Facial and body rejuvenation procedures, performed using special devices and devices, are called hardware cosmetology.
The direction has become a real breakthrough in the beauty industry and won an honorable first place among the innovative discoveries of the 21st century.
Modern devices and technological developments make it possible to stop age-related changes, simulate skin imperfections and improve the appearance of a woman, which is the main external form of expression of the corporate image in society.
Management characteristics
What is hardware cosmetology?
In short and accessible terms, this concept is characterized as the pursuit of various sessions of facial and body skin rejuvenation, based on the use of cutting-edge devices.
The cosmetological installations and devices used have an effective effect on the body and have a number of positive characteristics, namely:
- Multifunctionality(the same drug is used to solve various problems related to appearance).
- Deep stimulating and revitalizing effectand, consequently, visible and pronounced effectiveness.
- Minimum intensity of the painful stimulus during the session(does not damage the dermis layers and does not require general anesthesia).
Hardware cosmetology is divided into types, in which various signs are the determining factor.Experts classify a variety of sessions based on the following areas:
- type of procedure(removal with suction of subcutaneous deposits, face lifting, hair removal, massage manipulations, etc.);
- location of the problem area(neckline, buttocks, legs, face);
- method of influence(laser beam, ultrasonic vibrations, electrical pulses and others).
Let's analyze in detail the complex of hardware cosmetological procedures.
For the face
For facial care, specialists use many different procedures, both in combination and simultaneously or alternatively.
The sessions are aimed at cleansing the skin, firming it and eliminating signs of aging.
The general positive qualities of such devices include:
- gentle impact;
- inability to damage the skin;
- excellent result.
Peeling
A special operation to clean the surface layers of the dermis, thanks to which the uneven skin structure and small folds are smoothed, old and dying cells are exfoliated, enlarged pores are closed, blackheads are eliminated, the skin is saturated with nutrients and microelements.
The effect of peeling can significantly increase the access of oxygen to tissues, accelerate their recovery, revitalization and activate the production of collagen, which will significantly increase the turgor of the dermis.
Facial cleansing is done in several ways.
Ultrasonic
Superficial physical cleansing of the skin, which ensures the rejection of dead cells by breaking their connections.
The main direction of the method is the removal of acne and subcutaneous fat.The procedure is based on the impact of an ultrasound wave on the upper layers of the epidermis.
As a result, effective skin massage occurs on the treated area, resorption of adhesions, loosening of connective tissues, improvement of blood flow and metabolic processes.
The final result is kept for 14 days.The peeling session causes no side effects and is used practically without restrictions.
Empty
One of the most delicate and effective procedures for superficial cleansing of the skin and stimulation of blood circulation in the tissues.
The manipulation is painless and does not violate the integrity of the skin and muscle structures.
A special device creates a vacuum effect, which promotes the opening of the pores and absorbs contaminants and blockages from them.Furthermore, the vacuum treatment promotes the rejection of the stratum corneum, reducing the number of acne pimples and evening out the relief of the dermis.
The method is often used in combination with manual cleansing, since it alone cannot cope with impurities in the deep layers of the skin.
The main contraindication is the presence of varicose veins on the face.No side effects were observed.
Diamond peeling
Another name for the method is microdermabrasion.The special accessories of the epidermis treatment device were processed with diamond chips.The method is suitable for all types of dermis and is used on a wide variety of areas of the body.
During manipulation, the skin is cleaned by grinding.There is a gentle effect on the upper layer of the skin and effective exfoliation of keratinized particles.
The crushed abrasive material of the brackets slightly injures the dermis, promoting the production of collagen fibers.As a result, the skin becomes soft and elastic.
Absolute contraindications include bronchial asthma, the presence of varicose veins, diseases of the skin and cardiovascular system.
To achieve excellent results, a minimum of 5 sessions are required.
Jet peeling
Gas-liquid peeling is carried out with a special fixing device with a microscopic nozzle.This method is safe and effectiveexposure to layers of skin without direct contact with them.
Compressed air and special medicinal mixtures are delivered to the epidermis through a jet that is released under pressure.
The method comprehensively solves the problem: cleans, influences temperature pressure, saturates the dermis with oxygen and vitamins, removes impurities and reduces inflammation with saline solutions.
For best results, 5 manipulations are recommended.The duration of the effect is 6 months.Very often used to eliminate the "orange peel" effect.
Laser
The method aims to exfoliate dead skin cells and initiate the processes of restoration and revitalization.
