Does the DermaWand really work?

By GSB on 03 Apr 2008

I've been watching the infomercial for DermaWand and wonder what results "real" users are having? If you've used the DermaWand would you please let me know what you think? Thanks!

Gosh, it certainly looks fishy to me. if dermawand worked then wouldn't we all stop going to the spa or dermatologist? what do you think? --only55

I tried DermaWand & after 1 week noticed the light system was blinking like it wasn't wk'g right. I called co. & devlopers contacted me. Few days had past. By then I had sm.-blisters above brow/+dent spot on cheek same shape as head of unit. All-products w/Aloe (allergic to) so advised to use KY gel to glide unit. Later flickered more & co. said send back to replace. I did & they did credit off on card & said I'm fair, so probably too sensitive. I wanted to try on neck but refused to allow me re-purchase. Now I'm glad. 1" dent is still on cheek. I think the light therapy caused something to happen & not safe. Time I had, just abused/not rejuved!

Absolutely! This item takes commitment and care. You do not have to use the expensive skin products the company sales you can use your own. I use it on my face and it does continue to rejuvenate my skin. My fiance had a wrist injury and uses the wand to shock the nerves and has gotten feeling back!

I used it for a few weeks and I noticed some changes. I always use it on the lowest setting - anything higher hurts my skin. But on the right setting, it massaged the skin on my face and effected some degree of tightening. But being the lazy person that I am, I stopped using it. I think it will work if you use it for a long time. But based of L.S. testimonial, I think it's not for everybody. Now, my DermaWand lies peacefully inside my drawer. Who knows, when will I use it again. I guess I'm just too busy. And too lazy =P

That is so funny. I too purchased it and seemed to have nice results while I used it for a few months. ..nothing spectacular and so now mine also sits in the drawer and I search for something with more dramatic results like IPL. Someone highly recommended $300 Galvanic Spa which uses some type of frequency as well and I'm wondering if that really works and if it's similar to the Derma Wand.

I read in a informative packet online that I had found somewhere that it shoots micro electric currents through your skin.

I just purchased my Derma Wand. Have used it for two days, morning and evening, with my usual moisturizer for face and neck and my moisturizer for eyes and I am already thrilled. I noticed the difference almost immediately. It softened fine lines, both around the mouth and eyes, deep wrinkles, noticeable pores and my overall skin texture appears softer and tighter. I really am amazed and will definitely continue this daily regime. I am 57 yrs old, with an olive complexion. During the summer months my skin tans whether I like it or not. I recommend this product to anyone over 50. I really was not expecting the results that I've already seen, especially in such a short time.

Before Dermawand, there was device called Rejuvawand with same claims. It had infrared that went deeper. I was considering. Sold exclusive by Light Dimensions. Now It's on net at ebay & discount online stores. I think co. went under & selling what's left. Possible fate of the Dermawand too? Would like info if anyone knows/tried Rejuvawand? Why did this 1 disappear? Was also on tv.

Does anyone think this is similar to the Galvanic Spa device?

Funny, haven't been back here for so long. I was looking into Galvanic spa back in July as I have a derma wand I felt I did get some results but like the other's said, for some reason, it ended up in my drawer..maybe because I ran out of their product and didn't want to order more. Now I got the galvanic spa and I can see results after one treatment. I do think there is something similar about the two but I don't know enough to say what the similarities and differences are. They both have some frequency/current although the galvanic is battery operated and the derma wand plug in the wall and has a light. Hope someone will enlighten us.

I just purchased today after watching the infomercial and I will update you and if possible post some before and after pictures to let everyone see if this really works I have 30 days to try it out so why not.

Galvanic and high frequency (telsa current) are two different things.
You can use just about any product with them, depending on what you want to achieve.
I can post more on the subject if anyone is interested.
I have been an aesthetician for almost 20yrs.
Before using or buying any type of facial machine you should always do your homework and make sure that is what you are looking for.
Don't waste your money if you are not willing to use these products at least 3 times weekly.
Hope this answers some of your questions.

KAJ, please post some more information. It is difficult to do the homework when you don't know enough about the products. I am looking to reduce wrinkles around my eyes and on my neck and generally improve the condition and appearance of my skin.
