What is the best procedure for facial rejuvenation? Surely you've asked this question more than once. And there are a lot of questions about this topic on 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 definitely help you lose weight. After all, each one has its characteristics, each organism is unique and an individual approach is necessary for each case. Only in this case, an effective and long-term result of anti-aging procedures is visible.
In which cases are facial rejuvenation procedures necessary?
Main indications for facial rejuvenation procedures
It is generally accepted that facial rejuvenation procedures should only be performed in adulthood. But it's not like that! The sooner aging problems are identified, the more effectively they can be treated.
There is a wide range of indications for facial skin rejuvenation procedures:
- sagging, lethargy of the skin
- increased facial muscle tone
- oval hairy face
- face swelling
- active appearance of wrinkles
- drooping corners of eyes and lips
- grayish and opaque complexion
- deepening of nasolabial folds
- the appearance of "fly"
- complex age-related changes
Of course, it is possible to assess the need for certain anti-aging procedures "by eye" in the mirror, but it is better to get a comprehensive assessment of the condition of the skin:
What happens to the skin during rejuvenation
Facial rejuvenation procedures are needed to slow down the aging process, to create conditions for it to proceed as slowly as possible and have a minimal effect on the condition of the skin. During the first procedures (taking into account the fact that they are selected by the cosmetologist based on an individual diagnosis of the facial skin), visible changes begin to occur in the skin:
- excess fluid is removed, due to which edema appears.
- the excess of cells from the outer stratum corneum of the epidermis is removed (since the stratum corneum must not be completely removed, it is normally present), there is a balance between cell synthesis and exfoliation, due to which the skin is renewed
- decreased facial muscle tone
- the face oval is tight
- the complexion improves, the skin is even, radiant
- decreases the depth of wrinkles and folds
- "fly" decrease
- the circulation of water - the main aid in the fight for youth - returns to normal
- bags under the eyes are reduced
- the corners of eyes and lips are raised
- old 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 cosmetology (laser)
- injection cosmetology
- preparation procedures
- home care cosmetics
The procedures have a different effect and the cosmetologist determines the most suitable one for her according to the woman's skin condition.
Laser Facial Rejuvenation
Neodymium laser rejuvenation
Indications
- aging prevention, from 25-30 years old
- fine wrinkles
- preparation for plastic surgery
- opaque and flabby skin (reduced turgor) on the face
- acne - in an integrated approach
- enlarged pores
- redness of the face, rosacea
The laser heats a protein responsible for the skin's youth - collagen, causing the stimulation of fibroblasts, cells responsible for the synthesis of youthful collagen and elastin. As a result, the skin becomes denser, fine wrinkles are reduced and the complexion improves.
A big advantage is availability at any time of year. Neodymium laser can be used in summer (unlike many other laser techniques).
How is the procedure
During the procedure, you feel heat or tingling, a slight burning sensation that can last from several hours to a day or more. Most of the time, after the procedure, nothing is felt, there may be some heat, but not more.
What are the results? How many sessions are needed?
The procedure has the particularity of a prolonged growth effect, for which it is necessary to perform4-6 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 the clinical manifestations, the aging morphotype and the skin response.
Performed on the eve of the event, this procedure improves skin color and shine.
In combination with what is most effective
- Biorevitalization
- Mesotherapy
- RF survey
Three-Level Laser Rejuvenation
Three-level laser rejuvenation is recommended in the following cases
- when the oval of the face lost its clarity
- facial tissues "dragged" down
- superficial and deep wrinkles appeared
- there is a "double chin"
- the upper eyelids began to protrude, forming a fold
- the pores of the face become wider and the surface of the skin becomes looser, flaccid
How is the process of facial skin rejuvenation
- the impact occurs simultaneously along three coordinates
- The smallest fractions of the laser, such as fine hairs, penetrate the tissues of the face. As a result, the skin at these locations shrinks. It's really getting smaller
- the old collagen, which once worked, is removed from the skin, making room for the young collagen fibers
- the correct mechanisms for the ingestion and retention of moisture in the skin are restored
- as a result, after 28 days the skin is renewed and we look rejuvenated and attractive.
Face after laser rejuvenation: what are the results
- the effect of excess skin on the face is eliminated
- the skin becomes denser due to the appearance of new collagen fibers
- the skin is renewed by 98% in just 28 days
This is how facial rejuvenation with a laser takes place. Many women have already enjoyed 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 laser facial skin rejuvenation methods.
This procedure is also called laser biorevitalization. It aims to improve the functioning of skin cells on the face, their hydration.
This is due to the effects of hyaluronic acid. Its molecule has unique properties. It attracts water molecules to its surface and can retain them for a long time.
Imagine: a molecule of hyaluronic acid can contain 300 to 500 molecules of water.
Hyaluronic acid, injected by means of a cold laser, is easily incorporated into the cell membrane and retained by the adhered water molecules. A colloidal hydrogel is formed, which is a natural filling of the intercellular space.
Thus, the environment for fibroblasts to function is restored, microcirculation is improved, cell metabolism is activated, and so on.
