I remember getting my first RF skin tightening treatment when I was only 20 because of a scar caused by a dog bite. I was lucky that I had an experienced dermatologist who really knows what she is doing. She showed me her treatment room when I first met her and even showed me the machine she will use at my first session. She also answered all the questions I had, made sure I was comfortable before beginning and instructed me that altough the sensation will be pleasant and the warmth feels relaxing, I should let her know if I feel it's too hot. At that age she prefered to do 10 minute sessions and recently she started doing 15 minute sessions. Time runs fast during the treatment because we keep chatting about different subjects. From patient perspective, even through the name sounds frightening, the treatment feels so relaxing it's easy to fall asleep during it!
It's only really when we did the edit and I saw the before and afters right next to each other that I realised the extent of the difference, particularly along my jawline and jowls. It just shows what you can do at home : )
Claire you look smashing! I could see the difference in your face (especially jowl area) before you even did the before and afters. I have recently purchased a Lumo on the back of your January video and I have to say I'm loving the results after only one month. At 55 I will give just about anything a go, but I am really happy with the Lumo twice weekly combined with Nuface microcurrent every other day. Thanks for this great before and after video and let me just say, your hair looks brilliant in this video!! 😊💕
Aww, thank you. I’ve made big strides with my hair recently. It was getting sooo dry and unruly. So glad you’re getting good results. Technology has come so far 😊
@@thehonestchannel You need to let me in on some of your hair secrets! My hair has gotten so dry over the last couple of years. I'm at my wits end with what to do with it!
@@celtictrinity77 Using a conditioning wash has really helped czcams.com/video/D37s2pCsEO8/video.html That’s a link to my review of the one I use. I also recently invested in Dyson straightening irons which are supposed to protect your hair from heat damage and I think are helping. Review to follow 😄
I was thinking of buying the Lumo as it claims it will not cause facial fat loss as compared to the Tri Pollar deice. According to them, the Lumo has been designed to preserve fat as it's targeting is limited to a controlled penetration depth band between 1.5 mm to 4 mm. They claim the fat pad sits at 6 mm or deeper in the dermis, so the RF waves do not interact with the fat layer at all, which ensures collagen synthesis is unregulated without heating the fat pad. I am somewhat leery due to my age - can't afford to lose any more facial fat!
Quite right to tread carefully. She said the Lumo initially heats the skin to 60 Celsius for 20 seconds. Fat loss starts at 42 Celsius. So for 20 seconds it's playing 'chicken' with your face. Not a game I'd want to play.
Thank you so much for all the information you shared about Lumo. I have MLay, and afraid to use it on my face to lose fat. Considering buying either Lumo or Tripollar Stop - I hear they are safe on face
I don’t think you can give any guarantees when it comes to fat loss with RF in that it’s possible in theory - in practice I haven’t had any problems with careful use.
Hi I know this a year later but I do use the MLay except I only have it on my whole face and neck and forehead for 10 minutes one or twice a week. I’m very very conscious of fat loss and truthfully I think it’s making a difference for sure. I’ve watched other influencers use is for 25 minutes on their faces and I won’t. Yes you have to keep using it but I figure that’s ok. I hope this helps.
I really love the NEWA RF device for at home use. It heats up to 52 Celcius max and you do 4minutes per area of the skin before moving on to the next. It uses the 3DEEP RF technology made by EndyMed, which makes in office Radio Frequency machines. I use red light therapy separately with a Red Light therapy panel. I finish off with Tretinoin before bed. You have gotten great results too! Your skin texture looks better, less wrinkles around the eyes, and appears to be more volume.
@7:41 I see a difference to your under eyes but it is hard to say as your expressions are slightly different as well. It is very very hard to get a comparison and I understand that. The background and lighting are different too and again I am saying it is terribly hard to make it the same. I have tried it myself. I do not think the Lumo has done anything for tightening your lower face. By the way I ordered the Lumo but they sent me the wrong machine. So I decided not to get it in the end. I bought the MBK Curve instead as it can be used on the body as well, plus the Lumo's EMS is very strong for practically everybody so what is the point of having a few settings. I agree for anything to be significant depending on the individual's condition, in office treatment or even face lift is the ultimate solution. Thanks so much for the video update. :)
I thought the two side by side shots were almost identical in angle and I could see a big difference along the jaw and jowl area. I like to leave it to viewers though to make their own minds up on the level of difference. I’d be interested to hear how you get on with the MBK Curve. Hope it works out well for you!
