Modern cosmetology offers a wide range of procedures that promote the rejuvenation of tissues and the body as a whole. Women successfully use many of these procedures at home. These are all types of superficial peelings, masks, creams, as well as exposure to contrasting temperatures (steam baths, ice massages, contrasting washes). In a beauty salon, all these procedures are performed by professional cosmetologists using modern and effective products. Of the procedures that cannot be used at home, injections (for example, botulinum toxin), mesotherapy and gold thread implantation are very popular.
Botulinum toxin
Botulinum toxin is a drug derived from paralyzing substances and causes temporary atrophy of terminal nerve endings. This allows you to get rid of small wrinkles under the eyes, on the temples and in the upper lip area. The drug, injected into certain areas, manages to smooth wrinkles on the face, especially on the forehead and around the eyes.
One or two weeks after the injection, the motor activity of the muscles weakens. The injections must be repeated every three or four months. It is recommended to contact a cosmetologist again after the patient notices a resumption of muscle activity. For a long-lasting effect, three sessions a year are required.
mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is a method that involves introducing tonic and biologically active substances into the skin using a special syringe. They improve skin nutrition, restore collagen fibers and accelerate regenerative processes. For facial skin care, an extract of embryonic tissue is recommended. It is this extract that restores the regenerating functions of the skin. Extracts of various plants are useful for the body, for example, artichoke, grapefruit, ginkgo, which help eliminate cellulite. To achieve a positive result, a course of 6 to 8 sessions is carried out for 1 to 1. 5 months.
chemical peel
You can also improve the appearance of your skin bychemical peel. With the help of certain preparations, usually vegetable (fruit) acids, the top layer of the skin is removed - dry, dead cells with altered pigmentation. In addition to stimulating the appearance of a new layer of skin, fruit acids are good antioxidants that protect the skin from damage from ultraviolet rays. Chemical peeling is divided into:surface,medianANDdeep- this division is mainly due to the use of various acids. Superficial and medium peels are performed on an outpatient basis and require virtually no preparation or rehabilitation. Superficial peeling can be done once every two weeks, medium peeling - with a break of several months. It is not recommended to perform a deep peel more than once a year and only in a hospital. In the first ten days after the procedure, the skin swells and, as a rule, becomes covered with a scab. However, after the rehabilitation period, the patient eliminates even the deepest wrinkles and the effect on the entire face is quite comparable to traditional surgical lifting.
Photorejuvenation
Another effective and at the same time little traumatic procedure isphotorejuvenation. During it, the superficial layer of the skin does not break. The light source simply heats the desired area of skin to 50°C. The impact occurs at a strictly defined depth; This is achieved using light with different wavelengths. Using this technique, you can eliminate age spots, damage to small vessels in the skin, enlarged pores and collagen defects, including wrinkles. This procedure, depending on the complexity, lasts from several minutes to an hour. Dilated capillaries are removed immediately and without leaving a trace, and large vessels and age spots disappear a few days after the session. There may also be redness and slight swelling of the skin, which lasts for several hours. Depending on the problem, the cosmetologist prescribes the required number of sessions.
Grinding
One of the most effective anti-aging procedures isskin rejuvenation (dermabrasion).A laser beam or a fine abrasive removes the dead surface layer of the skin, in its place young cells and new elastic and collagen fibers appear. Mechanical rejuvenation is used less and less, because with the help of laser it is possible not only to "replace" the upper layer of the skin, but also to eliminate scars, the effects of acne or deep wrinkles. This procedure is very effective, but in complexity it is close to plastic surgery. Laser rejuvenation, as a rule, is carried out in a surgical hospital, and then there is a fairly long rehabilitation period (from one and a half to two months).
golden threads
The implantation of gold threads is an ancient method of preserving youth, known since the time of the Egyptian pyramids. Its essence lies in the implantation of threads that form a kind of frame that does not allow the skin to sink under the influence of gravity. After the operation, patients notice an improvement in the elasticity of facial tissues and look fresh and rejuvenated.
Some problems: swelling of soft tissues, small bruises disappear over time. But an effect is achieved that can be appreciated over time. The skin appears to be preserved and the patient undergoing the procedure looks at least five years younger than her peers. The implantation of gold threads is a procedure that prevents aging. Therefore, the optimal age for the first operation can be considered between 30 and 35 years.
Mother cells
At the end of the 19th century, expensive methods were developed to rejuvenate the body using stem cells. Now they have become a reality. After receiving an intravenous injection of a stem cell culture and an intramuscular injection of signaling molecules, a person gains a completely new quality of life. Diseases disappear, general tone and memory improve, libido and potency increase.
The appearance undergoes fantastic changes. Without tedious and regular procedures, without operations, a person becomes younger before the eyes of amazed relatives and colleagues. These dramatic changes cannot be achieved by other methods. Not only appearance is involved in the rejuvenation process, organs become younger, hormonal levels increase, and the body again begins to produce young, viable cells. Unfortunately, these methods are used by a limited number of highly professional cosmetology clinics that have state-of-the-art laboratories. It is worth adding that the cost of such a procedure is affordable for very few.
