The 15 Best Microcurrent Devices for a Snatched Jawline

Which one do dermatologists love? “The Trinity Facial Toning Device by Nuface,” says dermatologist Dr. Karan Lal. “This is the most widely used device. Patients love its ease of use. It’s affordable and fits in travel bags!” The Trinity device just got an upgrade with TRINITY+, which features a sleeker design and magnetic attachments and is now water-resistant. This set also comes with a gel to help the device easily glide on the skin, an anti-aging cream to maximize results, and a brush to apply the products mess-free.

NuFACE rating: 4.3/5 stars

What’s included: TRINITY+ Smart Advanced Facial Toning Device with Facial Trainer Attachment, Aqua Gel Activator 1.69 Oz, Silk Crème Activator 0.5 Oz, Clean Sweep Applicator Brush, Wireless Charging Cradle & Power Adapter, User Manual & Quick Start Guide

A NuFACE reviewer says: “I have used a lot of different skincare products over the years and am kind of a skincare addict, but I am new to using this sort of device. I have been consistently using the NuFACE Trinity+ Kit for over a month now and have definitely noticed a more lifted and toned result. At 41, I’ve experienced some facial sagging along with the usual fine lines. I love that this targets the deep tissue. The only challenge for me is just being consistent and working this into my routine, but it’s worth it in my opinion.”

Think of facial toning as a workout for your skin. This device is the Barry’s Bootcamp of the skin care device world, allowing you to sculpt your face and reduce signs of aging. “This is the second most popular device amongst my patients,” says Dr. Lal. “It has five intensities. It also has an anti-shock system, so it works with your skin.” The anti-shock system allows you to have a comfortable experience, with minimal tingling or zapping that can occur with other devices.

An Amazon reviewer says: “I’ve been using this device twice a day for the last couple months (may have skipped a few times but been consistent), and I have definitely seen results in the lift of my skin. I focus around my mouth and eye areas. The results are noticeable to me as well as my family members.”

If you’re a beauty obsessive, you may have accumulated a wide array of high-tech tools that spend more time in a drawer than on your face. This tool by TheraBody combines them all. By swapping out attachments, this tool becomes a microcurrent device, an LED therapy tool–which includes red, blue, and infrared therapy–a massager, and a cleansing tool. For an additional $99, you can also buy cooling and heating attachments for thermal therapy.

This device comes with an accompanying lifting gel that allows the tool to glide smoothly over areas needing extra toning. The two-pronged head makes this device ideal for running along the jaw and cheekbones, sculpting those areas, and providing contoured results. The device has two modes, toning and lifting, which you can alternate using every day for continuous results.

What’s included: Microcurrent Facial Toning System, Microcurrent Lifting Gel, 2 oz.

A Trophy Skin reviewer says: “I've used this for six weeks now, and I really can see and feel a difference in my facial muscle tone. It’s helped with the jowly sag I’ve been getting for the last several years and has given me a much more firm and healthy look without having to resort to invasive procedures.”

If your skincare goals include hopping in a time machine, this ZIIP microcurrent device might be the next best thing.

It contains microcurrent technology to exercise facial muscles, red light therapy for fine lines and texture, as well as vibration and heat therapy for improved circulation and skin soothing.

I already see incredible improvements in my frown lines and neck wrinkles! I travel a lot and it is very easy to pack, very light, so I take it with me wherever I go. I recommend this wand to everyone who needs it.”

This microcurrent device won’t take up precious space in your carry-on or bathroom shelf, making it a fan favorite. “This is an easy-to-use wand that is portable and has [a] red light, which has additional anti-inflammatory properties,” says Dr. Lal. When in use, the SolaWave device also becomes warm, which gives the skin an extra warming effect. This device helps soothe breakouts, reduce puffiness, and promote an even skin tone.

What’s Included: Solawave 4-in-1 Radiant Renewal Wand

An ELLE editor says: “What’s not to love? The device is small enough to travel seamlessly, and the shape allows you to get within the curvatures of the face. It takes 12 minutes to treat your face and is a great way to help your products seep in while providing slip. It’s on my vanity so I don’t forget to use it. The Jelly Mist provides great slip and also doubles as a nice hydrating mix.” — Danielle James, ELLE digital beauty director

What’s included: DermaWand® Pro, PreFace Treatment 2 oz, Skin Quench Serum 1.7 oz, Carrying bag for safe storage and travel organization, Beauty Guide

A DermaWand reviewer says: “I began using the DermaWand about 25 years ago; I was 46, had really abused my skin, iodine, and baby oil “bakes” in the ’60s, tanning beds in the 70’s-90’s. I woke up one day and realized, “If I don’t aggressively manage my skin, I’m gonna look like a shrew- SOON”! I purchased the DermaWand, really good OTC skin products, and sold my tanning bed! I’m so glad I did! Everyone comments on my youthful skin! I’m 71 now.”

