Aesthetic cosmetology is a branch of cosmetology dealing with the elimination of signs of aging without surgical intervention.
Cosmetic procedures include a whole range of techniques: hardware technologies, injection techniques, thread lifting, rejuvenation at the expense of the body's own resources (plasma therapy, cellular rejuvenation), body shaping methods. And from year to year the choice of procedures is getting bigger and bigger.
injection techniques
As early as the 19th century, some innovative doctors tried to use "beauty injections" to correct blemishes such as prematurely withered skin and insufficient volume of lips and cheeks. The patient's own fat was used for this. However, it quickly evaporated.
In the 90s of the last century, a new favorite appeared - preparations based on hyaluronic acid. The name of this substance was given by scientists K. Meyer and J. Palmer in 1934.
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 provides the skin with unsurpassed hydration. This acid is best perceived by the body without causing rejection and allergic reactions.
In general, all injection techniques are based on the introduction of microdoses of individual drugs (or cocktails thereof) into the surface layers of the skin to a depth of 1. 5-6 mm. For injections, short and 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 moisturizing 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 component of an excellent drug.
Calcium hydroxyapatite initiates the formation of its own connective tissue - it starts the process of forming new collagen fibers. The latter takes on the function of a natural filler and supporting frame. In other words, thanks to the filler, it is possible not only to fill in wrinkles and fine lines, but also to tighten the oval of the face and give the skin unsurpassed velvetiness and smoothness.
A filler based on calcium hydroxyapatite is also suitable for non-surgical correction of the shape of the nose (smoothing of the hump, modeling of the tip). Used to harmonize the chin, rejuvenate the earlobes. Effective for cardinal rejuvenation of the back of the hand.
Modern hyaluronic preparations solve several problems at once: moisturize, remove wrinkles, correct appearance. A dermal filler, for example, consists of cross-linked hyaluronic acid molecules, which increases its ability to store more moisture and start skin renewal processes many times faster. The uniqueness of these fillers is that, due to their dense structure, they are able to model the contours of the face (cheeks, chin, areas around the eyes or forehead), neck and remove gravitational ptosis, that is, omissionof face towels and smooth neck wrinkles. .
mesotherapy
Complex introduction of active substances under the skin - effectively fights hair loss, dryness and dehydration of the skin, puffiness, cellulite, pigmentation. The technique has no age and seasonal restrictions, discomfort is minimized, the effect lasts for a long time.
Active substances that get into the problem area, stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, normalize slow metabolism, improve blood circulation. The choice of medication is made individually for each patient, 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 all parts of the body. A positive result is visible after the first visit to a cosmetologist, but after a series of procedures, the skin tightens, acquires a healthy appearance and natural radiance.
Popular botulinum toxin therapy uses class A botulinum toxin-based drugs. This weakly potent toxin blocks neuromuscular impulses, preventing muscles in the upper face from moving. The professional wrinkle correction with botulinum toxin smoothes the skin and at the same time preserves the natural facial expressions. The dosage is selected individually, taking into account the patient's initial data. The agent is injected with a thin needle in places with mobile folds - the forehead, the brow bone. The effect can last up to a year, after which the correction is repeated.
Injection techniques are effective for rejuvenating all parts of the body - face, cleavage and neck, arms, hips, general body contouring. The result is noticeable after the first 1-2 procedures. The standard course consists of 8-10 sessions.
Injection techniques make it possible to correct the shape of the cheekbones, cheeks, chin, remove nasolabial folds, smooth the skin relief and get rid of crow's feet around the eyes.
The return of youth at the expense of the body's own resources
plasma lifting
A procedure based on the introduction of the body's own plasma under the skin. Plasma is the liquid part of blood that plays a role in tissue regeneration (repair). The procedure takes place in 2 stages. In the first stage, blood is taken and cleaned in a special centrifugal separator. The device separates blood into plasma and erythrocyte mass. With repeated purification, blood platelets are enriched in the plasma. In the second phase, the patient is injected with purified plasma in problem areas to stimulate the regenerative function.
Thanks to the injections of platelet-rich plasma, the body receives a strong stimulus to initiate natural rejuvenation processes. The patient's metabolic processes are normalized, blood circulation improves. New hyaluronic acid molecules begin to form in the dermis, and a powerful process of producing young collagen and elastin is also started. This helps smooth and reduce wrinkles. In addition, new collagen gives the face a radiant, healthy complexion.
