If you haven't already got a massage gun, you’ve heard the hype. These muscle-pummeling machines slipped from gym-bro circles into the hands of the everyman somewhere around the original lockdown. It was at that point when sheer boredom pushed us into real, proper fitness (and real proper aches).

Therabody is undoubtedly one of the biggest names in massage tech (its original Theragun is widely considered the gold standard) and now, the brand has finetuned its ‘percussive therapy’ to create the world’s first muscle gun – for your face.

Where body-focused muscle guns are targeted towards post-gym recovery, the TheraFace Pro is meant more for relaxation and grooming. The small ergonomic device features an impressive range of protocols that place it at the more advanced end of the booming skin-tech arena (if you aren’t shining LED lights onto your face, or giving your jowls tiny electric shocks, you're way behind).

First: the percussive therapy. The Theraface Pro comes with a trio of smooth silicone attachments that click (via magnets) onto the tip, delivering a massage to relieve stress. The three speeds allow you to run the gamut from mild relief to an intensive treatment for chronic teeth clenching.

So far, so massage-y. But it’s the tech attachments that really make the Theragun a serious investment. Click on the multi-spectrum LED light ring (which works alongside the percussive therapy) to treat your skin while you ease out that jawline tension. Studies have found that the red LED setting can boost collagen production, which leads to plumper, more resilient skin in the long run, while the blue setting is proven to kill off the bacteria that contribute to acne breakouts.

Really taking things up a notch, the microcurrent attachment works to tone the facial muscles. With the conductive gel on your skin, the two spherical metal probes glide across the facial contours, sending tiny electrical pulses through the muscles, training them to tone up. If you're skeptical, fine: just do one side of your face first.

And if you fancy going in, there are heat and cryo attachments that can be bought separately. The former is a truly relaxing move, while the depuffing action of the latter will make your Bank Holiday hangover less visible (if not less painful).