I paid 357.18GBP for the LUMO and VENUS. That included paying 15.28GBP for Express International Shipping. I just received a giant box with a packing sticker claiming it weighs 4lbs. The only thing in the box was a piece of paper and the VENUS device which weighs 43grams (not even an invoice). I called the company and was told it was due to a delay in the warehouse and the high demand. She stated they must have intended to ship it out separately even though I have never received anything saying that and the information on the shipping label is FABRICATED. I informed her that if I did not receive information including a tracking number immediately, I would call my credit card company and open a case for a fraudulent charge. Buyers BEWARE!
I'm really sorry to hear this. The company is in liquidation and not responding to my emails at the moment. The good news is you paid by credit card and they should refund the cost to you if you raise a dispute with them.
I HAVE read that if you are over 40, you can use this 3x a week. I'm 66 with lots of sagging and need to be more vigilant with my treatments. I have used it about 5x in two months and don't see any visible results just yet.
Yes, I’m 49 and was well under the maximum recommended use times for my age. I would certainly try using it at a higher setting a couple of times a week, but remember to take pictures to chart your progress : )
@@holt7088 The makers of the Lumo suggest leaving a minimum of two days between treatments if you're over 40 and 3 days if you're under 40. You definitely don't want to be using radiofrequency daily, because you want to give your skin a bit of recovery time in between. I don't think you can liken the Lumo with facial yoga and jowl exercises because they are two very different things. RF is heating the deeper layers of your skin to stimulate collagen production and should be used less frequently, microcurrent will exercise the muscles but you can use that almost daily.

@@alessandrobottero6544 Ah, so I know the Foreo Bear although I’ve not used it. It’s got a lot of fans but to the best of my knowledge it is not an RF device. It uses both micro current and sonic pulsations to lift and tone.

Hi. Great review. I was going to buy Newa. Did a lot of research but wondering if I whould buy this inatead. Im starting mybresearch again. Have you eber tried the Newa? If you want to work on fine lines and toning Im assuming both are good but wondering if one is slightly better than the other? I have the ziip, red light panel, use the anma & gua sha tools
I haven’t tried the Newa but as long as you’re sticking to a well-known brand they should work similarly. Sharing this interview for safety info czcams.com/video/l7BPdR6_uxY/video.html
Hi. There’s an instruction guide that comes with the device but I also run through some of that info in this video czcams.com/video/RdHO8o5MFRA/video.html Hope it helps!
With the LUMO, are you just using the radio frequency mode (RF) or do you use the EMS+Photon? I bought one about a month ago and love it along with the VENUS.
I mix it up a bit. On a lazy day I just use RF and if I'm ready to take the current I'll use it in EMS, sometimes ENI. I think the EMS mode is very good for deep stimulation of the muscles but I find it uncomfortable at the upper levels so I tend to do that once a month (but I use another microcurrent device daily) and do RF only once a month as well. Glad to hear you're happy with yours.
Thanks for sharing! I have the Lumo and after about 4 months it does not seem to be warming in RF mode as much as it was. The website claims it is still working even if you don't feel any warmth. Is this your experience as well?
Does this combine the RF and red light therapy in 1? Trying to find a product for both to save money. Can you recommend a more budget friendly product that does everything in 1?
It does both use red light and RF. I’m not aware of a lower cost device that does both but there are low cost LED masks and separate RF devices. This also includes microcurrent and blue light.
Just a suggestion that I heard. A good plant nursery red light panel will work just as well as a more expensive red light panels that are sold specifically for beauty. I did some checking on Amazon (US) a HQPR 660 nm 14 watt 225 LED Pure Grow Light had good reviews from people that were using it for their face and body. If you are a do-it-yourself type person, I am guessing you could wire maybe 4 on the back of a door to give yourself a full body red light treatment … the full body panel devices I had seen sold for beauty aids were up to US$2,000!, so if you bought 4 of these plant red lights (not counting any hardware items you would need from the hardware store) would run you about US $200. Or just buy the one panel for under US$50. Note that this is solely a red light, and it does not have blue light for acne, nor RF, nor micro current.
I stepped back from using energy-based treatments other than laser and red light a little while back when I decided to go easier on my skin. The different modalities on this device did make it a powerful choice.
Clare, I just saw a YT ad for Rachel River's Facelift Wand and you are in it (quite briefly, a flash of your photo). Is that a product you have tried and recommend?
