Excellent tutorial, I would just mention to remove and insert the glass attachments closer to the base and not neat the tip as shown. They're extremely fragile and will be more prone to break otherwise.
Absolutely! These are delicate glass wands and inserting closer to the base is a great tip! You can also wrap a towel around the wands to be more careful!
Thank you for this - it really helped with my first use. I am wondering what level most people set their device to for a “5” tingling sensation. I barely had my device set at 1 and I could feel the tingles fairly strong, so I am not sure how strong a 5 is supposed to be.
@@陈情令-l2ghi! I think it does help. It isn’t a miracle device for me but I did notice improvement. However, I recently stopped eating dairy and that has made the biggest difference
I bought this today at Bealls for about -$15.00, for my thinning hair line. I had purchased one in 2006 from a Skymall catalog for $600! I’ll let you know if anything happens!

Thank you so much for this tutorial, this was one of the most informative ones I’ve seen! I was wondering whether I could use the wand with a retinoid cream, or whether that would be too harsh for my skin? I purchased a wand but am nervous about using it without knowing if I’m going to be causing damage to my skin
Happy to hear how helpful this was! You can use the device and retinoid, just not together. Alternate using the high frequency device and the retinoid on different days or am vs pm!
We do suggest avoiding using the device on areas with rosacea and suggest our TCA Face Peel instead to treat acne. Peels are a much more gentle way to treat sensitive skin with acne and exfoliate the skin :)
Hi. Can basic people use it at home? Or its only for professional cosmeticians who knows how to use it? Which brand do you recommend? Is Primalderm brand good? Thank you for your answer.
This was sold to me, inferring it helps with aging and cell turnover, including what it says on the BOX. Would there be no point in using this device if we don’t need help with acne any longer? It recently STOPPED being a problem (yet, I also do not make virtually ANY of my own moisture any longer and am rather concerned) Main question again for clarity: Are we to assume the device does not help with aging? Thank you, in advance : )
We make no claims of this device helping with cell turn over or anti aging. And there is no mention of this on the box either. You likely purchased it from a different brand. Our device uses argon electrodes to help kill acne causing bacteria and calm inflammation, per the video. We have an assortment of products to help with signs of aging, both treating and preventing. Please email us hello@stackedskincare.com and we will happily help you with a regimen. Thank you!
You can use the high frequency in the AM, PM, or whenever you'd like! We suggest doing it on clean dry skin or applying a growth factor, like our EGF Serum, on first then using the device. Let us know if you have any other questions, thank you!
Hello! You can apply your serums immediately after using the device. I recommend our EGF serum, it's amazing at quickly healing acne and lifting dark spots. You can use peels, just make sure to always use after the high frequency treatment. We have an amazing multi acid peel in our product line. You can also sign up for a virtual consultation and we can assist you with all your questions. Hope that helps. ❤️
Hi, very informative video! Thank you for sharing! I used it tonight for the first time. My wand seems to have 10 levels of intensity and I only placed it at 1 because the electrical current seemed too strong. I tried to place my finger on the wand after I turned it on but the zap was too much. Should I try keeping my finger on before turning the wand on ?
Yes, keep your finger on the glass electrode and after it's on your skin lift your finger off the electrode. If it still feels too strong please contact customer service and we will assist you hello@stackedskincare.com. Thank you!
I bought this for anti aging😢.I didn't realize it was just for acne. I am sixty acne isn't much of an issue. Informative video. Wish I had seen it before I purchased😢

To target acne scars, our TCA Body Peel would be best as it will exfoliate your skin lifting hyperpigmentation. We ship worldwide on our site! Just click the flag at the top right hand corner and choose your country!
You do not have to use gauze and can use the device on your bare skin. We advise using gauze or tissue to make it easier to move the device around your skin and help the current penetrate deeper.
We suggest applying our EGF Serum before using the device as it will help further treat and heal the acne. You can also use a tissue or toilet paper too! It does not just have to be gauze.
