Why: The NuFACE Trinity+ has been on the market a long time, much longer then most of the other micro current devices on Amazon. Also unlike most of the other devices on Amazon it is sold by an North American company. Since there have been varying reports about NuFace’s customer service I would strongly suggest when buying any electrical device you get the extra insurance Amazon offers to up the warranty to one or more years. For a small percentage of the sale price its worth it to ensure that you get the replacement you may need. I give this 7 stars only because one I am not sure you need all these extra products with the device. The brush and gels. Personally I buy another conductive gel off Amazon which has a lovely blend of Korean based ingredients in it. I love this one and leave it on for an extra face mask effect when I have time. Korean Conductive Gel.
I am also unconvinced that you need to use an extra tool which is the lip and eye attachment. I don’t see any reason why you cannot use the bigger device around these areas too.

Things to keep in mind….
The old Trinity from 2022 does not seem to work with the new attachments.
“This attachment is not sized for use with the 2022 Trinity Kit. The product design changed.”
A lot of these microcurrent devices have the same issue of problems with those that have silver fillings. So if you experience any issue with your teeth you should stop using whatever micro device you have immediately.