The method is usually used to eliminate scars, facial and age wrinkles and visible vascular pathologies.
To relieve discomfort during the session, specialists use gel-like products with a cooling effect and local anesthetics.
If safety precautions are not followed during the procedure, the risk of thermal damage to the skin and blisters increases.
Laser peeling is not used if you are individually intolerant to the flow of radiant energy.
Galvanic
The method involves treating the skin with galvanic current.The nozzle is an electrode with a negative primary charge and a positive secondary charge.
The conductors are able to extract dirt particles from the deeper structures of the dermis and transform them into a dispersion composed of bubbles (foam), effectively rejuvenate the skin, provide the muscles with the right turgor and activate the movement of large protein molecules (lymph).
The method cannot be used if you have a pacemaker or metal alloy implants.
Facial brushing
Brushing is used to preserve beauty and youth and is carried out using special bristle devices.
The skin is subjected to mechanical treatments to stimulate its dormant deep resources.
During the treatment, blackheads are removed, visible pigmentation (red spots, freckles) is reduced, blood circulation is activated, metabolic processes are accelerated, wrinkles are smoothed, the skin becomes elastic and hydrated.
Contraindications include skin diseases and serious signs of aging.To obtain the desired results, 8 sessions are recommended.
For facial skin
Most women mistakenly believe that the use of devices in cosmetology is nothing more thanlifting or tightening of the dermis.
However, the management also provides sessions to smooth out wrinkles and eliminate the signs of aging.
Experts recommend these manipulations to middle-aged women to maintain skin tone and youth.
Spa
The main source of exposure is radio waves.It heats the collagen fibers to the desired temperature, thus increasing the density and elasticity of the dermis.
Furthermore, there is an intense stimulation of collagen and elastin production at the cellular level.
Efficiency is classified as cumulative results, that is, the result of using the method can be evaluated after six months.
The skin acquires a toned appearance, has a healthy complexion and signs of tiredness disappear.The cost will depend on the size of the area to be treated.
Laser biorevitalization
This method saturates the dermis with hyaluronate, without compromising the integrity of the integument.
Thanks to the manipulation, the water balance is restored, the swelling disappears and a lifting effect is formed.
To obtain maximum results, 6 sessions will be necessary.
Biochemical stimulation
This manipulation is a kind of massage procedure,which is carried out by the method of mechanical vibration, providing a stimulating effect on muscle structures and increasing their turgor.
The course includes 8-10 sessions.As a result, the skin is firmed and rejuvenated.
Phonophoresis
During the procedure, the specialist introduces anti-aging compounds under the patient's skin, using ultrasonic vibrations as a conductor.
The effectiveness will be determined by the type of medicinal serum.During the session, the skin is not injured.
Electroporation
During the exposure phases, the repairing compounds penetrate the deep layers of the dermis through electrical current.
Effectiveness will be determined based on the intensity of exposure and the type of serum.Skin lesions are excluded.
Cryotherapy
The method is based on cold treatment.During handling, the human body is exposed to ultra-low temperatures.
Intense cooling improves metabolic processes, improves blood circulation, strengthens muscle tone, increases skin elasticity and stimulates tissue regeneration.
The method is not used for diseases of the heart and blood vessels, as well as severe claustrophobia and allergic reactions to cold.
Microcurrent therapy
Used to smooth wrinkles and firm the skin.
The impact consists of small pulses of electric current,which have a beneficial effect on tissue cells.
Recovery course - 8 manipulations.
Photolifting
The main device used is a laser.It warms the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin fibres, promoting natural cell restoration.
The laser beam can cause minor injuries to the skin,to launch the body's hidden resources for regeneration and improve cell metabolism.
The effect allows you to achieve adequate skin tightening, eliminate visible pigmentation and vascular defects.
Fractional thermolysis
Fights ptosis and skin defects.The impact is aimed at the formation of microcracks in the skin using a laser.
The damage enhances cell regeneration and promotes collagen formation.
Elos lifting
The method involves the simultaneous use of electric current and a flow of radiant energy.
During the session, the deep structures of the dermis are heated, promoting the production of fibrillar proteins and elastin.
Rejuvenation course - 5 sessions.
Miolifting
It is used on all skin types and effectively eliminates ptosis.The electric current hits the skin through the electrodes.
The ends of the muscles fall under the field of action and their intense contraction occurs.
Oxygen mesotherapy
It is used for preventive purposes against ptosis and to reduce the severity of facial folds.
