Hi and welcome Smile

I think you just need to be patient and someone will come along and answer. it's probably better to bump a post up than starting a new thread on the same thing as well because then you end up with replies all over the place.

For me, I can't advise...no experience of gadgets or possible side effects. I will say that using sunscreen, especially if you are using renova, is a must, but diet is possibly the biggest thing to keep your skin good.

I'm sure you will get more helpful replies in time Smile

I hope you get some good suggestions to your question. I am using one of those light gadget thingys but I can't really tell you whether there is any damage from using this too early. Gut feeling says no, but that is not an educated response.

I am deleting your previous topic as we want to eliminate having the same discussion in multiple places if possible. TIA

hi, thanks for the reply. mabsy, i was just wondering what gadget you are using and if you are doing it as an early preventative measure? are you 30? are you seeing results? thanks! also, how do you bump up a post? sorry for the double post

bumping is posting like this. Any post on a thread bumps it up to the top Smile

Hi kikilarue,

I would keep it simple - stick with basics like sunscreen, hydration (inside [water, essential fatty acids (EFAs), etc.] and outside), etc.

If you want to buy a gadget that will be useful, I recommend the Clarisonic skin brush - an initial investment of $ that should serve you well for many years. It's does a good job of cleansing and exfoliating at the same time. If you don't want to buy a gadget, a "microdermabrasion"/microfiber clothe or sponge does a great job for cleansing and exfoliating. For more info on either, do a search on the Forum and you'll be able to read more feedback on both. Best wishes.

hi, thanks for the reply. the clarisonic is for clarity though right? i already use renova so wouldn't want another exfoliator and also the texture of my skin is really good so i just wanted somthing to maintain plumpness and firmness and keep sagging at bay. thanks!

Mmm...I think the Clarisonic does many things but, yes, exfoliation is one. For more technical terminology on what it does, I would go straight to the website: www.clarisonic.com and see if it does anything you think would be helpful to you.

For skin plumpness and firming, I would do anything to increase your hydration. So, drink enough water and make sure you have Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) in your diet and/or supplement, look into taking HA (hyaluronic acid) internally. If you do a search on the EDS Forum, you will find multiple threads on HA supplements and benefits.

Look into things you cann do for yourself like acupressure / self facial massage. It will boost your circulation and keep thing more firm and healthy. Again, there are threads on these things on EDS (EDS really is a great resource!)
