 Inside the Nu Skin Galvanic Spa IIJul 10, 2009
By Bill Rankine
"Homeopathic Doctor"
The Galvanic Spa II device is a good, basic machine manufactured in China for Nu Skin Enterprises. The Spa generates 12 volts from the two 1.5 volt batteries, and is capable of reversing the polarity.
As the Spa is being used, the PIC microprocessor senses the current flow between the two electrodes (its tip and the skin), and regulates the amount of current flowing through and fixing it at about 200 micro amperes. It's is not a trivial function because it involves input current sensing, and output current control, in a closed loop system. The microprocessor also generates the beeps, and controls the LCD display. The program for the PIC is estimated at about 600 lines of code.
There is current modulation and current reversal built into the device. But it is surprising that there is no pulses of any kind.
It is a well constructed device, and there are three integrated circuits (including the 3 volt to ±12 volt converter), 11 transistors inside, plus lots of capacitors, resistors, and inductors.
One could probably duplicate the guts of the device for about $50 of electronic parts (the PIC16F72 is about $2.00). Of course, it's made in China, so the overall manufacturing cost for a single unit is probably around $40 when mass produced.
The ageLOC gels are very overpriced and there is nothing really new in the formulation. AgeLOC is a blend of ingredients, readily available and used in many other products. Rankine's Remedies offers an affordable, effective alternative to the costly ageLOC gels.

Worthless Galvanic SpaJan 11, 2010
By Full-time investor
"Full-time investor"
I used the galvanic spa, as directed, several times a week for 5 weeks, but only on ONE SIDE OF MY FACE. (It is time consuming to use) I could never tell any difference whatsoever in my skin. So at the end of 5 weeks, I asked my 27 year old daughter to look close at my face to see if she could identify which side I used the galvanic on. She picked the WRONG SIDE! She thought the UNTREATED side looked a little better. I am 59 and I really needed some skin help - I finally discovered that totally natural is best. Now all I use is aloe vera gel (a certain brand with oxygen & trace minerals added) and I don't have to ask my daughter if my skin looks better now. I can see how good it looks myself everytime I look in the mirror! Firmer skin, smaller pores, skin tags almost gone, less lines, lighter age spots - and it's only been about 30 days of use! I'll tell you all about it. [...]

 cured my acneJul 08, 2009
By Ms. Amelia R. Cohn
Yeah for Galvanics! It has totally helped my acne like nothing else I have tried. I had underground acne that other skin products could not get to. The Galvanics erased the line from my nose to my mouth and smoothed my rugged skin. I am so grateful I found this product!

Greedy CompanyApr 22, 2011
By L. Mitlyng
Having taken a look at their marketing scheme, this company is greedy. First they sell a product at a dramatically increased price (over $300) which some say cost about $50. to make. Okay that's not too bad. That's capitalism. But then they come out with a more efficient product and one reason they give for this increased efficiency is the improved face conductor. Now do you think that they make a new improved face conductor to work with the old model. Of course the answer is no. To get the new face conductor you must spend another $300 for the whole new system. I am not sure whether the new face conductor will work with the old system. When I asked I got conflicting answers from their company. One person thought no and another thought yes. But what is most telling about this company is they refuse to sell the new face conductor separately. So for all of you loyal customers who have been supporting this company and using the old Galvanic Spa II, you have to buy a whole new Spa II to get the benefits of the new face conductor. I call this greed.

Love it,but it takes time.Jan 03, 2011
By alice martin
I have been using the galvanic spa and gels for over a year, my skin has had a dramatic improvment. This is a product that will help your skin get better and better over time. You're not going to see dramatic results in a week, have patience it's worth it!!
