Are the results on firming/toning the face more effective and quicker with the 1mm or is .5mm just as good? Thanks in advance for your help!

I have no basis of comparison. I just know that the .05 works well for me and I am pleased with the results. I would be a little leery of starting out with the 1mm first. It may be something you need to build up to. Good Luck.

I cant say about the 1mm, since I bought and use the 5mm and it's working pretty good for me. I've read in other forums that it's better to start with a 5mm and then advance to a 1mm. Hope that helps!

I was advised to use 1.5 for wrinkles. I have been using that for 2 months, followed by Hyaluronic acid and am very pleased with the results. My wrinkles were DEEP and they have now soften and have become shallow. This is not a fast process, but I can see that I am headed in the right direction.

I like using it everyday but it's because I like the tingling feel of it, also because it just makes my face feel great! It won't harm using it that often (hasn't me). Sometimes I will twice a day, when I have time, which I try to make the effort cause I love the results. Seems that it makes my face look lifted as long as I keep using it, that's what I've observed! Hope that helps. Good Luck!

I've been using the .5 for a few years. The 1.0 can dry your skin out a bit if you are not accustomed to the higher strength.

I would say it DOES help even your skin tone among other things. My cheeks and jawline were burdened with acne and acne blemishes. I barely noticed results when using this as a Mask 1x/wk basis, and even 2x/wk. This week, I used this as a nightly "Rinse", and now my face is almost blemish-free. I already use a konjac sponge to exfoliate my skin, then apply the clay (mixed with a few add-ins). I keep the clay on no more than five minutes, rinse, then moisturize. I did this for seven nights in a row, and WOW. What I looked like the Monday before I started this is pretty damn yucky compared to what I look like by the next Monday morning. I wish I had thought to try this sooner. I would say it DOES help even your skin tone among other things. My cheeks and jawline were burdened with acne and acne blemishes.

From what I've read on other reviews, you can use the body formula on the face. I think they came out with that one first anyways and the face product is a newer addition. I used it on my face though and did not care for it. Like my review says, the product is kind of rubbery once it forms, and it ended up getting stuck on the light peach fuzz (I am Asian and have very little to begin with) and it definitely kind of hurt picking off the little rubber balls of product on my face. Lately, I have been using Origins Modern Friction as a deep exfoliator once a week and I really like it. Good luck.

To my surprise, these liquid softgels seem to work better and faster than the powder brands. I've previously used a powder brand before and prefer the results I am getting from taking this one. My skin is starting to look great after a short period of time. I hope this helps you in your selection.

VERY easy to use. only one moving part, the wheel. :O) i bought this one and then bought the 1.0mm because "i felt" that the .50mm was not going deep enough. i didn't "feel" it working. it will take a while to see results. my laser treatments took a few months.

I read somewhere that you use it monthly. I got a .5mm one as well and use it two or three times a week and am loving the results!

its actually pretty thick. The 1.3 inches are for all 5.But I still wouldnt recommend this to use if on your face. But It would be very useful on wounds such as legs or arms. Heals very fast. But a bit too thick for me. Hope this helped.

I have different sizes for different areas. I have been using the 1.0 for my face, 0.5 for around the eyes and 2.0 for body areas. I hope this helps. I actually did my face last night.

I did not really find any differences in the 'sizes'. I thought I bought 2 sizes, a Med for me, and a Small for my wife. But after using them both, I have yet to find out which is the smaller one. In reality, you must buy it and try it out. If you try it out, just remember to minimize any stubble around the mask / face interface. Also test the seal on the mask... meaning plug the side filter holes (with them off) and inhale. If the mask sticks to your face, you are good to go. If not, they the face / mask seal is bad. Sweat or Vaseline can help make that seal better. After all, that seal provides the filtration benefits you are purchasing the mask for.

I bought it for Christmas, I started using it then. I also use and infa red lifter I got many years ago. Together It took nearly 5 years off my face. I use a buffer, infa red, and this wonderful machine. The red for the stimulation , the blue to shrink the wrinkles...............I was going to buy one of the more expensive ones , but you know this works about the same. I am 63.............so if I get new compliments swearing I am in my young 50's it was worth it to me. Highly recommended and easy to use. I hope you enjoy it.

to get used to the roller I would start off with the .5 then the 1.0 isn't so bad, also the 1.0 gets the best results fastest but is a little too long for the forehead and neck area, at least that is what I think from my own experience. The 1.5 is great for deep holes on the face and thigh area, 1.0 is good for stomach such as stretch marks. Definitely use a numbing cream if you are going to use the 1.0 and higher. I don't have to use the numbing cream anymore I am used to the needles now. I have found the stamp works great on ice pick acne scars. Tea tree oil works great on healing the scars fast but it stinks you would want to dilute it first but make sure you don't use it the first 2 days so it doesn't stink. Also acne or any scar if you stamp or roll really good then wait at least 6 months to redo them give them plenty time to heal. Hope this helps.

I have super sensitive skin and also use Retin-A and Tazorac to help with acne and wrinkles. I had the Mia and currently use the Olay Pro-X (the one with 3 speeds). I haven't had any problem with it. I use it every day on the highest speed and I try to hold it with gentle pressure to my skin ( though I sometimes catch myself pushing it against my nose to get off flaky skin). So far, I personally have had no issues with it. I really like it (more so than the Clarisonic Mia which I had before).

I would buy the smallest MM roller for use on your face. The 1.5mm hurts on my thigh, so it would definitely bring blood on the face.