The method involves introducing purified oxygen into cellular structures under strong pressure.The integrity of the skin is not compromised.
SMAS - ultrasonic lifting
The method is used using ultrasound.Its effect is aimed at muscle mass, which ensures the correct elasticity of the skin and a clear oval of the face.
The ultrasound wave causes the muscles to contract and the skin to stretch.The method is used as an alternative to plastic surgery.
There is practically no recovery period after the procedure and the effectiveness remains for 24 months.
For the intimate area
As the years pass, the intimate area of many women loses its beauty.The lips have a drooping appearance and their structure is deformed.
As a result, complexes arise: the woman avoids intimate relationships.Such defects can be easily eliminated by hardware cosmetology, or rather its various techniques.
Laser scar correction
In fractional laser resurfacing the laser beam slowly destroys the scar tissue in the intimate area.
Collagen formation is actively stimulated.After the session, the specialist applies a healing ointment and a sedative to the treated area.
The procedure does not require any particular preparatory measures.The method is safe, effective and painless.
Laser vaginal rejuvenation
The procedure has gained popularity for its minimal invasiveness.To treat the vagina, a laser with a special attachment is used.The impact involves treatment of the entire depth of the muscular genital organ.
The mucosa of the organ is influenced by regulated thermal forces, which stimulate the production of collagen fibers, improving the condition of blood vessels and blood circulation within them.
The vaginal walls receive quick nutrition, which helps create a firming effect.The method cannot be used in case of significant vaginal prolapse.
Laser removal of warts
Genital warts develop on the genitals due to papilloma virus infection.
The laser removes such formations in a single procedureand is considered the most popular way to eliminate warts in proctological practice.
The laser beam removes the genital wart, leaving a small scar.The disadvantages of this method include pain during the procedure, which is why local anesthetics are used.
Whitening of the anogenital area
Most women want the skin in their intimate areas to be the same color as other areas of their body.
Laser whitening of the anogenital area allows you to achieve the desired objectives.
Laser treatment aims to uniform the color and microrelief, which will aesthetically improve the intimate areas.
For 4 shades of whitening, 6 sessions will be necessary.
For the body
Modern hardware cosmetology offers a huge arsenal of techniques for caring for the dermis of not only the face, but also other parts of the body.
Let's take a look at existing aesthetic procedures.
For the chest
Women's breasts sag and reduce their elasticity due to sudden weight loss, a long period of breastfeeding, disorders in the hormonal system and age-related disorders.
To return the breasts to their former firmness and firmness, women are looking for various methods, among which salon procedures using innovative devices are considered the most effective.
Myostimulation
The procedure is aimed at strengthening the muscles in the chest area.It is more suitable for “lazy” people who don't want to spend a lot of time in the gym.
Different intensities of pulsed current affect the nerve endings, the resulting signal is sent to the brain and then to the desired muscles, which leads to their intense contraction.
With the help of a myostimulator you can increase your breasts by several sizes.
Laser augmentation and tightening
The method is relatively new and is currently actively practiced in the United States.
A pulsating laser beam of a certain length hits the tissue of the mammary glands, improving their condition and functioning. This helps tighten and enlarge the breasts.A course of 5-7 procedures with an interval of 14 days.
Vacuum massage
This method involves the use of vacuum massagers.The suction force of the special bust cups can be adjusted.
The vacuum creates a special pressure, which causes a rush of blood to the mammary glands,which makes the breasts full and toned.
The result lasts no more than a month, so the procedure will have to be repeated regularly.
Microcurrents
This method is used not only as an independent procedure, but also with the use of various anti-aging compounds, which, under the influence of microcurrents, penetrate into the deep layers of the dermis and have a positive effect.
Metabolic processes in the tissues improve, cell synthesis is intensified, the production of collagen is stimulated, which rejuvenates the skin of the breast and increases its elasticity.
Anti-cellulite techniques
Hardware cosmetology is also used to combat "orange peel".
The application is based on performing massage manipulations using special devices that not only reduce the severity of cellulite, but also rejuvenate the skin and prevent aging.
During the procedures, the client does not feel pain and the results are surprisingly effective.
After the procedures, blood circulation in the tissues is normalized, lymph flow improves, metabolic processes and cellular nutrition are improved..
Vacuum massage
The principle of the procedure is based on the activation of negative pressure, with which it is possible to accelerate local metabolism, remove excess fluids, toxins and promote the natural restoration of cells.
