Facial rejuvenation procedure

Anti-aging procedures are modern cosmetic methods whose effect is aimed at correcting age-related skin changes. Most often they 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 and the condition of the thermal layer are taken into account. Facial rejuvenation procedures are classified by type, but the vast majority are characterized by versatility.

Indications for anti-aging treatments

Many women start thinking about their first appointment with a beautician when the first wrinkles, cheeks and skin folds appear. Other signs that indicate the need to see a specialist include:

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

Doctors recommend not waiting for the first negative changes on the face, but constantly maintaining the skin tone. Then you can achieve facial rejuvenation even after 60 years and avoid serious problems in old age.

Cosmetic procedures for facial rejuvenation

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

• Nutritious. They fill the skin with useful substances that are designed to improve its condition.
• Stimulating. They promote the natural restoration of the epidermis, where collagen-elastin reproduction takes place.
• Supportive. Improves structural skin connections and slows the formation of wrinkles and fine lines.
• Corrective. Replenish lost tissue volume or perform skin tightening.

Fractional laser rejuvenation

It is a deep treatment of the skin layer by exposing it to high temperatures. The procedure uses a laser to burn the superficial cells of the skin, affecting the deeper layers of the skin. This activates the renewal process in which elastin and collagen, the "building materials" of our epidermis, are synthesized. The effect is manifested in a noticeable tightening of the facial contour, the smoothing of wrinkles and the lifting of the corners of the eyes.

The procedure is carried out under the supervision of a beautician who individually selects the strength, depth and temperature of the jet. After the first session, positive changes can be noticed that last in the long term.

Fractional laser rejuvenation helps with:

• Deterioration of skin condition, accompanied by a decrease in skin tone and loss of elasticity;
• Pigmentation;
• scars and scars;
• Acne and its consequences;
• Stretch marks;
• Fold;
• enlarged pores;
• drooping eyelids.

The main benefit of laser rejuvenation is the renewal of the skin layer. During one procedure, around 20% of the tissue is removed and at the same time the process of forming new skin structures is initiated. Other advantages include:

• Multi-impact. Laser irradiation allows you to overcome several skin problems at once. For example, smooth wrinkles, tighten pores and remove pigment spots.
• Versatility. The procedure is performed on all skin types with different thickness and sensitivity.
• Delicacy. The ability to work with the laser on areas with a thin layer of skin: décolleté, eyelids, neck.
• Lack of rehabilitation. 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, depending on the area treated.

However, it is important to consider contraindications:

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

Before each procedure begins, a consultation is held during which an assessment of the patient's skin, the presence of contraindications and explanations of the effect and the available methods of pain relief are made. Thereafter:

• The skin is prepared for laser irradiation by cleansing and then applying a pain-relieving cream.
• It is carried out over the surface of the skin using a nozzle with a laser inside. Depending on the severity, the skin area can be treated several times;
• Products that have a calming effect are applied to the dermis.

In order to achieve the desired result, several procedures are usually required, with an interval of six months between them.

The laser often leaves a slight swelling and redness in the affected area, as well as dryness and flaking, which disappear on their own after 2-4 days. To speed up healing, it is recommended to apply cosmetics containing panthenol to the skin and use sunscreen. For moisturizing, use formulations 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". The tension in the facial muscles creates hypertonicity, which leads to the formation of wrinkles, skin folds and asymmetries. Botulinum toxinhas a relaxing effect on tense muscles and leads to a natural smoothing of the skin layer.

Botulinum therapy is indicated for:

• spasmodic facial muscles;
• deep wrinkles;
• Hyperhidrosis, which is manifested by increased sweating of the upper and lower extremities and the armpits.

• psychological and neurological disorders;
• chronic forms of diseases that are in the acute stage;
• malignant tumor neoplasms;
• minor age.

The rejuvenation process is carried out in the supine position and begins with treating the skin of the face with antiseptic preparations. If the skin is sensitive, local anesthesia is used. Botulinum toxin is then injected 2–3 mm deep into the dermis using a very thin syringe needle. The duration of a session is on average around half an hour. The next one will be carried out after 4-6 months.

After the injections, small bumps called papules form on the skin and 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 areas should not be massaged; Avoid visiting the bathhouse, solarium, sauna, sunbathing and muscle tension for 5 days.

Bioreinforcement

It is an innovative method of facelift without surgical intervention, the essence of which is to introduce a stabilized hyaluronic acid preparation under the skin layer, which has a biostimulating effect.

The procedure is indicated for minor wrinkles and other negative skin changes. Shows particular effectiveness when:

• deep wrinkles and wrinkles;
• decreased skin tone, loss of elasticity;
• uneven pale complexion;
• bag-like and blue circles in the area under the eyes;
• extra chin, cheeks, ptosis.

Stabilized hyaluronic acid promotes natural tissue regeneration by stimulating collagen-elastin production, thereby strengthening the facial contour.

• Compatibility of the formulations used, which eliminates the possibility of rejection by the body;
• Comfort and freedom from pain during therapy and at the end;
• immediate effect;
• minimal risk of complications.

Hyaluronic acid does not trigger any allergic reactions and is completely compatible with tissue. The drug is administered under the skin according to a special scheme, which leads to the formation of new skin structures.

• Preparation and cleaning of the surface layer of the skin.
• Applying anesthetic gel.
• Injection introduction of a composition with a gel-like structure.
• Even distribution of the drug.

It is important to consider contraindications:

• pregnancy and breastfeeding period;
• autoimmune diseases in the acute phase;
• blood clotting disorders;
• acute form of viral and infectious diseases;
• available treatment for specific drug categories.

To enhance the effect, bioreinforcement is recommended to be carried out in courses throughout the year. The result lasts until the drug is completely dissolved.

It is a rejuvenation procedure under the influence of microcurrent pulses, which leads to tightening of the facial contour and other positive changes:

• elimination of double chin;
• get rid of ptosis;
• Smoothing of wrinkles and fine lines.

Under the influence of electrical discharges, muscle contraction occurs, which leads to active functioning of the circulatory and lymphatic systems, thereby stimulating metabolic processes in the cells. Cell structures are enriched with oxygen and water, which leads to their accelerated division. Cell regeneration, in turn, is the key to effective rejuvenation, which manifests itself in freshness and firmness of the skin.

Microcurrent therapy is carried out in several steps:

• Preparation. Requires compliance with the drinking regime throughout the course. On the day of the procedure, it is particularly important to drink plenty of clear, still water to cleanse the body of toxins and waste products.
• Cleaning. To enhance the rejuvenating effect of microcurrents, you can use enzyme peeling or microdermabrasion. However, it is quite enough to remove makeup and wash off sebum.
• Effects. Electrolytes, which are conductive components for electrical impulses, are applied to the treated area. Problem areas are treated with special electrodes.

The average session time is 40 minutes. The procedure is completely painless; in rare cases, a slight tingling sensation may occur. At the end of therapy, the use of excipients is not necessary.

Among the benefits of microcurrent therapy, the following should be highlighted:

• no recovery period;
• safety and freedom from pain;
• long-term maintenance of the effect;
• almost complete absence of contraindications, which include cancer, epilepsy, skin lesions caused by infectious agents, the presence of pacemakers and medical implants;
• enhancing the effects of other anti-aging techniques;
• accelerated tissue regeneration.

To achieve a lasting result, microcurrent therapy lasting 10-12 sessions is recommended. The first positive changes become noticeable after 3-4 sessions.
