Cosmetology helps prolong youth. And there are many procedures for facial rejuvenation, the main thing is to choose the right one. . .
Effective procedures allow you to choose your own approach to any skin type and solve problems of any complexity. The only drawback is the sometimes high cost of some techniques.
Age-related processes, which cause hyperpigmentation, wrinkles and creases, loss of firmness and elasticity of the skin, are associated with the loss of collagen fibers and elastin that are naturally produced in the body. It happens that the reason for insufficient synthesis of these components is improper diet, smoking, alcohol abuse, wrong choice of cosmetics or lack of rest and physical activity.
However, for whatever reason, modern cosmetology can offer solutions. The techniques are most often designed specifically to activate natural processes that cause gradual skin renewal. That means its natural rejuvenation. Which facial rejuvenation procedure is chosen is usually decided based on several factors:
- budget,
- indications and degree of age changes,
- personal preferences.
Note! It has a negative effect on the skin and the environment, so don't forget to use protective equipment! This will help maintain youth for a longer period of time.
Youthful skin without surgery
To maintain a youthful face without plastic surgery, you need to remember a number of measures that significantly slow down the aging process:
- Properly selected home care, including cosmetics suitable for skin type, natural remedies and regularity;
- Injection methods for beauty restoration;
- Use of hardware techniques;
- Facial rejuvenation threads.
The essence of this complex is simple: supportive home care and care help to provide the skin with proper hydration, nutrition and timely cleansing. This is what the skin needs to maintain its elasticity for longer.
Injection techniques make it possible to compensate for the lack of hyaluronic acid and other useful substances, as a result of which the synthesis of collagen fibers is activated. Some methods include the use of Botox, which soothes the muscles of the face, thus reducing the appearance of fine lines.
Hardware cosmetology involves the use of equipment that affects the deep layers of the skin using ultrasound, light rays, lasers, high-frequency electrical pulses, electromagnetic waves or radio frequencies. The result of this effect is cleansing the skin of keratinized cells, activating the natural processes of collagen synthesis and eliminating imperfections.
Lifting the thread aims to repair skin that has lost elasticity. The injected drugs gradually dissolve, but during that time they significantly rejuvenate the body.
Hardware rejuvenation
Modern cosmetic equipment allows you to choose individual recovery programs for each patient. Skin regeneration is often painless and without negative consequences. However, the use of equipment is associated with a number of contraindications, which should be known in advance.
In any case, a visit to a highly qualified cosmetologist usually does not take place without a complete examination that allows you to correctly determine the course of therapy.
Ultrasound Capabilities
Ultrasound waves penetrate deep layers of the skin, affecting only certain types of tissue, not what should not be. So, to ensure facial skin regeneration, old collagen fibers are heated by ultrasound. Such influence leads to their destruction and, consequently, to the regeneration and release of new ones. At the same time, the quality and texture of the skin is significantly improved, muscles become more elastic and fat deposits, such as double chin, are removed.
Ultrasound also facilitates liposuction by breaking down adipose tissue for its subsequent removal.
After the application of ultrasound lifting, the rehabilitation period is minimal, and the effect can last for a longer period without recovery. The disadvantage of this technique is the significant cost.
Laser Techniques
Laser exposure allows the treatment of both the upper layers of the skin and the deep. In the process of exposure to a directed beam of light, keratinized cells and dead skin particles are removed, its structure and relief are restored, and foci of scar tissue and scars are destroyed.
After the procedure, the changes are immediately noticeable, after a while the effect becomes more noticeable. Areas of laser-heated collagen fibers are replaced with new ones, causing a tightening effect.
Most laser procedures are painless and safe, although they are not without some contraindications. The skin's skin supply is also improved. The laser allows you to even out skin tone and get rid of hyperpigmentation.
With all the advantages of this method, its cost is also not the cheapest. A more affordable technique for facial rejuvenation is the use of a fractional laser. There are several possibilities of exposure, some implying an almost immediate effect. The others need to wait a little longer for the result. The advantages of the fractional laser are in the removal of acne, rosacea, scar tissue, in addition to which enlarged pores and sagging skin disappear.
