What is the best procedure for facial rejuvenation? Surely you have asked this question more than once. And there are a lot of queries on this topic in online search engines.
It is important to understand here thatthere is no universal procedure for facial rejuvenation! Just as there are no magic pills that will definitely help everyone lose weight. After all, each has its own characteristics, each organism is unique, and an individual approach is required for each case. Only in this case, an effective, long-term result of anti-aging procedures is visible.
In what cases are facial rejuvenation procedures needed?
Main indications for facial rejuvenation procedures
It is generally accepted that facial rejuvenation procedures should be done only in adulthood. But this is not the case! The sooner aging problems are identified, the more effectively they can be dealt with.
There is a whole range of indications for facial skin rejuvenation procedures:
- flabbiness, lethargy of the skin
- increased tone of facial muscles
- fuzzy face oval
- puffiness on the face
- active appearance of wrinkles
- drooping corners of eyes and lips
- gray, dull complexion
- deepening of nasolabial folds
- the appearance of "flews"
- complex age-related changes
It is, of course, possible to assess the need for certain anti-aging procedures "by eye" in the mirror, but it is better to obtain a comprehensive assessment of the condition of the skin:
What happens to the skin during rejuvenation
Facial rejuvenation procedures are necessary to slow down the aging process, to create conditions for them to proceed as slowly as possible and to have a minimal effect on the condition of the skin. During the first procedures (taking into account that they are selected by the beautician on the basis of an individual diagnosis of the facial skin), visible changes begin to occur in the skin:
- excess fluid is removed, due to which edema appears
- excess cells of the outer stratum corneum of the epidermis are removed (since the stratum corneum should not be completely removed, it is normally present), a balance arises between the synthesis of cells and their exfoliation, due to which the skin is renewed
- decreased tone of facial muscles
- the oval of the face is tightened
- the complexion improves, the skin becomes even, radiant
- decreases the depth of wrinkles and folds
- "flews" decrease
- the circulation of water - the main assistant in the struggle for youth - returns to normal
- bags under the eyes are reduced
- the corners of the eyes and lips are raised
- age processes slow down
What are the procedures for facial rejuvenation?
There are many cosmetic procedures for facial rejuvenation. An example of procedures that can contribute to facial rejuvenation:
- hardware (laser) cosmetology
- injection cosmetology
- grooming procedures
- cosmetics for home care
The procedures give a different effect and the beautician determines the most suitable for her according to the condition of the woman's skin.
Laser facial rejuvenation
Neodymium laser rejuvenation
Indications
- prevention of aging, starting from 25-30 years
- fine wrinkles
- preparation for plastic surgery
- dull, flabby (reduced turgor) skin on the face
- acne - in an integrated approach
- enlarged pores
- redness of the face, rosacea
The laser heats up a protein that is responsible for youthful skin - collagen, causing stimulation of fibroblasts, cells responsible for the synthesis of young collagen and elastin. As a result, the skin becomes denser, fine wrinkles are reduced, and the complexion improves.
A big plus is availability at any time of the year. The neodymium laser can be used in the summer (unlike many other laser techniques).
How is the procedure
During the procedure, you feel warmth or tingling, a slight burning sensation, which can last from several hours to a maximum of a day. Most often, after the procedure, nothing is felt, there may be a slight warmth, but no more.
What are the results? How many sessions are needed?
The procedure has the peculiarity of a prolonged growing effect, for which it is necessary to do4-6 sessions with an interval of 7-10 days. . . The number of procedures depends on the indications, anatomical and physiological characteristics of a person, the severity of clinical manifestations, the morphotype of aging, and the response of the skin.
Carried out the day before the ceremony, this procedure will improve the color and radiance of the skin.
In combination with what is more effective
- Biorevitalization
- Mesotherapy
- RF lifting
Three-level laser rejuvenation
Three-level laser rejuvenation is recommended in the following cases
- when the oval of the face has lost its clarity
- facial tissues "crawled" down
- superficial and deep wrinkles appeared
- there is a "double chin"
- the upper eyelids began to overhang, forming a fold
- the pores on the face become wider, and the skin surface is looser, flabby
How is the process of facial skin rejuvenation
- the impact goes simultaneously along three coordinates
- The smallest laser fractions penetrate the tissues of the face like thin threads. As a result, the skin in these areas shrinks. It's really getting smaller
- old collagen, which has already worked out, is removed from the skin, making room for young collagen fibers
- the correct mechanisms for the intake and retention of moisture in the skin are restored
- as a result, after 28 days the skin is renewed and we see ourselves rejuvenated and attractive.
