The correct selection and combination of procedures will help you look 10-15 years younger, so beauty clinics are in constant demand for these services. But before deciding on the rejuvenation of hardware, you should familiarize yourself with its main types, its characteristics, and also discuss with a specialist the presence of contraindications. This approach will allow you to individually select a set of procedures that will suit a specific patient and him in all aspects.
What is hardware cosmetology for facial rejuvenation
Hardware cosmetology combines rejuvenation and healing manipulations, which are performed with special equipment. The advantages of this technique include:
- high efficiency;
- impact not only on the superficial layers of the skin, but also on deep structures, subcutaneous tissue;
- complete absence or low degree of pain during the session;
- almost instantaneous manifestation of positive changes; Versatility
- - hardware cosmetology can solve many problems with the skin of the face or body;
- with no need for long-term recovery (such as after surgery).
The main disadvantages are side effects (most often minor - peeling, swelling, redness), as well as the need for a short period of rehabilitation or compliance with certain rules. In addition, there is a great risk of not contacting a professional doctor, but an amateur, whose manipulations can lead to complications.
Operation principle, result
Hardware cosmetology is based on the ability to penetrate microcurrents, laser beams, light, ultrasound or radio waves deep into the skin, followed by the stimulation of hidden reserves and activation of regenerative properties. The result of such an effect is the lifting of the contours of the face, smoothing of its relief, leveling of the tone, elimination of wrinkles of expression or age, folds, bags under the eyes.The action of the devices is also directed to the capillary walls and to the improvement of microcirculatory processes, which allows removing dark circles, eliminating the signs of hyperpigmentation.
To enhance the effect, prolong its durability, it is recommended to combine the techniques of traditional cosmetology with hardware methods.
Readings
Hardware survey techniques can be recommended by a cosmetologist when:
- decreased skin tone, opacity, fading;
- the appearance of fine wrinkles;
- irregular skin relief;
- worsening the severity of existing wrinkles or mimetic folds, vertical grooves;
- bruises or bags under the eyes;
- wings;
- second chin;
- enlarged pores, acne, post-acne;
- couperose;
- freckles or age-related hyperpigmentation;
- presence of scars, scars, stretch marks.
The main objective of the hardware lifting is to regenerate the skin, giving it freshness and elasticity. Therefore, after 25 years, you will be able to carry out preventive procedures that will maintain the normal condition of the skin.
Despite all their effectiveness, the active influence of hardware devices has a number of contraindications, including pregnancy with lactation, severe neurological or mental disorders, the presence of chronic pathologies, autoimmune diseases, diseasesblood, infectious or oncological processes, the presence of foreign bodies in the body.
The most effective hardware procedures for facial rejuvenation
Today, there are many types of cosmetic hardware procedures and their variations. Below is a list of the most effective and safe, according to experts.
RF-lifting
The most popular procedure, during which skin structures are exposed to powerful pulses of radio waves emitted by a special device.As a result, the metabolism activation process begins, fat cells are destroyed, fibroblasts are stimulated - "youth cells" responsible for the production of collagen.
Due to the fact that the design of the device allows you to adjust the intensity of the radio emission, the technique can be applied to different areas of the face, as well as the neckline, neck and chest. In most cases, to achieve the desired appearance, patients need 5 to 8 sessions, the frequency of which is defined individually.
The main advantage of fractional RF surveying is the complete absence of a rehabilitation period, minor side effects in the form of dry skin. The main disadvantage is a moderate effect after 45 years. Although, if you combine this technique with biorevitalization, conducting radio wave sessions is justified even at the age of 60.
Microcurrent hardware facelift
During the rejuvenation session, the device acts on problem areas with weak pulses of low frequency current. This stimulates the natural potential of old or weakened cells in the superficial and deep layers, activates their regeneration, simultaneously influencing the vessels of the face and the muscular structures. The duration of the procedure is 20-30 minutes, during which the beautician gently moves a special applicator along the massage lines, towards the center of the face towards its periphery. At the same time, patients do not experience much discomfort, except, perhaps, a slight tingling sensation in especially sensitive areas.
The most positive feature of the microcurrent facelift is the instant facelift. But that does not mean that one procedure is sufficient for rejuvenation - the effect after the first few sessions lasts only a few days.Only a physiotherapy course with 7 to 10 procedures can provide a long-term result.
