Do the tripollar and tua viso work the facial muscles? I already have the lightstim and it only works on the skin. Im looking for something that could possible imitate facial exercises because the tanaka massage while effective for me, gave me zits. flex effect left my face looking worse.
Lately I've been noticing that my jowls are getting obvious. Sad

Tuo viso works the muscles but it only tones them, so depends what your goals are with your face i.e. toning muscles versus building them.

Why did Flexeffects make your face worse? Did you get advice from trainers. I'm not a trainer but have to say I've had problems in my training at times, and stupidly put off going to them until someone encouraged me to do so and give them full credit that they all worked out a solution for me. Cathy, Loli and Seans all do so without charges so that may be worth trying too.

Time machine has been around for decades, foreverspring.com ($121 for machine + products). I've owned three since the early 90s - daily use does firm the facial muscles.

Got to play devils adovcate here but when you say it firmed your muscles, how old are you. Do you think it built new muscle or toned existing ones?

I do own a Tua Viso and found that it definitely toned my muscles and skin but it didn't do jack for building new muscle. Having said that there are sometimes exercises I do for areas like my lower lip that I never feel and feel it with the TV. I know some people do both, just generally interested in your thoughts (and think the original poster will be too)

I am 53 and first purchased the time machine about 20 years ago. I had droopy jowls at the time and they definitely lifted. I still use it periodically when time allows, it will make the facial muscles sore if used too long, like any other muscle w/lots of exercise.

If the Time Machine and the Tua Viso both tone facial muscles what is the difference between the two besides the price?

I love, love , love my face master! A lot of people scoff at it,(because of Suzanne Somers) but it works for me and the price is right.

There is a reservoir to be filled w/water on the Tua Viso. Time machine does not have this, you apply a conductor like their collagen skin quencher (I use dmae gel).

But other than that they both accomplish the same thing right?

I've not tried the TV but it appears that they operate in the same manner

The Time Machine was my first of many devices and a Connie Stevens was smart to use and market it. The Tua Viso works in a similar fashion but for me was more effective....stronger current. I still have it! Very Happy

I recently received the facemaster in the mail however havent used it yet, but it is supposed to work on the facial muscles rather than just the skin. You might be interested in opurchasing this product and is very affordable on ebay, i'll update with results.

Also Toby what have you found out those devices for facial muscles to work the best?
