TYPES OF MICROCURRENT

BEAR 2 is the only microcurrent device that features 4 types of microcurrent, unique to FOREO. Each has its own special benefit, and is implemented into the video-guided treatments on the app, for optimized results.

Advanced Microcurrent - Steady current stimulates muscles to strengthen them, while tightening skin above.
Lifting Microcurrent - Repeatedly staggers current from low to high frequency, gently coaxing muscles into naturally lifting, for a contoured look.
Tapping Microcurrent - Quick and short waves of current flow through the upper layers of the skin, to brighten and plump.
Sculpting Microcurrent - Channels microcurrent deeper into muscles to effectively tone them, for a firm & sculpted appearance.

APPLY SERUM
Make sure both your skin and BEAR™ device are clean and dry. Then apply FOREO SUPERCHARGED™ Serum evenly across all areas of the face / neck you wish to treat, leaving a thin mask-like layer on the surface of the skin.
SELECT PREFERENCES
Press the universal button to turn your BEAR™ device on. Adjust the microcurrent intensity by quick-pressing the button again, once for each level. Access guided treatment videos and more settings via the FOREO app.
Note: BEAR™ 2’s default setting is ‘Beginner Mode’ (microcurrent intensity levels 1 - 5). If you wish to access ‘Pro Mode’ (microcurrent intensity levels 6 - 10), you can do so via ‘Settings’ in the app. Once you select ‘Pro Mode’, the intensity indicator lights on your device will refer to the Pro Mode levels (6 - 10).
TONE & LIFT
Lightly press both metallic spheres to your skin, and slowly glide the device upward and outward across your cheekbones and forehead, around your mouth and over your jawline and neck, as desired.

THINGS TO NOTE

Microcurrent devices like BEAR 2 must be used with a conductive serum. For optimal results, we recommend using FOREO SUPERCHARGED™ Serum 2.0 — developed specifically for use with FOREO’s microcurrent devices, and clinically proven to significantly increase type 1 collagen production.
Leave a thin, mask-like layer of FOREO SUPERCHARGED Serum on skin, so the device can glide smoothly. If treating many areas in one session, you can apply the serum to each area before you use the device on that area.
Never use microcurrent devices like BEAR 2 on the midline bone of the neck, or within the orbital bone.
Make sure that both microcurrent spheres are touching your skin during your treatment. Always glide the device in upward and outward motions, from the center of your face toward your hairline.