Cryotherapy
A method of rejuvenation through exposure to low temperatures on the skin surface. In this case, there is a natural reaction of the skin, which consists of a sharp narrowing and subsequent expansion of blood vessels, as a result of the activation of blood circulation, oxygen supply and increased metabolic processes.
Cold treatment has been practiced since ancient times - Galen and Hippocrates recommended taking ice baths to cure many diseases.
With the help of cryotherapy, you can not only improve skin tone and elasticity, eliminate wrinkles on the face, neck or décolleté, but also get rid of defects such as:
- excessively oily skin;
- acne, post-acne; acne; age spots
- ;
- warts;
- scars.
In most beauty salons, the procedure is performed with a cryogenic spray that cools the skin to -180 ° C. However, the use of cryoelectrophoresis - subcutaneous injection of frozen preparations under the influence of a pulsating current - is consideredmore modern and effective. For the total effect, 9 to 12 sessions will be necessary.In addition to the typical contraindications for hardware cosmetology, criolifting should not be done for patients with hypersensitivity to cold.
Photorejuvenation
Soft-action hardware technique, does not lead to trauma and the appearance of any interference. The procedure consists of treating the problem areas with a special applicator that emits powerful flashes of light. Penetrating deeply (up to 3 cm), they promote the gentle heating of deep structures and stimulate the production of elastin and collagen fibers. After a fotolifting course, you can see the following positive changes:
- alignment of face tones;
- narrowing of the pores;
- contour tightening;
- eliminating or reducing the depth of wrinkles, folds;
- reduction of rosacea manifestations.
The disadvantages of the technique include the lack of an instantaneous result - the first manifestations of the effect are noticed only after 1, 5 months, low efficiency after 55 years, a very high price and seasonality (it is undesirable to have exposure to light in summer).
Laser rejuvenation
A technique based on simultaneous action in deep and superficial layers. The high temperature laser beam corrects surface defects and, penetrating deeply, stimulates internal self-healing, the synthesis of useful components, which leads to the natural renewal and rejuvenation of the skin surface. Despite being less invasive, the procedure is considered difficult and performed in a stationary environment, also requiring a short period of rehabilitation.
LPG massage
An effective method to combat the first signs of aging, superficial wrinkles. The success of LPG massage is in the simultaneous operation of special and vacuum rollers, which allows it to act on subcutaneous fat, stimulating the production of collagen. In addition, the procedure is good because it does not require rehabilitation and is almost never accompanied by side effects. In addition, this massage is expensive and the full course consists of 10-15 procedures.
ELOS rejuvenation
Technology, during the implementation of which a complex of optical and laser energies is used. During the Elos rejuvenation session, the subcutaneous layers are heated to a high temperature, which stimulates the synthesis of fibers responsible for the health and youth of the skin. This allows to solve the problem of pigmentation, rosacea, align the skin relief, correct wrinkles of varying severity.
Ultrasonic survey
A technique that implies the effect of a wave-shaped acoustic pulse on superficial and deep subcutaneous structures under constant ultrasound control on a monitor. At the same time, the integrity of the skin is not damaged, requiring no further rehabilitation or special treatment of the face. The method is widely used for sagging, drooping eyelids, double chin, flaps, deep wrinkles or furrows. The downside is the need for pain relief before the session.
Which devices are used - a list of the best
For the survey to be as effective as possible, before performing it, you should ask a specialist on which device the procedure will be performed. So far, recognized as the best:
First device to receive US FDA lift certification. Before the advent of this device, such a deep intervention could only be performed surgically, since the action of the device is directed not at the skin itself, but at the muscle-aponeurotic layer. In this case, constant visualization and monitoring of the status of subcutaneous structures is performed.
Highly efficient focused ultrasound device with a high degree of control through deep scanning of dermal structures. It allows you to solve the problem on time, without affecting the zones without problems. For rejuvenation, only one session is necessary, after which the effect grows for 2-3 months and lasts up to 1. 5 years.
Household equipment
Portable lifting devices are quite expensive, but at the same time they allow you to take care of your skin without going to a beauty salon. Unfortunately, such devices are not able to correct serious defects due to their low power, which is provided for the safety of consumers. For preventive and general health purposes, it is best to use time-tested models.
