Facial rejuvenation procedures

Anti-aging procedures are modern cosmetic methods, actions aimed at correcting skin changes caused by age. Most of them have a hardware or injection focus. The choice of a specific type is based on the individual characteristics of the patient. Age and physiological characteristics, existing indications, contraindications, as well as the condition of the thermal layer are taken into account. Facial rejuvenation procedures are classified by type, but are largely characterized by versatility.

Indications for anti-aging procedures

Many women start thinking about their first appointment with a cosmetologist when the first wrinkles, jowls, and skin folds appear. Other signs that indicate the need to visit a specialist are:

• tendency to the early appearance of facial wrinkles;
• pale skin color;
• uneven skin, regardless of rest and rhythm of life;
• persistent dry skin, accompanied by peeling and irritation;
• loose circles under the eyes;
• facial swelling.

Doctors recommend not to wait for the first negative changes to form on the face, but to always maintain the skin tone. Then you can achieve facial rejuvenation even after 60 and avoid serious problems in old age.

Cosmetic procedures for facial rejuvenation

Depending on the effect, there are several types of facial rejuvenation procedures:

• Nutritious. They fill the skin with useful substances that aim to improve its condition.
• Stimulating. They promote the natural restoration of the epidermis, where collagen-elastin reproduction occurs.
• Supporting. Improves the structure of skin connections, delaying the formation of wrinkles and folds.
• Correction. Fill in the amount of missing tissue or perform skin tightening.

Laser fractional rejuvenation

It is a deep treatment of the skin layer by exposing it to high temperature. This procedure involves using a laser to burn the surface cells of the skin, affecting the deeper layers. As a result, the renewal process is activated, in which elastin and collagen are synthesized, which are the "building blocks" of our epidermis. The effect is expressed in visibly tightening facial contours, smoothing wrinkles and lifting the corners of the eyes.

The procedure is performed under the supervision of a cosmetologist, who individually selects the strength, depth and temperature of the beam. After the first session, positive changes can be seen, which are long-term.

Laser fractional rejuvenation helps with:

• deterioration of the condition of the skin, accompanied by a decrease in tone and loss of elasticity;
• pigmentation;
• scars and cicatrices;
• acne and its consequences;
• stretch marks;
• wrinkles;
• enlarged pores;
• drooping eyelids.

The main advantage of laser rejuvenation is the renewal of the skin layer. During one procedure, about 20% of the tissue is removed, at the same time the process of forming a new skin structure begins. Other benefits include:

• Various effects. Laser exposure allows you to overcome several skin problems at the same time. For example, smoothing wrinkles, tightening pores and removing pigmentation.
• multi-purpose. This procedure is performed on all skin types, thicknesses and varying degrees of sensitivity.
• Deliciousness. The ability to work with the laser on areas with a thin layer of skin: décolleté, eyelids, neck.
• Lack of recovery. Applying makeup is allowed the next day after the procedure.
• Lack of invasiveness. Laser rejuvenation is a gentle method of combating age-related skin changes, as light local anesthesia is used, and the duration of the procedure does not exceed 60 minutes, which depends on the area being treated.

However, it is important to consider contraindications:

• epilepsy;
• period of pregnancy and breastfeeding;
• psoriasis;
• atopic dermatitis and other allergic skin manifestations in the acute phase;
• very dry skin surface;
• the presence of wounds and inflammation in the affected area.

Before the start of each procedure, a consultation is carried out, during which an assessment of the patient's skin is carried out, the presence of contraindications, as well as an explanation of the effects and methods available for pain relief. After that:

• the skin is prepared for laser exposure by cleaning it, followed by applying an analgesic cream;
• It is carried out on the surface of the skin with a nozzle, in which there is a laser. Depending on the severity, the skin area may be treated several times;
• products that have a soothing effect are used on the dermis.

To achieve the desired result, a course of several procedures is usually required, between which there should be an interval of six months.

Often, the laser leaves a small swelling and redness in the affected area, and also causes dryness and peeling, which disappears on its own after 2-4 days. To speed up healing, it is recommended to use cosmetics with panthenol on the skin and use sun protection. To moisturize, use a formulation based on hyaluronic acid.

Botulinum therapy

This is an effective facial rejuvenation procedure, the essence of which is the use of injectable preparations based on botulinum toxin type "A". Facial muscle tension causes the appearance of hypertonicity, which leads to the formation of wrinkles, skin folds and asymmetry. Botulinum toxin has a relaxing effect on muscle spasms, resulting in a natural smoothing of the skin layer.

Botulinum therapy is indicated for:

• spasmodic facial muscles;
• deep wrinkles;
• hyperhidrosis, which is indicated by increased sweating on the upper and lower extremities, as well as the armpits.

• forms of chronic diseases that are in the acute stage;
• malignant tumor neoplasm;
• childhood

The rejuvenation process is done lying down and begins by treating the skin of the face with an antiseptic preparation. If skin sensitivity increases, local anesthesia is given. After this, using an ultra-thin syringe needle, botulinum toxin is injected into the dermis to a depth of 2-3 mm. The duration of one session on average takes about half an hour. The next one is carried out after 4-6 months.

After the injection, small bumps called papules appear on the skin, which disappear on their own within 24 hours. It is recommended to spend the first 4 hours after the injection in an upright position. The treated area should not be massaged; for 5 days, avoid visiting the bathhouse, solarium, sauna, sunbathing, and muscle tension.

Bioreinforcement

• folds and deep folds;
• reduce skin tone, loss of elasticity;
• uneven pale skin;
• like bags and blue circles in the under-eye area;

• the compatibility of the formulation used, which eliminates the possibility of rejection by the body;
• comfort and absence of pain during therapy and at the end;

It is important to consider contraindications:

• period of pregnancy and breastfeeding;
• autoimmune pathology in the acute phase;
• blood clotting disorders;
• acute forms of viral and infectious diseases;
• treatments available for certain drug categories.

• double chin removal;
• get rid of ptosis;
• smoothes wrinkles and wrinkles.

Under the influence of the current discharge, muscle contraction occurs, resulting in the active functioning of the circulatory and lymphatic systems, which stimulate metabolic processes in the cells. Cellular structures are enriched with oxygen and water, which leads to accelerated division. On the other hand, cell regeneration is the key to effective rejuvenation, which manifests itself in the freshness and firmness of the skin.

Microcurrent therapy is carried out in several stages:

• Preparation. Requires compliance with the drinking regime throughout the course. On the day of the procedure, it is very important to drink plenty of plain water, which will help cleanse the body of toxins and waste.
• Cleaning. To enhance the rejuvenating effect of microcurrent, you can use enzyme peeling or microdermabrasion. However, it is enough to remove makeup and wash sebum.
• Effect. An electrolyte, which is a conductive component for electrical impulses, is applied to the treated area. Problem areas are treated using special electrodes.

Among the advantages of microcurrent therapy, the following should be noted:

• no recovery period;
• safety and absence of pain;
