Dermatologist Melissa Kanchanapoomi Levin explains that jade rollers are trendy because they claim to "remove toxins from the skin, smooth fine lines, decrease dark circles and under-eye bags, ease tension headaches, calm inflammation, heal breakouts, brighten skin, and create an overall feeling of 'zen'." But does it actually do all that is promised?
Using a jade roller is a great way to show your skin some love, but it might not be as magical as it claims. Dr. Levin shared that it "can help to temporarily address puffy eyes and also is a relaxing addition to your self-care routine."
Using a jade roller can be a great way to massage your face and increase blood flow, but Esthetician Renée Rouleau doesn’t believe it can really tighten face muscle or reduce puffiness. If you’re looking to sculpt your face, only medical procedures will truly do that, so the jade roller is meant to simply be a relaxing way to end your skincare routine.