Oh no. My heart sinks every time I hear something like this. I have never even heard of this product but they have taken footage of me discussing the NuFace and planted it in an ad without permission. Total fraud. Unfortunately it's happening all the time : (
Hi Delilah. So glad you enjoy the reviews. It’s a powerful device that you can feel penetrating the skin so I think the mix of radio frequency and microcurrent would theoretically be good to try for ‘orangepeel’ and certainly for the lines. If you do try it I’d love to hear how you get on.
Love this review thank you. Might be a silly question but in comparison to the omnilux led mask is this a lot different? I was thinking about that one but after seeing your review I’m not sure. I’m wanting for firming, toning and acne rosacea Thank you 😊
I’ve not used the Omnilux but these masks will be pretty similar so I would look at the price points and which represents greater value for you. I’ve also heard that CurrentBody’s own LED mask is a good lower cost option.
@@jaynemurdoch-photographyan5092 It’s not a silly question 😀 The Lumo is a radiofrequency device that warms deeper layers of your skin but also uses red and blue light and microcurrent. The Omnilux mask and similar products use LED light to stimulate skin cells so it will have a more gradual, gentler effect. RF is a bit more powerful so you would expect faster more dramatic results. The masks are a nice gentle approach to anti-aging though. Hope that helps!
Hi. Thanks for your question! I used it weekly initially and started to see results after just a few uses. I would say results then built over the next few weeks and then I started to scale back after about two months.
Hello, I’ve recently bought the Lumo, using the EMS mode, I didn’t feel any contractions at all, even on the highest level. The sales team at Evenskyn said that it’s normal not to feel anything. Is there any truth to what they are saying. Thanks
I’m surprised you can’t feel anything at all on the highest setting. Are you using a conducting gel or serum of any kind? The way to double check would be to wet your face and then use it. If you still can’t feel anything then that sounds like there is no current. Let me know and I will contact them on your behalf if you still don’t feel anything.
I used hyaluronic acid. I tried with water as you suggested and I can feel it now. Then tried the hyaluronic serum again, but I apply quite a lot of it so that it’s quite wet and it worked. Probably didn’t apply enough of it before, thanks for the advice.
Do you think I can get away with using it on my body? I want to use it on my abs in addition to my face/neck. Trying to decide between this one or the Mlay rf machine. I'm 39.
Do you use it twice a week or twice a month now? I’m 37, I’ve only been using once (5min) a week, RF only and the ION cleanse mode at level 4 for the whole face. I don’t really have signs of aging yet but I use it to prevent or delay the aging process. I’m not sure if I’ve been doing it right or enough. I’m confuses as to use it once or twice a week and for how long…
Hi. I stopped using the Lumo last summer to test out other products but intend to start using it again for maintenance and I would just be doing that once or twice a month at a lower setting. I try to use these devices as sparingly as possible because of the risk of fat loss so that you're balancing the benefits against the risks. Hope that helps!
@@thehonestchannel Yes, I’m scared of the fat loss but Lumo says to use twice a week (under 40). I don’t see any maintenance mode. If I use it biweekly, how long do you think I should use it for? I don’t use the EMS (I use my Nuface 3x a week). Just RF and ION cleanse mode.
@@1586pame As frustrating as it is, I can't give clear guidance around safe use as we don't have really any good quality scientific studies to support it. All I can say is I would try to use it sparingly, potentially once or twice a month when you are only using it for preventative purposes. If you feel you need to step it up as you age then let your skin guide you as to frequency.
Sagging cheeks, yes, the forehead is more difficult because I’m treating it at a lower energy level to guard against the low risk of fat loss so I’ve not seen a big change there, though possibly some marginal tightening.
Is it true that this home device machine is not allowed with a heart problem? Why is that? I thought thats only for surgery that you need a medical abstract
Any device that includes microcurrent is not recommended for use if you have a pace maker in case it disrupts the signal. Similarly I think you're recommended to take medical advice before using any form of microcurrent if you have a heart condition.
Is anyone mixing the Luma with an infrared-ish LED mask? I have sooo many eye wrinkles not sure the Lumo can get that close to the eyes. & I don’t want to buy eye 👓 only LED.
