Microcurrents, LED lights, cryotherapy — when it comes to skin tech that’s now attainable at home, the limit does not exist. There are so many options to choose from, but one device that’s currently on the lips (err, skin) of every TikTok beauty creator is the Solawave Radiant Renewal Wand.
For context, the hashtag #solawavewand has over 1.4 million views on the app and is flooded with thousands of skin-care enthusiasts across the globe shouting its acne-clearing, sag-reducing powers from their phones. So, what’s all the hubbub over this slender tool? Well, it combines the powers of soothing heat, contour-defining galvanic current technology, and acne-targeting LED lights to overall enhance the look of your complexion — seems too good to be true, especially for its under-$200 price tag, right?
…Well, you’re wrong. As one of the biggest skin-care skeptics to exist, I put Solawave’s most popular product to the test — and I was pleasantly surprised to find that the Radiant Renewal Wand lives up to its hype, and then some.

Overview: The Solawave Radiant Renewal Wand
This impressive device seemed to become the biggest thing in skin care overnight, but why? Well, its combination of four different skin-improving technologies is definitely enough to catch people’s eyes. As stated earlier, this pocket-sized tool utilizes spa-level tech including LED light therapy, vibration-powered facial massages, and soothing warmth to tackle a multitude of skin concerns. The Radiant Renewal Wand fuses these tech specs into one little gadget to target dullness, fine lines, puffiness, acne, you name it.
Fun fact: Solawave’s Radiant Renewal Wand is an upgraded version of its original wand. The brand decided to elevate its already-popular device after it received feedback from consumers to make the device more user-friendly. The latest specs of the wand 2.0 include the addition of an on/off button, two additional LED lights for improved efficacy, 180-degree head rotation, and magnetic charging.
But what especially makes the Radiant Renewal Wand stand out from its predecessor is the inclusion of galvanic current technology. According to the brand, this is an alternative to microcurrents that are supposedly faster-acting, help open pores, and encourage product absorption — but we’ll get deeper into this in just a second.
The facts behind LED light and galvanic currents for skin
Well, the better question would be what doesn’t the Solawave Radiant Renewal Wand do? Consider this teensy facial tool as your Swiss army knife of skin-care devices — after all, it’s definitely the size of one. Though it is small, its ability to minimize puffiness and enhance the look of contours arguably outperforms some of its bigger (and pricier) counterparts.
