Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro vs Booster Pro X2

Disclosure: Glow & Current earns a commission when you buy through links on this page, at no extra cost to you. It does not change which device wins or what we say about it — here is exactly how we are funded, and here is how we evaluate devices.

Both generations combine six technologies in one dual-head body: electroporation, microcurrent, EMS, electric needles, LED and sonic vibration, across seven selectable modes - Booster, MC, Derma Shot, Air Shot, Mask and an AI mode among them - with six intensity levels.

Electroporation is the genuinely distinctive one. It uses brief electrical pulses to transiently increase cell membrane permeability so topical actives penetrate further, and no other device on this site offers it. We cover that against NuFACE here.

Prices are checked live and stamped with the date they were read. No live price is held for these listings right now, so every button reads “Check price on Amazon” rather than showing a number we cannot stand behind. Last price check: October 13, 2026.

That table is the honest output of the research. When a manufacturer releases a revision and does not publish what changed, the only things a buyer can compare are price and availability.

Medicube deserves a small amount of credit here. It publishes input voltage, battery rating, dimensions and weight for the Booster Pro, which several far more expensive devices on this site do not. That is more hard data than FOREO gives you.

It is just not the data that tells you what the device does to your face. Battery capacity tells you how long it runs, not what it delivers while running.

We searched the FDA 510(k) database by the Medicube brand and by the AGE-R device names. No record returned for either generation.

Medicube is a large Korean skincare brand with significant US retail presence, so this is unlikely to be an oversight. Many cosmetic devices are legally sold in the US without a 510(k). It does mean that when you compare this device to a NuFACE or a ZIIP, you are comparing a product with a reviewable regulatory record to one without. How to check any device yourself.

The original

Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro

Medicube · Best for if it is substantially cheaper

Seven modes, six intensity levels, dual head, published electrical specifications (DC 5V/2A USB-C, 3.7 V 2,600 mAh). Also no clearance and no output figure. If the discount is real, you are not giving up anything documented.

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.

• The X2 if the price difference is small. It is the current revision and will stay supported longer.
• The original Booster Pro if it is meaningfully discounted. Nothing published distinguishes their performance, so a real discount is a real saving.
• Neither if what you want is microcurrent specifically with a documented output. NuFACE publishes 340 microamps and holds eight clearances.
