What’s the difference between micro current and EMS electronic muscle stimulation?

Let’s talk about their similarities first: they both stimulate the skin through electrical currents

Micro current: Micro current is a low-level current that enables facial stimulation by sending gentle, gentle waves through the skin and tissues to the facial muscles. Micro current has been shown to stimulate the production of ATP, stimulate the vitality of facial muscles, and promote the production of collagen and elastin.

EMS: The full name is Electrical Muscle Stimulation. It directly stimulates motor nerves through external currents, triggering muscle contraction movement, so as to achieve the purpose of actively allowing muscles to exercise.

Difference:

1. Different functions

Micro-current is the use of micro-current to stimulate the production of ATP in the human body and accelerate the synthesis of skin collagen.

EMS Myoelectric Stimulation is an electromagnetic wave that stimulates the muscles to achieve muscle movement, thereby lifting and tightening the loose skin.

2. Different forms of expression

When using micro current, it is necessary to apply conductive gel as a medium. The function of the gel is to introduce micro-current into the human body. Under normal circumstances, the current introduced into the human body cannot be felt by the human body. If it feels tingling, it means that the current has not been directly introduced into the human body, and bounces on the surface of the human skin, so the tingling occurs, and gel needs to be added.

Just keep the skin moist when using EMS, and you can obviously feel the muscles vibrate when stimulated by the current.

3. Use experience

EMS: The output current is large, which directly stimulates the facial nerve to cause facial muscle movement, and has a relatively strong sense of current stimulation.

Micro-current: A low-level current that mimics the micro-current of the human body, gently massages and stimulates facial muscles and skin, with almost no stimulation.
