The modern market of cosmetic products is very rich in various massagers. The user can choose the most suitable option for every taste: from a simple mechanical option to electronic and even laser, which will allow to transfer expensive cosmetic procedures from salons to a cozy home environment.
ROLL
The simplest and cheapest option is a roller massager, which is a handle with one or more rollers (of different sizes and shapes) connected to each other. Such a massager is most often made of plastic, wood or stone.
To use this device, it is necessary to drive the rollers on the skin, applying a little force, which has an excellent massage effect.
ELECTRIC
Electrical devices, or so-called myostimulators, are devices that are designed to perform lifting (rejuvenation of facial skin). The massager helps to get rid of existing wrinkles, prevent the appearance of new ones, as well as improve blood circulation, which contributes to noticeable skin rejuvenation. After the first procedure, clients notice an excellent result.
Purchasing such a device helps to avoid expensive and unpleasant procedures such as Botox and surgical facelift.
ULTRASOUND
Ultrasonic facial massage devices are aimed at removing skin imperfections. The principle of operation is quite simple: ultrasound helps skin cells to shrink and dissolve, which helps to smooth the surface of the face. Also, this device helps to get rid of wrinkles and tighten the overall shape.
IMPULSE
The pulse device cleanses the skin, accelerates the regeneration process, and also stimulates blood circulation through short-term current pulses. Because this device produces low voltage, it is absolutely safe to use at home.
OXYGEN
The action of this massager is aimed at enriching the lymph with oxygen molecules. This effect helps to improve metabolism, promotes rapid skin regeneration. After such procedures, facial skin acquires an even color and a healthy appearance.
IONIC
The ion massager is designed for two types of work: cleansing the skin (positively charged ions) and promoting deeper penetration of the applied nourishing cream. Just one press of a button is enough to change the mode.
JADE
This massager is mechanical and has a similar appearance to the roller. The main difference is that the roller (the surface that is in contact with the skin) is made of healing stone with positive energy - jade. Such a massage will help rejuvenate, improve facial skin, as well as give a healthy color and relieve fatigue.
VACUUM
This type is one of the most popular among users of "home" massagers. The device helps to get rid of wrinkles and deeply clean the skin of the face. After regular use, the face becomes taut, its color evens out, blackheads and swelling disappear. Also, a vacuum device helps to get rid of a double chin.

LASER
The action of this device is based on the emission of special soft waves that stimulate the production of collagen (a protein that provides strength and elasticity to the skin), smoothes wrinkles, and also removes cheekbones and removes unwanted fat layers.