If you want to be sure to target skin tightening in your skincare routine, this device was made for you. The Aephro Radio Frequency Machine gives you an instant facelift and is paired with cooling technology to calm the skin.

Amazon rating: 4.1/5 stars

What’s included: Aephro Microcurrent Facial Device, Boosting Gel, Gua Sha tool

An Amazon reviewer says: “Wow, this thing is awesome! I’ve been using it for less than a month and I can’t believe how much my skin has improved. It’s like having a spa at home. It has six modes that do different things for your skin, like cleaning, moisturizing, tightening, and cooling, and each of them are great.”

If you want to take your skincare game to another level, you should include this device in your beauty regimen. The MyoLift™ Mini Microcurrent Device shows results in as little as one week. After two weeks, your skin has an overall glow, a reduction in crow’s feet, and a minimization in redness.

7ewellness rating: 4.8/5 stars

What’s included: MyoLift Mini Device, 4oz Restore Gel, Applicator Probes, Charger, Lead Wires

A MyoLift™ Mini Microcurrent Device reviewer says: “I’ve been using this for 17 months now. I did the first 3-4 months three times a week and now use it once a week for maintenance. This difference between this device and the others on the market is the ‘erase’ function. I have used this to minimize my fine lines to the point I no longer use Botox. I used to have quite engrained marionette lines, which are now barely visible.”

This NuDerma High Frequency Wand set includes six therapy wands designed to target specific areas of the face that you feel need some TLC. This device uses the power of Argon and Neon for overall skin appearance.

Amazon rating: 4.4/5 stars

What’s Included: 1 NuDerma Professional High Frequency Handle, neon-powered mushroom wand, neon-powered Y-shape wand, neon-powered comb wand with Tungsten, argon-powered tongue wand, argon-powered bent wand, argon-powered rod wand with Tungsten, quick-start treatment guides, instruction and support contact manual.

A NuDerma user says: "I bought this for my 19-year-old daughter as a Christmas gift. She recently started breaking out on her face with severe cystic acne. I have already noticed a change after just two days. The size of the pimples shrink almost immediately! We combine the neon and argon during treatment, which is the most effective treatment for acne. I love how my face feels after these treatments.”

Electronic cleansing brushes are nothing new, but this device goes above and beyond the norm. Instead of just using rubber bristles and vibration, this tool uses microcurrents to lift and contour the face, while sonic vibrations massage and cleanse the skin. By improving circulation, you’ll be left with skin that feels tighter, more contoured, and with a better glow. Because this is a cleansing device, it’ll be easier to remember to use it if you’re prone to forgetting your devices.

CurrentBody rating: 4.8/5 stars

What’s Included: Ultrasonic Cleanser & Massager, Micro-USB charging cable, Charging cradle, User guide

A CurrentBody reviewer says: “I can feel my skin smoother and softer thanks to the physical exfoliation after the first time. After using it for three weeks, my skin absorbs my skincare really fast, almost some seconds for water-based treatments. That helps my skin look glower. I also like [the] anti-aging massage.”

NuFace dropped this smoothing serum set because they know it’s just what you need. This device instantly targets fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, mouth, and forehead. Both the device and serum duo are small enough to fit in your makeup bag for on-the-go skincare.

Nordstrom rating: 3.9/5 stars

What’s included: NuFACE FIX Line Smoothing Device, NuFACE FIX Line Smoothing Serum 0.5 oz., Protective cap, Micro USD cable, User manual and quick-start guide

A Nordstrom reviewer says: “This is my first NuFACE purchase, and I could see a difference from day one. I use it religiously, and I’m thrilled with the results at week two. The serum is empty before you know it though, so make sure to have a backup.”

This sunset-colored device combines five essential skincare functions into one tool that can fit in your pocket. The Laduora tool fuses red light therapy, blue light therapy, microcurrent technology, warmth, and massage for a no-fuss application. The accompanying serum contains niacinamide and peptides, which help boost the tool's properties and give a smoother complexion.

Amazon rating: 4.2/5 stars

What’s included: 5-in-1 Dual Color Light Therapy Wand, Light Enhancing Serum

There was a time when I had acne that popped out, then disappeared one day after using this product, which shocked me! Overall, this is a perfect product, easy to use, and [you] can actually see great results. I would highly recommend this product to anyone struggling with acne or acne scars.”
