As beauty lovers alike, it’s pretty safe to say there’s one thing we’re seriously afraid of. No, it’s not our fave lippy being discontinued (although that is devastating) or even a bad eyebrow tint! Our genuine fear that haunts us in our nightmares is: *cue the shocked faces* a saggy face. Yep, we’re dramatic, but face sculpting is on our list of must dos to maintain a snatched jawline.
Of course, we started with the cheaper options to see how much of a de-puffing impact it made on our slowly sagging skin. And while we genuinely still rate the celeb-backed (and ancient) method of Gua Sha face sculpting, there’s times we’re looking for more. Yep, we’re talking hard-hitting microcurrent and LED waves that will help sculpt our sallow skin more than a contour stick ever could.
We bet you’re more than ready to check out all the best face sculpting tools, so let’s get to business…

How often should you use a face sculpting tool?
Most face sculpting tools recommend daily use. Why? Because the consistency that comes with even just a few minutes of use a day can make some serious impacts. It’s able to help to train your facial muscles to a whole new level. So, obviously if the device says use once a week stick to it’s recommendation, but many microcurrent devices (and manual drainage devices) can (and should) be used each and every day.
Do face sculpting tools actually work?
We can confidently say that yes, they sure can, if used consistently and correctly. The price tag might be major, but so are the benefits. Yep, like we said, these devices are able to help to train your 43 facial muscles into a new more snatches shape. Basically, they’re a workout for your face.

Do you use any face sculpting tools? What do you think about the exxy prices?
Omg , the laser starter kit , does anyone buy it? It is an absolute fortune.
I love the look of these but my budget can’t meet the best of them .
You need to have the discipline to use them every day, especially considering the price.
Yes and I would fail in that.
That second one is insanely priced!
I’d love to try the Rose Quartz roller.
These are above my budget at the moment
The Lyma Laser looks pretty serious !!
I don’t use one even though I could do with a little help.
Lovely idea, but I just don’t have the budget.
you need a whole second bathroom these days for all your gadgets and makeup and skincare
I’ve wanted the Ziip for so long. One day…
The only one I’d consider out of all of those, is the Lyma Laser and only if it were deeply discounted. I already own an Red Light/Yellow Light/NIR lamp, a CurrentBody mask and an Omnilux Men mask. My hubby gives me a Gua Sha facial using two stones 3x a week to help with lymphatic drainage. I’ve tried the NuFace and I wasn’t impressed!
I am currently use Derma Roller. I am happy with the results.
I have the quartz roller, the others are bit much to justify for home use I think.
The roller is a good entry point price to try this
Only celebrities could afford or justify this laser kit
I hate to say it, but I dont feel like they work! Or it will take a million years to see a difference
