ok, I received my Patakara in the mail yesterday. It arrived from Taiwan in 10 days. It came with a dvd, a fit pull,(a pink soft sticky thing that you press against your face for resistance, and of course the weird device itself.
It states that I need to do this at least 4 times a day for 3 minutes a go. They even include a ridiculous plastic hourglass, which I actually use in the bathroom, as I don't have a clock in there.
First off let me say, I have been doing facial exercises off and on for the last year. Mostly facial magic, and a few other exercises that I have found work for me. So my mouth was not overwhelmed by the resistance this thing offered. I have used it 5 times now, and will post before pics later this evening...so I can get an idea of what I am looking at. I am mostly concerned with my nasolabial folds and jaw.
The website is strong with science and has very convincing before and afters. This was originally intended as a medical device, which was ultimately why I shelled the 125.00. I have tmj and upper neck pain... this device apparently will help with a plethora of dysfunctions.
My main intent for this thread is to either prove or disprove this very little known of device. I have found virtually no info on it. EDS has only one hit when searching for Patakara, and online is seems to be only their site info.... and a few (read very few) reviews. Facial Flex and Flex Away, are everywhere, but not this thing... Doesn't help that its foreign. So I am gonna be the guinea pig.
I will give it a game go, 4 to 5 times a day for the next 6 weeks, and will be posting pics along the way.. so stay tuned. for before pics, I am gonna post them now, so as to stay completely unbiased and objective. I figure if this is a complete dud, then I can help others avoid the never ending cosmetic guillotine onslaught of product that promises our best face yet, but never delivers.... |
