What microcurrent does (and doesn’t do) for your skin and the devices I recommend

I've been using the NuFace Trinity for almost two and a half years now - just turned 71. I've been very happy with it. To be clear, it isn't a miracle worker. It also doesn't seem to have much effect on my wrinkles. It has, however, helped enormously with laxity just under my jowls, with a fold of skin that had developed between my eyes (now gone), and with some sagging in my cheeks that was causing the corners of my mouth to turn down, one side especially. It also helps with my eyelid sagging. It has a mild toning effect on the face muscles and gives my face a healthier color. The Trinity has five levels. It's not comfortable on my neck at the highest level so I use a lower level there and still get good results. I certainly agree that if you are looking for wrinkle elimination, there may be better at home devices, and that if you're very saggy, you won't get dramatic results from the NuFace - but, based on my experience and that of at least some over 50s, that doesn't mean it won't help you.

Thank you for sharing, Clare. I always enjoy how in-depth your videos are, so I've learnt a lot about my favourite modality as well. I personally do see a lot of change with my bear, I wasn't too keen on the nuface though. And I do agree, it's important to be realistic with our expectations, so if you've already got some significant sagging, it won't be as effective

I just got the nuface mini as it was highly recommended and Ulta had it on sale at a significantly reduced price. I told myself I could still return it. Since I’m 68 and while I’ve been wearing sunscreen since the 80’s I inherited my dad’s jowls. I thought I might be too late. My goal was 3 days on, one day off. I do have a cup of water to rehydrate the gel. I use it on high. Within 2 weeks the difference in my jowls is pretty dramatic, my turkey neck is improved. I find it rather meditative so it’s easy to keep at it. I bought it a week before Black Friday….. I love it!

I love the Myolift. I use the gloves, so no gel. Really enjoy your channel.

Great video Clare. Like you I love micro current and have been using it for quite a while for subtle but noticeable results

I tried the NuFace a while back but returned it. I found it really uncomfortable and knew I'd never stick with it. I'm very interested to see your next installment. The microcurrent plus red light might be the way to go. Thanks for your hard work!

I had the nuface for years .. I love it .. I recently got the bear and I use it when I’m in a hurry or traveling.

I love how you made it simple to understand, thank you for that! I have tried nuface first and I have also felt discomfort, so I bought the bear and it actually feels good and the results are delivered. I can honestly recommend it

Hi Clare, I have used micro current for about 10 years now, & love it because it has always made me look youthful. I started with the Tua Viso & the Tua Trend which only need water without the gel. I love them, & still have them. The NuFace didn't do much for me, but I had both, along with the mini. I have the NRGY that's made from Truth treatments with both micro current & EMS, ( a bit strong, but effective. I purchased the Myolift QT & it is fast & easy to use, & it works. But recently I purchased the Halo Ziip & absolutely love it, & use it every other day. But my holy grail is the MiTama, which gives you an instant facial for at least 2 days. You just apply a sheet mask & place your electrodes on top & sit back & relax. I love it, & will never be without it!!!! I also purchased the Jane Mann Lift probe that you can attach to the MiTama, or the Myolift Qt or the Pico Tone, (which I don't have), And the Lift probe does a wonderful microcurrent job too! I also use the Omnilux LED mask daily alternating with the Qure, that only takes 3 minutes. Microcurrent & LED keeps me glowing!!!!

Hi Clare, like you, i own both Ziip's, and I have to say the Halo is making such a difference, apart from the lift, the glow it leaves on my skin is just amazing. 4 minutes a day is totally do-able, and so much easier without the app. Nuface did nothing for me. Looking forward to hearing about Maysama Urchin. I can definitely see the improvements on your face Clare, your skin looks so much more tighter, lifted and ......well, just so healthy, from when I first started watching your first video, so well done. Love your channel. Thank you for your amazing research, it is appreciated.x

I tried the NuFace too and had to return it because it made my teeth-roots (right word?) very sensitive! Thank you for your work🙏🏼

I'm using the Bear and it's really comfortable to use on my skin. It feels much more supple after using it.

Hi Clare. Thank you so much for this video. I had the Foreo Bear and found myself not using it because I couldn’t just pick it up and use it. I always had to use the app and, if my phone was downstairs or in another room, I would often not bother. In theory, once you’ve downloaded and registered the Bear, and set it up on the app, you should be able to use the Bear without the app but it never worked for me. I bought the Ziip Halo and I love it. I, like you, do the 4 minute workout about 5 times a week. I find it comfortable and very ergonomic whereas the Foreo Bear was less comfortable to hold in my hand. Thank you for the cheaper, alternative conductor gels/serums too. Some of the branded ones are very expensive. Great video, as always. 😊

O how i woul love to have a nice microcurrent device! In South Africa there is not much of a good choice to choose from...I do microcurrent, LED light, basically everything!!...but not all devices all equal. Love to watch(ALL) your videos and interesting topics with Dr's and Dermatologists - facts that are based on science. Love my gadgets!!!

I love the ZIIP!!! It’s the only device I have stuck with because of how easy it’s to use. Overall it’s a great device! I also love the Myolyft Mini, I use that one once a month.

The Ziip Gx was given as a gift to me. I love it. I badly hurt my hand also years ago now, I used the Zip on it and daily pain and my doctor said permident untreatable arthritis went away after I used the Ziip on my hand for about a year and it never came back. Woah. What does it do for our face if that happens?! Cool.

I love to watch your videos. Can you talk about "Amiro RF"? Thank you!

I’ve had the nuface and clareblend mini and got the ziip halo this week. The ziip is amazing! I’ve really seen a difference already. You’re looking lovely Claire, really pretty ❤️🥰

I switched to Foreo Bear 2 and never looked back. Fantastic microcurrent device

Love your channel. Would you address scientific findings of red light/led lights on skin of colour? Also microcurrent devices.