Not enough research has been done around this but I do think there is a risk, though it’s smaller for at-home devices. It’s something that I’m trying to learn more about but I discuss it in this follow-up czcams.com/video/WgXccuB8dOI/video.html
Hello, Thank your for your helpful videos. Could you please tell me if this Lumo RF device can be used WITHOUT conductive gel?! Also, if you do recommend this for slight jowl tightening, could you please list a trustworthy link for U.S. shoppers? Thank you again!🤗
Hi Julie. We don’t have any studies that would inform an opinion on that but from personal experience I would go easy on your skin and get used to the tretinoin first
@@thehonestchannel yes, you really have to. But I am a skin therapist with many years of practice and have worked with radio frequency that means I have deep knowledge about this method , still my facial fat got damaged on one side. So I do think it’s very important that people think twice before trying this device. And not believe celebrities that advertise these devices. They probably got them for free and only use them for the picture and likes. take care people !
@@lyudmylaklykova8211 If you are looking for something to help with a little toning then I'd go for a microcurrent device, if it's something to help with more visible jowls, for instance, I'd go with the Lumo but use any RF-based device cautiously and on a lower setting, especially to begin with. It's quite powerful.
Can u please tell me where I can find a radio frequency tool with a 3Mhz frequency?? I find 1 or 2 and I want a device that promote fat loss for face but I can’t seem to find one 😩😭😭😭
I honestly couldn’t recommend that you buy a device that actively targets facial fat. I don’t know your age but it could be something you later regret. Most at-home devices are not powerful enough to go that deep anyway so I would recommend you look at something like microcurrent or a face gym device - or go to see an aesthetics professional who is a doctor or nurse to discuss fat loss options.
@@thehonestchannel thank you for ur reply 🙏🏻 I initially wanted to use the RF device on my nose to spot reduce the fat because I have a fat nose tip but can you suggest to me other devices that might help me instead ??
Where MHz is concerned, 1MHz is 3x stronger than 3MHz. I don't recommend you purposely try to do this either, you could easily disfigure yourself. This is not something to play around with at home. But wanted to clarify that 1MHz is much stronger than 3MHz, and its longer wavelength penetrates significantly deeper.
the 3 photos u put up um sorry no difference in your skin or is it how many times you use it if u use it twice a month no change but if u are using it 3 times probably a difference but sorry nope there is no change to your skin
@@thehonestchannel you look nowhere near it, which is why I follow you as what you’re doing is working 😊 thanks for all the really informative content you put out!
if you're going to post results, the pics need to be in the same light, same makeup or no makeup and close to the same position as possible. most of these pics have before with no makeup and after with full face makeup. of course they're gonna look better with makeup. please please quit misleading us! not just these pics but all on internet!
I couldn’t give you a definitive on that because it hasn’t been researched. The standard advice would be to give Botox a couple of weeks to take full effect before using at- home devices and it shouldn’t cause a significant impact on the results
I remember getting my first RF skin tightening treatment when I was only 20 because of a scar caused by a dog bite. I was lucky that I had an experienced dermatologist who really knows what she is doing.

With the LUMO, are you just using the radio frequency mode (RF) or do you use the EMS+Photon? I bought one about a month ago and love it along with the VENUS.
I mix it up a bit. On a lazy day I just use RF and if I'm ready to take the current I'll use it in EMS, sometimes ENI. I think the EMS mode is very good for deep stimulation of the muscles but I find it uncomfortable at the upper levels so I tend to do that once a month (but I use another microcurrent device daily) and do RF only once a month as well. Glad to hear you're happy with yours.
@@thehonestchannel Thank you for the information. I look forward to your next review!
@@victoriamccollum4129 Thanks for watching Victoria!
@@thehonestchannel which microcurrent device do you use daily
@@bev6918 I now use the Phoenix from EvenSkyn. Just about to publish a review. Previously I used the NuFace. Both are good.
Any sideffects like headaches??
I am curious as well.
Thanks for sharing! I have the Lumo and after about 4 months it does not seem to be warming in RF mode as much as it was. The website claims it is still working even if you don't feel any warmth. Is this your experience as well?
I did feel warmth when using the RF mode but I have an older model. I would email EvenSkyn directly and ask them to explain why it isn't warming up.
When using radio frequency, you don’t linger and hold the gadget or the probe you need to keep moving the probe constantly
Does this combine the RF and red light therapy in 1? Trying to find a product for both to save money. Can you recommend a more budget friendly product that does everything in 1?
It does both use red light and RF. I’m not aware of a lower cost device that does both but there are low cost LED masks and separate RF devices. This also includes microcurrent and blue light.