Face after laser rejuvenation: what are the results
- the effect of excess skin on the face is eliminated
- the skin is denser due to the appearance of new collagen fibers
- the skin is renewed by 98% in just 28 days
This is how facial rejuvenation occurs with a laser. Many women have already appreciated laser rejuvenation of the skin around the eyes, as well as the entire face in general!
Lasertophoresis
In cosmetology, laser phoresis is also actively used. This is one of the methods of laser facial skin rejuvenation.
This procedure is also called laser biorevitalization. It is aimed at improving the functioning of the cells of the skin of the face, its hydration.
This is due to the effects of hyaluronic acid. Its molecule has unique properties. It attracts water molecules to its surface and can hold them for a long time.
Just imagine: one molecule of hyaluronic acid can hold from 300 to 500 water molecules.
Hyaluronic acid, injected by means of a cold laser, is easily incorporated into the cell membrane and is retained in it due to the attached water molecules. A colloidal hydrogel is formed, which is a natural filler of the intercellular space.
Thus, the environment for the functioning of fibroblasts is restored, microcirculation is improved, cell metabolism is activated, etc.
Indications
- dry and sagging skin
- age-related changes in the skin of the face, neck, décolleté and hands
- dark circles under the eyes
- skin rehabilitation after sunburn, chemical peeling procedures, laser skin resurfacing
- treating mild acne
- thin and dry skin
- dull complexion
Method essence
Due to laser radiation, cell membranes are excited, their permeability increases. Thus, the movement of biologically active substances into the tissue is activated, which are used for prophylactic purposes.
Therefore, for laser phoresis, vitamin cocktails, hyaluronic acid and other nourishing agents for the skin are actively used.
results
- smoothing fine wrinkles and preventing the formation of new ones
- restoration of tone and elasticity of the face, neck and décolleté
- making the skin velvety and moderately hydrated
- elimination of puffiness of the eyelids
- anti-inflammatory effect, reducing the appearance of acne
During the course of the procedure, a cumulative effect occurs, providing long-term hydration, skin regeneration, fine wrinkled mesh disappears, fine wrinkles are smoothed, the skin relief becomes even, and the visualization of pores decreases.
How is the procedure
No pain relief is required for this procedure as it is painless. The specialist cleans the skin, applies a special gel with hyaluronic acid and active ingredients. Then there is an effect on the dermis - a nozzle with low-intensity laser radiation is used, thus the preparations are injected into the deep layers of the skin. At the end of the procedure, a caring agent is applied.
The duration of the procedure and the number of sessions is determined by the treated area - by the doctor during the consultation.
Non-surgical face rejuvenation
Plasmolifting
Plasmolifting is an injection method of intradermal injection of the patient's own blood plasma, leading to the activation of regenerative processes in the skin.
Plasmolifting for the face: indications
- photoaging
- hyperpigmentation
- acne and post-acne
- sensitive, "stressful" skin
- alopecia and hair loss
- seborrheic dermatitis
- scars and stretch marks
Method essence
It consists in the isolation of plasma from human blood by centrifugation and its subsequent introduction into the area requiring restoration.
The patient's blood is taken into a certified Plasmolifting tube. Autoplasm is separated by centrifugation, and intradermal injections of the resulting drug are made into the treatment area.
Plasmolifting for the face: the pros
The use of plasmolifting in cosmetology allows you to start the processes of natural skin rejuvenation. Plasma growth factors stimulate fibroblasts to synthesize collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. As a result, the structure of the skin is improved, its tone and elasticity are increased, and the relief is leveled.
In combination with what is more effective
- biorevitalization
- fractional photothermolysis
- lasertophoresis
- contour plastic
- chemical peels
- phototherapy
Rejuvenation at the cellular level - PRP plasmolifting
PRP therapy is a new technique for cellular rejuvenation of the face.
Indications for a course of PRP therapy procedures
- decreased skin elasticity and firmness
- superficial and deep wrinkles
- dull complexion
- dry skin of the face
- acne, acne, scars
- pigmentation
- skin restoration after chemical peeling and laser procedures
Rejuvenation technology
The restoration of aging skin is due to its own living platelets - "containers of youth" of our skin, rich in biologically active substances (growth factors).
Getting into the skin, live platelets transfer the metabolism to a youthful regime, as a result of which:
- the synthesis of its own molecules of hyaluronic acid begins
- the most powerful process of forming a 3D framework from collagen and elastin is launched
- local immunity increases
The super effect of total skin rejuvenation is achieved through the combination of pure hyaluronic acid and its own enriched plasma.
