Convenient, multitasking, and effective. It’s no surprise that the popularity of beauty devices has skyrocketed in recent years.
These clever tools offer an alternative to expensive spa treatments or surgical procedures and allow us to take control of our skincare routines from the comfort of our own homes.
An advanced device that stands out from the myriad of tools on the market is the one that offers not one, not two, but six different modes to target a wide range of skin troubles. Let us introduce you to YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP.
To find out just how effective the YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP is, Daily Vanity invited five readers to try the skincare device for one month. Spoiler alert: the average verdict for the device is 4.6 out of five stars!
About YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP
From clogged pores and acne to wrinkles, pigmentation, and facial sagging, YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP is able to tackle a multitude of skin concerns. That’s because it taps into the power of radiofrequency (RF), which delivers heat to the deep layers of tissue.
When applied to the targeted area, it causes heat-producing molecular friction that contracts our collagen fibres, thereby giving the skin an instant tightening effect.
This way, RF can soften the look of fine lines and even firm your facial contours both instantly and over time, which explains why aestheticians and dermatologists adore the treatment.
For those who’d rather indulge in its collagen-inducing benefits at home, consider YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP. It combines professional-grade technology in a single device, making it easy to incorporate into our skincare routines.
Let’s take a closer look at the different modes:
- CLEAN mode with ION cleansing: Great for clogged pores, blackheads, and textured skin. For optimal results, use it with RF Booster Pad, which is made with ultrafine fibres and contains cleansing ingredients to remove dirt and dead skin cells.
- NEB mode with deep iontophoresis: This hydrates dry or oily skin and uses Dynamic Hyper Pulse (DYHP), which is developed to enhance the penetration of beauty ingredients in your skincare products.
- NEB mode with (W) on: Best for pigmentation or dull skin. You can pair it with whitening products to target pigmentation even further.
- EMS mode: It helps to tone and lift the facial muscles, giving a more youthful appearance. This mode is perfect for sagging skin and a puffy face.
- COOL mode with blue LED: This mode is ideal for those with acne-prone skin as blue LED light has anti-bacterial properties, which help to kill acne-causing bacteria. It also reduces redness and inflammation, leaving the skin looking clear and healthy.
- Eye Care mode: Gently warms the eye area with RF and microcurrent to depuff and reduce fine lines.

Summary
All of our reviewers agreed that YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP is an easy-to-use skincare device that delivers results in a month.
Those who used the CLEAN mode observed smoother, cleaner skin that was less clogged. Reviewers with acne-prone skin enjoy the COOL mode, which gave them tighter skin and smaller-looking pores. Meanwhile, those who loved the EMS mode saw firmer, more lifted skin after four weeks.
After the first use, three readers saw brighter, cleaner skin; and after four weeks, all five of our readers noticed softer, firmer, more moisturised skin with lighter dark spots and pigmentation.

Skin type: Oily, combination-oily
Skin concerns: Dull skin, uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation/dark spots, textured skin (e.g. small, rough bumps), sagging skin, dehydration, visible/enlarged pores, clogged pores, blackheads/whiteheads
The cleansing device I used previously didn’t leave my face feeling clean, but the YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP left my skin cleaner and smoother after the first use.
I pair the CLEAN mode with the RF Booster Pad and the Only Minerals Extra Moisture Lotion, and it removes dirt and residue from my face, leaving my skin soft and smooth.
My facial muscles feel tighter, and my eyes appear less puffy. The device also moisturised my skin, resulting in a bouncier, more hydrated complexion.
It has plenty more functions that are easy to use. I would choose the YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP over other devices I’ve tried in the past.

I like how classy and chic YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP looks.
I always pair the Booster Pad with the CLEAN mode when I use the device – it leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth as it removes extra dirt and residue from my face on the cotton pad.
After using the smart device for a month, I experienced several positive changes in my skin. These included increased softness and hydration, less dryness and redness, and a clearer complexion with tighter pores. My facial muscles feel tenser and my face looks more lifted overall, thanks to the EMS mode.
My favourite mode was COOL, because it made my pores smaller and my skin tighter. Overall, I’m pleased with the results and loved the cold function of the device.

YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP is a sophisticated device that offers modes that I needed.
After using it for the first time, my skin looked brighter and I especially liked the COOL mode. It diminished the acne and soothed my red patch overnight. After a couple of days, the acne was gone and the scars were barely visible.
I use it every alternate evening before going to bed. I start with the CLEAN mode and the Booster Pad followed by other skincare products paired with the respective modes.
YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP has been effective at removing extra dirt and residue, which I can see on the cotton pad. After using it, my skin looks calmer, with reduced redness and tighter pores. It’s also looking brighter and my pigmentation and dark spots have lightened.
I’ve noticed my skin feels firmer and my facial muscles feel tenser, which is great. Additionally, my dry skin feels much more hydrated and my skin is much cleaner and less clogged. Compared to other skincare devices I’ve tried, this is gentler and easier to handle.
Overall, I’m delighted with the results and would definitely recommend this device.

Skin concerns: Sagging skin, dehydration, visible/enlarged pores, blackheads/whiteheads
After using YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP for the first time, my pores appear tightened and my skin feels firmer. I’ve even noticed that my facial muscles feel tenser. My face looks more lifted and I can see the difference. I was already looking forward to using it again.
The skincare device has provided remarkable results for my skin type. After four weeks, it has made my skin softer and more hydrated. Plus, it tightened my pores and gave me a brighter and firmer complexion.
I also noticed a reduction in puffiness around my eyes. Overall, I found this device to be more effective than other skincare devices I’ve tried.
Cathryn, 46
Skin type: Normal
Skin concerns: Uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation/dark spots, dehydration
Previously, I tried another skincare device, but I didn’t feel like it made a difference in my skin.
With YA-MAN Photo Plus Prestige SP, I used the RF Booster Pad as part of my double cleansing routine and the NEB mode to lift and brighten my skin.
When I checked in on my skin the morning after using the device for the first time, I noticed that my skin felt brighter, cleaner, and lifted, with no breakouts on my chin.
A month later, my skin looks brighter and my face looks more lifted. Pigmentation and dark spots have lightened too. I could feel the difference, and my colleagues were also curious about what I had done to my face recently.
