Beauty and wellness tech has come a long way, and there are so many incredible innovations that sound too good to be true, like microcurrent devices that lift and snatch your jawline, red light therapy devices that soothe your acne, and cold laser therapy devices that minimize joint pain. These futuristic devices may seem like they’re making lofty claims, but once you’ve experienced one, you’ll be a believer for life. One of the most promising developments has been the in-office and powered-up versions of the at-home microcurrent device: the microcurrent facial.

Microcurrent facials utilize a low-grade electrical current to stimulate your facial muscles. The end result? Your face looks firmer, tighter, and more lifted—probably why it’s earned the nickname, “the non-invasive facelift.” The technique has actually been in use medically for about four decades as an FDA-approved treatment for Bell’s palsy and muscle paralysis.