Swiss plasma lifting
More advanced plasma lifting technology. Its name speaks about the principle of operation of this technique. Rain stands for regeneration and ACR stands for Autologous Cellular Rejuvenation (ACR).
Two active ingredients are extracted from the patient's blood. Autogel fills in wrinkles and begins to regenerate tissue from within. At the same time, the synthesis of collagen and hyaluronic acid is activated and a tightening skin frame is formed. Autoplasma eliminates all traces of fatigue, saturates with oxygen, perfectly moisturizes the skin and gives a healthy pink tint.
As a result, the skin becomes as elastic, dense, firm and radiant as in its youth. Wrinkles, wrinkles, acne scars, age spots and other aesthetic imperfections disappear.
SPRS therapy
This is a rejuvenation method using your own fibroblasts - the main skin cells responsible for the production of young collagen and elastin.
Today, a rather limited number of medical institutions work with cells. Because these are very complex, subtle, and unforgiving techniques, they require a high level of training from physicians. The worldwide interest in this therapy is growing year by year.
cell therapy
self-healing technique. It is particularly effective in patients with significant signs of aging and other structural changes in the skin.
It is important to note that cell therapy is unrelated to stem cell treatment, the consequences of which are still poorly understood by science. This procedure consists of several steps:
- SPRS diagnosis of the skin and creation of a "passport of the patient's skin";
- SPRS programs to correct changes and prevent skin aging;
- Creating a SPRS preparation - a product containing the patient's own fibroblasts;
- conducting a therapeutic course;
- Storage of skin fibroblasts in a cryobank.
Beforehand, the skin is examined at the microtexture level using modern laboratory methods. The readiness of the fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin is assessed. Based on the results of the diagnostics, the patient receives a "skin passport" in which all individual characteristics are entered, as well as detailed information on the rejuvenation program.
Millions of young fibroblasts are grown in the laboratory from a microscopic area of the patient's skin and then injected into the skin.
The effect of cell therapy is immediately visible! In patients aged 45-50 years, at least 10-15 years "leave"!
A very important feature of cell therapy is that the drug, once received, serves to do thisRejuvenation for life!Some of the cultivated fibroblasts are placed in a cryobank, where they can be stored in liquid nitrogen indefinitely. The cells stored in this way are used for the production of a cell preparation for life.
thread technologies
reinforcement
The main task of reinforcement threads (3D mesothreads) is the internal rejuvenation of skin structures. The reinforcement threads are small and smooth, they are made of PDO (polydioxanone) medical suture material, which is biocompatible with the human body. Polydioxanone causes fibroblasts to switch from a passive to an active state and synthesize type 1 collagen (we produce a similar one at 15-16 years of age). Using a specific method of installing mesothreads, polydioxanone improves blood microcirculation, which has a lipolytic effect, that is, removing excess fluid from the body. This, in turn, leads to a decrease in the volume of tissues, smoothing of the skin, elimination of the "orange peel" effect (cellulite). Therefore, in addition to the facelift, 3D mesothreads can be used wherever there is a need for quick and safe tightening. This canThis can be the skin of the abdomen that has sagged after pregnancy or a strict diet, the décolleté, the thighs, the buttocks, the inner surfaces of the shoulders or thighs.
To lift
Lifting threads are used for non-surgical facelift. They used to be gold, but the metal does not dissolve in tissues, and the constant presence of a foreign body under the skin is harmful to health. Modern threads are made of self-absorbable materials, they are safe and provide a long-lasting toning effect. So, Italian threads are made from the surgical material caprolactone, which is fully absorbed by the body and excreted naturally. During production, a double cross-polymerization of caprolactone is carried out using a special technology. As a result, the skin is completely renewed through the formation of new collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.
The effect of non-surgical plastics is achieved thanks to a special design. Designed in the form of a herringbone pattern with very small, almost invisible notches ("teeth"), when these threads are inserted under the skin, they are attached to soft tissues with the help of "teeth". They form a supporting frame that tightens the facial contours. Notches prevent fabrics and threads from shifting to other areas. The special structure allows an immediate lifting effect and keeps it for a long time - from 3 to 5 years.
maintaining tone and increasing the duration of active life
A unique highly purified placenta preparation from Japan treats over 150 diseases including lowering blood pressure, preventing the development of diabetes, high blood pressure, stomach ulcers, migraines and arthritis.
The active ingredients in the placenta stimulate stagnant, sluggish life processes. An extraordinary feature of the drug is that it is a drug with high-precision, directed action. Unlike many chemical drugs, the placenta drug, while healing, does not cause any side effects to the body. Such preparations are referred to as intelligent or "smart" because they themselves recognize imbalance points in the body, functional disorders and have a targeted therapeutic effect.