Just a suggestion that I heard. A good plant nursery red light panel will work just as well as a more expensive red light panels that are sold specifically for beauty. I did some checking on Amazon (US) a HQPR 660 nm 14 watt 225 LED Pure Grow Light had good reviews from people that were using it for their face and body. If you are a do-it-yourself type person, I am guessing you could wire maybe 4 on the back of a door to give yourself a full body red light treatment … the full body panel devices I had seen sold for beauty aids were up to US$2,000!, so if you bought 4 of these plant red lights (not counting any hardware items you would need from the hardware store) would run you about US $200. Or just buy the one panel for under US$50. Note that this is solely a red light, and it does not have blue light for acne, nor RF, nor micro current.
Ohhh I can see the lift ! Are you still using this?
I stepped back from using energy-based treatments other than laser and red light a little while back when I decided to go easier on my skin. The different modalities on this device did make it a powerful choice.
Clare, I just saw a YT ad for Rachel River's Facelift Wand and you are in it (quite briefly, a flash of your photo). Is that a product you have tried and recommend?
Oh no. My heart sinks every time I hear something like this. I have never even heard of this product but they have taken footage of me discussing the NuFace and planted it in an ad without permission. Total fraud. Unfortunately it's happening all the time : (
Hi Claire, do you think Lumo can reduce vertical lines on the jaw en orangeskin on the chin? thank you, love your honest reviews
Hi Delilah. So glad you enjoy the reviews. It’s a powerful device that you can feel penetrating the skin so I think the mix of radio frequency and microcurrent would theoretically be good to try for ‘orangepeel’ and certainly for the lines. If you do try it I’d love to hear how you get on.
Love this review thank you. Might be a silly question but in comparison to the omnilux led mask is this a lot different? I was thinking about that one but after seeing your review I’m not sure. I’m wanting for firming, toning and acne rosacea
Thank you 😊
I’ve not used the Omnilux but these masks will be pretty similar so I would look at the price points and which represents greater value for you. I’ve also heard that CurrentBody’s own LED mask is a good lower cost option.
Thank you 😊
Is led a very different thing from the luma? Sorry hope that’s not a silly question 😊
@@jaynemurdoch-photographyan5092 It’s not a silly question 😀 The Lumo is a radiofrequency device that warms deeper layers of your skin but also uses red and blue light and microcurrent. The Omnilux mask and similar products use LED light to stimulate skin cells so it will have a more gradual, gentler effect. RF is a bit more powerful so you would expect faster more dramatic results.
The masks are a nice gentle approach to anti-aging though. Hope that helps!
Fantastic thank you 😊
Born in Northern Ireland and lived/living in Scotland?
Born and living in Scotland 🏴 You’re not the first to hear an Irish twang though!
Is RF beneficial for yellow skin? Do I have more risks of getting hyperpigmentation?
The answer is no, you can use without risk to have Hyperpigmentation but after radiofrequency wear sunscreen
I thought you were supposed to do it circles? are you worried about losing fat in your face?
Thank you!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this. So when you were a beginner how often did you use it until you saw results? The jowls you had are gone. More plump and round.
Hi. Thanks for your question! I used it weekly initially and started to see results after just a few uses. I would say results then built over the next few weeks and then I started to scale back after about two months.
Does this device work on men too ?
Can i use it directly on my skin with massage gel..without sheet mask?
Whats the difference between radio frequency and mesotherapy and microcurrent ?????
Hi! Thanks for the review. Do you know any place to buy it in Europe? I'm afraid to have to pay if buying from the US.
I think they’re still only selling via their own website I’m afraid.
After serum can use red or blue light??
What about the under eye area? Need advice for a device safe to use under eye area.
Red light, microcurrent, microneedling and a basic facial roller would be my go-tos
Hello, I’ve recently bought the Lumo, using the EMS mode, I didn’t feel any contractions at all, even on the highest level. The sales team at Evenskyn said that it’s normal not to feel anything. Is there any truth to what they are saying. Thanks
I’m surprised you can’t feel anything at all on the highest setting. Are you using a conducting gel or serum of any kind? The way to double check would be to wet your face and then use it. If you still can’t feel anything then that sounds like there is no current.
Let me know and I will contact them on your behalf if you still don’t feel anything.
I used hyaluronic acid. I tried with water as you suggested and I can feel it now. Then tried the hyaluronic serum again, but I apply quite a lot of it so that it’s quite wet and it worked. Probably didn’t apply enough of it before, thanks for the advice.
