Home HF hoists

Skin rejuvenation with high frequency impulses (HF facelift) is considered a safe, gentle and highly effective cosmetic procedure. The main task of the impact is to restore the mechanism of natural tissue renewal, to make the skin elastic and firm, and to even out wrinkles of age and expression. It is worth noting the important role radio frequency rejuvenation plays in preventing the aging of integuments. Raising radio waves is carried out on special devices. The success of the procedure depends on its choice and the specified parameters.

Method effectiveness

The rejuvenation of the radio frequency (radio wave) is a kind of hardware cosmetic procedure. With the help of a special device, the beautician directs high-frequency pulses to the problem, as a result of which the temperature in the inner layers of the skin rises to 42-60 degrees. The created conditions activate metabolic processes and the mechanism of fiber renewal, the synthesis of own collagen, the process of natural skin rejuvenation.

Indications for the use of high-frequency radiation are:

• expression and age wrinkles;
• pronounced nasolabial folds;
• signs of ptosis, prolapse of soft tissues;
• skin photo aging;
• pockets under the eyes;
• weakening of the tone, turgor of the integuments;
• decreased tissue elasticity, carelessness;
• double chin, floating oval of the face;
• scars, scars, stretch marks;
• after acne;
• residual traces on the skin from birth and sharp lose weight;
• cellulite.

RF lifting is considered a gentle technique and is therefore safely used to solve the problems of sensitive areas around the eyes and mouth.

Age does not play a role in RF rejuvenation, butbeauticians recommend the procedure to patients over 30 years of age.During this time, the skin's resistance to age-related changes decreases, the rapid appearance of wrinkles and integuments require additional support.

At the same time, HF radiation cannot solve the complex problems of mature skin. In this case, HF lifting is prescribed as an auxiliary procedure for oil lifting, blepharoplasty, and SMAS technology.

Is it possible to perform at home

Facial rejuvenation with special devices requires special skills, professionalism. Beauticians are first trained and practiced accordingly. That is why RF lifting is the prerogative of beauty salons, cosmetic centers and clinics.

Modern cosmetics have expanded the possibilities for lovers of “home rejuvenation” by offering portable HF lifting devices.They have a lower radiation output and guarantee a less pronounced effect, but regularity in combination with the right facial care can make up for this difference.

Attention!The high-frequency facelift at home is inferior to the salon procedure in its efficiency. The key factor in this case is not the performance, but the regularity and correctness of the procedures.

In order not to harm his health, the patientmust strictly observe the rules of use of the device, instructions and technology for lifting, and study in detail the contraindications to exposure to radio frequencies.Beauticians strongly recommend that you take appropriate training and courses in hardware cosmetology for your own safety.

To do an RF rejuvenation at home, you don't have to miss out on the expense of purchasing a portable RF hoist. They are light and easy to move.

Device types

Devices for performing high-frequency lifting operations are structurally divided into stationary and portable.Stationary devices are used only for professional exposure and are installed in clinics and beauty salons. They have a relatively large mass and dimensions.

Portable devices are compact and easy to transport, making them more convenient for lifting at home. Portable devices consist of an attachment (handpiece) and a main part (power supply unit).

In addition to the design features, all devices are subdivided according to the number of electrodes and the technology of their exposure:

• monopolar- 2 electrodes are used: One is located under the patient, the second is represented by a nozzle, it works on the problem area. Such devices are powerful and can heat the inner layers of the skin up to 60 degrees.
• bipolar- 2 electrodes are also used, but both are located in the handpiece (tip). This effect is softer and more economical. The maximum heating temperature of the skin is 45 degrees;
• multipolar or multipolar devices- involve the use of 3 or more electrodes that alternately change polarity. This technology allows for a deep and even impact on the problem.
The
• matrixis ​​a new generation of high-frequency exposure. Its specialty lies in microneedle electrodes. Lifting needles is a gentle, maximally safe method and, in terms of effectiveness, in many cases comparable to a monopolar effect.
• combined or complex- such devices combine high-frequency radiation and other types of energy (e. g. infrared radiation, laser beam) at the same time.

Preparation for lifting

The high frequency lifting does not require complex and lengthy preparation to perform.The procedure is painless, so no anesthesia or anesthetic creams are required.

If you want to get the maximum effect of the procedure without edema, hyperemia and other side effects, beauticians recommend excluding skin injuries such as sunburn, expressing acne and peeling, as well as using peelings 1–2 weeks before high-frequency lifting. Taking alcoholic beverages is also taboo.

Before using radio frequencies for home rejuvenation, it is important to see a beautician.He will examine the skin, rule out contraindications and determine how often to do the exposure and how many procedures are required.

An important point!Go to the HF lift and take off jewelry and metal products.

Phased procedure

A high-frequency face lift session is a short process that takes no more than 30 minutes.It runs in the following order:

1. First, clean the skin well with a special product. This is necessary to remove makeup residue and remove particles of fat, sweat, dirt and dust from the face.
2. An anesthetic seal (cream) is also used in a beauty salon for 15 to 20 minutes. Home RF hoists are softer and less deep so no pain relief is required.
3. Depending on the equipment used, the experience of the beautician, special markings can be made. Their job is to ensure an even effect on the skin, excluding missing entire areas.
4. When working with monopolar devices, a pad is placed under the back or stomach (for grounding). Modern devices with bipolar and monopolar handpieces do not require this.
5. A special gel is used for better gliding of the nozzle and for easier penetration of impulses into the customer's skin.
6. In the next phase, the beautician works with radio waves on the entire surface of the face. Areas with more serious problems need to be re-exposed. At the same time, the patient feels a slight warmth.
7. At the end of the lifting, the remaining gel is removed from the face.
8. The skin is moistened with a cream.

Rehabilitation phase

Every hardware effect on the skin leads to redness and swelling of the tissue. In this case, RF lifting is no exception. Subject to the recommendations of the beautician during the rehabilitation period, these consequences will go away on their own within 1-2 days.

What specialists recommend after HF lifting:

• consume enough water per day, that is about 1. 5–2 liters. Please note that purified or mineral water, tea and coffee are not counted.
• Do not touch your face unnecessarily with dirty hands.
• Do not use decorative cosmetics, powders and foundations for the first time.
• Solarium, sunbathing and peeling are still prohibited.
• It is worth doing without saunas, baths, hot baths and any damping of the ceilings. The same applies to intense physical activity, sports. The fact is that with sweat, particles of dirt, sweat get into the skin and lead to inflammatory processes, complications;
• refrain from alcoholic beverages.

Attention!To avoid skin pigmentation in the first 1-2 months after lifting, put on sunscreen every time you go outside and try to avoid direct sunlight.

Taking antiviral drugs is a preventive measure during the rehabilitation phase, with the exception of cold sores.

You can talk about the first positive changes in your skin after a session. However, some procedure is required for a lasting and pronounced result. It can last up to 10 sessions, depending on the depth of impact.

It is recommended that the effectiveness of high frequency lifting be fully assessed six months after the course.Beauticians claim that the rejuvenating effect achieved with high-quality and competent facial care will delight the patient for 2-3 years.
