Can you Rebuild facial bone loss with vibrational anti-aging skincare devices?
Yes, vibration devices—specifically low-intensity, high-frequency vibration therapy—have been shown in studies to help improve bone mineral density and potentially rebuild or strengthen facial bones. This technology stimulates bone-forming cells (osteoblasts) while inhibiting cells that remove bone (osteoclasts).
Wow!
That means that aside from just working on our skin and muscle with serums and microcurrent/EMS, we can actually help “lift” our facial contours by rebuilding bone.
That’s big.
It’s really one of the key factors in looking more youthful.
You can smooth wrinkles and eradicate dark spots with great serums.
You can tone and sculpt your facial muscles to look more lifted (with EMS/microcurrent/ultrasound).
And, by using the proper facial device modes (vibration), you can actually help rebuild your bone.
Using vibrational devices — one of my favorite modes to use on a device — can do this.
Vibration not only help instantly lessen puffiness by reducing the lymph and fluids, but can help generate cells to build bone. Even if it’s a gentle re-build, it’s something really helpful to your overall anti-aging regime.
Here is a breakdown of how vibration affects bone, particularly in the face:
-Alveolar Bone (Jaw) Growth: Studies show that applying high-frequency vibration to the jaw can increase alveolar bone density and aid in bone regeneration after tooth loss.
-Osteogenic Effect: The vibrations trigger mesenchymal stem cells to differentiate into bone-building cells, strengthening the bone structure.
-Reversing Bone Loss: Research suggests vibration can help reverse bone loss in osteoporotic cases.
-Dental Implant Stability*: High-frequency vibration devices have been shown to help strengthen the bone supporting dental implants, increasing their stability.

Key Considerations
Type of Vibration Matters: Most studies emphasize low-magnitude, high-frequency vibration (sometimes called LIV) for promoting bone growth, often defined as less than 1 gravity (g) of acceleration and frequencies over 30 Hz.
Application Method: While whole-body vibration platforms can help with overall bone density (hip and spine), localized vibration devices (applied directly to the teeth or jaw) are more effective for targeting specific areas like the alveolar bone.
Consistency: Daily use is often required, with results often reported over 6 to 16 months.
SKIN ENHANCER - Works with LED, Cool/Heat Modes, Special Mode for Eyes, Cleansing Mode, EMS microcurrent and Vibration - this tool does it all!
Yes, facial vibration is generally considered good for the skin as it boosts circulation, enhances product absorption, supports collagen, and helps with lymphatic drainage, leading to a brighter, plumper, and smoother complexion, but those with certain conditions like inflammation, rosacea, or pregnancy should avoid it. It works by increasing blood flow, delivering nutrients and oxygen, and relaxing facial muscles, making it effective for reducing dullness, puffiness, and fine lines,
» MY NOTE: Personally, I’ve been using these devices for a few years now and I will say that if I need to particularly do toning and reducing puffiness/fluid, I always reach for one of my vibrational devices (usually the SKIN ENHANCER or GLIDE ‘ N GLO). I use the CURVE on my body every spring/summer and I really like the EYE ENHANCER when I need extra help around my eyes.
*Not a Replacement for Traditional Care: These devices are most effective as an adjunct to regular dental care and professional treatments.
Disclaimer: It is important to consult with a dentist or healthcare professional, especially if you have significant, pre-existing bone issues.

THE CURVE - FACE & BODY TONING w/VIBRATION
CURVE - used with ultrasound and vibrational mode together, you can effect a much smoother, more toned appearance (and yes, the more you use it, the better the results!)
ADVANCED USER TIPS - See my post on using the CURVE for even better results
My favorite: Use with a vibrational board = impressive results!
