Hardware cosmetology allows you to solve many cosmetic problems without surgery. Physiotherapy is the ancestor of this new stage in personal care.
Advantages of hardware cosmetology
Aesthetic medicine, with the use of various devices, borrows from physiotherapy the best methods and techniques for the restoration and treatment of living tissues. The use of a special technique allows a positive effect on the deep layers of the dermis, subcutaneous adipose tissue and muscles. At the same time, the surface of the skin and blood vessels remain intact, which ensures good healing after the procedure.
Hardware cosmetology is an alternative for those for whom surgery is contraindicated. In addition, the use of technology is cheaper. The beautician has a wide variety of methods that can replace the surgeon's scalpel:
- sound waves;
- laser beam;
- electricity;
- low and high temperatures;
- vacuum.
The use of technical innovations in cosmetology allows us to solve various aesthetic problems in the shortest possible time. With the help of devices you can improve the quality of the skin, tighten the figure, diagnose and solve scalp problems.
Watch the video in which a professional cosmetologist will tell you in detail what problems hardware cosmetology solves:
But despite all the advantages of hardware cosmetology, it has a number of contraindications for use:
- Violation of skin integrity.
- Malignant neoplasms.
- Chronic pathologies of the endocrine and cardiovascular systems.
- Severe diseases of the body.
- Infectious diseases.
- Pregnancy and lactation.
- Epilepsy.
After the cosmetic procedure, puffiness may appear, which will pass over time. The rehabilitation process, although longer than after surgery, can still take several days to several weeks. After the aesthetic procedure you should not use cosmetics for some time, less often in the sun, not to visit the sauna and pool, to give up bad habits.
Hardware procedures for the body
Cosmetic procedures using devices most actively affect the skin, hair, muscles and subcutaneous fat. Aesthetic medicine with the help of equipment allows procedures for the whole body. Using a wide range of techniques, you can:
- rejuvenate and tighten the skin;
- remove unwanted hair;
- removal of benign neoplasms;
- removal of permanent makeup and tattoos;
- reduction of sweating;
- remove stretch marks and cellulite;
- removal of scars, age spots and scars;
- remove acne, blackheads, acne, rosacea;
- remove the vascular network;
- weight loss;
- treats hair and scalp.
For each patient the necessary procedure is chosen individually, based on the state of health. Vacuum roller massage is used to combat photoaging of the skin. Its principle of action is a combination of physiotherapy and anti-aging cosmetics. Cosmetics alone cannot penetrate deep into the dermis and are therefore ineffective. And in combination with mechanical action, the anti-aging components penetrate into the deep layers of the dermis, thus lifting the body.
With the help of a laser you can rejuvenate the skin, remove acne, do hair removal, remove age spots, remove blood vessels, even out scars. Photoepilation is also effective in combating excess body hair.
Cryolifting improves the elasticity and tone of the skin. A special massage is performed with a freezing nozzle, which creates a temperature of -20 ° C. Under the influence of the cold, the rejuvenating cocktail penetrates better into the skin. With the help of computer diagnostics it is possible to assess the condition of the hair and scalp and to prescribe treatment in time.
Acoustic waves are able to penetrate the subcutaneous adipose tissue and destroy it; therefore, acoustic devices are used to fight cellulite. Sound waves with different ranges are also used for rejuvenation. Ultrasound allows you to introduce therapeutic concentrates into the deep layers of the dermis to establish metabolic processes in the tissues.
Currents of varying frequency and strength are widely used in aesthetic medicine. Microcurrent therapy uses low-power alternating current, which makes it possible to keep the skin and muscles in good shape and serves as a good prevention of aging.
Myostimulation acts on the skin and muscles with electrical impulses. Allows you to replace the gym and pump up the muscles.
Electrophoresis uses high frequency currents to ensure the penetration of drug compounds into the dermis. With the help of a special electric current you can also remove papillomas and other benign neoplasms, reduce sweating.
Technical innovations in facial skin care
Hardware facial cosmetics are suitable for all ages and different skin types. You just have to choose the right type of procedure. Young skin is prone to increased sebum production, clogged pores and acne. Mature skin needs rejuvenation, lifting the contour of the face, removing facial wrinkles. There are also a number of skin conditions that automated methods can help you deal with quickly.
Hardware facial cleansing procedures are used to clean oily and problem skin. Ultrasound waves help to improve the function of the sebaceous glands and tighten the pores. Vacuum cleaning quickly removes pimples, blackheads and other impurities from the pores. Mechanical peeling of the skin with special brush attachments removes dead skin cells that clog pores and cause inflammation.
