Non surgical facelifts?

Has anyone ever tried on of those 'non surgical facelifts' that use electrical currents to stimulate the muscles of the face? My local college offers these treatments and, being of a certain age cough, I'm becoming distinctively jowly Confused. Would be really interested to hear if yu've had anything like and what you thought of the results?

No but I'm interested in those strings that drag queens use to yank their loose skin back! I'm in that territory nowadays.

Oh, seen those! That will be my next port of call. But, oh my word, the distress when you pull the strings off...Grin

I have CACI facials. Had a course of ten and didn't keep them up so about a year later had another course of facials and then for a year I had thr commended monthly one to maintain results. For various reasons I had a break again this year for a few months but have started them again.

I like them and do feel they help but it's hard to quantify as I don't know what I would be like without having had them.

I did get to the stage when I was having the regular monthly ones that a therapist said I didn't need th Ultimate as I was maintaining enough lift and that the booster one be would be fine.

I've tried Botox and fillers in the past but wasn't keen so do these instead. I'm 52 but am told I don't look it.

OldIsTheNew Yes...RuPaul says he barely moves his head on TV because he's afraid something will snap and he'll look like half his face has dropped!

CiderwithBuda - yes, I've considered fillers, but decided to try the non surgical stuff first. Although, maybe fillers are considered non surgical? Anyway, the electrical currents to tighten everything up. I am a mere spring chicken of 47 Grin but I think it may be time...

VioletBam I just know mine would come loose in public, probably when trying to make a good impression.
