Susannah’s Microcurrent Journey, Part 6 of a series
For context: I’m Susannah Nation, the new-ish owner of Moonstone Skincare, and formerly of Real Kind, the little Novato apothecary with the mosquito spray and kickass skincare products.
I lost 40 pounds with Wegovy—and now I’ve got loose skin, a complicated relationship with my mirror, and a renewed interest in building confidence.
So I’m strapping in (literally) for 8 microcurrent sessions in 24 days, the same 24 to Contour September challenge that we just opened up to our clients. I’m documenting all of it: the awkward photos, the weird muscle spasms, the wins, and the moments where I question all my life choices.
Let’s see what happens together. (Secure your spot in the limited 24 to Contour Microcurrent Body-Sculpting Challenge here.)
My 8th and Final Microcurrent Session
I finished my eighth and final microcurrent session yesterday. I haven’t been posting after every session because, honestly, once you’ve seen a few photos of me with wires stuck to my abdomen, you’ve seen them all.
But here’s the thing: I didn’t expect much from the before-and-after photos. I felt better, yes—my back no longer aches, my abs feel like someone finally woke them up, and I’m sleeping better than I have in years. Still, I assumed the visual results would be underwhelming.
So after my final session, Hope snapped the last set of photos. I didn’t even look at them until late last night. And when I did, I nearly spit out my tea (OK, fine, it was wine).
From the side view, my abdomen is… noticeably slimmer. From the front, the sculpting is obvious too—though, let’s be clear, I still very much have a middle-age mom belly and I still don’t work out.
Here’s what I didn’t change:
My diet. I eat what I want in moderation.
My activity level. I walk two miles a few times a week and call it good.
My evening wine habit. No comment.
And yet—results. Actual, visible results. I didn’t expect them, but there they were.
So, seeing is believing. I did the eight sessions as prescribed, no more, no less, and got results that surprised even me.
