Technology has now invaded every aspect of our lives, positively or negatively, depending on the perspective, and skincare is no exception! Among skincare enthusiasts and beauty gurus, hi-tech devices have become increasingly popular. These specific tools, thanks to technology, help lift, tone, and counteract premature aging of the skin. They precisely and deeply cleanse the skin, stimulate collagen and elastin production using pulsations, LED lights, radio frequencies, electrostimulation, and sonic technologies. Until recently, these technologies were only found in medical or aesthetic studios, but now they can be delivered directly to our homes with just a click! Yes, the new frontier of skincare includes a series of hi-tech devices for personal use: lightweight, easy to use, and often even pocket-sized. They allow us to perform spa-like treatments or those of a specialized aesthetic center in the comfort of our homes, saving both time and money. They are useful as an intermediate step in our daily routine or as an extra treat for the skin. Let’s discover together 4 essential tools for every beauty bag!
Hi-Tech Skincare Devices – ageLOC Boost System, Nu Skin
Nu Skin’s ageLOC Boost system uses variable pulsed microcurrent technology to transmit intermittent and variable pulses to the skin. Its effectiveness lies in the random pulsing waveform that alternates polarities every 2.4 seconds. Paired with the Activating Serum, this device makes the skin brighter, fuller, and more elastic. It helps improve the appearance of spots, provides gentle exfoliation, and promotes skin cell renewal for a smoother, brighter, and more even complexion. To achieve visible results, use it for just two minutes once a day after applying the Activating Serum to the conductive surface of ageLOC Boost, then spread it on the face, turn on the device, and move it over the face in an upward and outward motion until the specified time is complete.
Hi-Tech Skincare Devices – Mini Facial Toner, NuFACE
We’ve all seen it, and probably, we all want it: NuFace’s mini toner is a microcurrent device designed to tone, uplift, and provide instant lifting through small electrical impulses that act on the muscles of the face. Drawing inspiration from professional EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) machines used for decades to treat facial and body skin, this hi-tech device also works on firmness, dullness, wrinkle prevention, and reduction. It operates not only on the surface but visibly tones the facial muscles that contract and release, making them stronger.
In just 5 minutes, 5 times a week, you can maintain or increase facial firmness and reduce (or prevent) wrinkles at home.
Hi-Tech Skincare Devices – Bear 2, Foreo
Bear 2 is the only device on the market with four innovative types of microcurrents, ideal for toning all 69 muscles of the face and neck. It stimulates circulation, plumps the skin, provides essential oxygen and nutrients to cells for accelerated skin renewal, reduces spots, and brightens the face. Using up to 680 µA of microcurrent, it firms the skin, reduces signs of aging, decongests the jawline, and promotes lymphatic flow to reduce retention and eliminate toxins and reducing swelling. The device’s upper spheres provide microcurrent that mimics the body’s natural current, promoting ATP cell growth and collagen production, while the medium-sized spheres cover a large surface area of the face, targeting even the most challenging areas.
Hi-Tech Skincare Devices – LED Light Phototherapy Mask, CurrentBody Skin
As we age, the skin can lose between 20% and 80% of its thickness. This mask combines the power of red light, which stimulates collagen production, reduces redness, and gives the skin a uniform tone, with infrared light that penetrates deep into the skin, improving circulation and increasing blood flow and oxygenation of skin cells. In synergy, these two wavelengths work to stimulate the body’s natural processes that synthesize fewer proteins such as collagen and elastin as we age, resulting in a loss of tone, firmness, and brightness. The CurrentBody Skin LED Light Phototherapy Mask offers the perfect dosage of dual LED light and ensures that the maximum allowed light hits the lower layers of the skin, turning off automatically once the recommended application time is completed. Additionally, the device is designed to be used with a hydrogel mask that accelerates the process, if desired.
