The skin should be helped already in its youth
Mesotherapy is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the injection of special compounds into the structure of the dermis. They saturate epithelial cells with useful substances and awaken natural metabolic processes that slow down with age.
So, facial mesotherapy – at what age can it be performed? The minimum age of cosmetology clients in this case is 18 years. Even with parental permission, the procedure is not recommended, since it involves a violation of tissue integrity, which in adolescence can lead to serious complications and side effects.
If we talk about the effectiveness of technology, not all girls need it in the period from 18 to 25-27 years. However, there are a number of factors that mesotherapy can help correct at this age:
- Acne and post-acne;
- Enlarged pores;
- Dark circles under the eyes;
- Scars;
- Pigmentation.
You can also undergo a short course of mesotherapy for preventive purposes - to prevent the early formation of age and expression wrinkles. To do this, the drug is administered locally.
Classification
Studying the price lists of beauty salons, you will see that hardware-based non-injection facial mesotherapy is presented in various types. They cost differently, the effect after them is far from the same, and their indications will also differ significantly. Therefore, you need to have at least an overview of each of them and listen to the advice of the master.
Types of hardware effects on the skin
Cryomesotherapy
Recently, non-injection cryomesotherapy for the face has gained immense popularity, in which three components are applied to the skin at once: active serums (meso-cocktails), cold (liquid nitrogen) and electric waves. The procedure is characterized by a clear lifting.
Hydromesotherapy / electroporation
Non-injection cryomesotherapy of the face is a type of electrophoresis. It involves the introduction of a therapeutic serum (aqueous solution or hydrosol) through a special attachment called an electroporate. Increases the permeability of the cell membrane, ensures complete absorption of all active components.
Laser mesotherapy
Laser non-injection facial mesotherapy is incredibly popular among women who are accustomed to pampering their skin with all kinds of salon rejuvenating procedures. After all, it has a double effect: from session to session it accumulates active substances in the skin, while simultaneously improving the microcirculation of lymph and blood. Infrared laser exposure is especially in demand.
Mesotherapy with iontophoresis
Non-injection facial mesotherapy with iontophoresis is carried out using a galvanic stable current. This procedure tones the skin, activates metabolism, improves blood circulation, and strengthens blood vessels.
Mesotherapy with magnetophoresis
As part of non-injection facial mesotherapy using magnetophoresis, meso-cocktails penetrate the skin under the influence of magnetic waves.
Oxygen mesotherapy
Oxygen non-injection facial mesotherapy is a combination of OXY therapy and oxygen therapy. The cells are saturated with pure oxygen, supplied in a jet under high pressure. After this, the oxygen capsules actively interact with the components of the meso cocktails.
Mesotherapy with ultraphonophoresis
Non-injection facial mesotherapy with ultraphonophoresis uses ultrasonic vibrations that perform transport functions so that the main components of the therapeutic and cosmetic serum get as deep as possible into the cells.
Mesotherapy with aquaphoresis
Non-injection facial mesotherapy with aquaphoresis is the simultaneous use of laser therapy (predominantly red and infrared ranges are used), lymphatic drainage and electrical myostimulation.
Types of devices
- The most popular device in salons for non-injection facial mesotherapy is the French Gezatone m9900, which allows you to combine the 5 most effective cosmetic rejuvenation techniques;
- Young-in HYDRO 013 is a portable, very easy-to-use device made in England, which is often purchased for home mesotherapy;
- Young-in Oxygen Peel 028 is a gas-liquid device from the USA.
Types of meso cocktails
Allopathic mesotherapy
Mesococktails for allopathic non-injection mesotherapy are prepared based on the following components:
- minerals;
- vitamins;
- acids (glycolic, pyruvic);
- plant extracts;
- medications: dihydroergotamine, L-carnitine, thioctic acid;
- extracts of animal origin;
- biotechnology products: DNA, hyaluronic acid, placentex.
Rejuvenating serums (meso-cocktails) for allopathic non-injection mesotherapy are selected individually.
Homeopathic mesotherapy
Here, only plant components are used in meso-cocktails.
