Q: What are the pros and cons of JeNu?

Pros The device is easy to charge and to clean. Using the JeNu infuser system is painless and shouldn’t cause irritation, unless your skin is very sensitive or you’re allergic to the gel. RealSelf members who say it’s Worth It saw fewer fine lines and noticed improvements in skin tone. Cons Some RealSelf members report issues with the conducting gel. Common complaints are related to its synthetic ingredients and how quickly it runs out. Because this is an at-home device, results aren’t comparable to in-office skin rejuvenation treatments.

Question 1

What is JeNu?

Accepted Answer

The JeNu Plus ultrasonic infuser is an at-home device that’s designed to boost the effectiveness of your skincare regimen. Its manufacturer says it triples the absorption of skincare products—including cleansers, serums, and moisturizers—enabling active ingredients to penetrate deeper into the dermis. The wand’s ultrasonic energy sends out 365,000 pulses per second, amplified by the MicroSphere Conducting Gel, to infuse skincare products more deeply into your skin. Think of JeNu as the final step to your skincare routine.

You can use the system with JeNu skincare products like their Marine Collagen Mineral Gel. According to the results of a clinical study commissioned by JeNu’s manufacturer, Trophy Skin, you can also use it to make any brand’s products more effective, which can help extend the longevity of in-office treatments.

Question 3

What is an ultrasonic facial?

Accepted Answer

JeNu is just one device that uses ultrasonic energy to better infuse your skincare products and promote anti-aging, but other types of ultrasonic facial treatments can increase collagen production and firm up your skin, resulting in a more youthful look.

The most powerful ultrasound energy facial treatment is Ultherapy, a skin-tightening procedure that can only be done in-office by an experienced provider.

Question 4

How do you use the JeNu ultrasonic infuser?

Accepted Answer

You’ll use JeNu at home as part of your regular skincare routine. Begin by applying your product to clean skin. Then put a pearl-size amount of conducting gel on the tip of the wand and turn the device on. Gently move the wand in a circular motion over the areas you want to treat. The wand automatically turns off after one minute, the optimum treatment time for each area.

Clean the wand with mild soap and warm water after each use. Use the included charger when the wand runs out of battery life.

RealSelf members describe using JeNu as a “simple” and worthwhile addition to your beauty routine—if you have the extra few minutes, that is.

Question 5

Do you have to use the JeNu conducting gel?

Accepted Answer

There’s a discussion on RealSelf about the ingredients of the conducting gel, and some members have decided not to use it based on its contents, which include Bis-PEG-8 Dimethicone, Propanediol, and Glycerin.

JeNu users have found aloe vera gel works well as an alternative, and some suggest using any water-based personal lubricant.

Question 6

Does JeNu work?

Accepted Answer

The results you see, such as firmer or brighter skin, will depend on the products you’re using and their ingredients’ effectiveness in treating your specific concerns.

Trophy Skin does cite an independent clinical study of 160 women of diverse backgrounds and ages who tried JeNu with over 200 skincare products from various manufacturers. The study boasts that “9 out of 10 women reported that the system made the products they were already using work better, while 8 out of 10 women reported they couldn't believe how much faster they saw results with JeNu when compared to traditional application.”

While JeNu maintains a high Worth It Rating among at-home skincare devices, there have been some negative comments around JeNu customer service and their responses to problems with the device itself. Although its manufacturer does offer a guarantee, take some time to read about the experiences of others. Some have described their interactions with the Trophy Skin company’s customer service as “disappointing.”

Question 7

Is JeNu safe?

Accepted Answer

There is nothing to indicate JeNu is unsafe. However, if you’re concerned about using an ultrasonic device for any reason, talk to your dermatologist and they can help you make a decision about a treatment process that works for you.