In addition to eliminating the "orange peel" effect, the technique reduces the patient's weight and helps burn fat deposits.
The method is performed in a cycle of 8 sessions no more than 2 times every 7 days.
LPG massage
The principle of the technique is to treat problem areas with roller devices equipped with the nozzle of the device.
The mechanical effect creates a negative pressure, with the help of which local metabolic processes are optimized. With the help of the procedure it is possible to achieve complete effectiveness and fight excess fat in a certain area.
Sail shape
During the procedure, the device gently shapes the figure.
The impact is based on four areas: electric current, infrared radiation, electromagnetic wave, vacuum. Used to eliminate the signs of cellulite and correct local accumulations of subcutaneous fat.
Dersonevaluation
During the session, pulses of electric current are used, which have a light intensity, but at the same time have a high frequency.
A special electrode provides pulses with different ranges.The generated discharge causes a spasm of the blood vessels, followed by their abrupt relaxation.
Blood flow accelerates instantly, which leads to strengthening of the vascular walls.In addition, metabolic processes in cells improve, tissues receive adequate nutrition and fat layers are broken down.
The result can be noticed after the first session: the height of the bumps on the skin will decrease significantly and the skin will look radiant.
Ultrasonic massage
During the session, the cosmetologist influences the soft tissues with ultrasonic vibrations, thanks to which blood circulation and lymphatic outflow increases, fibroblasts are activated and dermal cells begin intense renewal.
This helps break down excess fat.For a visible effect, about 15 procedures will be needed.
Shock wave therapy
The UVT device hits the human body with acoustic waves, the range of which is considered infrasound.
High frequency vibrations penetrate the tissue structure without violating the integrity of the skin.
As a result, connective tissues relax, fat cell membranes increase their permeability, blood circulation and lymph flow return to normal, fibrous deposits dissolve, metabolism is restored and the elasticity of the dermis increases.
Dermotonia
During the session a special nozzle sucks the upper layer of skin into its internal space.Inside the device, special spheres massage the dermis in different directions.
The technique allows you to normalize local metabolism, promote the breakdown of fats and improve the appearance of the skin.
Pressotherapy
The technique is based on exposure to a strong air flow.
Pressure is created by a special device and directed to the problem area through a suit with special material, which is put on by the client before the procedure.
Powerful pressure helps relieve swelling, improves blood circulation and lymphatic outflow.Recommended course: 25 sessions.
Epilation
Hardware cosmetology is actively used to remove unwanted hair on the face and body.There are several effective techniques.
There was
Waxing is a quick and effective way to remove unwanted hair.
The cosmetologist applies hot wax to the skin and covers it with pieces of special fabric.When the substance hardens, hairs stick to it firmly..
With a sharp movement, the beautician removes the flap, removing the wax along with the vegetation.The price varies depending on the area of the treated area.
Sugaring
The method is based on hair removal with thick sugar syrup.The procedure itself is no different from waxing.
That is, the cosmetologist applies the necessary amount of sugar paste to a certain area, then with a sharp movement removes the film formed together with unwanted vegetation.
In this case, the direction of removal is carried out against hair growth.
Enzymatic
The essence of the method is to influence the hair follicles with special chemical compounds.
The enzymes of the substance can destroy the protein structure of not only the dermis, but also the hair, negatively affecting keratin.
The connecting links of the bulb's molecules disintegrate and the hair falls out.To accelerate the effect, the specialist heats the skin with a special device.
Electrolysis
During the procedure, the cosmetologist acts on the hair follicle with electric current.
, which destroys it and blocks its further growth.
The treatment of areas with unwanted vegetation is carried out in a targeted manner and therefore requires a long time.
The cost of the procedure will depend on how long it takes place.
Light
The method is based on hair removal using light waves.Let's consider the existing methods of light hair removal.
Photoepilation
Suitable for removing dark hair.During the procedure, the light pulse is absorbed by an enzyme, which contributes to the destruction of the hair in its structure.
The price per session is determined by the number of flashes.
Laser
Effectively removes dark and light hair.There are several types of laser hair removal: ruby, alexandrite, diode, neodymium.
A ray of light can destroy hair through melanin (in case of dark hair) or form adhesions on the openings of blood vessels (in case of light hair), thus interrupting the nourishment of vegetation.
The price depends on the number of light displays.
Elos hair removal
This method is based on the energies of light and radio frequency.It can be used on various hair types and all skin tones.
The cost is determined based on the number of outbreaks and the length of the procedure.
