What is a facial device?
A facial device is literally a device that beautifies and conditions the face. These products are sold at electronics stores, cosmetics stores, and beauty supply stores. The prices range from a few thousand yen to tens of thousands of yen.
However, there are many products with different effects and efficacy. If you want to use one, it is important to determine the performance and purpose of the product. In addition, there are some facial products that are recommended and some that should not be purchased.
In this article, I will introduce some of the facial products that you should not buy.
1. Facial massager
This facial massager is a product that has been sold on the streets for several years now. It is relatively inexpensive and is a popular type. Recently, they have been sold in 100 yen stores, and some people buy them.
However, facial massagers have very little effect on beautifying the face. First of all, the shape of the product is that it is divided into two parts at the end from where you hold it. Then, the two ends are characterized by a "round ball".
The basic idea is to apply this round ball to your face and roll or massage it. It is said that the best way is to roll and rub it from the cheeks to the chin and neck area. Some of the benefits include "blemish removal," "wrinkle removal," and "improved lymphatic flow of blood.
However, the fact is that facial massagers have very little of these benefits. The balls in the massager part are meant to stimulate and improve the skin condition, but they are only comfortable or painful and do not help improve the skin.
2. Ion-introduction facial device
Ions are one of the "beauty ingredients" that are said to be effective for the skin. Many cosmetics contain ion ingredients to moisturize the skin. There are also more and more devices that are used in facial beauty equipment, and they are attracting more attention from women. Some cosmetic surgeons and estheticians use ion-introduction facial equipment.
However, this facial device is a system that sends ions to the skin through an electric current, and depending on the frequency of use, the home use of this device can damage the skin. For example, if used daily, the skin may age faster or become rough.
Ionic facial equipment is similar to a simple facial roller, but it is not as effective. They are sold at prices ranging from a few thousand yen to several thousand yen, and are usually made in Japan or China. Most of them are made in Japan or China, and because they are cheap, they do not last long.
If you have sensitive skin or dry skin, you should not buy or use these products. If you have sensitive skin, you should not buy or use these products, as they may cause irritation and skin problems. If you don't know your skin type, it will have a negative impact on you.
3. Ultrasonic Facial Machine
This facial device is a product that cleanses the skin from the bottom up by applying "ultrasonic waves" to the face. The sound-based action has many benefits. First of all, sending ultrasonic waves activates the skin and makes it firm.
It is said to return the skin to its youthful state, making it plumper and firmer. In addition, it makes it easier to remove dirt stuck deep in the pores. It is expected to help prevent acne, dullness, and blemishes.
However, ultrasonic facial equipment is a product that has many "side effects". When side effects are present, their use is only recommended for a limited number of people. For example, a common case is people with allergies.
This product creates a "danger" when it touches the skin because the tip is made of metal. This can lead to itching, pimples, and other problems that can make your skin dirty instead of clean. If you are allergic to it, there is no point in buying it if you get skin problems just by touching it.
Ultrasonic facial equipment is also available in products that use skin-friendly titanium and stainless steel. These products have been improved to make it easier for people with allergies to use them. However, people with metal allergies should not buy these products because there is no guarantee that they will not cause problems even if the material is changed.
Therefore, I recommend that people with allergies use an ultrasonic facial device with a silicon head, which has no side effects and is safe.
4. Laser facial equipment
This product can remove blemishes and dullness from the skin by shining light on it. For women, these symptoms are something they want to improve. When spots and dullness appear on the skin, it can make you look five to six years older.
Laser facial equipment can help you improve and eliminate such skin problems. However, many of the products sold in electronics stores are not very effective.
First of all, for home use, the power of the laser is weak and it takes time for the effect to appear. There are reports that even after a long period of use, the spots do not disappear at all. For home use, the laser power is only about one-third of that used in cosmetic surgery. This makes it difficult to remove blemishes and dullness, and there is a risk of them appearing in reverse if the product is used for a long period of time.
In addition, the price of this product is high and often sells for nearly 100,000 yen. With such a high price, some people are attracted by its effectiveness and durability. However, in spite of the price, there are some drawbacks that make them prone to "breakdowns" and break quickly.
If it breaks down in a few months, you will lose money instead of gaining benefits. If you want to clean up your skin in a short period of time, it is better to have it done at a cosmetic surgery or clinic.
5. Radiofrequency (RF) facial device
This is a facial device with a name that is not often heard. It is characterized by its ability to produce a positive effect on the skin by applying radio waves, RF, and high frequency waves emitted from the product to the skin. The heat warms the skin from underneath, activating metabolism and blood circulation.
As a result, there are expectations that swelling, spots, and dullness will disappear. However, radio frequency facial devics also have side effects that you should not buy.
Like ultrasonic facial equipment, it uses a metal head, so you need to be careful about "allergies". In the case of radiofrequency facial equipment, there are several "prohibited areas". There are some products that prohibit use in the eye area (upper eyelids), ears, neck area, and wounds.
It is best to buy products that can be used in as wide a range of areas as possible.
