What does BioMechanical Vibration do when using the Curve Face and Body?
VIB – Biomechanical muscle stimulation sends gentle vibrations that work on muscle fibers and stimulate core muscle. The effects are particularly beneficial for speeding up metabolism by improving the supply of nutrients and oxygen to tissues - for smooth, healthy skin.
What does LED do when using the Curve Face and Body?
The red light LED (625nm) has a warming effect on tissues, tendons, and ligaments. This heat increases the blood circulation in the body and triggers healing processes. Muscle tension is eased and the supply of nutrients and oxygen to the tissues is improved. The red light stimulates the metabolism and the removal of toxins and undesirable metabolic deposits.
What does Radio Frequency do when using the Curve Face and Body?
RF – RADIO FREQUENCY (300KHz) The radio frequency waves cause selective heating of fat cells and collagen fibers. The electromagnetic radio frequency waves vibrate the water molecules in the tissue layers, creating frictional heat. This frictional heat induces warming of the connective tissue cells. This results in a tightening of the collagen and a renewal of the tissue - which is visible as a firming of the surface of the skin.
What does Ultrasound do when using the Curve Face and Body?
Ultrasound is sound waves (300,000/sec) which cause the tissue to vibrate at a cellular level. As a result, the fat cells under the skin "open" and the fat that comes out is directed into the lymphatics and drained. In addition, cell activity is measurably increased and this causes collagen formation to occur. The lower the frequency of the ultrasound, the deeper the effect of the cavitation on the fatty tissue.
Will the Curve Face and Body make pigmentation issues worse?
I have not seen pigmentation issues get worse. I recommend using a brightening serum (Brighten the Day or Triple C + Gold) under the conducting gel for extra care.
Will I use the Curve Face and Body in place of other devices?
No. You would use the Curve Face and Body along with other devices.
For example, the TMP is smaller so it is ideal for the eye area, temples for fine lines, upper cheeks and forehead. You'll still need to use your Clareblend Mini Microcurrent as those probes are ideal for delivering microcurrent to those tough to get to place for muscle lifting.
This Curve Face and Body can only use be use up to 3 times a week and up to 15 minutes each treatment, so use other devices on alternating days/treatments.
Will the Curve Face and Body cause fat pad loss on the face?
If you are concerned about fat pad loss on the face, use the device without RF turned on or at lowest setting of any modality. This device doesn't heat to the point of undesirable fat pad loss when using for 5 minutes in duration. When using on body parts where fat cell reduction is wanted, use at higher settings for the full 15 minutes.

How do I select modalities of the Curve Face and Body?
Pressing POWER button once (MODE 1) turns device on and activates LED and RF (No VIB and No Ultrasound) For Face, Neck, Décolleté (or skin only vs fat/cellulite on body)
Pressing power button second time (MODE 2) activates LED/Ultrasound (No RF and No VIB) For Cellulite/Fat on Body
Pressing power button third time (MODE 3) activates LED/RF/VIB (No Ultrasound) For Face, Neck, Décolleté (or skin only vs fat/cellulite on body)
Pressing power button four times (MODE 4) activates Ultrasound/VIB (No LED and No RF) For Cellulite/Fat on Body
After choosing modality, user can choose level by pressing the second button (up/down indicator) with one click for low, two clicks for medium, and three clicks for high. clicking a fourth time returns to low.
Press and hold the POWER button for a few seconds (hear double beep) and release to turn the device OFF.

Tell me everything about the battery and charging my device.
CHARGING GET A FULL CHARGE BEFORE FIRST USE. Allow 2.5 to 3 hours for full charge. Getting a good full charge BEFORE the first use, will ensure the battery holds a charge longer.
Do NOT use device while plugged into charger. This will destroy the electronics inside the device. This device does not come with an adaptor because many modern homes now have USB plugins.
If you do not want to plug into a USB port, you can use an AC adaptor and plug into a wall outlet. Do NOT use FAST-CHARGING cell phone adapter. Device will not hold charge.
If you want to purchase a portable power bank/charger you will need one that is rated for 5V and has 20,000 – 40,000 mAh for the charge to last longer. Less than 20,000 mAh just means you’ll have to charge the power bank more often. Larger than 40,000 mAh and you lose portability.
After you start using the device, it will beep when charge is low and will beep more often, as it gets closer to losing the charge completely.

We recommend gently cleaning the device immediately after use with an antibacterial wipe. Keeping the unit clean will extend the life of the device.

What is difference between the Curve Face and Body and Time Master Pro?
The Curve Face and Body is 4 modalities (technologies), instead of 3. The Curve Face and Body contains Ultrasound at 300,000 sound waves per second.
The Time Master Pro is 90,000 sound waves per second. The Curve has RF (300 kHz). The Time Master Pro does not have RF. Both devices have LED.
The Curve has very gentle BioMechanical vibration. The Time Master Pro has EMS which is more intense on the skin.
The Curve is much larger than the Time Master Pro covering more area. However, the Time Master Pro is ideal for treating smaller areas such as the eye area, temples, cheeks, and forehead.