Thermage - exposure to electromagnetic waves
This hardware technique also allows you to work with the deep layers of the skin, causing the activation of the regeneration process in them. As a result, the number of collagen fibers increases and the cells regenerate. Allergic reactions are absent. This technique is more cost-effective than laser or ultrasound.
Photorejuvenation
Similar to laser, photorejuvenation also involves exposure to light beams, but is much cheaper. The positive aspects of this technique are:- Elimination of rosacea;
- Work on reducing acne;
- Decrease the number of fine expression lines;
- Effective removal of hyperpigmentation, freckles, moles;
- Ability to remove permanent makeup.
This method does not allow working with deep wrinkles.
Injection methods
Injections help skin care with essential substances and provide it with natural rejuvenation. There are several methods, and the cosmetologist selects the type that will be most effective for each patient.
Mesotherapy
The method available to almost every patient includes the introduction of certified preparations based on natural ingredients:
- hyaluronic acid,
- fibroblasts,
- vitamin complex,
- collagen and elastin,
- pyruvic acid,
- connective tissue cells,
- glycolic acid.
Botox
Botox injections are aimed at reducing excessively mobile facial expressions that provoke the formation of wrinkles on the face. Today, this is effective and one of the most affordable techniques many women turn to.
Hyaluronic acid gels
Using gels is also not very expensive. It allows you to effectively increase the volume of the lips, correct the contours of the face, there are almost no contraindications.
Note! The use of gels implies that after applying the drug, some muscles will have to remain at rest.
Rising ozone
Ozone injections have a wonderful effect on facial skin, this rejuvenation procedure allows you to restore skin tone, improve blood circulation and smooth wrinkles.
This method cleanses the skin of dead skin cells and restores its firmness.
Plasma therapy
Involves injections into the skin based on the patient's own blood plasma. Plasma is enriched in fibroblasts or platelets. Whichever method you choose, the result will not be long in coming:
- new collagen is synthesized,
- wrinkles disappear,
- improves the path,
- skin turgor returns,
- eliminates looseness and relaxation.
Thread Lifting
First of all, it should be said that this type of lifting can be with the use of absorbent threads or with the use of those that are not absorbed naturally. When they are not inserted, there will be no injuries, no visible traces will remain. The effect is a noticeable tightening of sagging skin and restoring the contour of the face.
Absorbent filaments cause the appearance of natural skeletal collagen, which has existed for a long time without correction. They do not absorb, usually gold or other materials, remain in the skin.
Note! Similar techniques include such facial rejuvenation procedures as enhancement, biorevitalization, and three-dimensional modeling. Basically, they come down to the same procedure as thread lifting, but differ in preparation. The ideal option should be chosen taking into account individual characteristics.
Elos rejuvenation
The technique is based on the use of light pulses and high frequency current. It does not cause painful symptoms and is safe for health. As a result, natural regeneration is started, due to which the skin becomes smooth and elastic. However, this cannot be achieved in one go. The Elos methodology involves the use of a course of several sessions. The number is given according to the indications of a certain patient, but usually at least five sessions are needed.
Salon peeling
Another way to restore the face is peeling. In addition to the above peels using laser or ultrasonic wave, other methods are used:
- non-hardware mechanical
- chemical,
- fruity,
- diamond.
In the first case, the skin is prepared in advance and then cleansed by mechanical action. Fruit and chemical peels include cleansing the skin with acids.
Massages
With the help of massage techniques, you can also restore tone, ensure youth and beauty of the skin. There are many massage techniques, some involve the use of equipment. Most effective:- lymphatic drainage (removes swelling),
- hydromassage and Japanese massage,
- using silver spoons,
- liquid nitrogen cryomassage,
- darsonval using accessories.
The cost of treatment is very different, but still within reasonable limits.
Cryotherapy
This type of technique should be singled out, because they are based on the use of liquid nitrogen. In this case, the shock can be reported manually, using high frequency current or using a special spray.
The cost of the procedure is high, but the efficiency is quite impressive. However, many are afraid to resort to this type of cosmetic procedure because there are rumors of side effects. In practice, negative results are seen too rarely.