You can use the high frequency device for up to 15 minutes on your scalp. Overuse can dry the scalp out, so if you start to notice your scalp becoming dry decrease usage.
I have the older model and didn’t realize stacked had a comb attachment until this video. I purchased the comb attachment last week but it is kind of loose when I insert it and shifts as it passes through my hair. May be because my hair is on the thicker side or because it wasn’t meant to go into the older model
I've had facials over the years, at a variety of different places, and where they've used this device. More recently however, I was at a spa in the neighborhood, and got a facial. Now on one hand, this place is quite good and 'professional', as far as little neighborhood spas go. However, it is Chinese-owned and run, which I know can sometimes mean they are getting their products from China, and where the quality can be questionable. Anyway, when the facialist used the high-frequency device on me, it felt no different than other spas I've been to, and where they used this device. There was a very light 'zap' feeling now and then, but overall, it was honestly quite mild. However, after my facial, while my overall skin was glowing...it looked terrific....'moist'....dewy...'plump' (any teeny wrinkles I may have on my face, as a whole, seemed LESS noticeable)....I noticed that the opposite had occurred on the deeper wrinkles on my face (i.e., my 'frown' lines, one horizontal line on my forehead, and the two 'smile lines' on either side of my mouth). All of those lines looked MORE pronounced and deeper, after this facial. Any idea why that would be...what would cause that? I don't think it's my imagination... ;-) Thanks!
She mentioned a couple times about cleasing your face before and even gave us the instructions in how to do it! You need to clean your face, use a serúm and after all use another serum and moisturize!
From my understanding you’re not supposed have your hands on the face while using HF since the electricity will jump to your hand rather the clients skins or does the gaze create a barrier between your hand?
How long are you supposed to use the comb to your head and how often is recommended? I hear these devices can cause burns, and I'm not looking to mess up more of my hair! Please help.
Rest assure high frequency devices do not burn the skin. The comb electrode uses neon gas to stimulate hair growth. Use on dry clean hair for up to 20 minutes 3-5x a week :)
Hi I have bought your wand for my nodular/cystic acne. I am just about to finish a 6 month course of antibiotics and I use Epiduo-a prescribed gel ( benzoyl peroxide and adapaline. X I use a cleanser/face wash x2 a day that contains salicylic, glycolic and lactic acid. Is this ok to use to cleanse before an AM high frequency treatment? I also want to continue with the Epiduo but I would be using this before I go to bed. Would this be advisable?
I have a metal cemented retainer behind my teeth, I used this and felt fine and seeing you say not to use with metal made me wonder why it shouldnt be used around metal? Also do you have to use a barrier (like the gauze) or is it okay to use directly on the skin?
I'm glad you didn't have any negative side effects using the device. It is a precaution we always give in order to ensure safely using the device. Using gauze or tissue to put space between the electrode and your skin will strengthen the current. You can hover over the skin but I find it easier to use gauze and it also helps to glide over the skin more easily. On a scale of 10, you want to feel about a 5 tingling sensation. Don't crank it up higher or you'll dry your skin out. I hope that helps!
Thank you so much for this informative video! I have one quick question- what would you recommend putting on your skin prior to using the wand if you don’t have any serums? Is bio oil okay? I splurged on the wand itself as a birthday gift to me and can’t afford pricy serums! Thank you!
We recommend using a growth factor serum, like our EGF serum, but in most cases you will want to use the device on clean dry skin. Avoid applying any acid-based products on before, as it can cause some sensitivity. I would wait to apply your oil and other skin care products after using the device.
@krystadavisclark3717 I wouldn't recommend using this device. Please contact us and we can help with other recommendations based on your skin concerns. Hello@stackedskincare.com
The instruction says to not use on freckled skin, unfortunately it doesn't say that on the box and doesn't say why. Do you know? I have some freckles. So, is this only for acne and hair stimulation? Not for wrinkles and sagging?
Correct. Our device is intended to use for acne or hair stimulation. You can use on freckles, our manual does not contraindicate that. We use argon gas which is for treating acne, and neon gas for stimulating hair growth. Some say neon helps with anti aging, so if you want to use the comb wand, you can use the backside of it on your face. We do not promote this for anti aging benefits as I believe there are other things that are better for age prevention. If you'd like more info, please email us!
