The innovative technology delivering a healthy dose of anti-ageing
In a world where there is a gadget to fulfil almost your every need, it’s no wonder many of us want to take a tech break. But when it comes to beauty, this desire to constantly evolve and push the boundaries of what is possible is exactly why our complexions have never looked better.
We have access to everything, from LED light therapy to chic sculpting tools that target sun damage, redness, sagging skin, wrinkles, or acne without leaving your home. The use of microcurrents has shown to stimulate collagen and strengthen the skin, while exfoliating tools could enhance penetration of active ingredients into the skin. There are also handy tools that unclog pores and treat spots, as well as facial massage gadgets that mimic your body’s natural lymphatic system. These plug-in devices have been supercharged to such a level that you can postpone visiting a dermatologist, plastic surgeon, or an esthetician for some time.
We’ve collated the best investments, designed to ensure impressive results.
01. Nano Current Skincare Device
The phrase ‘it takes an army’ can firmly apply to Ziip Beauty’s Nano Current Skincare device as it has been developed by an expert team of electrical engineers, scientists, medical doctors, researchers and skincare experts. The app-controlled gadget is designed as a boot camp for your cells to encourage them to create elastin, collagen and moisture-retaining glycosaminoglycans. Easy to use, it works to delay or reverse existing signs of ageing by firming, lifting and re-densifying the complexion. It can even improve acne and scarring.

With so many products on the market promising to mask your pores, minimising this would be even more ideal. The threestep programme, developed by skincare guru Sarah Chapman, is everything you need to decongest your skin to reveal a brighter complexion. The suction technology mimics in-clinic extraction, minus the pain. Ultra-advanced thermo-therapy and ionic cleansing combine to warm and soften the skin while ultrasonic vibrations loosen congested pores from deep within the dermis, making the whole process quick and comfortable.

04. DRx SpectraLite FaceWare Pro
This sci-fi looking mask may seem daunting at first use, yet it’s praise has been widespread throughout the beauty industry. Feedback includes claims of it transforming the skin after just one 3-minute session while the brand itself promises a reduction in fine lines after just two weeks thanks to the Red LED lights that stimulate the natural production of collagen. We are however interested in the blue light that targets acne-causing bacteria – an issue many adults still struggle with. Although it’s not a sole solution, blue light has been known to heal and prevent inflammatory blemishes. Use as an addition to your routine rather than a single solution.

Even the best of the best need a little help getting to the areas of concern and this chic 24-karat-gold sculpting tool from Jillian Dempsey is here to help. The vibrations help the creams access every inch of your complexion while simultaneously stimulating facial muscles to define all your selfie angles.
