gives your skin the needed
advantage of advanced skin
care.
Advanced Need: Revitalize
Fatigue and stress can make the skin appear dull and

lifeless. The essential step revitalize helps restore


vibrancy by increasing circulation to the skin. The

Spa Results at Home

 Clients who have a


professional galvanic
treatment may spend
from to $90 to $200 per
treatment. These
treatments may be
done once or twice a
month, making it a very
expensive, infrequent,
and inconvenient way
to get the benefits of
galvanic treatment.

Introducing Nu Skin® Galvanic Spa™ II
System
The exclusive Galvanic Spa System
II from Nu Skin is a programmable
device with patented self-adjusting
galvanic current and
interchangeable heads for the face,
scalp, and body.
The Galvanic Spa works

synergistically with specially


formulated products to facilitate
transport of key ingredients—
delivering revitalizing, restorative,
and rejuvenating benefits.
Nu Skin Galvanic Spa System brings

all of the benefits of a spa galvanic


treatment into the ease and comfort

History of Galvanic Current
The History of Galvanic Currents

 In 1791, Luigi Galvani was the


first to use electric currents for
health benefits.

 The galvanic current, used


today for cosmetic purposes to
facilitate delivery of beneficial
ingredients to the skin, is named
after the Italian scientist.

p
What Is a Galvanic Treatment?

 For the past several decades,


spa and salon professionals have
used gentle galvanic currents in
customized treatments to refresh
and energize the skin. These
treatments, through a gentle
massaging action, help to focus
cellular energy and enhance
circulation.
How Does a Galvanic Treatment Work?
 Like charges repel each other
and opposites attract. By
formulating products to contain a
specific charge and using currents
of the same charge, the currents
are able to “push” the product into
the skin, which facilitates the
delivery of key ingredients.

+  With the careful application of

positive and negative galvanic
currents to the face, an
aesthetician is able to perform a
variety of skin treatments.

Galvanic Spa™ Facial Gels
Have You Ever Wondered Why Some
People Look Younger Than They
Really Are?

Nu Skin’s ageLOC™ Technology Has the Answer


The ageLOC™ Discovery

New research at has recently


revealed a major, previously


hidden source of aging within
each of us: an internal free
radical generator in the
epidermis.
Present on the surface of our

cells, this invisible enemy is


capable of generating skin
damaging free radicals
around the clock; increasing
as we age.
Unlike other free radicals

that come from exposure to


the sun or pollutants, our
genes control its activity.
p
The ageLOC™ Discovery

This internal free radical


generator can produce free


radicals so quickly that
even antioxidants need
some additional help in
slowing it down.
The unique solution: slow

the production of these skin


damaging free radicals at
their source, and stop the
visible signs of aging before
they start.
p
The ageLOC™ Discovery

In an additional
breakthrough, Nu Skin
scientists have recently
identified an exclusive
blend of ingredients that
slow production of free
radicals in the epidermis.
Introducing ageLOC—

technology designed to
reduce the visible
signs of aging by
targeting an invisible
source of your aging
appearance.

Affix the Face Conductor to the instrument.


After cleansing and toning, apply the entire
contents of the clear Pre - Treat capsule to
clean face and neck.

Select the “one fountain” and “two minute”


settings, moisten your hand, then place the
device against the skin.

Wait for the unit to beep as it adjusts the


current to your skin (You may hear one, two,
or three beeps). Once it beeps, begin working
the gel into the skin in a gentle movement
that follows the contours of the face and
neck, avoiding the eye, eyelid, and lip areas.
Step 1: Purifying Pre-Treat Usage

Remember, during each step a


moist hand must remain on the


chrome panel for conduction, and
the head must stay in contact with
the skin at all times for the current
to persist.
Every 20 seconds the Galvanic Spa

will offer a single beep indicating


that the current is in contact with
the skin.
When you hear a double beep,

your treatment is complete. Wipe


the excess gel from your face
Step 1: Pre-Treat
Description of Benefits
a) Removes impurities, allowing pores to breathe.
 A negative galvanic current softens and relaxes pores
and dissolves and liquefies sebum to open pores. TEA
cocoyl glutamate, a cleansing agent, purifies the skin.
b) Soothes and conditions the skin.
 Marigold is used to soothe and nurture irritated and
inflamed skin. Vanilla is reported to soothe the skin. Sea
kelp is known for being rich in skin nourishing and
conditioning compounds. The skin conditioning effects of
these natural ingredients soothe the skin, leaving it
feeling supple and refreshed.

b) Facilitates recovery from stress; promotes cellular
energy.
 Arginine is an amino acid involved in the relaxation of
small blood vessels, leading to increased circulation.
Arginine facilitates recovery from stress—caused by free
radicals, lack of nutrients, build up of toxins, etc.—and
injury. Magnesium is an essential mineral and key
compound of mitochondrial function. Mitochondria are
the organelles of tiny organs within skin cells that
produce cellular energy.
c) Enhances skin hydration and leaves skin feeling
incredibly soft, clean, and refreshed.
 Formulated with gentle humectants for skin
hydration, while rose, sandalwood, and jasmine extracts
revive the skin and leave it feeling refreshed.

Demonstration
Half-Face Demonstration
 To show the immediate benefits of the
Galvanic Spa, guide volunteers through a
facial on one side of their face.
 Before they begin, have them cleanse
and tone with the Nu Skin® products of
choice. Ask them to apply a full vial of gel to
only half of their face and neck.
 Be sure they keep a moist hand in
constant contact with the chrome plate.
If a n y irrita tio n o r
 Ask them to work through the Galvanic
d isco m fort re su lts, facial following the motions suggested on
d isco n tin u e u se . only one side of the face.
 The pre-treat step should be done for
no more than two minutes and the
treatment step for no more than three
minutes.

Half-Face Demonstration
 While performing the demonstration,
ask users to follow the contours of the
face and use a gentle upward motion. Ask
them to avoid the eye, eyelid, and lip
areas of the face.
 While doing the half-face facial, talk
through what is happening in each step.
Let the individual or group know what
current is being used, the charge of the
product being used, and the key
ingredients and their benefits to the skin.
 At the end, point out the differences
between the treated side and the
untreated side. The side that has been
treated will appear fresher, lifted, and
more vibrant.
 Follow with other Nu Skin® skin care
products like Tru Face® Essence Ultra or
Tru Face® Line Corrector.
Suggested Movements
for Half-Face Demo

1. Eye Area
Follow the natural contours around the eye,
starting under the eye and moving up around
the eye gently working the gel into the
skin. Repeat this motion several times.  

You always want to move upward and outward


with gentle pressure and back down with
light pressure, making sure that you never
pull on the skin. Also, when you’re working
around the eye area, avoid getting too close
to the eye itself. Avoid the eyelid as well.
Simply follow the bone structure around the
eye.