Def turn it way down I actually recommend microneedling under eye as opposed to high frequency. It's more effective especially when used with peptides, stem cells and growth factors
I have a question. I bought this. But the one that you’re using at 12:40 doesn’t light up for me. But the others do. Does that mean the one that didn’t light up is defective? It still makes noise however, and when I touched the lower end towards the machine(not the tip), I got shocked.
Hi! Before using the high frequency device, cleanse skin. You can apply a serum like our EGF serum before to drive the product deeper. Avoid using any chemical exfoliate before high frequency. The gauze helps for 2 reasons: the further away the electrode is from your skin the deeper the electrical current will feel, no more than about 1/4" off the skin, and the gauze also make it a lot easier to maneuver the electrode on your skin. Be sure to properly moisturize your skin post treatment Hope that helps!
You can apply the wand directly on the skin. If you use gauze or tissue, it will penetrate a little deeper and easier to maneuver around the face. I explain that in the video!
You can use it daily. Important to note only about 1 min on any area and about 10 min for whole face. You should feel about a 5 tingling sensation on a scale of 10 and male sure to properly moisturize your skin!
High frequency won't help lift hyperpigmentation but it can help prevent it by reducing the inflammation of acne. To lift hyperpigmentation, I recommend our TCA peel, egf serum and dermaplaning weekly to slough off the dead skin. Over time, you'll see the dark spots fade away! Email us at hello@stackedskincare.com for more info if you have additional questions!
Hi! Yes, you can use on a popped pimple. It will help heal it more quickly. Just follow my instructions and you should feel about a 4/5 tingling sensation and only use it for less than 1 min on that area daily. Ne sure to apply a healing serum and moisturizer!
You can purchase it on our website stackedskincare.com For ingrown hairs, I recommend our tca face peel, it will gently exfoliate allowing the hairs to push thru to the surface. It's super easy to use, just apply a few drops at night after cleansing and leave on overnight. No need to rinse it off it self neutralizes!
Our high frequency device is designed to kill acne-causing bacteria treating cystic and hormonal acne and our comb electrode to help stimulate hair growth. If you want to focus on firming fine lines and wrinkles then try our HA serum with the Microneedling tool which will provide better results!
If you see an orange hue then it is neon gas which is great for stimulating growth. Argon gas gives off a violet hue and kills acne-causing bacteria underneath the skin.
I’m an esthetician student, can clients get the high frequency when having cavities? Our school doesn’t allow us to use it on other with contraindications and cavities is one.. they say we will taste metal.
We do not recommend using the device if you have any type of metal in your mouth or face piercings. Cavities could be an exception as it is in the teeth and you are using the tool on your skin. You can always just avoid the mouth area if there are any concerns for cavities.
@@StackedSkincarethank you for getting back to me! I started treatment a week ago and a new cystic pimple surfaced. Is this normal? How long does it take for it to change my skin?
@HeatherWong79 you're welcome! Could be totally normal, the device is not causing another cyst, it was likely brewing. Depending on the severity will depend on how long it takes. Also, you need to be properly exfoliating your skin and using actives like growth factors and retinol. Our multi acid tca face peel, egf serum and retinol with the Hf device will speed up the healing and prevent acne a lot quicker. You can email us for more information!
I was trying to use mine for the first time and when i tried to ground it with my finger it didn’t hurt at all but the feeling really scared me so I didn’t use it.
I have a question if i have a toner for my scalp or a treatment for growth which is liquid do i use it before only ? Or i can put the toner wait till it dries completely and start the device ?
