From the idea to the patent
The creation of Solo® derives from a careful and up-front research phase based on a scientific analysis and a consequent engineering phase guided by the Brescia-based firm Isinnova and Cristian Fracassi, who has led to the serial production of the innovative beauty tool and the acquisition of the patent as an industrial invention in the field of facial equipment in March 2021.
“The creation of Solo® was not easy. The product may appear simple: steel cylinders covered with a soft membrane. However, getting to the final product has required time and research because it is the first time that a whole steel item has been included in a polymer-based cover without any superficial sign. For this reason, we have developed an innovative print system, unique in the market, that allowed the complete covering of the steel elements of Solo® in a material suitable for direct contact with skin and perfectly adjustable to the conformation of every facial shape.”

The creation of Solo®
First, Solo® has been created to answer a specific shared need: maintaining a naturally young face and neck, giving them the same attention that has been dedicated to body care.
From this, with the professional experience of the Dr. Giada Sbalbi, who graduated in physiotherapy and sport science, we went in search of the solutions that science could offer.
Starting from the principle that our face is composed of muscles, we approached facial gymnastics and the idea of introducing ergonomic weights to be applied to the face for its own training.
This solution was immediately proved capable of eliminating the formation of expression lines by toning the muscle, allowing it to support the dermis and creating plumping and lifting effects that lead to a progressive relaxation of the epidermis with a visible reduction in the signs of aging.
Indeed, the muscular physiology dictate that, by lifting weights, the contractile component of the muscle, called myofibril, not only increases its volume, but also the number of myofibrils and their recruiting capacity (according to the “co-contraction” phenomenon).
This mechanism tones the muscle, allowing it to support the dermis, creating toning, plumping and lifting effects that lead to a progressive relaxation of the epidermis with a visible reduction in the signs of aging.
All that was left to do at this point was to study the shape of the weight so that it would be functional for universal use, i.e. it would be
- Ergonomic to be adaptable to any type of face;
- Capable of remaining stable during the movements thanks to sufficient grip to hold it firmly to the face without leaving marks or causing any discomfort.
The project
Analysing the anatomy and muscular biomechanics of the mimic muscles (shape, origin, insertion, and action), and drawing on physics (fulcrum and lines of force), we then proceeded to design through several stages:
1.
design of the shape
2.
definition of movements suitable for training every area of the face and neck
3.
distribution of the weight force
4.
definition of suitable dimensions, according to the size of the face of a significant sample of individuals (men and women)
Once the shapes, weight distribution and movements to be practised had been established, we moved on to the prototyping phase, which defined the structure (whole cylinders) and the material (TPE, a special type of thermoplastic polymer that has been used in medicine for more than twenty years and has no contraindications for use in direct contact with the face).
Having finally arrived at the desired results, Ing. Cristian Fracassi was commissioned to produce the Solo®, the first free weight designed for facial gymnastics.