Glad I found your post. Thought mine was faulty as well but after trying water could definitely notice the difference. 👍🏼
The jowl is lifted a bit. Yes that’s good.
Do you think I can get away with using it on my body? I want to use it on my abs in addition to my face/neck. Trying to decide between this one or the Mlay rf machine. I'm 39.
The makers say it can be used on the arms, thighs and abdomen.
Do you use it twice a week or twice a month now? I’m 37, I’ve only been using once (5min) a week, RF only and the ION cleanse mode at level 4 for the whole face. I don’t really have signs of aging yet but I use it to prevent or delay the aging process. I’m not sure if I’ve been doing it right or enough. I’m confuses as to use it once or twice a week and for how long…
Hi. I stopped using the Lumo last summer to test out other products but intend to start using it again for maintenance and I would just be doing that once or twice a month at a lower setting. I try to use these devices as sparingly as possible because of the risk of fat loss so that you're balancing the benefits against the risks. Hope that helps!
@@thehonestchannel Yes, I’m scared of the fat loss but Lumo says to use twice a week (under 40). I don’t see any maintenance mode. If I use it biweekly, how long do you think I should use it for? I don’t use the EMS (I use my Nuface 3x a week). Just RF and ION cleanse mode.
@@1586pame As frustrating as it is, I can't give clear guidance around safe use as we don't have really any good quality scientific studies to support it. All I can say is I would try to use it sparingly, potentially once or twice a month when you are only using it for preventative purposes. If you feel you need to step it up as you age then let your skin guide you as to frequency.
Will this help for scars ?
Does it help the 11s and crow’s feet? Have you noticed it to be useful for forehead wrinkles, saggy cheeks?
Sagging cheeks, yes, the forehead is more difficult because I’m treating it at a lower energy level to guard against the low risk of fat loss so I’ve not seen a big change there, though possibly some marginal tightening.
So, using this isn't a permanent fix for skin? If you stop using it, you lose it?
We can't stop the aging process, so these devices only offer temporary results.
Is it true that this home device machine is not allowed with a heart problem? Why is that? I thought thats only for surgery that you need a medical abstract
Any device that includes microcurrent is not recommended for use if you have a pace maker in case it disrupts the signal. Similarly I think you're recommended to take medical advice before using any form of microcurrent if you have a heart condition.
What happens when you burn the skin ??
Is anyone mixing the Luma with an infrared-ish LED mask? I have sooo many eye wrinkles not sure the Lumo can get that close to the eyes. & I don’t want to buy eye 👓 only LED.
I use an infrared mask a couple of times a week as well, and use a red light pen around my eyes.
I thought one could only use this device up to 24 ? mins a week for 40 yrs and older.
Do you worry about the device causing fat loss?
Not enough research has been done around this but I do think there is a risk, though it’s smaller for at-home devices. It’s something that I’m trying to learn more about but I discuss it in this follow-up czcams.com/video/WgXccuB8dOI/video.html
I just watched a few videos of people using this and they all keep the device continually moving when using the RF.
Yes, its a good idea to keep it moving.
Hello, Thank your for your helpful videos. Could you please tell me if this Lumo RF device can be used WITHOUT conductive gel?! Also, if you do recommend this for slight jowl tightening, could you please list a trustworthy link for U.S. shoppers? Thank you again!🤗
Hi Jennifer. It can be used with any water-based serum such as hyaluronic acid for best results. The link in the description is a global one.
@@thehonestchannel Thank you!
What I always wonder…is this light safe for eyes?
No, I wouldn’t use RF around the eyes. The skin is too thin there.
They don't work. I know so many people who have used these devices, none lifted anything.
Can I use the Lumo if I just started using tretinoid cream? Thank you!
Hi Julie. We don’t have any studies that would inform an opinion on that but from personal experience I would go easy on your skin and get used to the tretinoin first
@@thehonestchannel Thank you! ❤
I heard RF results in loss of facial fat. Is that true?
This video explores the risks czcams.com/video/l7BPdR6_uxY/video.htmlsi=n5p7yIHNV-RMkk0G
This device burned my skin on one side so now I have collagen damages on one side. Be careful!
Sorry to hear that. You do have to be careful with RF. I’ve since done quite a few videos on this topic as I’ve learned more about it.
