Hi
At last bought and used the Tua T'rend. Funky little device. Wink

For some reason my DVD does not work, and I can't get Tina Richards site to reply to some questions, (I am sure they are swamped)..so I apologize if I am asking old questions.

How long do the pink pads last on Tua Trend face/body? How many uses before you should replace? Also one of my pads, on second use, sort of disintigrated, and came detached from plastic under coating.

Also I bought the TT Face/body...did not realize it does not have set program for neck..bummer. Guess I needed the face and neck to get neck. So confusing. Do you think I can use the TT on my neck and just find a good position with contractions...or should I not try to invent my own thing? lol

Have yet to use on body, can't imagine spending that mucht time on self..OMG. How does anyone do it all. AALS, Safetox, TV or TT, etc etc. I might as well lay at home all day and fix my face..ha ha. Not so much.

thanks everyone and happy, healthy holidays

Hi! I only recently got one as well, so can't help with the lifespan of the little sponges, but may be able to help with the DVD. Mine didn't play either.

I copied the AUDIO TS and VIDEO TS folders off the DVD and put them in a folder on my desktop. I launched the DVD player, then in that program went to File>Open and navigated to the folder on my desktop and selected that VIDEO TS folder. That seems to work fine. I have a Mac, so I'm not sure if that works exactly the same on a PC or not, but it's worth a shot.

The neck program on mine (which is the face only version) uses program 4, same as the jaw.

TT's can be used on face but have not used on neck. It firms up the jaw line and same is the case with upper face.

Thanks for the replies. I got mine to work, and am using it regularly, but think my placements are off. I will adjust. WOW if you use it on a place it is not meant to be, it can zing the heck out' of ya, lol. Bad Grin

I did not know it didn't have a neck program, which is a bummer. I should have bought face and neck since I probably will never use body one due to nerve issues and time. I wonder why there isn't some position to help w/forhead wrinkles. I know there are positions right over the eyebrow but i feel like they hit the "over eye" area and not forehead.

I have been doing this skin care stuff pretty consistenly for a few years and wish I saw more progress....Patience Young Grasshopper..lol.

Thanks so much for replies.

Thanks much.
My NL lines are the issue I hate the most, thin face, not too wrinkled...but NL lines deep on one side.

AHH to be 20 again, Laughing

Hi and thanks

Smart idea

I am sort of winging it, which is silly I know. I will end up looking like a wretched old lady with asymetrical face if I don't start paying attention to positions. Rolling Eyes

Red, the Tua face version does have a neck exercise. There is a video on YouTube (basically what's on the DVD)

Ack! I'm still too new to post a link, but if you search on Tua Trend Face on YouTube, you'll get the video.

It *does* take awhile to get placement right. I swear it took forever the first week to figure it out, and I still have to think about it.

From everything I've read here, it's OK to start out at low intensity so you shouldn't have to zap yourself. If I'm not on the right spot, I can tell that it's not buzzing and/or flexing in the area shaded by purple in the manual, but I don't get zapped.

Hi - redcat here, had to resign up for forum. thanks for reply. You using this on body at all? OMG I can't believe it, it seems like it would take 10 hours to do half your body. Each program is like 20-30 minutes...just for one small area of body, just cant imagine anyone has time. I love how it feels, just can't see finding enough time for body....darn. I like the TT for face, not sure what it is doing but feels good...and bad, ha ha. lol Bad Grin