Hi,I wanted to ask if all the shapes of the things you put on do the same thing and have the same affection?Because I accidentally broke one of them :(
Any of the wands can be used and applied to your face and will work just as effective as the other. We designed different shapes to make it easier depending on where you are applying! You can repurchase any single electrode on our site! stackedskincare.com/collections/high-frequency
Here is how you incorporate High Frequency into a facial with an enzyme and hydrating mask: Cleanse apply enzyme mask - you can do this while steaming extractions high frequency treatment hydrating mask apply serums moisturizer SPF
You can apply a growth serum like our EGF serum but in most cases you will want to use the device on clean dry skin. Avoid applying any acid-based products on before, as it can cause some sensitivity.
Hi! I can't speak to another companies product. Our device comes with 3 argon gas electrodes for the face, which kills acne causing bacteria and calms inflammation, and 1 comb electrode with a neon gas to stimulate hair growth. We have a 1 year warranty and excellent customer service as my mission is to provide the best products, education and support for our customers. We are a small female led company and I've been an aesthetician for 13 years I hope that helps and I appreciate you reaching out. Let me know if I can help in any way!
@Lilyleaf This high frequency facial wand uses an argon gas electrode to emit a small electrical current that generates oxygen when applied to the skin. This oxygen travels into the skin to kill acne-causing bacteria within blemishes while reducing inflammation and redness
@@StackedSkincare I have a Nuderma, and the following day my skin was further inflamed and upset. It did not seem to help. Is that normal after first use?
@@Mossy179 that's not normal. Did you watch my video on how to properly use the device? Also, what else did you use with it? Might be helpful to email us and have customer service forward your email to me so I can best help you! Just tell them we were chatting on YT. Hello@stackedskincare.com. thank you!
Hi! It can help to increase circulation to improve skin tone. However, I'd love to know your main skin concerns so I can best recommend products and tools suited for you!
@@StackedSkincare thank you for reaponding. I'm 52 and do not have any skin issues. Just working on hyperpigmentation and fine lines. I use a red light panel daily, microcurrent 3x/WK and have the Nira laser-uae that daily. I love devices and I use them. The hyperpigmentation is very hard to treat. Fine lines & wrinkles are here. I'm just working on trying to see if I can keep them from expanding :)) for now. Would appreciate hearing your suggestions
@michy2630 I can help with your hyperpigmentation! Can you please DM me on our Instagram? It's @StackedSkincare I can send you more detailed links or we can set up a video chat. Looking forward to hearing from you!
what happens if you don't lift up your finger once you put the wand on your face? Basically you keep it grounded the entire time? Does it matter if you use the purple or orange wand? My kit only came with orange wands.
You need to remove your finger after applying the wand to your face or the current won't work. Grounding it to start is so you don't feel the current immediately. You should have violet wands. Can you please take a video in the dark and send to customer service hello@stackedskincare.com? Put the device on and just touch the electrode with your fingertip. We will make sure to send you the correct ones if you have orange. Thank you!
@@StackedSkincarethankyou I already tried with this! Makes such a difference, felt the power of it more! Good to know it was safe to use tissue instead! Thanks for replying! ❤️
In my honest opinion, no, I love these devices to treat acne and we have argon gas electrodes in our device. For anti aging, I recommend microneedling, peels, retinol, and a good moisturizing routine.
Yes! You can use daily, limit to 1-2 min on any area or 15-20 min for your whole face. Make sure to properly moisturize your skin to prevent it getting dried out!
Could I also use this with red light therapy? Is it possible to use them in the routine, one after the other? Or is it best to use them on different days?
We suggest grounding the device before applying the electrode on your skin so you don't feel a shock right away, but its not necessary. You can also turn the device on low then slowly increase the dial up to the level where you feel a slight zapping feeling, but it should not hurt at all.
Yes, it is safe to do in that order. However, I would apply a hair growth serum, then use the HF device 1st and finish with the microneedling tool and another layer of tje serum. Hope that helps!
You can have direct contact. If you give space between the electrode and your skin it will penetrate deeper. You can use gauze to create space and make it easier to maneuver.
I’ve only done two treatments and it’s really helped clear up acne on my neck and jawline. Definitely noticeable. 👍
We love to hear it!!!! With consistent use you will start to see more and more results and maintain them!

