Burning Lift: A Futuristic Skincare Machine

Revolutionizing Home Skincare with Ihyeon Yun's Design

The Burning Lift is a cutting-edge skincare machine designed by Ihyeon Yun. Inspired by science fiction movies, this smart home care product combines advanced technologies to provide users with an effective wrinkle management system and optimal skincare synergy.

The Burning Lift stands out from other skincare devices with its unique properties and strengths. It integrates four types of technologies, offering powerful effects on facial skin. The compact and slim design of the main body ensures a comfortable grip for users. Additionally, the touch-colored LCD provides a user-friendly interface, allowing for easy control. LED lighting on the body and handpiece intuitively displays the operation status, adding to the device's aesthetic appeal. The combination of high-gloss white and rough black colors gives the Burning Lift a professional and smart image.

The realization of the Burning Lift involved the use of various materials, including ABS, polycarbonate, acetal, acrylic, rubber, stainless steel, and anodized aluminum. These materials contribute to the device's durability and functionality.

Measuring 480mm by 300mm by 187mm and weighing 6kg, the Burning Lift is a compact and lightweight skincare machine that can easily fit into any home environment.

The interaction with the Burning Lift is intuitive, thanks to its touch interface. Users can effortlessly navigate through the device's features and settings, ensuring a seamless skincare experience.

The design process for the Burning Lift began in March 2019 in Seongnam and concluded in September 2020. Throughout the project, extensive research, including conceptual and formal research, idea sketching, 3D modeling, mock-ups, and prototyping, was conducted to refine the design and optimize its features.

One of the main challenges faced during the design process was miniaturizing the device while incorporating four different technologies. However, through innovative problem-solving and meticulous attention to detail, Ihyeon Yun successfully overcame this obstacle.

The Burning Lift represents a new era in skincare technology, where personalization and futuristic design are paramount. By providing an easy-to-use solution for at-home skincare procedures, this smart device caters to both producers and consumers, offering a unique and satisfying experience.

The Burning Lift has been recognized for its excellence and creativity, receiving the Bronze A' Design Award in the Medical Devices and Medical Equipment Design category in 2021. This prestigious award acknowledges designs that demonstrate ingenuity, resourcefulness, and a commitment to improving quality of life through art, science, design, and technology.