PRP-therapy - the Swiss method of rejuvenation at the cellular level
Visible and hidden results of PRP skin rejuvenation:
- instant filling of wrinkles and folds on the face
- formation of the skin framework from young healthy collagen and elastin fibers
- tightening and tightening of the skin
- improving the firmness and elasticity of the skin of the face
- activation of cell migration and division
- skin moisture from the inside
- improvement and alignment of complexion
- the appearance of a healthy youthful glow of the skin
SMAS lifting
A new word in the field of non-surgical face skin LIFTING.
SMAS-LIFTING - the most progressive way of LIFTING the skin of the face - has become SAFE and EFFECTIVE.
The main mechanism of ultrasonic smas-lifting (HIFU):
- The ultrasound wave passes through the skin, getting very deep - on the muscular-ligamentous layer.
- There it focuses and heats up the tissue, thereby contracting the ligamentous apparatus.
- The ligaments become denser and the oval of the face is tightened, the severity of subcutaneous fat decreases.
- Additionally, collagen can be stimulated in the process using a surface sensor.
Fractional Facial Rejuvenation (Laser Fractional RF Lifting)
Who is fractional laser rejuvenation suitable for?
- you are over 30 years old
- you don't like wrinkles, folds, flabbiness
- you want to tighten and tighten the skin of your face
- you want to look younger in a month
- you are looking for a comfortable technique that does not injure the skin and does not require long rehabilitation
Why Laser Fractional RF Lifting and Not Just RF Lifting?
Fractional RF-lifting - the result on the face
After the procedure, the skin gradually restores the normal functioning of fibroblasts - skin cells that synthesize collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid and other important components responsible for skin firmness and elasticity. They again, as in their youth, begin to actively produce collagen. And you will see the result of rejuvenation already AFTER A MONTH. Further, this effect will only INCREASE over time and will last up to 1 year.
Due to its high efficiency, it is necessary to undergo only 3-4 procedures instead of 6-8, as in the case of a conventional RF-lifting.
When can fractional RF-lifting be done?
This procedure can be done at ANY TIME OF THE YEAR, even in summer, becauseThis technique uses a COLD fractional laser that does not cause pigmentation.
Photorejuvenation for the treatment of blood vessels on the face
The method of photorejuvenation is designed not only to remove wrinkles and affect the elasticity of the skin of the face, but also to treat vascular changes and pigmentation. The procedure is based on the effect of light energy (IPL) on the skin and is considered to be gentle in relation to others.
Photorejuvenation: how does it work?
Photorejuvenation works in several directions at once:
- stimulates the improvement of skin condition
- reduces rosacea with pigmentation
- has a positive effect on the appearance of the facial skin as a whole
The procedure takes no more than half an hour, but it is quite painful.
The main advantage of this procedure is the fast and safe removal of blood vessels and vascular network. Photorejuvenation can successfully treat diseases such as rosacea and rosacea.
The impact on the vessels and spider veins occurs at the level of the dermis. Radiation is absorbed by oxyhemoglobin, a natural pigment found in red blood cells. The light energy is converted into heat energy, the walls of the vessel are "sealed", and it ceases to function.
Microcurrent therapy for facial rejuvenation
For many years, microcurrents in cosmetology have not lost their popularity. Specialists actively use microcurrent lymphatic drainage to eliminate age-related changes, return the clarity to the oval of the face with an edematous morphotype.
Microcurrent therapy is a physiotherapeutic procedure that affects the skin, lymph nodes and muscle tissue with a pulsed current of low strength with different frequency characteristics.
Microcurrent therapy differs from other hardware techniques in that microcurrents, passing through aged or changed cells, restore and heal them. It turns out to be a very delicate effect. The current literally transfers an impulse to cells for quality functioning. According to research by specialists, due to microcurrent therapy, the energy supply in the cells of the body increases fivefold.
There is a mild effect on the lymphatic, circulatory, muscular systems, layers of the skin. Metabolic processes are restored, cell activity is normalized. The results of microcurrent therapy are elimination of edema, improvement of skin color, improvement of the contours of the oval of the face, improvement of the general tone of the face, enhanced regeneration and restoration of tissues. It is very important that microcurrents do not cause visible muscle contraction, since their action is very delicate.
Indications
- decreased skin tone
- swelling of the face
- fine wrinkles
- preparatory care before injection techniques, laser rejuvenation, plastic surgery
- postoperative rehabilitation
How is microcurrent therapy performed?