Indications
- dry and flabby 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
- opaque skin
essence of the method
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, cocktails of vitamins, hyaluronic acid and other skin nourishing agents are actively used.
results
- smoothing fine wrinkles and preventing the formation of new ones
- restoration of the tone and elasticity of the face, neck and décolleté
- making the skin velvety and moderately hydrated
- elimination of eyelid swelling
- anti-inflammatory effect, reducing the appearance of acne
During the procedure, there is a cumulative effect, providing long-term hydration, skin regeneration, disappearance of wrinkled fine mesh, smoothing of fine wrinkles, uniformity of skin relief and reduced visualization of pores.
How is the procedure
No pain relief is needed 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 low-intensity laser beam nozzle is used, so the preparations are injected into the deep layers of the skin. At the end of the procedure, a care agent is applied.
The length of the procedure and the number of sessions are determined by the area treated - by the doctor during the consultation.
Non-surgical facial rejuvenation
Plasmalifting
Plasmolifting is a method of intradermal injection of the patient's own blood plasma, leading to the activation of regenerative processes in the skin.
Plasmalifting for the face: indications
- photoaging
- hyperpigmentation
- acne and post-acne
- sensitive, "stressful" skin
- alopecia and hair loss
- seborrheic dermatitis
- scars and stretch marks
essence of the method
It consists of the isolation of plasma from human blood by centrifugation and its subsequent introduction into the area to be restored.
The patient's blood is collected in a certified Plasmalifting tube. The autoplasm is separated by centrifugation and intradermal injections of the resulting drug are made in the treatment area.
Facelifting: the professionals
The use of plasmolifting in cosmetology allows for the initiation of the skin's natural rejuvenation processes. Plasma growth factors stimulate fibroblasts to synthesize collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. As a result, the skin's structure is improved, its tone and elasticity are increased, and the relief is evened out.
In combination with what is most effective
- biorevitalization
- fractional photothermolysis
- lasertophoresis
- contour plastic
- chemical peels
- phototherapy
Rejuvenation at the cellular level - plasmolifting PRP
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
- opaque skin
- dry face skin
- 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 - our skin's "containers of youth", rich in biologically active substances (growth factors).
Entering the skin, live platelets transfer metabolism to a juvenile regimen, as a result of which:
- the synthesis of your own hyaluronic acid molecules begins
- the most powerful process of forming a 3D structure of collagen and elastin is launched
- increases local immunity
The total skin rejuvenation supereffect 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 skin rejuvenation with PRP:
- Instant filling of wrinkles and creases on the face
- skin structure formation from healthy young collagen and elastin fibers
- hardening and hardening of the skin
- improving the firmness and elasticity of facial skin
- activation of cell migration and division
- inside skin moisture
- complexion improvement and alignment
- the appearance of a healthy youthful glow of the skin
SMAS survey
A new word in the field of non-surgical cutaneous facial LIFTING.
SMAS-LIFTING - the most progressive way of LIFTING facial skin - has become SAFE and EFFECTIVE.
The main ultrasonic lifting mechanism (HIFU):
- The ultrasound wave passes through the skin, reaching very deep - in the muscle-ligament layer.
- There he concentrates and heats the tissue, contracting the ligamentous apparatus.
- The ligaments become denser and the oval shape of the face is tightened, the gravity of the subcutaneous fat decreases.
- Furthermore, collagen can be stimulated in the process using a surface sensor.
Fractional facial rejuvenation (fractional RF laser survey)
Who is fractional laser rejuvenation suitable for?
- you are over 30 years old
- you don't like wrinkles, folds, sagging
- do you want to tighten and tighten the skin on your face
- you want to look younger in a month
- you are looking for a comfortable technique that doesn't hurt your skin and doesn't require a long rehabilitation
Why laser fractional RF surveying and not just RF surveying?
Fractional RF survey - 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 the skin's firmness and elasticity. They again, as in youth, begin to actively produce collagen. And you will see the result of rejuvenation already AFTER ONE MONTH. Also, this effect will only INCREASE over time and last for up to 1 year.
Due to its high efficiency, it is only necessary to perform 3-4 procedures instead of 6-8 as in the case of a conventional RF survey.
When can the RF fractional survey be done?
This procedure can be done at ANY TIME OF THE YEAR, even in summer, as This technique uses a COLD fractional laser that does not cause pigmentation.
Photorejuvenation for the treatment of blood vessels in the face
The photorejuvenation method is designed not only to remove wrinkles and affect facial skin elasticity, 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 gentle in relation to other people.
Photorejuvenation: how does it work?
Photorejuvenation works in several directions at the same time:
- stimulates the improvement of the skin condition
- reduces rosacea with pigmentation
- has a positive effect on the appearance of the facial skin as a whole.
The procedure doesn't take more than half an hour, but it's quite painful.
The main advantage of this procedure is the quick and safe removal of blood vessels and vascular network. Photorejuvenation can successfully treat diseases such as rosacea and rosacea.
The impact on vessels and spider veins occurs at the level of the dermis. Radiation is absorbed by oxyhemoglobin, a natural pigment found in red blood cells. Light energy is converted into thermal 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. Experts actively use microcurrent lymphatic drainage to eliminate age-related changes, restoring clarity to the oval of the face with an edematous morphotype.
