Contour With ReFa: Facebook Takeover

Your questions now answered from Japan’s No#1 beauty tool, the one and only – ReFa.

With endless benefits involving exquisite Japaneses craft, kneading, and next level skincare results, these masterfully crafted products are considered to be the Rolls Royce of beauty devices.

We’re delighted to have ReFa recently takeover our Facebook page for a Live Q&A, providing all the lovely fans out there the chance to get all of your questions and concerns answered.

Question: What exactly does the ReFa CARAT do? It looks so interesting since seeing it in Japan.
Answer:

It is a very relaxing body and face roller. ReFa generates a very safe level of micro current which is generally said to improve the blood circulation and so good for blood flow.

Question: Since the CARAT improves blood circulation, is that what helps our skin look and feel better as well?
Answer:

Generally speaking, good blood circulation stimulates the skin cells and get the skin cells re-activated for a good and smooth skin surface.

Question: I have wanted to try a massaging device for my face to help with blood circulation and lymphatic drainage. Do you think this would help improve puffiness under my eyes?
Answer:

We have many positive responses from consumers for this. Discover the below Beauty Massaging device to find out more.

Question: Will it minimize lines around my mouth and lift up my cheeks for a refreshed look?
Answer:

I cannot claim effectiveness as it varies depending on the person and how they use the device, but we’ve received so many positive response from consumers using ReFa on these areas.

Question: Hi, I am curious what would be the best product to help with fine lines? In particular, lines on my forehead as well as under my eyes.
Answer:

I would highly recommend the S CARAT; a smaller version of the ReFa CARAT as it can reach to a very tiny area such as in-between eyebrows or laughter lines and the forehead. Please visit the link below for more product information on the S CARAT.

 

Question: Can this help tone up my double chin, or the puffiness around my chin area? My face is starting to fall with age.
Answer:

ReFa has an amazing gripping sensation when you use around your face line, so hopefully it will help!

Question: I'd love to have firmer facial skin! Does this really work for that?
Answer:

The result varies depending on the person so I cannot say 100% guaranteed, but we have positive responses from MANY consumers 🙂

Question: Is this ok to use around the eye area?
Answer:

Yes, totally fine. But I’d recommend to not put too much pressure on top of the eyeball.

Question: I have very sensitive skin. Is the ReFa CARAT safe for me to use?
Answer:

For people who have very sensitive skin, I would highly recommend to try to roll ReFa over your arm first. Since the two roller parts are coated by platinum, I have not seen many people who have had reactions but as I am representing a Japan manufacturer, I would say on their behalf that you might need to take a very cautious step when using ReFa.

Question: What does it feel like?
Answer:

You should not feel anything special except a strong gripping sensation from two rollers, (unless your skin is VERY sensitive.)

Question: If we choose to use the ReFa Carat with a serum or lotion, are there specific products we should use? Anything we should not use with this device?
Answer:

You are totally fine to use ANY kind of your own favorite serum or lotion before rolling ReFa. BUT make sure to clean your ReFa after use as the serum or lotion will stay on roller parts. To clean ReFa, you can completely wash it as it does not have a battery in it. It is also waterproof.

Question: Can the CARAT be used with the High-Tension-Mask? How often can you use this device/daily at least?
Answer:

I would use ReFa CARAT every day! Since ReFa CARAT has an amazing (really amazing) gripping sensation, I would not recommend to use CARAT whilst wearing ReFa High Tension Mask. The ReFa CARAT will pick up the mask very easily because of these unbelievable gripping sensation.

Question: Is ReFa meant to be used only on your face? Can it be used on any other parts of the body? Like arms or legs?
Answer:

ReFa can be used for the ENTIRE body! From the scalp, to face, shoulder, underarm, calves, and even on the barefoot!

 

Question: How does this work? How is it different from the NuFACE device? Any impact on cellulite?
Answer:

Yes, it is very different to the NuFACE device as we use ReFa for the entire body. We cannot claim that it has an impact on cellulite but we found some customers saw an improvement from use.

Question: What are some of the benefits of being able to use this on the entire body?
Answer:

Good blood flow and release of all muscular tension. I use CARAT for the scalp every day as it’s very relaxing.  It is a solar powered beauty roller; no battery or charger is needed.

Question: Can your devices be shared among the family members?
Answer:

Yes they can. Since ReFa CARAT is completely waterproof, you can simply wash and wipe out and share with your family!

Question: How long do you have to typically use this to start seeing results?
Answer:

A LOT of people have said you can find the difference after 5 minutes of use! BUT you might want to keep using ReFa every day!
