Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro review
Six technologies in one body, including one nothing else here offers. It publishes its battery capacity and not a single figure describing what it does to your face.

Specification
What you get
A dual-head handheld combining electroporation, microcurrent, EMS, electric needles, LED and sonic vibration across seven modes - Booster, MC, Derma Shot, Air Shot, Mask and an AI mode among them - with six intensity levels.
Published electrical specifications: input DC 5V / 2A over USB-C, a 3.7 V 2,600 mAh battery, 34 x 177.3 mm, 150 grams.
The gap
What it does not publish
Read that specification list again and notice what is in it. Charging voltage. Battery capacity. Physical dimensions. Weight.
Now notice what is not. No microamp figure for the microcurrent mode. No milliamp figure for the EMS mode. No field strength for the electroporation mode. No wavelength or irradiance for the LED. Six intensity levels tells you the dial has six positions, not what position six delivers.
What is actually new here
Electroporation: the genuine differentiator
Electroporation applies brief electrical pulses to transiently increase cell membrane permeability, with the aim of helping topical actives penetrate further than they otherwise would. It is used in clinical and research settings and the underlying principle is sound.
No other device covered on this site offers it. If you have a serum you want to get further into the skin and you find the mechanism persuasive, this is the device that has it. The usual caveat applies: at an unpublished field strength, how much enhancement a consumer device achieves is not something anyone outside Medicube can assess.
Regulation
The clearance search
We searched the FDA 510(k) database by the Medicube brand and by the AGE-R device names on 13 October 2026. No record returned.
Medicube is a large Korean skincare brand with a substantial US retail presence, so this is unlikely to be an oversight, and plenty of cosmetic devices are legally sold in the US without a 510(k). But it does mean there is no outside review of this device to point you at, where NuFACE has eight. How to check any device yourself.
Breadth against depth
The multi-tool trade-off
Seven modes in one body is genuinely convenient and costs less than buying several specialized devices. That is a real argument and we are not going to dismiss it.
What you give up is that each modality is one feature among several rather than the thing the device was designed around. The dual head is a fixed geometry, not a set of attachments shaped for the jaw and the orbit. And none of the seven comes with a number attached.
In detail
Every pick, and why
Most modalities in one device
Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro
Medicube · Best for someone who specifically wants electroporation
Seven modes across electroporation, microcurrent, EMS, electric needles, LED and sonic vibration, with six intensity levels and a dual head. Published electrical specifications but no output figures, and no FDA clearance located for any AGE-R device.
A seven-mode multi-modality device that bundles electroporation, microcurrent, EMS, electric needles, LED and sonic vibration into one dual-head body.
Specifications
| Modes | 7, including Booster (electroporation), MC, Derma Shot, Air Shot, Mask and AI |
|---|---|
| Intensity levels | 6 |
| Head | Dual head |
| Power | DC 5V / 2A USB-C, 3.7 V 2,600 mAh battery |
| Clearance | None located |
FDA clearance not located
No 510(k) record located under the Medicube brand or the AGE-R device names in the public FDA database.
What works
- Genuinely does several jobs, and the electroporation mode has no equivalent in the NuFACE or ZIIP lines
- Published electrical specifications, which is unusual at this price
- Dual head covers ground quickly
What does not
- No located FDA clearance for any AGE-R device
- No published microamp figure, so it cannot be compared to NuFACE on output
- Seven modes means the microcurrent is one feature among many, not the focus
Specifications from Medicube retail specification; FDA 510(k) database query, 13 October 2026, checked 13 October 2026.
Honest counter-case
Who should skip it
- Anyone who wants microcurrent specifically. NuFACE publishes its output and holds eight clearances.
- Anyone who needs a clearance they can verify. None exists for this device as far as we could find.
- Anyone with an implanted electrical device. Every modality here is contraindicated.
- Anyone who wants to know what they bought. This is the device that tells you least about itself, and that is a reasonable thing to mind.
