Only 20-30 years ago, the only reliable way to deal with age-related changes was a surgical face plastic. Then came the time of fillers and botox. All these techniques, despite some advantages, have disadvantages. Fortunately, new ways to prolong youth are constantly being discovered. The skin can be firm, fresh and healthy even without injections. This has been successfully proven by hardware cosmetology for facial rejuvenation. Reviews of numerous patients confirm this fact.
Hardware cosmetology
Hardware techniques have become a new step in the development of cosmetology. They allow you to quickly and painlessly eliminate many defects in appearance and significantly rejuvenate the skin. All procedures are performed using special devices. And the desired result is achieved through exposure to ultrasound, cold, vibration, vacuum or electric waves.
Hardware procedures become more and more popular every year. Patients who have tried these unique techniques share their impressions on the Web and leave positive reviews. Hardware cosmetology for facial rejuvenation is able to cope with pigmentation, wrinkles, enlarged pores and acne marks. In addition, she is able to tighten the skin, tighten the oval, increase collagen production and correct flews. We can say that the indication for the procedure is the patient's desire to maintain youth, as well as improve the condition of the skin.
Hardware rejuvenation methods can be divided into two types:
- Ablative. The integrity of the skin is compromised during the procedure.
- Non-ablative. The integrity of the skin is not compromised.
A dermatologist should choose the most appropriate method of hardware rejuvenation. The result largely depends on the qualifications of the specialist, as well as on the quality of the equipment.
Choose a clinic or salon carefully. It is recommended to focus on reviews and recommendations of friends who have seen a positive result from the use of hardware cosmetology. The equipment must have all the necessary licenses and certificates.
The following devices are used for procedures in clinics and salons:
- Phonophoresis.
- Microdermabrasion device.
- RF-lifting.
- Ultrasonic scrubber.
- Derma-Pen.
- Galvanotherapy apparatus.
- Darsonval.
- Microcurrent therapy device.
- Meso injectors.
Often, salons use special cosmetic combines. Just one such device can perform about 20 different procedures.
Patient age
The term "hardware rejuvenation" does not mean that the procedures solve the problems of exclusively mature skin. It all depends on the condition of the epidermis. Even adolescents can eliminate pigmentation, cleanse and tighten pores with the help of cosmetic devices. And the first anti-aging procedures, if indicated, should be carried out at the age of 25. They are mainly aimed at moisturizing and restoring the skin.
After 35 years, wilting processes begin to flow faster. At this age, the skin is called mature. Now more aggressive methods of hardware cosmetology are needed for facial rejuvenation. Reviews of cosmetologists indicate that RF-lifting, fractional laser, and microcurrent therapy show the best results.
Fractional rejuvenation
Fractional laser can slow down skin aging. During the procedure, it acts on the skin in a dosed manner. Thanks to a special attachment, one laser beam is divided into many small ones. This provides a fractional (as if through a sieve) effect on the epidermis.
Laser beams leave micro-damage on the skin. This stimulates the cells of the epidermis to produce collagen and elastin. It is these two materials that provide skin turgor.
Fractional laser provides excellent lifting. This is confirmed by numerous reviews. Laser facial rejuvenation procedure eliminates atonic flabbiness, sagging oval, wrinkles, vascular network, stretch marks and scars. In addition, it tightens pores and removes pigmentation.
Radio wave oval correction
In recent years, a procedure called RF-face lifting is gaining popularity. What it is is interesting for many women who are looking for effective ways to combat aging. RF lifting is a method of radio frequency skin tightening and rejuvenation. The method appeared in cosmetology about 15 years ago.
As a result of exposure to radio waves, the deep layers of the epidermis are heated to a temperature of 43 degrees. Under the influence of heat, the tissues shrink and the fibers contract. This improves skin tone and provides a lifting effect.
The increased temperature and electric field stimulate cells to produce more elastin and collagen. Thanks to the new fibers, a framework is formed, which is characteristic of a young dermis.
Radio wave lifting provides an instant effect of lifting the face and neck, eliminates wrinkles and sagging, restores elasticity. The result obtained is maintained for three years. In addition, the formation of new wrinkles is significantly slowed down.
Ultrasonic lifting
Ultrasound works on the same principle as radio waves in a procedure such as RF-facelift. What it is is described above. The main difference is the depth of impact. Ultrasound is able to penetrate where radio waves do not reach. It affects the deepest layers of the skin.
It is impossible to say for sure which method is more effective. Ultrasonic lifting is suitable for some patients. Others' skin responds better to radio waves. Therefore, the decision on the method of rejuvenation should be made by the doctor.
