ageLOC® Galvanic SPA Facial Gels (Canada)

ageLOC Galvanic Spa Facial Gels are the essential treatment products for the ageLOC Galvanic Spa device — a two-step gel system that uses galvanic polarity to first draw out impurities, then drive ageLOC anti-ageing ingredients deep into the dermis. The set includes a Pre-Treatment Gel (positively charged, for purification) and a Treatment Gel (negatively charged, for active ingredient delivery). Each set provides approximately 6–8 weeks of treatments at the recommended frequency of 2–3 times per week. Without these specifically formulated gels, the Galvanic Spa device cannot function as intended.

What Makes Galvanic Spa Facial Gels Different

These aren't ordinary skincare gels — they're iontophoretic delivery media with precisely calibrated ionic charges. The Pre-Treatment Gel carries a positive charge that, when paired with the device's positive setting, creates an electro-osmotic effect that draws negatively charged impurities (oxidized sebum, pollution residue, dead cell debris) out of pores. The Treatment Gel carries a negative charge that, under the device's negative setting, repels the like-charged ageLOC actives through the stratum corneum into the living dermis.

This two-step polarity approach is based on established iontophoresis science used in clinical dermatology. Nu Skin's innovation is formulating consumer-grade products that achieve meaningful transdermal delivery in a home setting.

Key Ingredients

Pre-Treatment Gel: Positively charged purifying agents in a conductive base. Draws out negatively charged impurities via electro-osmosis during the device's positive-current phase.

Treatment Gel (ageLOC): Negatively charged ageLOC proprietary blend targeting Youth Gene Clusters associated with skin ageing. Driven into the dermis via like-charge repulsion during the negative-current phase.

How to Use

Step 1: Apply Pre-Treatment Gel to clean skin. Set Galvanic Spa to positive (+) and glide across face for 3–5 minutes. Remove residual gel — you may notice discolouration from extracted impurities. Step 2: Apply Treatment Gel. Set device to negative (–) and glide for 3–5 minutes. Leave residual treatment on skin. Follow with moisturizer.

Use 2–3 times per week. Not for daily use — skin needs recovery time between galvanic sessions. Canadian winter is an ideal time for the purification step, as indoor heating and reduced humidity cause pore congestion that manual cleansing misses.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I order Galvanic Spa Facial Gels in Canada?

Order from nubestskin.com — no membership required. Ships from the official Nu Skin Canada warehouse. Standard shipping: CA$2.99, free over CA$79. Delivery: 3–5 business days.

Q: Can I use other gels with the Galvanic Spa?

No — the gels are specifically formulated with calibrated ionic charges for the device's operating parameters. Generic conductive gels won't achieve iontophoretic delivery and may impair device function.

Q: How many treatments per set?

Each set provides approximately 15–20 full facial treatments (both steps). At 2–3 treatments per week, that's 6–8 weeks per set.

Q: Should I buy the gels separately or the Galvanic Spa & Facial Gel Kit?

If you already own the device, the gel set (CA$48) is all you need. If you're new to the system, the kit (CA$399) includes the device plus gels and is better value than buying separately.

Q: Can I see the impurities being extracted?

Yes — after the Pre-Treatment step, you'll often see the gel has changed colour slightly from the extracted oxidized sebum and debris. It's visually satisfying and confirms the purification process is working.
