities like a walk at Chambers Bay. Because it’s brief, it fits early-morning, evening, or weekend schedules that suit commuters traveling SR-16 or parents balancing family time.
The trade-off is focus versus breadth: a short high frequency session addresses isolated concerns efficiently but is not a replacement for a full multi-step facial. Your esthetician will recommend whether combining this $25, 15 MINUTES add-on with other services is the best approach for your skin goals.
Preparing and aftercare
Preparation is simple: arrive with clean skin or allow time for a cleanser at the spa so your esthetician can assess the exact area to treat. Be ready to discuss any skin sensitivities, topical medications, or recent procedures—this helps your provider adjust application and avoid irritation.
Aftercare instructions are brief and practical. Follow the esthetician’s guidance about gentle cleansing and avoiding aggressive exfoliation immediately after treatment. If you have unusual tenderness or prolonged redness, contact Spa Apsara; otherwise most clients resume normal activities and can pair the service with local plans like shopping on Bridgeport Way.
