Aesthetic cosmetology is a field of cosmetology that deals with eliminating the signs of aging without surgical intervention.
Cosmetic procedures include a whole range of techniques: hardware technologies, injection techniques, thread lifts, rejuvenation at the expense of the body's own resources (plasma therapy, cell rejuvenation), body shaping methods. And every year the choice of procedures becomes more and more.
injection techniques
As early as the 19th century, some innovative doctors tried to correct appearance defects, such as prematurely shriveled skin, insufficient volume of lips and cheeks, with the help of "beauty injections". For this, the patient's own fat was used. However, it quickly dissipated.
In the 90s of the last century, a new favorite appeared - preparations based on hyaluronic acid. The name of this substance was given in 1934 by the scientists K. Meyer and J. Palmer.
Today, hyaluronic therapy is one of the most popular and sought after cosmetic procedures. It is based on the subcutaneous injection of synthetic hyaluronic acid into the face and other parts of the body, which unsurprisingly moisturizes the skin. It is this acid that is better perceived by the body, without causing rejection and allergic reactions.
In general, all injection techniques are based on introducing microdoses of individual drugs (or cocktails of them) into the surface layers of the skin to a depth of 1. 5 to 6 mm. For injections, short, thin needles are used with a syringe or a special device - a mesoscooter. In addition to hyaluronic acid, vitamins and amino acids, botulinum toxin and enzymes are used as medicines.
With the help of preparations based on hyaluronic acid, such a popular procedure as lip augmentation is performed.
In addition to hydrating the skin, there are also those that fill in deep wrinkles. Then special preparations are injected under the skin - fillers, based on dense substances that dissolve over time. For example, calcium hydroxyapatite, which is the main part of an excellent medicine.
Calcium hydroxyapatite starts the formation of its own connective tissue - it starts the process of forming new collagen fibers. The latter assumes the function of natural filling and supporting structure. In other words, thanks to fillers, it is possible not only to fill in folds and wrinkles, but also to tighten the oval of the face and give the skin an unparalleled velvety smoothness.
A calcium hydroxyapatite-based filler is also suitable for non-surgical correction of the shape of the nose (smoothing the hump, shaping the tip). Used to tone the chin, rejuvenate the earlobes. Effective for cardinal rejuvenation of the posterior surface of the hands.
Modern hyaluronic preparations solve several problems at once: hydrate, remove wrinkles, correct the appearance. For example, a dermal filler consists of cross-linked hyaluronic acid molecules, which increases its ability to retain more moisture and initiate skin renewal processes many times faster. The unique feature of these fillers is that, due to their dense structure, they are able to shape the contours of the face (cheeks, chin, areas around the eyes or forehead), neck, eliminating gravitational ptosis, that is, the omission of tissues. facials and smooth neck wrinkles.
mesotherapy
Complex introduction of active substances under the skin - effectively combats hair loss, dryness and dehydration of the skin, swelling, cellulite, pigmentation. The technique has no age and seasonal restrictions, discomfort is minimized, the effect persists for a long time.
Active substances, reaching the problem area, stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, normalize slow metabolism, improve blood circulation. The selection of drugs is carried out for each patient individually, taking into account the general condition of the skin.
biorevitalization
A similar procedure, but based on the introduction of a drug into the dermis - hyaluronic acid. It is recommended for use on any part of the body. A positive result is visible after the first visit to a cosmetologist, but after a course of procedures, the skin tightens, acquires a healthy appearance and a natural glow.
The popular botulinum toxin therapy is performed with class A botulinum toxin drugs. This low-potency toxin blocks neuromuscular impulses, preventing movement of the muscles in the upper part of the face. Professional wrinkle correction with botulinum toxin allows you to smooth the skin while maintaining natural facial expressions. The dosage is selected individually, taking into account the patient's initial data. The agent is injected with a fine needle into places with movable wrinkles - the forehead, the eyebrow bone. The duration of the effect obtained can reach up to a year, so the correction is repeated.
Injection techniques are effective for rejuvenating any part of the body - face, cleavage and neck, arms, hips, general body shaping. The result is noticeable after the first 1-2 procedures. The standard course is 8-10 sessions.
Injection techniques allow you to correct the shape of the cheekbones, cheeks, chin, remove nasolabial folds, smooth the skin relief and eliminate crow's feet around the eyes.
The return of youth at the expense of the body's own resources
Plasmolifting
A procedure based on introducing a person's own plasma under the skin. Plasma is the liquid part of the blood that plays a role in the tissue regeneration (repair) process. The procedure takes place in 2 steps. In the first step, blood is collected and purified in a special centrifugal separator. The device separates blood into plasma and erythrocyte mass. Platelets are concentrated in the plasma during repeated purification. In the second phase, the patient is injected with purified plasma into problem areas to stimulate regenerative function.
Thanks to platelet-rich plasma injections, the body receives a powerful stimulus to initiate natural rejuvenation processes. The patient's metabolic processes are normalized, blood circulation improves. In the dermis, new hyaluronic acid molecules begin to form, and a powerful process of producing young collagen and elastin is also launched. This helps smooth and reduce wrinkles. In addition, the new collagen gives the face a radiant and healthy tone.
swiss plasma survey
Most advanced plasma lift technology. Its name speaks about the working principle of this technique. Regen stands for regeneration and ACR stands for Autologous Cellular Rejuvenation (ACR).
