The appearance of expression lines is always an unpleasant surprise for a woman. The situation is exacerbated when the skin of the face becomes slack and loses its healthy tone due to the loss of elasticity. In such cases, women panic looking for ways to regain their former attractiveness.
However, this phenomenon should not be a cause for panic, as cosmetics today offer many options for eliminating wrinkles. Facial rejuvenation with microcurrents (microlifting), especially with low frequency ones, has become very popular all over the world. Its popularity continues to grow due to its high efficiency, painlessness and tamper resistance.
Microcurrent facial therapy is a comfortable and sensitive hardware technique for facial rejuvenation that is very popular with both women and men.
The organism is designed in such a way that its vital activity is supported by constantly occurring electrochemical reactions. The human body, made up of cells, is covered with a polarized cell membrane (cytoplasm). In a healthy state, its outside carries a negative charge and the inside is positive. Living cells come into contact with the environment through electrical signals.
The skin is damaged with increasing age. Malfunctions in the body lead to a slowdown in metabolic processes and gradual cell death. The action of microcurrents restores the skin polarization and triggers the following processes:
Important!Since the AC values are small, the procedure may not be addicting. As a result, every repeated session is accepted by the human body as a beneficial effect in every respect. A sufficient effect is achieved by using theprocedure!
Cosmetic clinics and salons offer different types of procedures based on microcurrent therapy. All options are offered to patients. Let's consider the most popular:
Lift your face and neck. This procedure will tone the face towel, reduce sagging and smooth fine wrinkles. It should be emphasized that a face lift can only be carried out with special equipment designed for this purpose. Ordinary devices, on the contrary, due to their high activity, can aggravate the problem with facial wrinkles and even lead to the development of neuritis.
Warning!When performing microcurrent therapy, electrodes should not be placed in the area of the heart, eyeballs and blood vessels on the neck.
The combination of microcurrents with mesotherapy gives the best results. In this case, there is no damage to the epidermis.
The experience of beauticians performing facial rejuvenation with microcurrents confirms that good results are achieved thanks to:
Microcurrent therapy is increasingly in demand today due to its painlessness, safety and the lack of a rehabilitation phase. After the session, the patient can go home and go about their business immediately.
With the technique described, you can remove puffiness, increase the elasticity of the facial muscles and give your face a pleasantly healthy tone.
Important!Micro currents - course procedure. The preservation of the effect of this method of rejuvenation can be observed for 3 months or more.
In view of this concept, it should be noted that it covers many different methods that use low frequency electrical pulses with a current of a certain strength (within 600-1000 μA).
Today the cosmetic market offers various models of devices for rejuvenation of microcurrent therapy. They differ in the device of the electrodes and properties.
The devices are classified according to:
In cases where the skin is treated with a monopolar current, drugs are used in small doses.
When choosing a technique for facial rejuvenation, it is necessary to find out in which cases it will be prescribed. Microcurrent therapy has its own specific indications. It is prescribed in the following cases:
It should also be noted that the hardware techniques are microcurrent therapy that doctors use before plastic correction and after performing it during the rehabilitation period.
Beauticians often use microcurrents when the skin needs to be restored after laser treatment, microdermabrasion and various peelings.
The procedure in which the facial skin is exposed to microcurrents takes place in seven steps:
Application of a special contact gel to the entire face. This agent has a special conductive composition. It contains numerous useful active ingredients (if the patient has acne, a special conductive anti-acne gel is used, if there are wrinkles, the specialist will use a special anti-wrinkle gel).
Oily compositions in this case are not used by a specialist, as they are weak conductors of electric current. Since the gel dries out during the session, unpleasant sensations are possible. To avoid this, the specialist moisturizes the electrodes regularly during the procedure.
Exposure of the skin with electrodes. Metal electrodes, cotton swabs moistened with a liquid composition or even conductive gloves
can be used as electrodesbe used.The "labile" techniqueis often used, in which the electrodes are moved over the skin during the procedure.
Sometimes a"stable" techniquecan be used with the electrodes attached to the epidermis.
In microcurrent therapy with the "unstable" technique, electrodes are guided along the lines of the lymphatic drainage. Always start moving the electrodes away from your neck to facilitate free lymph flow from the face.
How many treatments may you need?
It is difficult to precisely answer the question of how many procedures are required to achieve the desired effect. Why? Since everything depends on the age of the fair sex:
The method of microcurrent therapy is very popular with men because during the course of the action it delivers excellent results, is painless and does not require a recovery phase!
The non-invasive procedure described above for exposure to the epidermis of the face to microcurrents is usually easy to tolerate, but side effects can also occur. Your list is small. This:
Micro-lifting, like many other methods of rejuvenating the salon, can imply a number of contraindications. Everyone who wants to undergo this antiaging treatment should know about it.
The list of the most common contraindications looks like this:
In addition to the general, there are also local contraindications. This:
Microlifting is usually only performed by a beautician. However, relatively recently, women have had the option of microlifting at home. It should be said in advance that the effect of such manipulation at home will be much less. As women increasingly choose this method, given the democratic price, it makes sense to discuss it.
If you have a special device on hand, the stages of microlifting at home are similar to the stages of salon manipulation (first, thorough makeup removal is carried out, then a contact gel is applied to the area and the process begins).
Important!So that the effect of such an effect can only be slightly observed, the procedures should be performed twice as often as in a clinic or a salon.
Due to the fact that the effect of microcurrents in the household is very weak, side effects very rarely occur in this case.
The strength of the current during microlifting in the salon is always checked by the doctor. First the specialist determines the minimum level, then the current increases.
Sometimes any muscle (most often a muscle of an arm or leg) can voluntarily contract when exposed to a current. You shouldn't be afraid of such a reaction as it is the body's reaction to the effect of the current strength.
Microlifting can be combined and approved after a number of other cosmetic interventions. In this case, however, the important point is the interval between the manipulations:
A light chemical peel is recommended before exposure to microcurrents. This allows you to get a stronger effect.
RF lifting is understood as a radio wave method with which you can form a skeleton of the face from collagen and elastin. Microcurrents work differently. They stimulate the production of collagen and elastin by injecting special substances into the subcutaneous layer without injection.
RF lifting enables a quick effect, as old collagen fibers are strengthened after the procedure. The lifting effect of HF lifting increases with each procedure. A total of 10 procedures per course may be required. However, the peculiarity of RF lifting is that such manipulations can be recommended for women after 35-40 years of age, while microcurrents can also be recommended for very young girls (if indicated).