Mmm interesting. I learned at school to use it no more than 10 min and one minute pero area. How long in the scalp area then ?
How long are you supposed to use the comb to your head and how often is recommended? I hear these devices can cause burns, and I'm not looking to mess up more of my hair! Please help.
Rest assure high frequency devices do not burn the skin. The comb electrode uses neon gas to stimulate hair growth. Use on dry clean hair for up to 20 minutes 3-5x a week :)
Hi I have bought your wand for my nodular/cystic acne. I am just about to finish a 6 month course of antibiotics and I use Epiduo-a prescribed gel ( benzoyl peroxide and adapaline. X
I use a cleanser/face wash x2 a day that contains salicylic, glycolic and lactic acid. Is this ok to use to cleanse before an AM high frequency treatment?
I also want to continue with the Epiduo but I would be using this before I go to bed. Would this be advisable?
Use prescription and all products including serums and moisturizer post hf treatment
I have a metal cemented retainer behind my teeth, I used this and felt fine and seeing you say not to use with metal made me wonder why it shouldnt be used around metal? Also do you have to use a barrier (like the gauze) or is it okay to use directly on the skin?
I'm glad you didn't have any negative side effects using the device. It is a precaution we always give in order to ensure safely using the device.
Using gauze or tissue to put space between the electrode and your skin will strengthen the current. You can hover over the skin but I find it easier to use gauze and it also helps to glide over the skin more easily. On a scale of 10, you want to feel about a 5 tingling sensation. Don't crank it up higher or you'll dry your skin out.
I hope that helps!
Thank you so much for this informative video! I have one quick question- what would you recommend putting on your skin prior to using the wand if you don’t have any serums? Is bio oil okay? I splurged on the wand itself as a birthday gift to me and can’t afford pricy serums! Thank you!
We recommend using a growth factor serum, like our EGF serum, but in most cases you will want to use the device on clean dry skin. Avoid applying any acid-based products on before, as it can cause some sensitivity. I would wait to apply your oil and other skin care products after using the device.
I used this and right after I use it I wear bio oil to moisturize my skin
Moisturizing post treatment is essential! 🙌
Can I use spf cream to prevent uv hiperpigmentation or with the cloth is enough? Would toilet paper also work?
How long can I place the electrode on a blemish when treating it!
Around 1 min on any given area is enough! Once daily.
@@StackedSkincare thank you!! Same with milia?
@@LauraKing for Milian, you want to exfoliate with a peel, check out our tca multi acid peel on our site. Super gentle, no downtime!
Started to use one. Wasn’t sure if I had put it directly on my skin or couple inches off as I can feel the buzz coming from machine
Does it work?
The orange glowing is neon gas I believe and is that one for collagen
Correct! Argon is purple and that's for acne
I have metal plates and screws in my face from having double jaw surgery-I am guessing this wouldn’t be good for me?
@krystadavisclark3717 I wouldn't recommend using this device. Please contact us and we can help with other recommendations based on your skin concerns. Hello@stackedskincare.com
How often can we use high frequency on the face?
You can use it up to 15-20 minutes daily. However if you feel your skin starting to become dry then decrease usage to every other day.
Thank you, this was terrific. Can I use this on leg spider veins?
Thank you! You can use the high frequency device on your body however it is designed to kill acne-causing bacteria. It will not treat spider veins.
@@StackedSkincareso do you have any advice on how to get rid of the spider veins?
@@janie5151 laser is usually the most effective treatment for spider veins. Hope that helps!
The instruction says to not use on freckled skin, unfortunately it doesn't say that on the box and doesn't say why. Do you know? I have some freckles. So, is this only for acne and hair stimulation? Not for wrinkles and sagging?
Correct. Our device is intended to use for acne or hair stimulation. You can use on freckles, our manual does not contraindicate that. We use argon gas which is for treating acne, and neon gas for stimulating hair growth. Some say neon helps with anti aging, so if you want to use the comb wand, you can use the backside of it on your face. We do not promote this for anti aging benefits as I believe there are other things that are better for age prevention. If you'd like more info, please email us!