Two active substances are obtained from the patient's blood. Autogel fills in wrinkles and starts to regenerate tissue from the inside. At the same time, the synthesis of collagen and hyaluronic acid is activated and a firm skin structure is formed. Autoplasma erases all traces of fatigue, saturates with oxygen, perfectly moisturizes the skin, gives a healthy pink tint.
As a result, the skin becomes as elastic, dense, toned and radiant as it was in youth. Wrinkles, folds, acne marks, age spots and other aesthetic defects disappear.
SPRS therapy
This is a method of rejuvenating your own fibroblasts - the main skin cells responsible for producing youthful collagen and elastin.
Today, a very limited number of medical institutions work with cells. Because they are very complex, subtle techniques that do not forgive mistakes, requiring the highest level of training from doctors. Interest in this therapy around the world has been growing year by year.
Cell Therapy
Self-healing technique. It is especially effective for patients with obvious signs of age and other structural skin changes.
It is important to note that cell therapy has nothing to do with stem cell treatment, the consequences of which are still poorly understood by science. This procedure consists of several steps:
- SPRS-skin diagnosis and creation of a "Patient's Skin Passport";
- SPRS-programs for correction of alterations and prevention of skin aging;
- create an SPRS preparation - a product containing the patient's own fibroblasts;
- carrying out a therapeutic course;
- storage of skin fibroblasts in a cryobank.
In the preliminary phase, the skin is examined at the microtexture level using modern laboratory methods. The readiness of fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin is assessed. Based on the diagnostic results, the patient receives a "Skin Passport", where all individual characteristics are entered, as well as detailed information about the rejuvenation program.
Millions of young fibroblasts are grown in the laboratory from a microscopic area of the patient's skin, which are then injected into the skin.
The effect of cell therapy is immediately visible! In patients aged 45-50 years, at least 10-15 years "come out"!
A very important feature of cell therapy is that the drug obtained once will serve torejuvenation for life!Part of the cultured fibroblasts is placed in a cryobank, where they can be stored in liquid nitrogen for an unlimited time. Cells stored in this way are used for the production of a cell preparation throughout the patient's life.
thread technologies
Reinforcement
The main task of reinforcing threads (3D mesoreads) is the internal rejuvenation of skin structures. The reinforcement threads are small and smooth, they are made of PDO (polydioxanone) medical suture material that is biocompatible with the human body. Polydioxanone causes fibroblasts to change from a passive to an active state and synthesize type 1 collagen (we produce a similar one at age 15-16). With a certain method of installing mesothreads, polydioxanone improves blood microcirculation, which gives a lipolytic effect, that is, the removal of excess fluid from the body. This, in turn, leads to a decrease in tissue volume, smoothing of the skin, elimination of the "orange peel" effect (cellulite). Therefore, in addition to the facelift, 3D mesothreads can be used in any area where a quick and secure tightening is required. This could be the skin of the abdomen, sagging after pregnancy or a strict diet, the cleavage, thighs, buttocks, inner surfaces of the shoulders or thighs.
elevation
Lifting wires are used for non-surgical facelift. Once they were made of gold, but the metal does not dissolve in tissues, and the constant presence of a foreign body under the skin is dangerous for health. Modern threads are made of self-absorbable materials, they are safe and provide a long-lasting tightening effect. Thus, Italian threads are made from the surgical material of caprolactone, which is completely absorbed in the body and naturally excreted. During production, a double transverse polymerization of caprolactone is carried out using a special technology. Thanks to this, the skin is completely renewed due to the formation of new collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid.
The effect of non-surgical plastics is achieved due to a special design. Conceived in the form of a herringbone with very small and almost invisible notches ("teeth"), these threads, when inserted under the skin, are attached with the help of "teeth" to the soft tissues. Thus, they form a supporting structure that tightens the contours of the face. The notches prevent the displacement of fabrics and threads to other areas. The special structure allows you to get an instant lifting effect and keep it for a long time - from 3 to 5 years.
Keeping the tone and increasing the duration of active life
A highly purified placental preparation from Japan treats over 150 ailments, including lowering blood pressure, preventing the development of diabetes, hypertension, stomach ulcers, migraines and arthritis.
The active substances of the placenta stimulate stagnant and sluggish vital processes. An outstanding feature of the drug is that it is a drug of high precision directional action. Unlike many chemical medicinal compounds, the placenta drug, while healing, does not cause any side damage to the body. Such preparations are called intelligent or "smart", as they themselves detect points of imbalance in the body, functional disorders and have a targeted therapeutic effect.
In Japan, where nearly all residents take placental drugs, the average life expectancy is 87 years, and menopause in Japanese women occurs at age 65. Men, with regular use of the drug, feel a constant increase in sexual energy, their efficiency and mental concentration increase. With regular intake of the placenta, a person looks and feels 10 years younger.
hardware technologies
Today in the world there are already hundreds of hardware techniques and their varieties used to correct age-related changes. They are no worse than a surgeon's scalpel, removing wrinkles and tightening tissue that has fallen off over the years.