@@thehonestchannel yes, you really have to. But I am a skin therapist with many years of practice and have worked with radio frequency that means I have deep knowledge about this method , still my facial fat got damaged on one side. So I do think it’s very important that people think twice before trying this device. And not believe celebrities that advertise these devices. They probably got them for free and only use them for the picture and likes. take care people !
Can you use lumo on body like your tummy amd thighs ?
Yes, I used
Why water based ? Why did you say not to use oil?
Water conducts the microcurrent.
I see zero difference in the before and after pics. I think most of the perceived benefits are in our head. Things look better under the eyes though.
Which at home RF device do you prefer?
I’ve only used the Lumo. This video covers everything I’ve learned about RF and safety czcams.com/video/l7BPdR6_uxY/video.html
Do you still continue using Nuface or stoned using it because of Lumo?
I stopped using the NuFace a while back but I think microcurrent is worthwhile in its own right.
@@thehonestchannel do you think it is better to invest in Lumo or Nuface if there is a budget only for one device?
@@lyudmylaklykova8211 If you are looking for something to help with a little toning then I'd go for a microcurrent device, if it's something to help with more visible jowls, for instance, I'd go with the Lumo but use any RF-based device cautiously and on a lower setting, especially to begin with. It's quite powerful.
@@thehonestchannel thank you very much. Really appreciate your help
Hello. What is the name of the RF devic you recommend? What happens if we stop it? Can we use it with nuface gel?
Can u please tell me where I can find a radio frequency tool with a 3Mhz frequency?? I find 1 or 2 and I want a device that promote fat loss for face but I can’t seem to find one 😩😭😭😭
I honestly couldn’t recommend that you buy a device that actively targets facial fat. I don’t know your age but it could be something you later regret. Most at-home devices are not powerful enough to go that deep anyway so I would recommend you look at something like microcurrent or a face gym device - or go to see an aesthetics professional who is a doctor or nurse to discuss fat loss options.
@@thehonestchannel thank you for ur reply 🙏🏻 I initially wanted to use the RF device on my nose to spot reduce the fat because I have a fat nose tip but can you suggest to me other devices that might help me instead ??
@@puffynoodlez2731 I would see an aesthetic specialist. It will be cartilage rather than fat on the tip of your nose.
Where MHz is concerned, 1MHz is 3x stronger than 3MHz. I don't recommend you purposely try to do this either, you could easily disfigure yourself. This is not something to play around with at home. But wanted to clarify that 1MHz is much stronger than 3MHz, and its longer wavelength penetrates significantly deeper.
the 3 photos u put up um sorry no difference in your skin or is it how many times you use it if u use it twice a month no change but if u are using it 3 times probably a difference but sorry nope there is no change to your skin
You only need an HA serum with this device? Can you use an organic aloe?
Yes, anything water rather than oil-based should work.
@@thehonestchannel It's a plus that you do not need a special conductive gel
I see absolutely no difference in the before and afters.
That’s why I think it’s important to take and share the photos to let people draw their own conclusions.
I dont see any difference
The difference is you are aging others working on not to aging as quickly😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I can... her face is a little fuller not as much as if there was plastic surgery but she looks great
@@tammycorbett1257the same
No difference drink a gallon a water a day youlll have the same plumbing effect without the nerve damage
Anche io non vedo differenze
The lumo did nothing for me. I've been using it for 10 months. A waste of time and money.
Omg, ur so beautiful
I m so curious to know how old u are, if it s ok
Oh thank you ☺️ I don’t mind you asking my age at all. I’m 49. Big one next year!
@@thehonestchannel you look nowhere near it, which is why I follow you as what you’re doing is working 😊 thanks for all the really informative content you put out!
@@khaledgb1 Aww, that’s so kind of you to say. Thank you 😊
if you're going to post results, the pics need to be in the same light, same makeup or no makeup and close to the same position as possible. most of these pics have before with no makeup and after with full face makeup. of course they're gonna look better with makeup. please please quit misleading us! not just these pics but all on internet!
Fat loss is irreversible so why do it
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Does it shorten the life of injected botox?
I couldn’t give you a definitive on that because it hasn’t been researched. The standard advice would be to give Botox a couple of weeks to take full effect before using at- home devices and it shouldn’t cause a significant impact on the results
I'd say it definitely would
sorry but not much difference if any
You're face is definitely fuller, nicer not as gaunt 😊
it destroys fat pads dont use it
stop speak all the time and shoe us the skin cleaner