Galvanic therapy combines the use of low currents with high frequency and active substances, is used to treat seborrhea and melasma. Darsonval's device, which emits weak electrical currents, is used to treat lichen planus, acne and psoriasis.
Laser hair removal and photo hair removal are used to remove unwanted facial hair. These procedures are painless, but to obtain the desired result they require repetition.
Cryotherapy uses a special device with liquid nitrogen, which allows you to quickly and painlessly remove warts and papillomas. Cryotherapy also improves circulation and is used to treat acne.
Hardware cosmetology for facial rejuvenation allows you to eliminate various age-related changes. Photorejuvenation is used to remove age spots. It is produced by the same device as for photoepilation, but with different attachment. Photorejuvenation improves skin elasticity, smoothes small wrinkles, removes dryness of the epidermis. The procedure can be performed on young skin as a prevention of age-related changes. Light therapy cannot remove deep wrinkles.
Hardware facial rejuvenation is often performed with devices that emit low current. By acting on the skin with weak electrical impulses, the oval of the face can be tightened.
Myostimulation allows you to fight age-related skin prolapse under the force of gravity.
Lymphatic drainage, produced by a weak current, allows for the establishment of metabolic processes in the tissues, removal of puffiness and smoothing of wrinkles.
Galvanic therapy provides better penetration of medicinal compounds into the dermis and serves to prevent wrinkles.
Hardware facelift
To remove deep wrinkles and to combat tissue prolapse, a device is lifted. It is done in different ways:
- Ultrasound.
- Radio waves.
- Laser.
Ultrasound facelift affects problem areas with a high frequency sound wave. Before starting the procedure, a vitamin composition is applied to the face. Ultrasound improves the absorption of biologically active substances, accelerates lymph flow and blood circulation in tissues. Metabolic processes are activated, collagen fibers are produced. Ultrasonic lifting is suitable for combating expression lines. Used to lift the forehead, upper and lower eyelids and corners of the mouth. To consolidate the result, it is recommended to repeat the procedure several times.
RF lifting is a very common anti-aging procedure. The special device emits powerful RF pulses with high power. Radio waves penetrate deep into the dermis, affecting the superficial and inner layers of the skin, subcutaneous fat.
Facial lifting with radio waves improves blood circulation in the tissues, thus increasing the production of collagen, which is responsible for the elasticity of the dermis. Improves the appearance and quality of the epidermis. Metabolic processes in tissues improve, cells renew faster. Thanks to this, the facial skin is regenerated and tightened. RF-lifting allows you to fight age-related tissue prolapse, to mimic wrinkles.
Radiolifting has an immediate and fun effect. There is an immediate visible effect due to swelling of the intercellular space. A delayed effect occurs after 27 days when fibroblasts produce new collagen fibers. To obtain the desired result, the hardware must be lifted several times. The duration of treatment and the number of sessions depends on the condition of the skin.
RF rejuvenation procedures are ineffective for patients over 55 years of age when there are significant soft tissue folds. After lifting with radio waves, the rehabilitation period is not required. A side effect is mild dryness of the epidermis. The depth of propagation of radio waves is poorly controlled and can lead to overheating and fusion of connective tissues.
Laser anti-wrinkle fight
Laser facelift is one of the most effective methods of rejuvenation. The principle of action is aimed at activating the protective functions of the body. The computer-controlled beam penetrates the skin to a strictly defined depth, heats it and creates many microscopic cracks. After the laser treatment of the problem areas, recovery processes begin in them, activating the metabolism in the tissues. It produces collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.
Thermolifting has 2 phases of action: immediate and long-term. With an immediate visible effect of rejuvenation occurs immediately due to swelling of the tissues. The long-term effect occurs 6 months after the procedure due to the synthesis of new collagen. Laser lifting rejuvenates and tightens the face, restores skin elasticity.
Thermal lifting is used for:
- facial contour correction;
- removal of deep wrinkles of expression;
- elimination of nasolabial folds;
- lifting the upper eyelid.
Unlike radio waves, the depth of penetration of light waves is well controlled by the device, which minimizes side effects. Before starting the laser treatment procedure, a special gel is applied to the face, which improves the permeability of the beam. After thermolifting, swelling of the face may occur, which will not disappear until the tissues are completely healed.
Laser facelifting hardware does not require repetition. The result appears a few weeks after the procedure. While the tissues are completely healed, it is necessary to minimize the influence of negative factors that can damage the skin. The effect of thermal rejuvenation lasts up to 3 years.
