Facial rejuvenation procedures

Anti-aging procedures are modern cosmetic methods aimed at correcting age-related skin changes. Mostly they have 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 state of the thermal layer are taken into account. Facial rejuvenation procedures are classified by type, but the vast majority are characterized by diversity.

Indications for anti-aging procedures

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

• tendency to early appearance of facial wrinkles;
• light skin color;
• Uneven complexion, regardless of rest and rhythm of life;
• constant dry skin accompanied by peeling and irritation;
• bag circles under the eyes;
• Facial swelling.

Doctors advise not to wait for the first negative changes to appear on the face, but to constantly maintain 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 several types of facial rejuvenation procedures:

• nutritious. They fill the skin with useful substances aimed at improving its condition.
• stimulant. They contribute to the natural restoration of the epidermis, during which collagen-elastin reproduction takes place.
• Supportive. It improves the structural connections of the skin, slows down the formation of wrinkles and wrinkles.
• corrective. Fill in lost tissue volume or perform skin tightening.

Fractional laser rejuvenation

This is a deep treatment of the skin layer with high temperature exposure. The procedure involves the use of a laser to burn the surface cells of the skin, affecting its deeper layers. As a result, the renewal process is activated, during which elastin and collagen are synthesized, which are the "building material" of our epidermis. The effect is expressed in a noticeable tightening of the facial contour, smoothing of wrinkles and lifting of the corners of the eyes.

The procedure is carried out under the supervision of a cosmetologist, who individually selects the strength, depth and temperature of the beam. After the first session, positive changes are noticeable, which are long-lasting.

Laser fractional rejuvenation helps:

• Deterioration of the skin condition, which is accompanied by a decrease in its tone and loss of elasticity;
• pigmentation;
• Scars and scars;
• Acne and its consequences;
• stretch marks;
• wrinkles;
• enlarged pores;
• Droopy eyelids.

The main advantage of laser rejuvenation is the renewal of the skin layer. During one procedure, approximately 20% of the tissue is removed, while the process of forming new skin structures begins. Other benefits include:

• Multiple exposures. Laser exposure allows you to overcome several skin problems at the same time. For example, smooth wrinkles, tighten pores and remove pigmentation.
• Versatility. The procedure is performed on all types of skin, with different thickness and degree of sensitivity.
• delicacy. The ability to work with a laser on areas with a thin layer of skin: neckline, eyelids, neck.
• Lack of rehabilitation. Applying makeup is allowed the 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 treated area.

However, it is important to consider contraindications:

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

Before each procedure, a consultation is held, during which the patient's skin is evaluated, the presence of contraindications, as well as explanations about the effect of pain relief and available methods. After this:

• The skin is prepared for the laser exposure by cleaning it, followed by the application of pain-relieving cream;
• It is performed on the surface of the skin with a nozzle inside which there is a laser. Depending on the severity, the skin area can be treated several times;
• Products that have a soothing effect are used on the dermis.

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

Often, the laser leaves a slight swelling and redness in the affected area, as well as dryness and peeling, which disappears on its own after 2-4 days. To speed up healing, it is recommended to apply cosmetics with panthenol on the skin and use sunscreen. Use hyaluronic acid-based formulations to moisturize.

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 leads to hypertonicity, which leads to the formation of wrinkles, skin folds and asymmetry. Botulinum toxin has a relaxing effect on spasmodic muscles, which causes skin layernatural smoothness.

Botulinum therapy is indicated for:

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

It is important to consider contraindications:

• skin inflammation;
• mental and neurological disorders;
• chronic forms of the disease, which are in the acute stage;
• malignant cancerous neoplasms;
• young age

The rejuvenation process is carried out in a lying position and begins with the treatment of the facial skin with antiseptic preparations. In case of increased skin sensitivity, local anesthesia is prescribed. After that, using an ultra-thin syringe needle, botulinum toxin is injected into the dermis at a depth of 2-3 mm. One session lasts about half an hour on average. The next one is held after 4-6 months.

After injections, papules appear on the skin, which disappear on their own within 24 hours. It is recommended to spend the first 4 hours after the injections in an upright position. Do not massage treated areas; Avoid baths, solariums, saunas, sunbathing and muscle tension for 5 days.

Bioreinforcement

This is an innovative method of face lifting without surgical intervention, the essence of which is the introduction of a stabilized hyaluronic acid preparation under the skin layer, which has a biostimulating effect.

The procedure is indicated for small wrinkles and other negative skin changes. It is particularly effective when:

• deep folds and wrinkles;
• decrease in skin tone, loss of elasticity;
• uneven pale complexion;
• bag-like and blue circles under the eyes;
• Extra chin, jowls, ptosis.

Stabilized hyaluronic acid promotes the natural regeneration of tissues by stimulating the production of collagen-elastin, which strengthens the contour of the face.

The main advantage of bioreinforcement is its almost completely non-traumatic nature with an automatic lack of rehabilitation. Other benefits of the procedure include:

• compatibility of the used formulations, which excludes the possibility of rejection by the body;
• comfort and absence of pain during and at the end of therapy;
• immediate effect;
• Minimal risk of complications.

Hyaluronic acid does not cause allergic reactions and is completely compatible with tissues. The drug is injected under the skin according to a special scheme, which causes the formation of new skin structures.

There are several stages of the procedure:

• Preparation and cleaning of the surface layer of the skin.
• Use of anesthetic gel.
• Injection of a composition with a gel-like structure.
• Uniform distribution of the drug.
• Formation of biological "frame" from threads.

At the end of the procedure, small marks are visible from the injections, which disappear by themselves after a short time.

It is important to consider contraindications:

• pregnancy and breastfeeding period;
• autoimmune pathologies in the acute phase;
• blood clotting disorders;
• acute form of viral and infectious diseases;
• Available treatment for certain categories of drugs.

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

Microcurrent therapy

This is a rejuvenation procedure under the influence of microcurrent impulses, which leads to a tightening of the facial contour, as well as other positive changes:

• elimination of double chin;
• getting rid of ptosis;
• Smoothes wrinkles and wrinkles.

Under the influence of the current discharge, the muscles contract, resulting in the active functioning of the blood circulation and lymphatic systems, which stimulates metabolic processes in the cells. Cellular structures are enriched with oxygen and water, which causes their accelerated division. On the other hand, cell regeneration is the key to effective rejuvenation, which is manifested by the freshness and density 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 especially important to drink plain water, which will help cleanse the body of toxins and waste.
• 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 fat.
• Influence. Electrolytes, which are conductive components of electrical impulses, are applied to the treated area. Problem areas are treated using special electrodes.

The average duration of the session is 40 minutes. The procedure is completely painless, in rare cases a slight tingling sensation may occur. At the end of the therapy, it is not necessary to use auxiliary means.

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

• There is no recovery period;
• safety and absence of pain;
• long-term maintenance of the effect;
• almost complete absence of contraindications, including cancer, epilepsy, skin lesions caused by infectious pathogens, presence of pacemakers and medical implants;
• enhancing the effect of other anti-aging techniques;
• Accelerated tissue regeneration.

One course of 10-12 sessions of microcurrent therapy is recommended for long-term results. The first positive changes are noticeable after 3-4 sessions.
