Are Beauty Devices Actually Effective? Skincare Tips and Usage Experience Sharing

Hello everyone! It’s been just after the New Year, and winter has already passed halfway. At this time, people tend to be particularly lazy, spending every day at home watching TV, sleeping, and staying up late.

As a result, the condition of the skin is not very good. Especially after staying up late, the skin becomes rough and pimple-prone!

So, I purchased a home-use beauty device product.

This episode will cover the process of my purchase and usage, as well as some brief explanations about skincare products and the beauty device. Everyone is welcome to discuss together.

II. Brief Introduction to RF Beauty Device

The RF beauty device is a non-invasive treatment method. It uses high-frequency radio waves to penetrate our epidermis and uses thermal energy to help our collagen and elastic fibers regenerate.

This is a diagram of the skin’s surface structure. The RF device penetrates from the epidermis to the inner layer of the dermis, emitting high-energy electromagnetic waves to generate a thermal effect, stimulating the regeneration of collagen in the dermis to achieve lifting and tightening effects, as well as preventing skin sagging~

RF is one of the few anti-aging beauty techniques that have been proven effective. The recently popular Thermage also uses RF technology. However, medical beauty projects in hospitals or beauty salons are expensive and the schedule is not flexible. More affordable home RF beauty devices can also effectively achieve anti-aging effects, and are convenient and fast, becoming the choice of more people.

There are more and more models of RF beauty devices on the market, which can be overwhelming. When choosing, be sure to pay attention to the following points~ 

The radio frequency frequency of the machine itself needs to be taken into consideration. Currently, the frequency of home beauty devices ranges from 1 MHz to 4.2 MHz, with 1 MHz being the passing mark. However, it is not the case that the higher the frequency, the better. Because the radio frequency requires power support. If the power is too high, it may lead to the risk of burns, and the current sensation will also be stronger, affecting the user experience. 

Similarly, in addition to the frequency of the radio frequency, when choosing the instrument, one also needs to pay attention to the heating temperature of the device. It is not the case that the higher the temperature, the better. For home beauty devices, heating the dermal layer to a range of 48-54 degrees is relatively reasonable.

Radio frequency beauty devices also have multi-pole, bipolar, and multi-pole distinctions. “Pole” refers to the electrode. And multi-pole is actually multiple pairs of bipolar. Multi-pole radio frequency can achieve uniform energy concentration in the overlapping area, thereby using a smaller power to achieve better results.