Microcurrent is a physical therapy procedure that affects the skin, lymph nodes, and muscle tissue with a low-strength pulsed current with different frequency characteristics.
Microcurrent therapy differs from other hardware techniques in that microcurrents, passing through aged or altered cells, restore and heal them. Turns out it's a very delicate effect. The current literally transfers an impulse to the cells for quality operation. According to expert research, due to microcurrent therapy, the energy supply in the body's cells increases fivefold.
There is a moderate effect on the lymphatic, circulatory, muscle and skin layers. Metabolic processes are restored, cell activity is normalized. The results of microcurrent are elimination of edema, improvement in skin color, improvement in facial contours, improvement in general facial tone, improvement in tissue regeneration and restoration. It is very important that microcurrents do not cause visible muscle contraction, as their action is very delicate.
Indications
- decreased skin tone
- face swelling
- 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 activates electrodes with special tips, performing movements according to the generally accepted procedure for performing procedures, taking into account the structural characteristics of the muscle and lymphatic systems.
Taking into account the age and initial skin condition, an individual course of procedures of different frequency is selected.
Ideally 8-10 procedures 2-3 times a week.
Biorevitalization
Biorevitalization is an injection of hyaluronic acid. It is aimed at active hydration and general improvement of the skin's condition. "Anti-wrinkle injections" have gained popularity for a reason, because their action smoothes the skin very well, slows down aging. The technique is also used to eliminate post-acne marks.
How does biorevitalization affect age spots?
Injections stop pigmentation from developing. The procedure does not remove the defect itself, but other methods are used to do this. However, it makes the blemishes less visible. The procedure is recommended after prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
Below are answers to some of the most common questions about 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
- skin preparation for sunburn and rehabilitation after active heatstroke
essence of the method
With age, the body stops producing enough of its own hyaluronic acid. Biorevitalization solves this problem. Natural, chemically unaltered 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, which is responsible for skin hydration and nutrition, is normalized.
Biorevitalization: how much is the effect?
Biorevitalization inhibits the aging process, the skin is hydrated. Fine wrinkles disappear and the complexion also improves. This technique rejuvenates the skin from the inside, offers antioxidant protection and the aesthetic effect is visible almost instantly.
How is the procedure
Immediately before biorevitalization, make-up removal and disinfection with skin antiseptic is performed. Then, for 20-30 minutes, application of anesthesia. During the procedure, the smallest portions of the gel are injected with a syringe and then the gel naturally spreads into the surrounding tissues.
Biorevitalization: when will the wheals go away?
As with any injection, slight redness, itching, slight swelling may occur - these signs disappear within a few hours. Bruising and papules may also occur. They disappear in a few days.
In combination with what is most effective
- laser therapy
- RF survey
- shells
- phototherapy
Biorevitalization includes several types, and each one aims to solve different problems:
- Hydroreserve - the introduction into the dermis of hyaluronic acid preparations in 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. The preparation contains hyaluronic acid and sodium succinate - a derivative of succinic acid, which improves cell metabolism, tissue respiration and gas exchange. Free radicals from the aging processes are neutralized.
- Amino Acid. It is based on the principle of amino acid replacement. The joint combination of amino acids in a strictly defined concentration and hyaluronic acid stimulates the maximum rate of production of your own collagen in the dermis.
- PeptideAnother type of cell 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 the metabolic processes of cells, they are signaling molecules that trigger tissue renewal processes
Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is a real treat for those who want to effectively eliminate a series of aesthetic defects: dry skin, pigmentation, fine wrinkles, acne, post-acne, stretch marks, scars, skin dehydration and improve lymphatic drainage.
Patients who undergo supportive procedures on a regular basis notice that the quality of their skin changes dramatically! And even the care products fall on it in a completely different way and 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 medication into several layers of the skin. The main objective is to replace the deficiency of vitamins, amino acids, trace elements. Furthermore, even the deepest 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 accumulation to reduce its volume. Most often it is the neck and "double chin" area, 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
- correction of excess weight and cellulite
- correction of scars and stretch marks
- hair and scalp treatment
- skin pigmentation
- improves complexion
- increasing the elasticity and firmness of the skin
How is the procedure
Before proceeding with the procedure, the skin is cleaned and disinfected. Local anesthesia is then administered.
At the injection site, during or after the procedure, slight redness, swelling, bruising or pale skin may occur. Traces of injections and wheals at the injection site, mild pain when pressing - these are all the norm. It takes 1-3 to 7-10 days to recover after the procedure, no special treatment is needed.
What should not be done before beauty injections?
There are several limitations on any injection.
Within 12 hours before your procedure:
Limit the use of drugs and beverages that raise blood pressure and reduce blood clotting. In other words, coffee, energy drinks, alcohol, sports supplements and non-steroidal analgesics (aspirin, acetaminophen, cetanes) will have to be abandoned. They increase blood flow and bruising after the procedure.
For the same reason, 3 days before the injections, it is best to exclude the intake of fish oil preparations (omega-3 fatty acids).
