Rio 60 Second Face Lift Facial Toner

Product Information

This brilliant device is great for both men and women because it’s a pretty natural way to enhance features that have….um, shall we say dropped or aren’t so firm as they once were. Tone, lift and rejuvenate your face with Lift Plus 60 Second Face Lift from Rio – the beauty specialists. To explain why this is cool in non-nerdie terms, it means that the current is pushing the ingredients deeper into the skin, bringing about better results than a hooman could get with their bare hands. When to avoid EMS

As we age, our facial muscles lose tone and wrinkles become more defined. Lift Plus features two treatments to tone, lift and rejuvenate the face. I continued to use it four times a week. I wasn’t sure it was doing anything and to be honest I kept wondering whether my first assumption was right. It wasn’t actually working properly. But it was and sorry to say, this machine is not for me. Rio 60 Second FaceliftThere are four treatment programmes; Firming, Extended Firming, Tap Toning and Infusion. The first three programmes are faradic and the last, galvanic, with each programme offering a different benefit to your beauty regime. I loved the conductor gel as it was really very hydrating. Not like other gels I had used with the Rio. I started to use the NuFace and…..nothing. I looked at it over and over. All seemed to be okay. The lights were on but absolutely nothing seemed to be happening. No tingling sensation even. It’s clearly broken I thought. Second Face Lift target tones by gently exercising the facial muscles in short 60 second treatments. I read that the two little lights on the right of the machine indicate the highest setting. That was the one for me. Programme 1: FIRMING - Rhythmic 2 second muscle contractions to condition muscles with a short 3 second interval between each pulse.

Regular treatments should be carried out to achieve longer lasting results. How should I prepare my skin for treatment? The forehead can require higher intensity levels than normally used on other areas of the face, however it is important to remember to return to lower intensity by pressing the - button several times before returning to treat the facial area. Well, yes actually. It does this because of the tightening and firming of the muscle in whichever area you are treating. By pulling the muscle tight, it also makes it stronger and that in turn pulls the skin tighter, making lines less visible. My Conclusion As EMS is stimulating - well, it’s even in the name - it shouldn’t be used on areas of pustular acne (ie. red, raised spots or whiteheads), rosacea, sensitive skin, damaged skin or on scars, moles or varicose veins. Care should also be taken in the eye area, with Rio stating to leave at least 1cm between the device and the eyeball at all times. Practised for over 40 years in beauty salons, faradic facial toning uses EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) to gently contract and relax facial muscles to help tone, lift and tighten. This stimulation also increases local circulation, bringing more oxygen to the skin cells and removing toxins more rapidly, to leave the skin feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

Thank you, 21st century, as now, the wonder that is EMS can be experienced in your home via handheld device. We’ve finally launched one on the store and Team Nerd are a-buzzing. Meet the Rio 60 Second Face Lift .

How long can I leave the patches on for? The majority of the infusion happens in the first 5-15 minutes on each treatment area, but the patches may remain on the face for up to one hour. Programme 2: TAP TONING - Rapid stimulating action. The pulsing massage action lasts 5 seconds followed by a 3 second pause. How should I store the patches? Because retinol easily breaks down you should store the patches, in a cool dry place away from sunlight. You may even prefer to store them in the refrigerator to have a cooling gel patch for treatment. After removing patches, you can massage any residue into your skin. After use, switch the unit off. Press and hold the programme/on/off button for 2 seconds. Note: If unit is left on, it will automatically switch off after 10 minutes. The green led continually flashes on & off, is this right? Yes, after selecting your required program, there will be a brief pause before the green led begins to flash on & off throughout the treatment.

It is important to note that if you stop doing it, the effects won’t remain. It has to be done frequently and long-term to see true results, as the results build over time. So, exactly like working out the rest of you! How to work out your face at home Programme 1: Firming Rhythmic muscle contractions to condition muscles with a short interval between each pulse. Muscle contractions last 2 seconds followed by a 3 second pause. There are 17 power levels in total. We recommend starting on a low power level on each treatment area and build up until muscle contractions are felt.

For best results follow the faradic facial toning regime every day for the first few weeks, alternating between programmes 1 & 2 each day. As a safety feature the unit will always start at the lowest intensity and increase gradually with each Thoroughly clean and dry skin. Do not apply moisturisers. Tear along the perforated edge of the Collagen and Retinol patch sachet. All handheld EMS machines come with their own instructions and we always recommend that you follow the directions with your device carefully.

My Conclusion

EMS stands for Electronic Muscle Stimulation, When you undertake any movement the brain produces signals that are sent to the muscles, which cause them to contract and expand. EMS mimics these signals from the brain and causes the muscles to move repeatedly to reproduce the effects of exercise. Who wouldn’t want a facelift machine without having to shell out a few thousand pounds? Firstly I’d say that 60 seconds is a little misleading. It’s 60 per area, so once you’ve treated all of the areas suggested, you’re really looking at 20 minutes. This is where the pain comes in. I have a very low pain threshold it has to be said. I am such a baby. My husband says I say Ouch for nothing, just like a reflex action.
