The face has its own Endospheres system, separate from the body roller, and one maker series behind it. We treat the face, and we make no claim about collagen, elastin or hyaluronic acid, which no study measures. The free consultation is with Dr Marie Duggan, GMC 7488383, at Endospheres Clinic, 8 Exhibition Road, London, SW7 2HF, with the price in writing.
What the one series measured
Nine volunteers had five sessions on the right side of the face. On imaging thirteen weeks after the first session, skin roughness on the nasolabial fold, the forehead and around the eye was 20.5% lower, and satisfaction averaged 8.11 out of 10. There was no comparison group, and the series is co-written by members of the maker's scientific committee. The maker describes a face course followed by two sessions a month, and publishes no per-area protocol.
What it does and does not do
On the face Endospheres is a mechanical massage for skin texture and tone, as the one series measured; we make no claim that it lifts, tightens or fills, and it is not a collagen treatment. For lines and laxity the doctor discusses other treatments at the consultation. The maker asks for at least 30 days after hyaluronic acid fillers before any Endospheres session.
The session and after
In our practice the face is treated with the maker's face system in passes over the cheeks, the forehead and around the eyes, with the pressure adjusted with you; the cheeks, forehead, eyes, nasolabial folds and neck pages cover each. In our experience the skin can look pink and feel warm afterwards, and you go straight back to your day; make-up can go on once the skin has settled.
Who it suits
In our practice it suits an adult who wants a firm mechanical facial massage over a short course for texture and tone, with maintenance afterwards. The maker's protocol excludes pregnancy and breastfeeding. The thighs and buttocks page and the abdomen page cover the body, and the full guide the rest.
