NuFACE Trinity Comparison | Plus Vs Original – Anti-Aging Device Review

At the time of writing, the original NuFACE Trinity device is no longer available for purchase on the official NuFACE website. Therefore, it is pointless showing a comparison chart but I will give my honest review on how I got on with the Trinity +.

I had been watching the hype over the NuFACE microcurrent device user for years, but didn’t just want to jump on the band waggon without convincing evidence. After seeing results from some honest reviews I knew it was time to get my hands on one and to at least use it for the temporary results, so I purchased the original Trinity device and used it for a year until they brought out the upgraded version. It had served me well as it became part of my regular self-care routine, offering gentle facial toning that helped me maintain a more lifted, refreshed appearance — especially around the jawline and brows. But as time went on and my skin’s needs evolved (hello, hormonal shifts and natural ageing), I found myself wanting more customisation, power, and efficiency from my device.

When NuFACE released the Trinity+, I initially hesitated — after all, I already had the original. But after researching the new features and reflecting on my skincare goals, I decided to make the investment. And I can honestly say: it’s been worth every penny.

Here’s why:

Stronger Microcurrent & Boost Button
The Trinity+ delivers more power, with a higher maximum microcurrent output. But what truly sold me was the Boost Button — this feature increases intensity by 25% in targeted areas like the jowls, brows, and nasolabial folds. I use it when I need that extra “sculpted” look or feel like my face is holding tension. The results are more noticeable and quicker than with the original device.

App Connectivity for Guided Treatments
I’m someone who appreciates structure, and the Trinity+ pairs seamlessly with the NuFACE app. I can follow along with guided routines, switch up my treatment depending on how much time I have, and even track my progress. It’s ideal for women like me in their 50s and 60s who want to stay consistent but flexible. The app offers quick 5-minute lifts or longer targeted sessions — it’s like having a facial coach in your pocket.

Sleek Design & Contactless Charging
This may seem like a small thing, but the contactless charging is a game-changer. With the old Trinity, I was always fiddling with the charging cradle. The Trinity+ just clicks onto its base — effortless and elegant, much like how I want my skincare to feel. The device itself is also more ergonomic and modern-looking. It fits beautifully on my vanity and feels great in the hand.

Magnetic Attachments
Swapping attachments on the original Trinity could feel a bit clunky. With the Trinity+, the magnetic heads make it quick and easy. I like using the Effective Lip & Eye attachment on days when I want a little extra lift in those delicate areas.

My Honest Takeaway
Upgrading to the Trinity+ wasn’t just about getting the latest version — it was about meeting myself where I am now. My skincare needs have changed, and I wanted a device that could support that gracefully. The added features give me more control, better results, and a more enjoyable routine. It’s like going from a reliable classic car to a smooth, tech-savvy hybrid — still gets you where you need to go, but with more finesse and ease.
