How quickly will I see results?
Immediately. If you lift half your face then do a comparison of each side, you will notice the instant lift. The results are cumulative; each treatment builds upon the last. For enhanced results use the advanced technique with NuFACE ® serums.
What type of results will I see?
After using the NuFACE ® device, you will experience tighter skin, more defined jaw line and cheekbones, reduction of fine lines and wrinkles, lifted eyebrow, wider eye, and a more youthful glow. With prolonged NuFACE ® use, the results last longer. In addition, the skin is thicker and more buoyant, jowls and nasolabial lines are reduced or eliminated, and muscles are lifted and tighter.
How much current will I feel?
Microcurrent is a low level current that is very soothing and relaxing. A slight tingling may be felt in certain areas. You can lower or raise the intensity during any segment by turning the thumbwheel up or down on the machine.
How much Derma-Gel should be applied to my face?
A thin layer of Derma-Gel should be applied to your face to allow the current to be transferred directly to the muscles and to glide the NuFACE ® device easily over the contours of your face without pulling the skin. DO NOT allow the Derma-Gel to dry while performing your treatment. Spray the Optimizing Mist over the Derma-Gel to keep moist.
Why do I have to stay away from the mouth and eye areas?
The mouth and eye area are circular muscles and need to be treated in accordance of the muscle direction. Due to the design of the NuFACE ® device, it cannot work those muscles properly and those muscles should be avoided. However, microcurrent does travel, so improvement will still be seen around the mouth and eyes.
How fast should I be gliding the NuFACE ® device?
Take your time with the NuFACE ® treatment; each step should be roughly a long 5 count (one- one thousand, two-one thousand, etc.). When using the advanced techniques, hold each point for 5 seconds.
Can the NuFACE ® device be used while wearing make-up or skin care products?
No. Your skin should not have any make-up or moisturizers on before using the NuFACE ® device.
How many times a week should I use the NuFACE ® device at home?
Within the first 90 days we recommend to use the NuFACE ® at least 5 times a week. Then, use the NuFACE ® at least 2-3 times a week to maintain the lift and tone. Any more often than once in a 24 hour period is not recommended as the muscles need some rest time between treatments.
How long do these results last?
The treatment results are cumulative. Results from one treatment should last approximately 24-72 hours.
Can I use the NuFACE ® device if I have rosacea, acne, broken capillaries or skin cancer?
NuFACE ® can be used on rosacea, acne, and broken capillaries with caution. We recommend lowering the intensity to avoid sensitivity. NuFACE ® should NOT be used if you have skin cancer. Consult your physician.
