The Temporary Tightener
Good things may take time, but there's a lot to be said for instant gratification. And when you want to look younger in a hurry (so, always?), Francesca Fusco, a dermatologist in New York City, recommends the NuFace Trinity: "I'm a big fan of microcurrent technology. It gives a lift to the brows, cheeks, and jawline for up to 24 hours." That sounds too good to be true, but after one five-minute session, our tester's eyes appeared lifted, and her cheekbones were suddenly visible. Though the device sends electricity into the skin, it's not painful in the slightest—instead, its two metallic balls deliver what feels like a mini massage. "It stimulates circulation, drains lymph nodes, and tightens superficial facial muscles enough to temporarily firm skin," says Fusco. But dermatologists say it doesn't supply the energy required to promote collagen production, so you have to submit to a session every time you want that lift.
