Facial device is indispensable for daily beauty care. There are many different types, and many people have trouble deciding which one is best for them. In this article, we introduce recommended items for different skin problems, including the effects of facial devices, pore care, and acne scar care. It also describes many things related to facial equipment, including products from popular manufacturers such as Yerman and Panasonic and how to use them, so please refer to it.

What are the effects of facial device?

A facial device is an item that can easily care for your skin by using ultrasonic waves, ions, and LEDs, allowing you to enjoy full-fledged care at home without having to go to an esthetician. Even if you tend to neglect your skin care due to financial or time constraints, it is very useful to have one because it can pinpoint your skin problems.

Types of facial device

There are many different types of facial equipment. Let's take a look at the features and performance of each type to help you decide which type is best for you.

Steamer｜The best for building a foundation for skin care

The steamer type naturally opens pores and softens the skin by applying warm steam to the skin. Rather than using it by itself, use it while cleansing or taking care of your skin. Since the steamer only prepares the foundation for skin care, moisturizing after care is a must.

Water peeling｜Clean pores and dead skin cells

Water peeling is a facial device that cleanses pores and dead skin cells by using water and ultrasonic vibration. Only the water misted by the vibration is used to repel dirt and other contaminants. This makes it possible to care for the skin gently. It is recommended for people who are concerned about blackheads, dead skin cells, and dull skin that cannot be removed by normal cleansing and face washing.

RF｜Working on the inner surface of the skin to regulate it

The power of RF (radio frequency), which is an electromagnetic wave that does not harm the skin, works on the inner surface of the skin, so it does not interfere with the skin's natural turnover and helps to maintain healthy and elastic skin. The RF (radiofrequency) facial device is also recommended for treating blemishes, dullness, and swelling.

Ultrasonic｜Effects on old keratin and dirt in pores and face lines

There are two types of ultrasonic facial device: high-frequency type and low-frequency type. The high-frequency type uses ultra-high speed vibrations of tens of thousands of times per second to generate fine bubbles that help remove dead skin cells and dirt from pores that cannot be covered by normal facial cleansing.

The low-frequency type is also ideal for those who are concerned about sagging, wrinkles, and other facial lines by stimulating the facial muscles inside the skin.

Ion introduction/conduction｜Pumping electricity into the skin to make it easier to penetrate

The ion-introduction function is a function that facilitates the penetration of ingredients of toners and serums deep into the skin by passing a weak electric current through the skin. This makes it perfect for dry skin or when you want to moisturize your skin. On the other hand, the ion-conducting function is a function that absorbs dirt and excess matter on the surface of the skin and leads the skin to a clean state. It even removes microscopic dirt that is difficult to remove with cleansing, making it a good choice for those who are concerned about blackheads.

EMS｜For lack of elasticity and face line care

EMS refers to low-frequency waves, and by transmitting vibrations to the deepest parts of the skin, EMS-type facial care devices can provide stimulation and vibration that cannot be obtained through massage. It is ideal for treating lack of elasticity in the face and face lines.

LED (Light Emitting Diode)｜Firm and healthy skin

The LED type facial device gives your skin a firm and healthy look by illuminating it with LED light. The color of the light has a different effect on the skin. Red light makes the skin firm and elastic, while blue light not only improves the skin texture but also removes acne scars and keeps the skin healthy. The yellow color removes dead skin cells and helps firm the skin.

Roller｜Direct stimulation to the face line

Facial rollers, also known as "korokoro," are facial appliances that can be rolled along the face to treat facial lines and skin. It is the perfect item for those who suffer from lines, sagging, double chins, and swelling. It can also be used anywhere, so you can use it while watching TV.

How to choose a facial device

In addition to the types of facial appliances mentioned above, there are other points to consider when choosing a facial appliance. Here are some tips to help you find the right one for you.

Size and Shape｜Choose the one that suits you best and is easy to use.

A facial toner is effective only if you use it continuously every day. For this reason, it is important to choose a size and shape that suits your situation and is easy to use. For a hand-held device, we recommend a lightweight device that will not cause fatigue. For those that fit directly on the skin, make sure that it adheres well to the skin.

Care time｜If you are short on time, we recommend a product that can provide intensive care in 10 to 15 minutes.

Basically, it is recommended that you use a facial device continuously. However, it may be surprisingly difficult to find the time to spend on skin care every day. Some facial equipment offers a 10-15 minute intensive care course, which is recommended if you want to take care of your skin in a short time.

Waterproof function｜Check if you want to use it in the bath

In some cases, it is more effective to care for your skin when your pores are fully open, such as when you are taking a bath. There are also facial care products that are designed to be used with special oil or lotion, which can be difficult to use in the living room. In such a case, a waterproof facial device that can be used in the bath without any problems is a good choice.

Ease of cleaning｜Washable with water is hygienic

It is important to keep your facial massage device clean because many of them are used every day. For this reason, choose a device that can be washed with water and that is easy to clean. If it has a tank like a facial steamer, be sure to change the water frequently.

Other Necessary Goods｜Check if there are items to be used together with the facial steamer.

Each facial device has its own special serum, gel, and water that can be used with it. If there are other items that you will be using together with your facial device, please check those as well. In addition, consider the running costs of consumables when making your selection.

Price range｜Various price settings depending on the functions installed

However, those costing between 5,000 and 20,000 yen have the minimum necessary functions and are sufficient for home skin care.

How to use a facial cleanser properly

There are many different types of facial cleansers and their usage varies from type to type, but the timing and frequency are basically the same. Please check below.

Focus on the timing and frequency of using a facial beauty device

Ideally, it should match the timing of your normal skin care routine. If you do your skin care after bathing, do it after bathing; if you do it before going to bed, do it before bed. The frequency of use depends on the type of product you are using and the condition of your skin, but it is best to use it every two days. It is best to use it every other day. On the days you don't use your facial device, follow your normal skin care routine.

Questions about facial cleansers explained

In addition to the explanations we have given so far about facial appliances, if you have any more questions, please check out the following.

Q1: Is it okay to use various types of facial equipment at once?

Using a facial cleanser can irritate your skin, so avoid using one if you have weak or sensitive skin. Some products can be used more than once, but be sure to check with the user's manual or manufacturer before use.

Q2. Can I use my own skincare products as a substitute for the "special cream" used with the facial device?

There are some products that instruct you to use a special cream together with your facial device. This is a manufacturer's instruction to make the facial device more effective and to prevent the device from malfunctioning. In such cases, it is recommended to use the specified cream.

Q3. What is the difference between a home facial device and an esthetic salon device?

In most cases, the power output of home facial equipment is set low so that anyone can use it safely. On the other hand, in an esthetic salon, professional estheticians check the safety of each skin condition while performing the treatment, so they use devices with high output.
