The ultimate guide to ZIIP Nanocurrent: benefits and results

For decades, microcurrent has been the industry-standard for professional in-clinic electric facial treatments. Evidence shows that the technology is safe and effective—not only for encouraging facial definition, but also for developing skin-plumping collagen. There’s a reason why some of the biggest beauty brands use microcurrent to power their home use devices. The results are instantly noticeable, even after four minutes. However, what really sets apart facials from the classic microcurrent treatment is the use of ZIIP Nanocurrent™.

Celebrity electrical esthetician, Melanie Simon, created the first microcurrent and ZIIP Nanocurrent™ device available for home use—giving people the chance to benefit from the same results without having to step into a clinic. She uses a blend of both ZIIP Nanocurrent™ and microcurrent in her professional, in-person electrical facials to simultaneously tone the muscles and tighten the skin. Here’s everything you need to know about ZIIP Nanocurrent™ and microcurrent. 

What is ZIIP Nanocurrent™?

ZIIP Nanocurrent™ uses extremely low-level electrical currents, typically in the range of 900nA to function in sync with the body’s natural electrical current. These tiny waveforms communicate with the skin on a cellular level below the surface. As a technique for reversing the visible signs of aging, ZIIP Nanocurrent™ is at the forefront of cell rejuvenation science. ZIIP Nanocurrent™ ‘intelligent energy’ prompts the cells to produce more collagen and elastin—proteins responsible for giving skin longevity, strength and suppleness. 

It can also be used to enhance circulation, reduce the appearance of blemishes and repair wounds and tissue, including spots and scarring, for healthier skin since it speeds up the skin’s natural regeneration process. 

What does ZIIP Nanocurrent™ do for the skin? 

ZIIP Nanocurrent™ facials stimulate the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the ‘energy-messenger’ found in living cells. ATP converts what you eat, drink and breathe into usable proteins found in the skin, such as elastin, collagen and hyaluronic acid. 

The production of this molecule declines with age. ZIIP Nanocurrent™ helps to maintain levels for long lasting firmness, elasticity and bounciness in the skin. Collagen and elastin are known to help reduce fine lines and deep wrinkles. Other benefits include an improved skin tone and accelerated wound healing for scars thanks to enhanced blood circulation.

What’s the difference between ZIIP Nanocurrent™ and microcurrent?

ZIIP Nanocurrent™ works on a cellular level to facilitate growth and repair and give a healthy, rejuvenated appearance. It achieves this by safely targeting the skin cells and tissues to generate kinetic heat, stimulating the skin’s natural production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.

Microcurrent works on a higher frequency of low-level electrical currents to exercise the facial muscles just like in a workout. Varying frequencies lengthen and shorten the muscles to increase strength, tone and release tension for the face and neck. This is the waveform you can feel.

  • How long do the benefits last?

ZIIP Nanocurrent™ provides both immediate and long-lasting results by stimulating collagen and skin cell regeneration. The more you use ZIIP Nanocurrent™, the more you'll see the effects, this is the HALO EFFECT. Microcurrent offers short-term benefits and requires frequent sessions. 

  • Which is more effective for anti-ageing?

ZIIP Nanocurrent™ is more focused on repairing and rejuvenating the skin, reducing fine lines, and making it tighter and firmer. Microcurrent is often used preventively to slow down the visible signs of ageing. 

  • What do they target?

The smaller wavelengths of ZIIP Nanocurrent™ can reach the deeper layers of the skin to promote collagen and elastin production. Microcurrent can stimulate low levels of ATP, but mostly targets the facial muscles.

Is ZIIP Nanocurrent™ better than microcurrent?

There's no definitive answer; it depends on your goals. ZIIP Nanocurrent™ provides long lasting results by stimulating collagen production and skin cell regeneration. Microcurrent, on the other hand, offers instant lifting and sculpting effects. Some professional estheticians will combine both treatments for comprehensive anti-ageing and skin improvement. The ZIIP HALO combines both ZIIP Nanocurrent™ and microcurrent technologies, allowing you to experience the advantages of both these waveforms when it's used.

Does ZIIP Nanocurrent™ tighten skin?

Yes. ZIIP Nanocurrent™ promotes skin tightening by generating kinetic heat from low-level currents when in contact with the skin. It encourages the production of new collagen and hyaluronic acid, resulting in a natural, plump appearance. 

What do dermatologists say about ZIIP Nanocurrent™ devices?

Dermatologists acknowledge the benefits of ZIIP Nanocurrent™ treatments, particularly for their ability to enhance ATP production and rejuvenate skin. While there's ongoing research, many experts believe in the potential of these waveforms. 

Are there any side effects from using ZIIP Nanocurrent™?

There is no pain or recovery time needed with ZIIP Nanocurrent™. You can’t feel ZIIP Nanocurrent™ waveforms because they’re not working on the surface, but rather deep within it. Side effects are very uncommon with microcurrent devices too. To ensure safe use, always read the contraindications of any device you purchase before you begin a treatment.

The verdict on ZIIP Nanocurrent™ and microcurrent

The choice between ZIIP Nanocurrent™ and microcurrent treatments ultimately comes down to your personal preferences and skin goals. While ZIIP Nanocurrent™ offers long-lasting benefits, microcurrent provides instant results. There is also proven evidence of the additional benefits you can achieve by having a facial or using a home use facial device with both microcurrent and ZIIP Nanocurrent™ waveforms. 

Many skin experts advocate for a combination of both currents to achieve comprehensive results. Regardless of your choice, they’re both safe and effective options for enhancing your skin's tone and reducing the signs of ageing.
