The study was conducted using randomised controlled testing of 97 participants, women aged between 35-55 years old.
Participants split into two groups, the test group and control group:
- Test group used stimulation for 12 weeks, 20 minutes per day, 5 days a week.
- One Slendertone Face treatment a week was held in the research laboratory, with others conducted independently by trialists.
The trial used ultrasound imagery, photographic evidence and psychometric questionnaires to obtain independent results.