Some of the most effective are laser and ultrasound. Fractional photothermolysis is done with a Fraxel laser device. This unique technology appeared in 2004. It was developed and patented by an American company. Fraxel lasers, despite the large number of competitors, remain the best and safest.
The fractional principle consists of the following: a thin laser beam does not act on a large area, but on a microsection of the skin, with a diameter comparable to the diameter of a human hair. During exposure, old and damaged collagen and elastin are destroyed in microsection. In response, the body begins to restore the destroyed area - new, blemish-free skin appears. As the diameter of the microdamage is very small and there are many healthy cells around it, recovery is very fast and the procedure is safe.
The top layer of the skin - the epidermis - is not injured, so after the procedure there is no need for a clinical or home rehabilitation process. Using Fraxel laser, you can remove wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, acne marks, pigmentation.
As Fraxel is a procedure that encourages the formation of new, blemish-free skin, the rejuvenation result will last for many years. And scars and stretch marks will disappear forever.
The best ultrasound procedure to date is the Altera therapy, performed on an American device. This is the only microfocused ultrasound skin lifting treatment in the world that works at the level of the SMAS (muscle-aponeurotic system) without damaging the surface of the skin. It is at the SMAS level that plastic surgeons work when performing surgical skin tightening.
Deep SMAS lifting with an ultrasonic device includes skin tightening, subcutaneous fat, mimic muscles, collagen and elastin fibers. Such a tightening gives a pronounced and long-term rejuvenating effect.
With the help of Altera therapy, it is possible to lift and firm the skin of the face, neck and décolleté, as well as correct wrinkles. The effectiveness and high degree of safety of Altera therapy have been scientifically proven. More than 1, 000, 000 procedures have been performed worldwide.
The age for aesthetics is not a hindrance. It is never too late to start the process. But everything is extremely individual.
shape the body
Many techniques have also been developed for body harmony: from traditional massages and body wraps to hardware techniques.
The unique Israeli hardware system allows you to get rid of deep fat deposits, which are covered by a dense layer of internal organs - liver, heart, stomach, kidneys, creating a significant load on these organs and leading to disease.
High frequency ultrasonic waves penetrate freely to a depth of 8-9 cm and dissolve abdominal fat. After that, it is excreted from the body through the lymphatic system. This process is called visceral lipolysis. At the same time, low frequency ultrasonic waves are used in the system. They penetrate the surface layer to a depth of 3 cm and dissolve subcutaneous fat deposits. In this case, the hardware system works like a classic ultrasonic liposuction.
No other system can handle the difficult task of getting rid of internal fat deposits. Diet, fitness or other exercises and workouts, even the most intense, cannot do this. Meanwhile, getting rid of belly fat isn't just about losing weight. This improvement and improvement of the work of Organs internal organs is the key to the health and youth of the whole organism!
Body shaping is so effective that in just 3-4 sessions you can reduce your waist by 4-8 cm and your body weight by 5-7 kg!
And once and for all, an elite Italian device will help get rid of cellulite.
The device works on the principle of vibration and deep compression. It "squeezes" excess fluid from tissues, activates blood circulation, lymphatic flow, accelerates metabolic processes and eliminates congestion. The device adapts to the patient's body, is safe and its impact leaves no marks. It gives excellent results by acting on fat deposits on the back, hips, buttocks, on the inner surface of the arms and legs. It is in these places that the "orange peel" is most often formed.
The skin is smoother and firmer even after a procedure. And after stroke exposure, cellulite will disappear and body volumes will immediately decrease by 2 sizes.
trichology
Well-groomed hair is the key to success. But unfortunately for some they are naturally not very thick, while for others they start to fade and fall off in the process of life. After all, our hair is subject to constant stress - both winter cold and summer heat absorb toxic emissions. Clinics perform complex photo and video computer diagnostics using a camera and software package. This is necessary to assess the condition of the hair and scalp, the degree of activity of the sebaceous glands, the genetic predisposition to alopecia (baldness).
In addition, microelement analysis, mycological and bacteriological studies of the scalp are used in clinics. Before prescribing a course of treatment, the doctor studies in detail how the body is saturated with iron, what is the state of the thyroid gland and the level of sex hormones in the patient. In certain cases, spectral analysis is done. It shows which hair components are in excess and which are clearly not enough. Based on the diagnosis, therapy is prescribed - from injection to laser. Modern technology activates the body's hidden resources, awakening dormant hair follicles and stimulating new hair growth without a surgical transplant.
At what age should cosmetic procedures be performed?
If we are talking about teenage acne and its consequences, then procedures can already be done at 15-16 years old.
But, on average, prevention should be done after 25 years. After 30 years, you will need fillers that correct wrinkles. After 40 years - lifting of threads and hardware. But best of all is that your beautician knows how to always stay young and beautiful. So the first thing to do is findyour cosmetologist and your clinic!
