*We only mention products we personally love & have used.
After experiencing the countless drawbacks issues associated with traditional skincare routines, such as signs of aging, sagging skin, and the ineffectiveness of certain topical treatments, we set out to explore various anti-aging and skin-tightening solutions. Professional skincare treatments often prove to be time-consuming and expensive, making them less accessible for the average person.
Instead of relying solely on in-clinic appointments, we searched for at home at-home devices that are easy to use and are effective alternatives for anti-aging and skin-tightening treatments.
We tested 20 at-home anti-aging and skin tightening devices, including models from Nira, JOVS, Lyma and Radiance One. We rated the best five options based on the following criteria:
Results
We tested how long it took to see noticeable improvements in reducing fine lines, wrinkles, scars, redness, and acne in the shortest time possible. Out of all the devices we tested, a few of them worked extremely well and gave us smoother, younger skin effortlessly.
Cost
If you decided to go the "in-office" route, it can cost $400+ per each session (between 6-8 sessions are needed for noticeable skin improvements so you do the math.) Luckily, we were able to achieve excellent results with devices that costed less than $400, with the best results coming from one specific handset that cost just around $149*.
Safe For At Home Use
Expert dermatologist Ema Wilson considers at-home, anti-aging and skin tightening handsets a safe alternative. They work by reversing the impact of aging by transmitting a non-fractional laser fluence to gently heat the dermis. This stimulates natural collagen production to plump skin and smooth wrinkles without any damage - revealing firmer, youthful looking skin. At-home devices work similarly to professional treatments.
We searched for the best options currently available on the market that are suitable for at-home use.
Why Estheticians Chose Radiance One as the Best Overall Choice for At-Home Anti-Aging & Skin Tightening
Can be tough on sensitive skin and even slightly painful. For those of us who used the NIRA, it took about 24 sessions for
noticeable skin improvements.
With JOVS - it takes around 24-28 sessions to see noticeable skin improvement. It also does not use radio frequency
technology, which is key in reducing wrinkles, lines and acne.
Like Nyra and Radiance One, it utilizes cutting-edge radio frequency and red light technology that can deliver results in about 10
sessions. It's
loved for it's handheld size & simplicity of use.
