An additional aim is to assess the acute (i.e., single) use of microcurrent or microcurrent + cold therapy on measures of skin health. The primary question it seeks to answer is whether daily use of the TheraFace Pro Gen 2 alters facial skin characteristics. Secondary aims include collecting clinical images, professional photographs, and consumer perceptions of the device.\n\nParticipants between the ages of 25-65 with various skin types will be enrolled for participation. Participants will visit the clinic three times for collection of outcome metrics at baseline with microcurrent therapy, baseline 2 using microcurrent + cold therapy, and 8 weeks after baseline. Measurements include: expert clinical grading, digital imaging, subjective assessment of skin, and clinical grade-images.","At home treatments to minimize and\u002For reverse the effects of skin aging has been gaining popularity over time. Two treatments commonly used in spa-settings to achieve these goals are microcurrent therapy and cold-therapy. Microcurrent therapy is a gentle skin treatment that uses low-level voltage to stimulate the facial muscles. This low-level voltage is applied during microcurrent facials to help tone and firm the skin by causing subtle muscle contractions. Localized cold therapy helps reduce inflammation by narrowing blood vessels and decreasing blood flow to the treated area. The central aim of this study is to investigate both acute and chronic (8 weeks) use of an at-home device that delivers both microcurrent and cold therapy on skin health. Participants will complete two acute baseline visits in randomized order, microcurrent alone and microcurrent + cold therapy in order to assess the acute effects of this therapy. Participants will then complete 8-weeks of microcurrent + cold therapy lasting about 8 minutes\u002Fday using the Therabody TheraFace Pro Gen 2 at home.

The resistance of the skin to be sucked up by the negative pressure (firmness) and its ability to return to its original position (elasticity) are calculated and displayed as curves. The Cutometer outputs include many parameters of different portions of the measurement curve including R0 (Uf, firmness), R2 (Ua\u002FUf, gross elasticity), R5 (Ur\u002FUe, net elasticity), R7 (Ur\u002FUf, elastic portion) and R9 (R3\\[last max amp\\]-R0\\[Uf\\], fatigue). Elasticity will be reported using the R5 (Ur\u002FUe) parameter, as the skin becomes more elastic this value will increase.
