EMS Microcurrent Eye and Cheek Patches

EMSTIGHT EMS Eye and Cheek Patches bring the eye area and the mid-face into one coordinated fifteen-minute session. Four hydrogel patches, each with its own host unit, all controlled from a single remote — so every area runs at once and your hands stay free.

How the ritual works

Cleanse and dry the skin. Position a hydrogel patch at each outer eye and one across each cheek, and smooth them against the skin — no water, serum or gel is needed, because the patches are self-adhesive and conductive. Clip a host unit onto each patch, then set the mode and intensity from the remote control. The session ends on its own after fifteen minutes.

One host unit per patch

This is the part most people do not expect. Each patch gets its own host unit — four patches, four hosts — so the eye and cheek areas are treated simultaneously rather than one after the other. The single remote control drives all four together, so there is one mode and one intensity to set, not four.

When the patches wear out

The host units and the remote are reusable and recharge over USB. The hydrogel patches are the consumable part — they lose their grip and their conductivity together, and how long a pair lasts depends mostly on how clean and dry the skin is when you apply them. Replacement patches are sold separately at £19 — a handed pair for the eye and cheek areas, a single wide patch for the forehead.

Use and suitability

Prepare, place and operate the product exactly as described in the instructions supplied with the device, and review all precautions before first use. Do not run the device for longer than fifteen minutes at a time.

Not suitable for anyone under 15. Those over 15 should use it under the supervision of a parent.

Do not use this device at all if you have a pacemaker, defibrillator or any other implanted electronic medical device, an artificial heart or lung, or if you wear a medical electronic instrument such as an ECG monitor or heart-rate regulator.

Speak to your doctor before using it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or if you have a heart condition, abnormal blood pressure, a cranial nerve abnormality, epilepsy, a malignant tumour, an infectious or acute illness, abnormal bleeding, sensory nerve loss, cognitive impairment, reduced sensation caused by diabetic circulatory problems, a skin disease or skin infection, a known allergy to electrode pads, metal implants in the treatment area, or if you are taking medication or have a temperature above 38°C.

Where the patches go. Use them only on the areas shown in the supplied instructions. The eye patches sit on the skin around the eye socket — never on the eye or the eyelid itself. The cheek patches sit across the cheek and may be repositioned along the jawline or around the mouth, but never on the lips, inside the mouth, or on the front of the throat. Never place a patch on broken, irritated or sunburned skin, on any mucous membrane, directly over the heart, or on a site where you have had plastic surgery. Avoid skin treated for hair removal the same day.

Clean and dry the skin first, then press each patch down so the whole surface is in contact — an air gap concentrates the current in one place and can sting. Do not use while intoxicated or while feeling unwell. Stop immediately if you feel discomfort or the skin becomes red or itchy. The devices do not run while they are charging.
