I was reading the Dr Derma Roller's instructions and they recommended using ultrasonic scrubber..
and i went to ebay to look for it and there were a lot but which ones are the famous/more reliable ones?
Anyone has used this or had any success with it?

Hmm I've had two ultrasonic dermabrasion facials before. I can't say I saw too much of a difference. It was summer and my skin felt so clean and free of grime. I wasn't blown away however and they never have before and after pictures as they might with regular dermabrasion. |

If you search for Facemate on the Forum you should find allot of info - I believe it's a reputable device. Start here:

The Nuskin Galvanic Spa System seems to get quite a bit of press. I saw it demonstrated once and it looks pretty good - don't have any personal experience with it though. I don't think there's much on the Forum about it either - but Google it and check it out. |

I've been using the NuSkin for couple of weeks and love it. I use Aloe gel and works fine. It has helped me greatly with winkles and saggy skin. I love it. I got mine on ebay for 100 bucks and dont beat myself up of over the investment.
It gave me the proof that something can actually help my crappy skin, so I bought a Dermal Tone off ebay for 83 bucks and THAT has worked wonders. I'm amazed with the results.
So now I'm using Alphaderma Ce Kit, Nuskin, Derma Tone. I just ordered an Elizabeth Grant kit coming in mail the 15th to alternate with Alphaderma kit.
I love my Nuskin.

I think water soluble anything to conduct. I'm cheap so aloe gel has worked for me.

Is it possible to elaborate on what each device has done for you? You say that the Nuskin has helped with saggy skin - could I ask how old you are and if you have some sagging around the mouth and jowls? Has the Nuskin helped with this or do you think the Dermal Tone is more effective? I notice that the Dermal Tone is significantly cheaper than the Tua Viso.
Also, did you purchase the original Nuskin device or the Nuskin II and did it come with the facial gels?
Looking forward to more feedback on these two devices - thanks! |

I started out with Alphaderma CE kit and it worked so well for my skin by smoothing fine lines and even some deeper wrinkles even ones around my mouth. I felt like it tightened my skin but not dry. After about 3 weeks of that I began:
NuSkin and felt more tightning and smooother skin with even less fine lines and "ironing" of deeper wrinkles with a lifting around the eyes. More results of the upper lip lines,too.(Feel even more results the next day and third day after use like more plumpness.) Start out using 3 days in a row and now just 3 days a week. (at end of March will start using NuSkin just 2 days a week.) It came with solutions , but I'm using them just once a week and aloe gel and water the other two days to afford buying more solution.
After using the NuSkin for 2 weeks I began using:
Dermal Tone and honey it is the best thing in the world to work on those tired tissue and muscles of mine. I started out using it morning and night. Monday or Tuesday this week and saw results each time I used it. I use it now like 3 times a day if life's interruptions allow. Instructions say you may use it more than once aday as long as u leave 4 hours inbetween uses. It came with a small bottle of white lotion, but again I like aloe and water. This has tightened up my gobbler neck, plumped up my cheeks and my lips too! It's defined my jaw line,and helped sooo much with my eye area. My jowls and lines from corner of lips to chin are next to gone! Lip lines next to completely gone. My cheeks were crinkly like a road map which I hated so very very much. They are almost completely gone and I'm going for the baby's bottom smooth now, cuz I think it can happen after this short time of improvement.
I'm 56 yrs old and now look at least 5 years younger than when I started all three precious skin care aides

Texas - thanks very much for your informative reply. If you had to choose between the two devices, which one would you recommend first. I already have a UP5 face massager, which I think does a similar treatment to the Nuskin (although I'm not completely sure) so I was therefore leaning towards the Dermal Tone. However, I know that Dermal Tone is no longer trading - but if I could find a cheap one on Ebay like you did, I would probably give it a try.
However, I don't really want to buy any more useless gadgets I spent a fortune on the STOP and can't see any results from that. But I would dearly love to do something about my jowls and lips to chin pouches. I'm just a bit older than you, so we would be facing the same aging issues. Thanks for your advice. |

I think it's all 3 working together. I'm not an expert but if you have an UP5 I would think you wouldn't need the NuSkin. I got the Dermal Tone off of Ebay to try something and upgrade to a better device later passing my Dermal Tone to one of my daughters when I do. But I have found the Dermal Tone so easy to use I may keep it. If you can afford a better unit than Dermal Tone I would say to you, Go For It.
I'm just a woman trying things out in a way I can afford at this time. (I'm raising my two g-kids while daughter is living 2 hours away going to school studying to be a surgeons assistant, working part-time, so I'm always pinching pennies) The NuSkin and Dermal Tone are not the most sophisticated skin care tools out there but they are a nice try-out for now.
I tried some facial exercises for couple of days but they hurt my jaw and neck too bad to concider doing them long term.
I know that my results will slow down some time in as my face and skin get in better shape. I'm just glad to find a skin line that works for me right off the bat and a couple of devices to amp up the effects.
Knowing what I know from my own experience, and could only have one device it would be the Dermal Tone.