This is the variety of non-injection facial mesotherapy presented in the price lists of modern beauty salons. Each type has its own advantages and disadvantages, each has its own list of indications and contraindications. Therefore, it would be a mistake to come to a cosmetologist and make an appointment without examination for a specific type. First of all, you need to listen to his recommendations.
Did you know that... some clinics and beauty salons give their clients a portable device for mesotherapy, Young-in HYDRO 013, to rent at home, after teaching them how to use it?
Mesotherapy after 40
Unfortunately, 40-50 years is the most active age of skin aging. During this period, women notice strong changes in appearance associated with a lack of nutrients in the dermis and disrupted metabolic processes.
At this age, mesotherapy helps them cope with the following problems:
- Flabbiness, dullness of the skin.
- Dullness.
- Pigmentation.
- Swelling.
- Dark circles under the eyes.
- Cuperosis.
- Spider veins.
However, to improve the overall condition of your skin, you will have to undergo quite a few sessions. This is due to the cumulative effect of the procedure - all beneficial substances gradually accumulate in the skin, arriving there in small concentrations, which makes the procedure as safe as possible.
Suitable age for the procedure
Even on the faces of young girls between 22 and 25 years old, signs of skin aging begin to appear, depending on many reasons, as well as external factors. Cosmetologists recommend starting mesotherapy from this period in order to prevent and eliminate deformities that have arisen.
In addition to solving anti-aging skin problems, this procedure helps to get rid of acne, relieve inflammatory reactions, the effects of tanning, thermal burns, and also accelerate all metabolic and regenerative processes to renew the epidermis.
Depending on the age group of the patient and the presence of defects in his skin, the cosmetologist decides on the choice of the necessary drugs that can effectively eliminate the problem and correct existing deficiencies.
Mesotherapy has no age restrictions, but the sooner the skin begins to receive support in the form of complex preparations, the longer it will retain its youth and attractiveness.
Effect and efficiency
Most often, girls begin to notice the first results of mesotherapy after the first two sessions. The skin becomes firmer, more elastic, toned, a beautiful, natural glow appears on it, and the overall skin tone is evened out.
However, keep in mind that to achieve the desired result you will have to complete a full course consisting of 8-15 visits to cosmetology. The exact number of sessions is assigned by the master. This takes into account the initial condition of the skin, the girl’s health and the effect she wants to achieve.
When performing mesotherapy at home, you will need 1.5-2 times more sessions. However, they are carried out much more often - 4-5 times a week.
Recommendations for care after injections
Despite the safety of mesotherapy, it involves a violation of the integrity of the skin. Because of this, it can lead to serious complications and side effects if the recommendations and precautions prescribed by the specialist are not followed.
There are not many such restrictions prescribed, but it is important to pay attention to them:
- Avoid washing and applying cosmetics for 4 hours;
- Stop smoking and drinking alcohol and energy drinks for 6 hours;
- For three days, avoid visiting the bathhouse, sauna, or taking a hot bath;
- Stop taking blood thinning medications and do not sunbathe.
You need to follow recommendations and precautions after each mesotherapy session, regardless of where you performed it - in cosmetology or at home.
Rehabilitation period
Immediately after the procedure, the skin will become red and swollen, and small bruises may form. The face may burn or itch, and sometimes feels dry and tight. Small pimples are visible at the injection sites. This is how the skin reacts to damage. Don't be afraid - your face will return to normal within 3-4 days. You will have to be patient a little, but then the first results will begin to appear.
Usually there is no need to use additional products, but sometimes the doctor advises treating the skin with cream or applying a mask if the procedure turns out to be too aggressive. Basic care rules cover what not to do:
- visit the bathhouse, sauna, swimming pool, beach;
- sunbathing under the sun or in a solarium;
- exercise;
- smoke a lot;
- drink alcoholic beverages;
- apply cosmetics to injection sites;
- overheat and overcool.
You must follow the rules for at least a week. When skin restoration is complete, you can return to your normal lifestyle.
Photos before and after
In the photo you can clearly evaluate the effectiveness of mesotherapy and see how the procedure restores facial skin in women of different ages.
However, keep in mind that in any case, to achieve the desired result you will have to undergo a course of sessions. A one-time administration of a meso-cocktail will be absolutely ineffective.