Would u say to dial it down some when using the spoon shaped one for dark circles and any under eye treatment, thank you.
Def turn it way down I actually recommend microneedling under eye as opposed to high frequency. It's more effective especially when used with peptides, stem cells and growth factors
I have a question. I bought this. But the one that you’re using at 12:40 doesn’t light up for me. But the others do. Does that mean the one that didn’t light up is defective? It still makes noise however, and when I touched the lower end towards the machine(not the tip), I got shocked.
Sounds like it's working! Email us if you need assistance. Hello@stackedskincare.com. thank you!
Hi! I would like to know if the gauze is put over dry skin or skin prepped with serums and then use the high frequency?
Hi! Before using the high frequency device, cleanse skin. You can apply a serum like our EGF serum before to drive the product deeper. Avoid using any chemical exfoliate before high frequency. The gauze helps for 2 reasons: the further away the electrode is from your skin the deeper the electrical current will feel, no more than about 1/4" off the skin, and the gauze also make it a lot easier to maneuver the electrode on your skin. Be sure to properly moisturize your skin post treatment
Hope that helps!
Should we moisturizer or anything for using this
I recommend applying serums and moisturizer post treatment.
I bought one from the tik too shop.. It looks just like the one from Amazon..but I'm afraid it's too cheap.
Hi! How often can scalp treatments be done?
Daily but limited to about 5 min max!
Can I apply the wand all over my face with clean dry skin or do I need to have something on my skin first?
You can apply the wand directly on the skin. If you use gauze or tissue, it will penetrate a little deeper and easier to maneuver around the face. I explain that in the video!
Hi! How frequently can I use this?
You can use it daily. Important to note only about 1 min on any area and about 10 min for whole face. You should feel about a 5 tingling sensation on a scale of 10 and male sure to properly moisturize your skin!
Very informative and came in handy!!
I'm so glad it was helpful!
Can you add a link to the two serums. Thank you

Do you recommend a different one for hyperpigmentation?
High frequency won't help lift hyperpigmentation but it can help prevent it by reducing the inflammation of acne. To lift hyperpigmentation, I recommend our TCA peel, egf serum and dermaplaning weekly to slough off the dead skin. Over time, you'll see the dark spots fade away! Email us at hello@stackedskincare.com for more info if you have additional questions!
Is this good for skin tightening?
No. This device is intended for acne
Can you use high frequency on the underarms?
Sure thing! You can use this device on face and body!
I electrocuted myself the first time i tried to use it and have been scared of it since😢
I want to ask you if I can use it on broken skin? If I have poped pimples can I use it on this sport?
Hi! Yes, you can use on a popped pimple. It will help heal it more quickly. Just follow my instructions and you should feel about a 4/5 tingling sensation and only use it for less than 1 min on that area daily. Ne sure to apply a healing serum and moisturizer!
Hi, is it safe to use around the eyes for dark circles?
I recommend using our microneedling tool with our Firming eye Complex for better result with under eye dark circles.
On my instruction it says I have to protect my eyes from ozone but I don't see anyone doing it, should I keep it closed?
You can keep your eyes open while using the high frequency device. You don't have to have them closed or wear any type of glasses when using.
Hi, I'd like to use it to dissolve too much botox in my eyebrows, fies it work for it? Thank you!
It's not the intended use of the device so I can't really say for sure, but I don't think it would work. Sorry!
@@StackedSkincare Thank you!
How can I get that serum for acne? Does it work for ingrown hairs?
You can purchase it on our website stackedskincare.com
For ingrown hairs, I recommend our tca face peel, it will gently exfoliate allowing the hairs to push thru to the surface. It's super easy to use, just apply a few drops at night after cleansing and leave on overnight. No need to rinse it off it self neutralizes!
Thanks for the great demo! Can this device be used to firm the facial skin and for treating fine lines and wrinkles ? TIA
Our high frequency device is designed to kill acne-causing bacteria treating cystic and hormonal acne and our comb electrode to help stimulate hair growth. If you want to focus on firming fine lines and wrinkles then try our HA serum with the Microneedling tool which will provide better results!
