Hardware facial rejuvenation is an effective modern method of skin rejuvenation without plastic surgery. The use of hardware rejuvenation methods is recommended after 30 years. At the age of 30-40 you can fight expression lines and skin fatigue. After 50 years, modern cosmetology devices help to get rid of deep wrinkles, ptosis, wrinkles and make the skin more elastic and fresh.
Popular hardware rejuvenation techniques
There are many hardware rejuvenation techniques that focus on different ages and skin conditions. Mostly clients want to rejuvenate the skin of face, neck and eyelids. Hardware cosmetic methods for facial rejuvenation can be divided into two main categories:
- Ablative. During the procedure, take care of violating the integrity of the patient's skin.
- non-ablative. The integrity of the patient's skin during the procedure is not violated.
Non-ablative methods are more caring, but in some cases, the ablative method can be more effective to solve a specific aging problem. It is necessary to choose a method in consultation with a cosmetologist.
Hardware facial rejuvenation procedures are performed using special devices. The following devices are widely used:
- HF lifting devices.
- Ultrasound device (device for SMAS lifting).
- ELOS apparatus.
- Devices for mesotherapy.
- Devices for microdermabrasion.
- devices for cryotherapy, etc.
In some salons you can find so-called "beauty machines". Such a multifunctional device can perform up to twenty different procedures.
RF lifting as an effective rejuvenation method
One of the most popular modern methods of hardware facial rejuvenation is RF (high frequency) lifting. This is an effective anti-aging technology that provides oval lifting and correction with the help of an RF lifting device. This technique became popular in cosmetology about fifteen years ago.
The essence of the RF lifting procedure is the effect of radio waves on the deep layers of the dermis and their heating. When exposed to heat, the tissue begins to shrink and the fibers contract. The result is an increase in skin tone and a pronounced lifting effect. Also, increased temperature stimulates skin cells to produce natural collagen and elastin. New fibers appear, a framework characteristic of young skin is formed.
In addition to the effect of a facelift and removing skin slackness, RF lifting helps to slow down the further formation of wrinkles. The result obtained after the procedure lasts up to 3 years.
Rejuvenation method with ultrasound - SMAS lifting
The features of hardware rejuvenation methods using ultrasonic devices include 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. Electrical impulses tonify the skin and ensure a noticeable rejuvenation after just one application. Of course, the result can be different for different women, as it depends on the individual characteristics of the organism and the condition of the skin.
SMAS lifting – lifting without surgery
SMAS lift is another of the most popular hardware rejuvenation techniques that allows you to perform a face lift without surgery and painful injections. The acronym SMAS means "lower muscular-aponeurotic layer"—these are the muscles that frame the face. As we age, these muscles stretch, causing the skin to sag and form wrinkles.
The plastic surgeon works with the lower muscular-aponeurotic layer. It is influenced by an SMAS device that sends pulses of ultrasound deep into the skin, "reaching" the muscles of the frame and pulling them up. As a result, the skin looks younger and fresher, and all 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 principle of operation of ELOS devices is based on the parallel action of two types of energy - electricity and light. Under the influence of these energies, the production of natural collagen and elastin is stimulated, giving our skin tone and elasticity. The older the patient, the less collagen and elastin in the skin, the result being that the skin becomes slack and thin, and wrinkles appear.
With the ELOS technology, beauticians start the natural processes of skin regeneration - the synthesis of collagen and elastin is stimulated. Undesirable age-related processes slow down, wrinkles are smoothed out, rosacea, scars, age spots disappear.
Mesotherapy without injections
Modern methods of hardware facial rejuvenation allow you to treat age-related skin changes without painful injections. With the help of modern mesotherapy devices, it has become possible to transport moisturizing substances into the deeper layers of the skin without injections.
Non-injection mesotherapy is recommended to solve such aesthetic problems:
- The presence of wrinkles.
- laxity of the skin.
- 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 deeply exfoliate the skin. To do this, use a diamond nozzle, on which a crumb of different grit is applied.
What does skin renewal with diamonds bring? It evens out the relief and stimulates natural tissue repair, which contributes to facial rejuvenation. The complexion is noticeably improved, the pores are tightened, fine lines are smoothed, the skin becomes more elastic. One procedure allows you to get the effect of skin restoration, and a whole microdermabrasion will help 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 and the intensity are selected individually depending on the skin type and skin condition as well as other individual characteristics. The process of hardware peeling is carefully controlled by a cosmetologist.
Cryotherapy as a means of slowing down the aging process
The dosed cooling of the facial skin is an effective way to solve many age-related problems. This hardware rejuvenation technique will help eliminate puffiness, smooth wrinkles, get rid of age spots and scars. Also, using the cryolipolysis device for the purpose of rejuvenation will help to restore the oval of the face and improve the color of the skin.
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 lasts up to ten minutes.
Indications and contraindications for hardware rejuvenation
An indication for hardware rejuvenation procedures can only be a woman's or man's desire to look younger. However, experts recommend using such techniques for patients after 30 years. Among the more specific indications for hardware rejuvenation:
- Visible signs of skin aging.
- The presence of wrinkles in the eyes, lips, neck.
- The presence of age-related hyperpigmentation.
- Noticeable aging of the skin, loss of its elasticity.
Like any procedure in aesthetic medicine, rejuvenation using special devices has its own contraindications:
- Oncology.
- Pregnancy and breast feeding period.
- Low blood clotting.
- skin fungus.
- Individual allergic reactions to substances injected into the skin (e. g. during mesotherapy).
Facial rejuvenation is a field of cosmetology that is developing very actively. Today it is a weighty alternative to other methods of rejuvenation - plastic surgery, injections and thread technologies. Unlike the above methods of rejuvenation using cosmetic devices, you can make the skin younger and fresher without surgery and a difficult rehabilitation period.
