Teenage MP3 Player Technology Fights Acne

Technology is sometimes a bit surprising. Have you ever heard of music clearing off pimples? Oh, not actually the music, but the music player itself. This piece of technology is popular in Japanese markets, it’s known as mpion MP3 player. What is unique for this MP3 player is that it has some ion generators. It releases both negative and positive ions while listening to the music. As per instruction just hold the player to a spot on the face for like 10 minutes in negative ion mode and switch to positive ion mode after which.

There are products like ultrasonic / ionic face massager which uses ultrasonic vibration which does micro facial massage deep into the skin. The result is reduction in wrinkles, freckles, stains, blackheads, pimples and more. Similar principle being used in ionic face massager is implemented in this mpion MP3 player. Negative ions release or open up the skin pores and positive ions closes back the skin pores. Others think that this is just a fad and maybe have some placebo effect. Though it have some sound working principles behind, I am still thinking twice about this gadget.

This would be a product which is popular for students and teenagers, but the price of $184 or £86 is a little bit way above the range for a regular 128Mb MP3 player. If this gadget is way off the regular allowance, a teenager could grab a Instant Approval Credit Card just to satisfy some personal vanity. Did we have a real technology of vanishing pimples using an MP3 player? Everything remains to be seen yet.
