1. By your skin goal
- Deep cleansing — ionic cleansing & toning devices and sonic cleansing brushes lift away make-up and impurities and help serums absorb (e.g. Panasonic EH-ST63 / EH-SC65 / EH-XT30, BRUNO Ion Facial Brush).
- Lifting & firming — RF (radio-frequency) and EMS devices warm and stimulate the skin for a firmer, more toned look (e.g. Panasonic Vitalift RF EX EH-SR86, Vitalift Kassa EH-SP86, EH-XR10, BRUNO Warm & Cool EMS Lift).
- Hydration & steaming — nano-ionic facial steamers open the routine with warm, hydrating mist (e.g. Panasonic Aroma Facial Steamer EH-SA97).
2. Cordless & UK-ready
Most facial devices are cordless and rechargeable, and many charge with a 100–240V charger that works straight away in the UK. The Panasonic Aroma Facial Steamer (EH-SA97) is a mains 220–240V device with a fitted UK plug.
3. Genuine Japanese quality
Every device is 100% genuine Japanese stock — no grey imports — and is backed by HappyCare, our UK after-sales support.
Depending on the type, they deep-cleanse and tone the skin, help serums absorb, firm and lift with RF or EMS technology, or hydrate with warm nano-ionic steam — bringing salon-style facial care into your home routine.
Choose a cleansing device (ionic or sonic brush) for daily deep cleansing, an RF/EMS device for firming and lift-care, or a facial steamer for hydration. Many people pair a cleanser with a lift-care device for a full routine.
RF (radio-frequency) gently warms deeper layers of skin; EMS uses light electrical pulses to stimulate the skin; ionic technology uses a mild ion charge to lift impurities during cleansing and help skincare absorb. Different devices combine these for different results.
