Hi, what makes this better than a regular facial sauna system with mask?

I do not have any experience with the type you are talking about. I do like the ozone feature on this one because I believe it helps reduce bacteria on the skin and in my sinuses. I am still very happy with my purchase.

Stream of steam is adjustable - very comfortable to use . You can be doing other things etc while using steamer. Mask system is a bit claustrophobic and you have to sit still while using

There are several ways to use this device and some contraindications too. I am an Aesthetician and Spa Owner with over 20yrs in the industry, so I could write a book here with all of the information that would be necessary in order to explain the benefits and uses. Please be more specific with regards to what you need this for, also is it for home use or are you a skin professional yourself? Thanks.

I wasn't sure, so I read the box. I actually like that it is a cool temperature. This is filled with ergoBeads (specially designed plastic beads). There is no mention of warming the mask; the box does mention 'freeze in sealed freezer bag for maximum relief'.

I agree with all the comments here. I've had this sauna for a couple of years now and it's still going strong. With everything you sweat out, you most likely put back when you drink water. But, it's great for the skin and great for flushing toxins out of your system which could help with weight loss (along with a clean diet).

I put a little bit on one of my wife's makeup remover pads and leave it in the sauna. I usually only do it when I am sick and having trouble breathing.

It's not super hot. I've tried a lot of different mask and I really like this one. I'm a mouth breather too and this works well for me. I have been hand washing to keep it clean and free from dust etc.

I occasionally clean my mask, but not as often as I did before using the SoClean. It is just my personal preference. When I decide that I want to clean my mask I usually just wipe it with a c-pap wipe, which are also available on Amazon. The main advantage of the SoClean, is that it sanitizes your mask and tubing thus lowering the chance of respiratory infections caused by a dirty machine. I have also found that it extends the usable life of my mask and pillows. I would definitely recommend getting one whether you want to clean your mask in addition to using it or not.

I can fit my mouth and nose at the same time. It's got a little cut out to rest your nose on that works perfectly. The bigger mask is to steam your whole face I believe.

hot water will burn... the product should already be a burning feeling on your face. why would you want to put more hot on it. common sense

We started w that sauna. However, when we tested it for EMF's we found it was way over the safe limit. We returned ours and purchased a $4500 safer sauna for 2. We love it. As I recall, it would fit someone that size, but then you'd be mighty close to the heaters.

I do both. When I want more intense steam, I put my face (nose and mouth) up against the flexible plastic. When I want less intensity, I just hover above it and continue to inhale strongly. Every time I use it, I feel more relaxed and my nasal passage feels better.

I've my facial steamer for several months. The cool mist & the steamer work great. I drain out the water once a week to make sure everything clean. I use drinking water for this facial. It worth every pennies.

For it to be a personal sauna it gets pretty steamy. But I rig mine a certain way retain as much steam as possible. I sit completely in it on the floor! I close up the zips and place a towel over the hole that's for placement of the head. I haven't measured the exact temperature but as someone who loves a sauna at a gym, to have a personal get as hot as this one does, I'm pleased

Exactly, Philips have some explaining to do here. Surely facial skin is tougher than some other obviously delicate areas on your body, so it cant be (I hope) the fact that it will rip at your skin. But also if it shaves as close as it says it does, in all areas of your body it would find facial hair removal easy, regardless of whether you go for a close or a 5 o'clock look.Mooi

Just a moisturizing cream. May not be necessary because face feels moisturized after the mask.

It was designed to fit a wide range of Spa's. It has a low power consumption and will not be good enough for large spas though. Another point is that it only maintains the temp where it is turned on at. It will not heat the water hotter. Put it in our jacuzzi bathtub and its great. Keeps the water temp just where we want it for an hour or more. For this it is perfect.

Face and Neck primarily as it has a moisturizer and sun protection; like B. Faris responded. For body, you can find something cheaper; this would be expensive for the whole body.