A gel (or conductive cream) is applied to the face and neck. The cosmetologist drives electrodes with special tips, performing movements according to the generally accepted procedure for carrying out procedures, taking into account the structural features of the muscular and lymphatic systems.
Taking into account the age and initial condition of the skin, an individual course of procedures of different frequency is selected.
Optimally 8-10 procedures 2-3 times a week.
Biorevitalization
Biorevitalization is an injection of hyaluronic acid. It is aimed at active hydration and overall improvement of the skin condition. "Anti-wrinkle injections" have earned popularity for a reason, because their action very well smoothes the skin, slows down aging. The technique is also used to eliminate post-acne marks.
How does biorevitalization affect age spots?
The injections stop the development of pigmentation. The procedure does not remove the defect itself, but other methods are used for this. However, it makes the stains less visible. The procedure is recommended after prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
Below are the answers to some of the most common questions regarding the technique, including:
- how many procedures are needed
- when the effect becomes visible
- what are the indications for the procedure
- what types does the technique include
Indications
- dry and dehydrated skin
- fine wrinkles
- reduced turgor and skin elasticity
- unhealthy skin color
- before and after chemical peels
- before and after laser resurfacing
- before and after plastic surgery
- preparation of the skin for sunburn and rehabilitation after active insolation
Method essence
With age, the body stops producing enough of its own hyaluronic acid. Biorevitalization solves this problem. Natural, not chemically altered hyaluronic acid is injected into the skin. The impact occurs at the cellular level, there is an active regeneration of elastin, collagen, the composition of the intercellular substance is normalized, which is responsible for skin hydration and nutrition.
Biorevitalization: how much is the effect?
Biorevitalization inhibits the aging process, the skin becomes hydrated. Fine wrinkles disappear, and the complexion also improves. This technique rejuvenates the skin from the inside, provides antioxidant protection, and the aesthetic effect is visible almost instantly.
How is the procedure
Immediately before biorevitalization, make-up removal and disinfection with a skin antiseptic are carried out. Then, for 20-30 minutes, application anesthesia. During the procedure, the smallest portions of the gel are injected with a syringe, and then the gel naturally spreads in the surrounding tissues.
Biorevitalization: when will papules go away?
As with any injection, there may be slight redness, itching, slight swelling - these signs disappear within a couple of hours. Bruises and papules may also occur. They go away within a few days.
In combination with what is more effective
- laser therapy
- RF lifting
- peels
- phototherapy
Biorevitalization includes several types, and each is aimed at solving different problems:
- Hydroreserve - the introduction into the dermis of hyaluronic acid preparations in a gel form. Hydroreserve recovery session - salvation for dry, dehydrated, aging skin, especially with the presence of wrinkles, crow's feet, folds in the lips, nose, etc. covers. The preparation contains hyaluronic acid and sodium succinate - a derivative of succinic acid, which improves metabolism in cells, tissue respiration and gas exchange. Free radicals from aging processes are neutralized.
- Amino acid. It is based on the principle of amino acid replenishment. The joint combination of amino acids in a strictly defined concentration and hyaluronic acid stimulates the maximum rate of production of its own collagen in the dermis.
- Peptide. Another type of cellular rejuvenation technique. Peptides are compounds of natural and synthetic origin, which are amino acids held together by a peptide bond. They have a positive effect on metabolic processes in cells, they are signaling molecules that trigger renewal processes in tissue
Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is a real find for those who want to effectively eliminate a number of aesthetic defects: dry skin, pigmentation, fine wrinkles, acne, post-acne, stretch marks, scars, skin dehydration, and improve lymphatic drainage.
Patients who regularly undergo supportive procedures note that the quality of the skin changes dramatically! And even the care products fall on her in a completely different way, and they last much longer.
How is mesotherapy done? How does mesotherapy work?
The essence of the method:
This technique is based on the technique of injecting a small amount of drugs into various layers of the skin. The main goal is to replenish the deficiency of vitamins, amino acids, microelements. In addition, even deep layers of the skin are moistened, fat is burned, blood circulation and regeneration are improved.
Mesodissolution and mesoperfusion is one of the types of procedure. The specialist injects special mesotherapy cocktails into the area of fat accumulations to reduce their volume. Most often it is the area of the neck and "double chin", the area of the elbows, knees, hip joints, the anterior abdominal wall and the lateral surfaces of the abdomen. The needle is inserted to a depth of 6 to 13 mm.
Indications
- rosacea
- acne
- smoothing fine wrinkles
- reduction of double chin and dark circles under the eyes
- correction of excess weight and cellulite