In Japan, where nearly all residents take placental medication, the average life expectancy is 87 years, and menopause occurs at 65 for Japanese women. With regular use of the drug, men feel a constant increase in sexual energy, their performance and mental focus increase. Regular ingestion of the placenta makes a person look and feel 10 years younger.
hardware technologies
Today there are already hundreds of hardware techniques and their variants worldwide that are used to correct age-related changes. No worse than a surgeon's scalpel, they remove wrinkles and tighten tissue that has sagged over the years.
Some of the most effective are lasers and ultrasounds. Fractional photothermolysis is performed using a Fraxel laser device. This unique technology appeared in 2004. It was developed and patented by an American company. Despite the large number of competitors, Fraxel lasers remain the best and safest.
The fractional principle is as follows: A thin laser beam does not affect a large area, but rather a micro-section of the skin, comparable to the diameter of a human hair. During exposure, old and damaged collagen and elastin are destroyed in the microsection. In response, the body begins to restore the destroyed area - a new skin without defects appears. Because the diameter of the micro damage is very small and there are many healthy cells around, the recovery is very fast and the procedure is safe.
The upper layer of the skin - the epidermis - is not injured, therefore, after the procedure, no clinical or home rehabilitation process is required. With the Fraxel laser you can remove wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, acne scars and pigment spots.
Because Fraxel is a procedure that stimulates the formation of new, flawless skin, the rejuvenation result lasts for many years. And scars and stretch marks will disappear forever.
The best ultrasound procedure to date is Altera therapy, which is carried out on an American device. This is the world's only micro-focused ultrasound skin tightening treatment that works at the SMAS (musculo-aponeurotic system) level without damaging the skin's surface. Plastic surgeons work at the SMAS level when they perform surgical skin tightening.
The deep SMAS lifting with an ultrasonic device includes tightening of the skin, subcutaneous fatty tissue, facial muscles, collagen and elastin fibers. Such tightening gives a pronounced and long-term rejuvenating effect.
With the help of Altera therapy, it is possible to tone and tighten the skin of the face, neck and décolleté, as well as correct wrinkles. The effectiveness and high safety of Altera therapy have been scientifically proven. More than 1, 000, 000 interventions have already been carried out worldwide.
Age for aesthetics is not an obstacle. It's never too late to start the process. But everything is very individual.
body shaping
Many techniques have also been developed for body harmony: from traditional massages and body wraps to hardware techniques.
The unique Israeli hardware system makes it possible to get rid of deep fat deposits covered with a dense layer of internal organs - liver, heart, stomach, kidneys, which significantly burdens these organs and leads to disease.
High-frequency ultrasonic waves freely penetrate to a depth of 8-9 cm and dissolve abdominal fat. It is then eliminated 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 achieve this. Meanwhile, getting rid of belly fat isn't just about losing weight. This improvement and improvement of the work of internal organs is the key to 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 deep vibration and compression. It "squeezes" excess fluid from tissues, activates blood circulation, lymph flow, accelerates metabolic processes and eliminates congestion. The device adapts to the patient's body, is safe and its action leaves no traces. It gives excellent results by focusing onFat deposits on the back, hips, buttocks, inner surfaces of the arms and legs are the most common places where "orange peel" forms.
The skin becomes smoother and firmer after just one procedure. And after the course exposure, cellulite disappears, and the volume of the body immediately decreases by 2 sizes.
trichology
Well-groomed hair is the key to success. But unfortunately for some they are not naturally too thick, while for others they begin to fade and fall out over the course of life. After all, our hair is exposed to constant stress - whether it's winter cold or summer heat, it absorbs toxic emissions. Clinics perform complex computer photo and video diagnostics using a camera and software package. This is necessary in order 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 examinations of the scalp are used in clinics. Before prescribing any treatment, the doctor examines in detail how the body is saturated with iron, what is the condition of the thyroid gland and the level of the patient's sex hormones. In certain cases, a spectral analysis is performed. It shows which components in the hair 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 surgical transplantation.
At what age should aesthetic procedures be performed?
If we talk about teenage acne and its consequences, then procedures can be performed as early as 15-16 years old.
But on average, prevention should be done after 25 years. After 30 years you need fillers that correct wrinkles. After 40 years - thread and hardware lifting. But best of all: your beautician knows how to stay young and beautiful. So it is important to find it firstYour beautician and your clinic!
