STOP vs. Anti-Aging Light Stim

Please forgive me if this question has been asked. I searched and couldn't find an answer.

I'm trying to decide between the Tripollar STOP and AntiAging LightStim. I've got some extra flesh around my mouth (mouth pouches) that I am trying to firm up.

I've heard good and bad about both machines. Anybody have success firming up the mouth area with either device?

Thanks in advance!

I have and like both devices and think the Stops is great for tightening skin and Lightstim for plumping it up and giving a smooth creamy complexion. But for firming up around the mouth neither did that for me....facial exercises are the only thing that has lift jowls and any true sag. If you are doing facial exercises these devices can kick it up a gear but without the facial exercises I couldn't have achieved my goals of lifting the lower face. You might be younger and just beginning to need some help and they might be more effective for you used alone. Wink

Thanks, Toby! I'm 32 so it's not a huge problem - just the one area this is starting to show age.

I'm doing facial exercises and wanted to augment my results with a device. It sounds like the Stop might be my best bet.

Thanks!

Hello,
I;m twenty four and currently alternate between those two devices every second night. I purchased the STOP after having the professional Refirme procedure done and have to say it has definitly given the face an extra lift. I do use LED but have only just purchased the AALS, LED has given me some results but just believe more of them are attributed to the STOP. I have jowels and for a twenty four year old my skin does suffer from a bit of sag but having said that, it seems my face is not the only area that this has occurred on. It's not from weight loss (have a great metabolism) its more likely due to genetics. Am definitly interested in face-a-size Razz

but am a bit worried about it possibly worsening fine lines. I just purchased the Pengu system, fingers crossed. Wink

Hi, I am new. I am 41 and looking for ways to improve my skin (aren't we all). I have purchased Stop due to the comments and photos on this website. So thanks for taking the time to share your experience.

Your welcome, Have found this forum very useful for information. Do you have any concerns about your skin specifically or is it prevention? A 0.25 dermaroller will be quite helpful for product penetration (expect much faster results via this method) or an ultrasound device (which are typically more expensive) but both useful for prevention. Never do treatments two nights in a row and alternate. Smile