I have one of these and all the wands turn orange. Does that not offer the same results?
If you see an orange hue then it is neon gas which is great for stimulating growth. Argon gas gives off a violet hue and kills acne-causing bacteria underneath the skin.
I’m an esthetician student, can clients get the high frequency when having cavities? Our school doesn’t allow us to use it on other with contraindications and cavities is one.. they say we will taste metal.
I believe it's metal fillings, (known as amalgam), not cavities that can cause the metallic taste. :)
We do not recommend using the device if you have any type of metal in your mouth or face piercings. Cavities could be an exception as it is in the teeth and you are using the tool on your skin. You can always just avoid the mouth area if there are any concerns for cavities.
Can you use it more than once a day for deep cystic acne?
I recommend using only once a day. You risk drying our your skin and compounding the problem of creating more acne.
@@StackedSkincarethank you for getting back to me! I started treatment a week ago and a new cystic pimple surfaced. Is this normal? How long does it take for it to change my skin?
@HeatherWong79 you're welcome! Could be totally normal, the device is not causing another cyst, it was likely brewing. Depending on the severity will depend on how long it takes. Also, you need to be properly exfoliating your skin and using actives like growth factors and retinol. Our multi acid tca face peel, egf serum and retinol with the Hf device will speed up the healing and prevent acne a lot quicker. You can email us for more information!
Idk if it’s been asked but where can i buy the serum for the acne ?
You can purchase all our products on our site: stackedskincare.com/
Can we first apply salisaylic acid serum? Before the application??
Use the high frequency device on clean dry skin. Avoid applying acid based product prior to use. Apply after!
I was trying to use mine for the first time and when i tried to ground it with my finger it didn’t hurt at all but the feeling really scared me so I didn’t use it.
It's totally safe! Just turn the dial down on the lowest setting and you'll be fine!
I have a question if i have a toner for my scalp or a treatment for growth which is liquid do i use it before only ? Or i can put the toner wait till it dries completely and start the device ?
We recommend using the high frequency device first then applying your hair toner!
Hi,I wanted to ask if all the shapes of the things you put on do the same thing and have the same affection?Because I accidentally broke one of them :(
Any of the wands can be used and applied to your face and will work just as effective as the other. We designed different shapes to make it easier depending on where you are applying! You can repurchase any single electrode on our site! stackedskincare.com/collections/high-frequency
If I add this to a facial service, can I also do an enzyme treatment and hydrating mask? Or would this replace the exfoliation step?
Here is how you incorporate High Frequency into a facial with an enzyme and hydrating mask:
Cleanse
apply enzyme mask - you can do this while steaming
extractions
high frequency treatment
hydrating mask
apply serums
moisturizer
SPF
Do you need some kind of conductive gel on the face before using the wand?
You can apply a growth serum like our EGF serum but in most cases you will want to use the device on clean dry skin. Avoid applying any acid-based products on before, as it can cause some sensitivity.
May I ask.. what makes your product different from NuDerma? What are the main difference, pros/cons, etc? Can the company or anyone else help me know?
Hi! I can't speak to another companies product. Our device comes with 3 argon gas electrodes for the face, which kills acne causing bacteria and calms inflammation, and 1 comb electrode with a neon gas to stimulate hair growth.
We have a 1 year warranty and excellent customer service as my mission is to provide the best products, education and support for our customers.
We are a small female led company and I've been an aesthetician for 13 years
I hope that helps and I appreciate you reaching out. Let me know if I can help in any way!
@@StackedSkincare How do the gasses actually reach the skin? Do they pass through the glass?
@Lilyleaf This high frequency facial wand uses an argon gas electrode to emit a small electrical current that generates oxygen when applied to the skin. This oxygen travels into the skin to kill acne-causing bacteria within blemishes while reducing inflammation and redness
@@StackedSkincare I have a Nuderma, and the following day my skin was further inflamed and upset. It did not seem to help. Is that normal after first use?
