OMG Besties: This Smart Beauty Microcurrent Device Is Literally a Game-Changer!
Listen up, skincare lovers! As an esthetician, I've literally tried every beauty gadget under the sun, but I'm actually obsessed with my latest discovery - the Nu Skin RenuSpa iO The first at home handheld Microcurrent Device. Let me spill the tea on why this smart beauty device is about to become your new holy grail.
I'm sure you have heard of snatching your face with Microcurrent, but now let's focus on the body too!!
The Skinny on What Makes This Microcurrent Device Different
Okay, so you know how most at-home devices are kind of... meh? Well, this one's different, I swear! The RenuSpa iO uses something called Adaptive Microcurrent Technology (fancy, right?), which basically means it's smart enough to adjust to YOUR specific skin. Like, imagine having a bestie who just knows exactly what your skin needs - that's what this device does! It literally uses electronic wavelengths to feel your skin on your stomach, arms, thighs, booty and literally adjusts the electric current intensity to what you need. Actually insane?!
Pro Tip: Make sure you use it with their included Conductive Gel (trust me on this one, it makes ALL the difference). If you really want to amp up the Microcurrent, check out the other recommended serums below!
Smart Features That Actually Make Sense
Y'all, they really said "future of skincare" with this one! The microcurrent device connects to an app on your phone, and it's like having a personal skincare coach in your pocket. No more guessing if you're doing it right - the app's got your back! You don't HAVE to use the app though if you're short on time. You can just hold the power button and tap through how many minutes you want to do your session for (1-5) and apply the microcurrent device to your skin to get going!Â

Clinical Results That Prove Microcurrent Actually Works
Forty-two subjects between 25–65 years of age were recruited to complete a Nu Skin RenuSpa iO regimen for 12 weeks.
The subjects used the RenuSpa iO device with Nu Skin Conductive Gel (Included) five times a week for five minutes per area(e.g., back of upper arm, back of upper thigh (buttocks),and abdomen). To assess visible skin depuffing, toning, and sculpting, thigh and arm circumferences were taken at baseline and weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12. Statistically significant reductions were noted throughout the 12 weeks of the study.
Comparing use after 12 weeks to baseline, statistically relevant data shows the ability of the Nu Skin RenuSpa iO device,through skin stimulation, to visibly tone, hydrate, and reduce the appearance of dimpled skin on the upper thigh and abdomen.Subjects also noted improvements in their skin’s appearance within the following attributes for each area
- Firmness
- Smoothness
- Contour
