Popular hardware rejuvenation techniques
There are many hardware rejuvenation techniques, they are focused on different ages and skin conditions. Most often, customers want to rejuvenate the skin of the face, neck, eyelids. Hardware cosmetology methods for facial rejuvenation can be divided into two main categories:
- Ablative. Predict violation of the patient's skin integrity during the procedure.
- Non-ablative. The integrity of the patient's skin during the procedure is not violated.
Non-ablative methods are more careful, but in some cases, the ablative method may be more effective in solving an age-specific problem. It is necessary to choose a method in consultation with a cosmetologist.
Hardware facial rejuvenation procedures are performed using special equipment. The following devices are widely used:
- RF Lifting Devices.
- Ultrasonic equipment (SMAS lifting equipment).
- ELOS device.
- Equipment for mesotherapy.
- Devices for microdermabrasion.
- Device for cryotherapy, etc.
In some salons you can find so-called "beauty machines". These multifunctional equipment can perform up to twenty different procedures.
RF-lifting as an effective method of rejuvenation
One of the most popular modern methods of hardware facial rejuvenation is RF lifting (Radio Frequency Lifting). This is an effective anti-aging technology that provides oval lift and correction with the help of an RF lift device. This technique became popular in cosmetology about fifteen years ago.
The essence of the RF survey procedure is the effect of radio waves on the deep layers of the dermis and their heating. Under the influence of heat, fabrics begin to shrink, fibers contract. The result is an increase in skin tone and a pronounced lifting effect. In addition, the high temperature stimulates skin cells to produce natural collagen and elastin. New fibers appear, a characteristic structure of youthful skin is formed.
In addition to the effect of a facelift and the elimination of sagging skin, RF-lifting helps to delay the formation of wrinkles. The result obtained after the procedure lasts up to 3 years.
Ultrasonic rejuvenation method - SMAS lifting
Among the features of hardware rejuvenation methods using ultrasound equipment is their painlessness. The result of the procedure is increased cell regeneration, improved blood circulation, collagen synthesis, removal of toxins and metabolic products from the body. Electric impulses tone the skin and provide noticeable rejuvenation after just one session. Of course, the result may be different for different women, as it depends on the individual characteristics of the organism and the condition of the skin.
SMAS Lift - Lift without surgery
The SMAS lift is another one of the most popular hardware rejuvenation techniques that allows you to do a facelift without surgery and painful injections. The abbreviation SMAS stands for "lower musculoaponeurotic layer - these are the muscles that form the frame of the face. With age, these muscles stretch, so the skin sags and wrinkles form.
The plastic surgeon works with the inferior musculoaponeurotic layer. He is affected by an SMAS device that sends ultrasonic pulses deep into the skin, "reaching" the muscles in the frame and pulling them up. As a result, the skin appears younger and fresher, and all this without surgical and invasive intervention.
ELOS Rejuvenation
Hardware facial rejuvenation using ELOS technology is an effective and safe solution to combat age-related skin changes. The working principle of ELOS equipment is based on the parallel action of two types of energy - electrical and light. Under the influence of these energies, the production of collagen and natural elastin is stimulated, thanks to which our skin acquires tonicity and elasticity. The older the patient, the less collagen and elastin in the skin become, as a result, the skin sags and becomes thinner, forming wrinkles.
Using ELOS technology, cosmetologists start the skin's natural regeneration processes - collagen and elastin synthesis is stimulated. Undesirable age-related processes diminish, wrinkles are smoothed, rosacea, scars, age spots disappear.
Mesotherapy without injections
Modern hardware facial rejuvenation methods allow you to deal with age-related skin changes without painful injections. With the help of modern mesotherapy equipment, it became possible to transfer hydrating substances to the deeper layers of the skin without the use of injections.
Mesotherapy without injection is recommended to solve these aesthetic problems:
- The presence of wrinkles.
- Skin sagging.
- Hyperpigmentation.
- Couperose.
- Earthy skin tone.
- The presence of enlarged pores.
Microdermabrasion is a gentle method of hardware facial rejuvenation
Microdermabrasion or diamond resurfacing is a micro-resurfacing procedure that removes dead skin cells. In fact, the microdermabrasion machine allows you to perform a deep peeling of the skin. To do this, use a diamond nozzle with a crumb of different grain sizes applied to it.
What does diamond skin resurfacing offer? It evens out the relief and stimulates natural tissue repair, which contributes to facial rejuvenation. The complexion is visibly improved, pores are tightened, fine wrinkles are smoothed, the skin becomes more elastic. One procedure allows you to get the effect of skin restoration, and a whole course of microdermabrasion helps to get rid of scars after acne and hyperpigmentation.
Microdermabrasion is attractive because it is a painless procedure that does not require anesthesia and rehabilitation. The exposure time of the device, as well as the intensity, is selected individually, depending on the type of skin and its condition, in addition to other individual characteristics. The hardware peeling process is carefully controlled by a cosmetologist.
Cryotherapy as a way to delay aging
Dosed cooling of the facial skin is an effective way to solve many age-related problems. This hardware rejuvenation technique helps to eliminate puffiness, smooth out wrinkles, get rid of age spots and scars. In addition, the use of the cryolipolysis device for the purpose of rejuvenation helps to restore the oval of the face and improve skin color.
During the procedure, liquid nitrogen is used to rejuvenate the face. The liquid temperature is -195 degrees. The liquid is supplied through a reservoir tube, for which different nozzles are used. The cryotherapy procedure is not only effective but also fast. A session takes up to ten minutes.
