Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro: What It Does & How to Use It
The Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro is one of the most talked-about K-beauty devices to come out of Korea right now — and if you've been considering adding an at-home beauty device to your routine, this is one worth knowing about. Combining six professional-grade technologies in a single handheld tool, the Booster Pro is designed to visibly transform the way your skin looks and feels, without a clinic appointment or a conductive gel in sight.
We now stock the Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro here at Incandeskin, with delivery across Ireland via An Post. Here's everything you need to know.
What Is the Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro?
The AGE-R Booster Pro is Medicube's flagship at-home Korean skincare device. Developed under the scientific leadership of biomedical expert Dr. Shin, it combines electroporation, microcurrent, EMS (electrical muscle stimulation), electric needling, LED light therapy, and sonic vibration into one compact tool. The result is a device that addresses absorption, radiance, firmness, contouring, and pore care — all in one routine.
Unlike many at-home beauty devices, the Booster Pro does not require a conductive gel. It works directly with your existing serums, essences, and creams, making it a practical and low-fuss addition to your daily skincare regimen.
The Four Modes — Explained
Each mode of the Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro uses a distinct technology to target a different skin concern. You can use all four in a single session, or focus on the modes most relevant to your goals.
Booster Mode (Electroporation)
Creates temporary micro-channels in the skin to help active skincare ingredients penetrate more deeply. Helps to visibly boost glow, hydration, and overall skin vitality. Use with a light serum or ampoule, followed by a cream or gel moisturiser.
MC Mode (Microcurrent)
Delivers gentle microcurrent to help volumise and firm the skin, softening the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Studies indicate this mode can help improve the appearance of facial volume and contour over time.
Derma Shot Mode (EMS)
Uses mid-frequency electrical muscle stimulation to help firm and define skin. EMS reaches slightly deeper than microcurrent, making this an effective mode for promoting a more sculpted, defined-looking complexion.
Air Shot Mode (Electric Needling)
Applies electrical pulses to create non-damaging micro-channels — a needle-free option that aims to visibly improve pore elasticity and skin texture. Used on clean, dry skin before applying any skincare. Recommended up to three times per week.
All four modes are supplemented by customisable sonic vibration. You can further personalise your routine via the free AGE-R app (iOS and Android), which lets you control modes remotely, adjust intensity and LED colour, build custom routines, and track your progress over time.
LED Light Therapy
Built into the Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro is a five-colour LED system, with each wavelength targeting a different skin goal. The LED colour changes automatically to correspond with your active mode.
- Blue — pore care and sebum control
- Orange — radiance and brightness
- Green — skin volume and firmness
- Red — elasticity and anti-ageing
- Purple — combined skin-smoothing
How to Use the Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro: Routine Order
Step 1 — Air Shot Mode: On clean, dry skin, before any products. Use up to three times per week. Start at intensity level 1.
Step 2 — Booster Mode: Apply your serum or ampoule, then use Booster Mode to help drive actives deeper into the skin. Follow with a cream or gel moisturiser.
Step 3 — MC Mode & Derma Shot Mode: With remaining product on the skin — no need to apply more at this stage unless skin feels dry.
For thinner skin areas (around the eyes, nose, and mouth), keep the device at intensity level 1. All four modes are suitable for use around the eye area with this precaution.
Who Is It Suited For?
The Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro is designed for all skin types and is particularly well suited to anyone looking to visibly address:
- Dullness and uneven radiance
- Fine lines and loss of firmness
- Enlarged pores
- Puffiness and loss of definition
- Poor product absorption
If you have sensitive skin, begin at the lowest intensity setting and build up gradually over your first few weeks of use.
What to Pair with the Booster Pro
The AGE-R Booster Pro works with any serum or moisturiser in your routine. That said, it's particularly powerful alongside high-performance Medicube actives — since Booster Mode is designed to help enhance absorption of whatever you apply. From the Medicube range stocked at Incandeskin, great pairings include the PDRN Pink Peptide Serum, the Deep Vitamin C Capsule Serum, and the Jelly Cream with Collagen.
Is the Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro Worth It?
The AGE-R Booster Pro is an investment piece — but one that replaces what would otherwise require multiple separate devices. Six technologies, no conductive gel, a companion app, and visible results that build with consistent use. For anyone serious about their skincare and looking to go beyond topicals alone, it's one of the most comprehensive at-home Korean skincare devices available right now.
The Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro is available now at Incandeskin.ie, delivered across Ireland via An Post.
Crucially, the Booster Pro does not require a conductive gel. It works directly with your existing serums, essences, and creams, making it a practical addition to your daily regimen rather than a complicated extra step.