Ultrasonic stimulation heats the inner layers of the skin. Thanks to this, the metabolism in tissues is accelerated, toxins are removed, and collagen is produced. And also blood microcirculation increases.
Microcurrent therapy
The benefits of a weak impulse current on the body have been known for a long time. This method is successfully used by physiotherapists to relieve pain in urolithiasis, cholecystitis and other pathologies. Modern cosmetologists also use microcurrent effects to improve skin condition. The popularity of this method is constantly growing.
Microcurrent facial therapy is recommended for lightly modeling the oval and maintaining muscle tone. It is completely painless. The patient may feel a slight tingling sensation while the beautician runs a special nozzle along the massage lines of the face.
Electrical impulses enhance cell regeneration, synthesis of collagen and hyaluronic acid proteins. They remove metabolic products and toxins, improve blood circulation. They also tone up the skin.
The face after the procedure is visibly younger. The result lasts for six months. Much depends on the initial condition and characteristics of the patient's skin.
Non-injection mesotherapy
You can rejuvenate your skin without injections. Doctors have found an opportunity to deliver nutrients and moisturizers into the deep layers of the dermis in a non-invasive way. This procedure is called non-injection mesotherapy. This is another effective hardware technique for facial rejuvenation.
The procedure addresses the following problems:
- Loose and dry skin.
- Hyperpigmentation.
- Wrinkles.
- Earthy complexion.
- Loss of elasticity.
- Couperose.
- Puffiness.
- Enlarged pores.
In order to deliver the substances of the rejuvenating cocktail deep into the skin, it is necessary to increase the permeability of the epidermal cells. This can be done using weak electrical pulses or an infrared laser. The result is noticeable after the first procedure. It lasts for eight to ten months.
Cryolifting
Dosed tissue cooling allows you to solve many problems that appear due to aging processes of the skin. This effective method has been adopted by professionals in aesthetic medicine. Hardware cryotherapy of the face allows you to eliminate edema, wrinkles, age spots and scars. In addition, the oval is restored and the skin color improves.
Liquid nitrogen is used for the procedure. Its temperature reaches minus 195 degrees. The substance for face cryomassage is supplied through a special tube-reservoir with various attachments. The duration of the procedure does not exceed 10 minutes.
Photorejuvenation
High intensity pulsed light for facial rejuvenation is relatively new. It was originally used for photoepilation. Over time, cosmetologists noticed that in places exposed to pulsed light, there is an improvement in the condition of the skin: pigment spots disappear, spider veins become less noticeable. In addition, wrinkles are smoothed out. Immediately after that, a technique for facial rejuvenation was developed.
Phototherapy provides dosed warming of the dermis. She acts on her papillary layer. This increases the intensity of such biochemical processes in the skin as neocollagenogenesis.
Phototherapy is one of the most effective hardware procedures for facial rejuvenation. After just a few sessions, the deepest wrinkles are smoothed out, an oval is outlined, the flews are tightened. The course consists of four to eight procedures. The result after photorejuvenation lasts for six months.
Ultrasonic face liposuction
Due to excess weight, flews and double chins can appear even in young girls. In addition, nasolabial creases become more noticeable. All this deforms the lower part of the face. It also visually adds a few extra years.
The removal of fat deposits allows the face to return to its original features. This can be done using ultrasonic liposuction. It destroys only fat cells, and does not affect other tissues.
During the procedure, the doctor makes several thin punctures. No scars or scars remain. Within five days, the edema completely subsides.
Ultrasonic liposuction is one of the best hardware procedures for facial rejuvenation, as it allows you to solve the problem of sagging cheeks and a fuzzy oval, as well as a double chin. In addition, the procedure stimulates the formation of collagen fibers responsible for skin elasticity.
Hardware cosmetology at home
A modern woman is able to take care of her skin on her own and prevent it from fading. Home hardware cosmetology for the face helps her in this. Many procedures can be performed without the help of a dermatologist. All that is needed for quality care is to choose the right cosmetic device.
For home use you can purchase:
- Microcurrent stimulation devices.
- Vacuum pore cleanser.
- An ultrasonic device that can deal with wrinkles.
- A radio frequency wave device that improves the condition of the oval.
- A device with laser action.
- Apparatus for light, ozone and ion therapy.
Using home cosmetic devices does not require any special skills. Everything you need to know is described in detail in the instructions. We must not forget about contraindications.
Contraindications for hardware cosmetology
The main thing that aesthetic medicine cares about is safety. Patients who choose hardware cosmetology may not be afraid of anesthesia and a long period of rehabilitation. Such procedures minimize the risk of developing adverse reactions and medical errors. This is confirmed by the reviews.
Hardware cosmetology for facial rejuvenation should not be used only in some cases. Contraindications include:
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding.