@@Mossy179 that's not normal. Did you watch my video on how to properly use the device? Also, what else did you use with it? Might be helpful to email us and have customer service forward your email to me so I can best help you! Just tell them we were chatting on YT. Hello@stackedskincare.com. thank you!
Hi. If you do not have any acne issues can this help your skin? Thx
Hi! It can help to increase circulation to improve skin tone. However, I'd love to know your main skin concerns so I can best recommend products and tools suited for you!
@@StackedSkincare thank you for reaponding. I'm 52 and do not have any skin issues. Just working on hyperpigmentation and fine lines. I use a red light panel daily, microcurrent 3x/WK and have the Nira laser-uae that daily. I love devices and I use them. The hyperpigmentation is very hard to treat. Fine lines & wrinkles are here. I'm just working on trying to see if I can keep them from expanding :)) for now. Would appreciate hearing your suggestions
@michy2630 I can help with your hyperpigmentation! Can you please DM me on our Instagram? It's @StackedSkincare
I can send you more detailed links or we can set up a video chat. Looking forward to hearing from you!
thanks one question do your hair need to dry
Yes, when using the comb electrode make sure that your hair is dry before using! It is okay if your hair has some product in it
what happens if you don't lift up your finger once you put the wand on your face? Basically you keep it grounded the entire time? Does it matter if you use the purple or orange wand? My kit only came with orange wands.
You need to remove your finger after applying the wand to your face or the current won't work. Grounding it to start is so you don't feel the current immediately. You should have violet wands. Can you please take a video in the dark and send to customer service hello@stackedskincare.com? Put the device on and just touch the electrode with your fingertip. We will make sure to send you the correct ones if you have orange. Thank you!
Is there an alternative material at home to use instead of gauze?
You can use tissue!
@@StackedSkincarethankyou I already tried with this! Makes such a difference, felt the power of it more! Good to know it was safe to use tissue instead! Thanks for replying! ❤️
@@eyez2c you're welcome!
Do you really s see anti aging with this type of treatment and can i do it morning an evening it would total 8 min per day
In my honest opinion, no, I love these devices to treat acne and we have argon gas electrodes in our device. For anti aging, I recommend microneedling, peels, retinol, and a good moisturizing routine.
Yes I microneedle and microcurrent
Also, will this help with healing popped pimples?
Yes! Follow the instructions in my video and don't over do it. Ideally use our EGF after treatment to speed healing and a light moisturizer!
Can you use this everyday at home? Tia
Yes! You can use daily, limit to 1-2 min on any area or 15-20 min for your whole face. Make sure to properly moisturize your skin to prevent it getting dried out!
Could I also use this with red light therapy? Is it possible to use them in the routine, one after the other? Or is it best to use them on different days?
You can absolutely use it with red light therapy, I recommend using HF device first and finish with red light. Hope that helps!
Awesome! Thank you so much 😊
Do you take grounding finger off for all treatments? Can you get shocked?
We suggest grounding the device before applying the electrode on your skin so you don't feel a shock right away, but its not necessary. You can also turn the device on low then slowly increase the dial up to the level where you feel a slight zapping feeling, but it should not hurt at all.
Thank you so much for this video!
Happy you like it!
Thank you
Thank you for the great tips! I have freakles on my skin. It says on the instructions that it is not recommended for freakles.😢
hi is it okay to use the device after micro needling your scalp?
Yes, it is safe to do in that order. However, I would apply a hair growth serum, then use the HF device 1st and finish with the microneedling tool and another layer of tje serum. Hope that helps!
@@StackedSkincare thank you for replying!! is there any serum you’d recommend, which is good to use in combination with microneedling/HF device?
Can you use the comb if you have oil in your hair?
It will work better and penetrate deeper without oil. I recommend applying a hair oil after the high frequency treatment
So the wand doesn't make direct contact with the skin, but floats over it?
You can have direct contact. If you give space between the electrode and your skin it will penetrate deeper. You can use gauze to create space and make it easier to maneuver.
