It is difficult to deal with age, especially in mature years, after 60 years. You can't argue with that. The specificity of the skin during this period becomes such that it is almost impossible to do without professional help.
But how you want to feel still young and attractive, that men turned around, and women admired the freshness of your face and said: “you look very good.” Facial rejuvenation after 60 years without surgery is possible, but it will require additional effort, money and attention.
Classification of rejuvenation techniques
If you want to maintain beauty and youth, and have an attractive appearance after 60 years, you can work on your face in three directions. Subcutaneous injections, hardware procedures or the use of anti-aging cosmetics are the methods of rejuvenation without surgery available to modern women.
Before choosing the method that suits you, you should visit a cosmetologist. It is a specialist who can help you solve the problem of aging. In addition, each technique has its own contraindications and complications. A cosmetologist will explain to you the advantages and disadvantages of each procedure and help you make the right decision.
Facial injections after 60 years
All of the above procedures are also suitable for more mature women. Regular care helps you look 10 years younger. These are not only beauty injections, but also peelings, facial cleansing, deep moisturizing, laser correction. Facial control is of great importance. You can add another type of injection to this treatment.
Botox
A drug based on botulinum toxin type A is injected into problem areas. It reduces the contractility of the muscle and immobilizes it. If the muscle does not work, then the skin above it does not move and does not fold. Thanks to this effect, the dermis relaxes and smoothes. At the same time, the muscle fibers do not atrophy, because the blood supply to them does not stop.
The effect appears 3-4 days after the injection. Problem areas will be noticeably smoothed out, and facial expressions will not be affected if the injections were done by an experienced plastic surgeon. In less than 20% of cases, a repeat procedure is required to correct the asymmetry. The result lasts for 4-6 months, then Botox needs to be injected again.
Any injections carry a risk of complications, side effects, and the wrong effect. Be very careful when choosing a cosmetologist or surgeon, and then the procedure will bring you natural rejuvenation.
Injection method
This rejuvenation option is popular due to the fact that the result is visible instantly. Injection rejuvenation after 60 years without surgery is the most effective way to remove wrinkles; it involves injecting special preparations under the skin - fillers. Gel filler fills hollow areas under the skin so that the top layer of skin is tightened and smoothed.
The basis of most fillers is hyaluronic acid. This substance was chosen due to the fact that it extremely rarely leads to complications and unsuccessful operations, because it is a natural component that is present in the human body.
After a course of injections, you will immediately notice the results. The effect lasts for a long time. The main thing is to choose a competent and experienced specialist. A cosmetologist performing injections must know not only the structure and anatomy of the face, but also have special training in injection rejuvenation.
Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is an injection procedure. A special composition containing nutrients is injected under the skin. This mixture includes vitamins and amino acids, anti-inflammatory substances, and stimulants. The composition is injected under the skin to a depth of 5 mm, after which the body begins to produce substances for cell growth and skin renewal.
The result of the procedure is visible immediately. The oval of the face is tightened, the skin becomes firmer and more elastic. A distinctive feature of mesotherapy is that it can be performed in combination with other procedures for rejuvenation and facial skin care. There is also mesotherapy for hair (more details here) - it actively stops hair loss and promotes treatment of the roots, which also promotes rejuvenation.
Botox injections
Subcutaneous Botox injections are recognized as one of the most effective procedures for getting rid of wrinkles. Facial rejuvenation after 60 years without surgery is often carried out using botanical mowing. The age limit is 65 years, and procedures can begin at 18 years of age. The effect of Botox is to tone the facial muscles. When the drug is administered, the facial muscles are immobilized, and wrinkles and irregularities are smoothed out.
Side effects occur when using a non-sterile instrument, as well as when the cosmetologist does not have sufficient experience. The amount of drug administered should be carefully calculated. In addition, there may be an allergy to Botox, this should be checked before the procedure begins.
Contour plastic
A distinctive feature of contour plastic surgery is that it is a complex procedure. That is, different injections are administered along the contour of the face - some of them add volume, others even out the contour and remove wrinkles.
For the procedures, special compounds are used - fillers. Contour plastic not only eliminates wrinkles, but also helps correct the shape of the face. If you want to change the shape of your cheekbones, chin, lips, or restore volume after 60 years, contour plastic surgery will be an excellent method. The type of fillers, quantity and injection sites are determined by the cosmetologist.
Acupuncture rejuvenation of face and neck lift (non-surgical)
Over time, external signs indicating our lifestyle, habits, nutrition, and numerous experiences become noticeable on the face.
If we add to this environmental pollution, the stresses of modern life, as well as other factors that negatively affect the body, the result will not be long in coming - we look much older than our years! But these problems are now being solved. Our clinic successfully uses a special program - acupuncture rejuvenation of the face and neck using Tibetan medicine.
This is a set of procedures including:
- general psychophysical relaxation,
- manual modeling of the contours of the face and neck,
- acupressure of biologically active zones,
- placement of needles in biologically active points.
Hardware technique
Hardware rejuvenation of facial skin after 60 years without surgery is a method that is even more gentle than injections. They are performed by complex devices that use radio waves of light and current. Rejuvenation occurs due to thermal, light, and laser effects on the deep and superficial layers of the skin.
One of the advantages of the procedure is that at the same time as getting rid of wrinkles, the skin receives treatment. However, after reaching the age of 60 this is no longer particularly relevant. There are practically no contraindications to hardware rejuvenation; complications are extremely rare.
