Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Do you think it would help firm up mild sagging around the mouth and jaw area? I would really appreciate your opinions, thanks! |

I was never that impressed with LED devices - they're OK, but the results seem temporary.
This device also claims to use radio frequency (RF) for skin tightening. You can't obviously use both the LED and RF at the same time - your skin needs to be clean and dry using LEDs, and with RF, you need to use glycerin.
And of course, with RF, the device needs to reach a certain temperature in order to have any effect. Basically, it has to be feel hot. Whether this device does that, I don't know.
Have you considered the Tripollar Stop? It's much more expensive, but you can a good deal on ebay. Several of us on this forum have had good results, but it takes a commitment, and you won't see full results until six months. |

Thank you so very much for your reply! Yes I have searched Tripollar although like you say it is expensive and that's my problem. I have also read up on the Dot Matrix. I haven't checked Ebay but I will check it now. I'm at my wits end with the sagging, it's minor but it worries me to no end. Other than that my skin is in great shape. My problem areas are under my mouth sagging and cheeks. I'm 54 but look much younger according to others, but I sure don't feel that way! Right now I am trying Eva Fraser's exercises, I just started so I can't comment on how it's going to work out. So far I haven't had much luck with facial exercises but I'm giving it another go. Other things I use are Microsphere .1 and sunscreen, and coconut oil for moisturizing. I've used Retin A for about 5 years now and it has made my skin line free and smooth, I'll never be without it. I really appreciate your input more than you know. I will look on Ebay for the Tripollar. Thank you again Photopro! ) |

With any device you use, to a large part of the success depends on using it regularly and consistently. I have purchased things previously used them a few times and them put them in the box in the wardrobe. However I haven’t purchased the Tripollar but suspect with that amount of money that it would be something I wouldn’t put to waste.
We are our own worst critics. Often times we focus and elaborate on our smallest imperfections which others don’t even notice. Eva Fraser’s exercises are good – and she is highly motivating. I’d love to look at good as her when I’m 80. However just like the devices exercises need time and consistency. |

Yes, I agree with all you said. My problem is I don't give things enough time, I get discouraged if I don't see some kind of results fast. I think what I'm going to do is to stick with Eva's program for a couple of months and see what kind of results I am getting. By then I should know if they are working. And I think you are right about other people not seeing what we see when we look in the mirror, I know I find every little flaw that I'm sure others don't! But it's all about feeling good about ourselves, so what we see is what's important! Thank you so much for your help, you and the others have helped me to decide that I'm going to stick with the facial exercises and give it some time. Good luck to all of us! |