Elos rejuvenation
It is a rejuvenation procedure under the influence of electric current and directed rays of light. Pulsed beams are applied to defective areas of the skin, as a result of which they are destroyed. Due to the fact that light energy, when interacting with the epidermis, is converted into heat, a significant temperature difference is obtained. Thermal exposure promotes the production of collagen and elastin fibers in the skin.
The procedure is performed without anesthesia and does not cause any discomfort; only slight tingling sensations are noticeable. There is no risk of scars, scars or burns. Elos rejuvenation is associated with effects on the deeper layers of the skin. The upper layer of the dermis is not affected. Elos technologies are also very effective in various types of hair removal.
Fractional rejuvenation
In this case, the effect of rejuvenation and improvement of the condition of the skin is achieved through exposure to a laser beam. The laser affects problem areas of the facial skin and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin fibers. Thanks to this, regeneration of the skin proceeds at a faster pace.
Fractional rejuvenation can be performed in two ways. The most common option is to target the superficial layers of the skin. Another technique involves laser penetration deep into the skin and stimulation of metabolic processes in the deep subcutaneous layers.
Lips
With age, the skin of the lips thins, and they become unsightly pursed. The filler makes them look younger, but the resulting shape needs to be as natural as possible. The restored volume of the lips distracts the eye from the lines around them.
Dermal filler is injected into the perioral lines around the mouth to restore tissue volume. This is very rejuvenating, especially if a woman uses moisturizing lipstick that has a positive effect on the skin of her lips.
Cosmetics and skin care
Anti-aging skin care should begin at the first signs of aging, that is, no later than the age of 25 years. Cosmetics should be selected taking into account the condition of the skin, age and other individual characteristics.
Face cream
After 60 years, cosmetic products need to be selected even more carefully. Please note that the composition does not contain alkaline components or alcohol. At this age, it is better to give preference to cosmetics that consist of natural ingredients. The most effective ingredients are vitamin E, cocoa butter, camellias, and linseed oil.
Choose protective creams whose moisturizing effect lasts for 24 hours. The most effective are cosmetics that are sold in pharmacies and are considered medicinal. In addition, it should be understood that the higher the cost of the cream, the longer its moisturizing effect lasts.
Cleansing
Facial rejuvenation after 60 years without surgery also occurs through regular cleansing of the skin. It is necessary to periodically use scrubs or other exfoliating agents to remove the upper dead layer of the epidermis. Gentle exfoliation is necessary to remove dry, dead skin. Over the age of 60, dermal cells regenerate very slowly, and this procedure will help them with this.
You should also not overuse the procedure, as this can lead to irritation and peeling of the skin. At home, you can use a sugar scrub, as well as commercial exfoliants and peels.
Face masks
The use of tightening masks will tighten the contours of the face, making the skin firmer and more elastic. As a result, the oval of the face will be clearer, wrinkles will become smaller, and the skin will look healthy. At home, facial rejuvenation after 60 years without surgery using masks is carried out using gelatin, honey, cream, oatmeal, flax seed, chicken protein.
Firming and rejuvenating masks are sold in a wide range. Among them, you should choose those that are suitable in composition and properties for your skin type. Masks with a lifting effect are very popular in beauty salons, for example, alginate, collagen, hyaluronic.
Running away from time
Of course, time takes its toll. And age-related changes are inevitable. It is important to accept them calmly, without panic. But don’t leave it to chance. Self-care at the age of 60+ should be no less thorough than before.
Skin problems at 60 years old:
- dehydration;
- dark spots;
- flabbiness;
- cessation of collagen production in the required quantities;
- the contours of the face “blur”;
- loss of elasticity;
- excessive growth of facial hair;
- The sebaceous glands gradually stop producing their secretions. Skin type changes. Oily skin becomes combination, normal skin becomes dry.
Massage, gymnastics
One of the safest methods of rejuvenation is gymnastics, as well as facial massage. Regular exercise and massage courses can delay aging for a long time.
Before gymnastics, you need to thoroughly cleanse your facial skin, remove decorative cosmetics, and do not apply cream. You need to choose a set of exercises based on your own preferences and the problems that you want to solve with the help of gymnastics. The main condition is the regularity of the exercises, as well as positive emotions during the procedures.
It is quite difficult to perform a facial massage on your own, so in this case it is better to turn to professionals. In a beauty salon, before a massage, the face is cleansed, then a special cream or oil is applied to it for the procedure. Massage must be done in courses of 5-12 sessions, depending on the condition of the skin and the chosen technique.
If you are interested in how to do facial massage yourself, watch the instructional video:
The result of these measures will be improved blood circulation, acceleration of metabolic processes in the skin of the face, and strengthening of the facial muscles. All this leads to a slowdown in the aging process. Massage and gymnastics go well with other rejuvenation procedures after 60 years.
Alternative methods
Today, non-traditional rejuvenation methods are also very popular; they are successfully used by women even after 60 years of age. These include:
- Bioenergetic lifting
- Yoga classes and meditation
- Psychological trainings
According to the theory of the developers of these methods, prolongation of youth directly depends on the psychological state of the woman. You can improve your appearance by fully accepting your own personality with all its advantages and disadvantages. Positive thoughts, regular meditation and psychological training lead to the mental picture of the ideal image that a woman strives for.
Initially, sessions should be carried out daily under the supervision of a psychologist, yoga instructor or bioenergetics specialist. After achieving some results, you can switch to independent training and do it less often. These techniques are great for women over 60, they do not require much effort and will help improve not only your appearance, but also your mood.
