Even if you use expensive eye creams, serums and masks, it does not guarantee that at the age of 40, wrinkles and age spots will not appear on the cover. When cosmetics are ineffective, a more professional approach to problem solving is needed - salon treatments. Everything is complicated by the fact that the skin of the eyelids is very delicate - not all cosmetic manipulations will be safe for the cover. Only a specialist will recommend the best way to rejuvenate, taking into account the age of the patient and existing skin imperfections. There are several effective hardware and injection procedures that can be included in eyelid skin care.
Mesotherapy: the introduction of anti-aging "cocktails" under the skin
Mesotherapy is an injection procedure that involves the introduction of rejuvenating "cocktails" under the skin of the eyelids. Their composition is chosen individually, taking into account the existing problems with the blanket. You can register for mesotherapy sessions after 30 years.
Active components which have a positive effect are:
- Hyaluronic acid.
- Trace elements (magnesium, zinc).
- Vitamins (H, group B).
- Elastin and collagen.
The skin in the eyelid area after the injections becomes smoother and more elastic, wrinkles and "bags" under the eyes are eliminated. For the desired effect, as a rule, several sessions of mesotherapy are required.
This salon procedure is quite painful. For some time after the injections, bruising and swelling of the eyelids may be observed.
Biorevitalization: injection of hyaluronic acid under the skin
Biorevitalization is an injection salon procedure that involves the injection of hyaluronic acid under the skin. Cosmetologists advise to resort to such "beauty injections" at least after 35 years.
Hyaluronic acid is a substance contained in the cells of the integument. It helps retain moisture in tissues and maintain healthy looking skin. The amount of hyaluronic acid decreases only with age - this leads to the fact that the skin becomes dry and wrinkles appear, its elasticity is lost. The biorevitalization procedure precisely aims to replenish the “reserves” of hyaluronic acid. It helps in getting rid of wrinkles and dry skin. Cosmetologists believe that this procedure is more effective than mesotherapy - the injected substance is more concentrated in the composition, which means that the number of sessions can be reduced.
The timed procedure lasts a maximum of 50 minutes. To make it less painful, the beautician applies an anesthetic cream to the patient's skin. The injection marks on the cover become completely invisible after 2-4 days. To achieve the desired effect, it will take 5-10 sessions, which are carried out at a certain interval of time.
Biorevitalization has a major drawback - due to the concentrated composition of the injections after the session, allergic reactions are not excluded.
Lymphatic drainage: massage of the skin of the eyelids
If you are afraid of injection procedures, you should include lymphatic drainage sessions in your eyelid care, which improves blood circulation to the tissues. This is a special massage of the area around the eyes, which helps to get rid of the swelling and "bruising" on the eyelids, the accumulation of lymph under the skin.
In-salon massage treatments can be manual or material. Manual lymphatic drainage is carried out with the help of special cosmetics so that the movements of the master do not cause unpleasant sensations, and the cells of the mucous membrane receive the necessary nutrients. If you have mastered the technique of massage, it can be done at home. With physical lymphatic drainage, a vacuum or micro-currents are applied to the area around the eyes.
RF-lifting: hardware salon procedure that removes wrinkles
RF-lifting is also called non-surgical blepharoplasty. The procedure gives excellent results - the blanket is smoothed out, becomes elastic and tight. It is believed that RF facelift is the most effective technique for rejuvenating beauty sessions. And the procedure is often used to rejuvenate the lining of the eyelid - it will not damage the delicate lining.
The essence of RF facelift is the effect of radio frequencies on the skin, which are converted into thermal energy. The deep layers of the dermis are "warmed up", which promotes the activation of elastin and collagen synthesis in cells.
The effect will be visible almost immediately:
- the mesh of wrinkles, bags and dark circles disappears;
- the upper and lower eyelids are tightened.
The RF lifting procedure is practically painless, no special preparation is needed, there is a minimal list of contraindications - not all salon procedures have so many advantages.
Typically 3-4 RF lifting sessions are needed to achieve the expected result. The break between procedures is 2-3 weeks. To maintain the positive effect, it is recommended to perform 1 to 2 sessions of RF-lifting per year in the future.
Peeling: active cleansing of the skin
Many beauty salons offer chemical peels for women. They can also be applied to the eye area. But since the coverage is very delicate, the specialist selects a gentle mixture of components - as a rule, these are cosmetic products based on fruit extracts. Chemical peels can be indicated even for owners of sensitive skin - but only if there are no contraindications!
The procedure is aimed at active cleansing of the skin - dead cells are removed, the coverage is smoothed, its color is leveled. In addition, the peel is often used as a preparatory step for the application of anti-aging masks and serums.
Subcutaneous fillers: fast relief of wrinkles
Filler is a hyaluronic acid gel. It is injected under the skin to eliminate wrinkles, "blue" under the eyes, tear grooves. Mesotherapy also uses a "cocktail" with hyaluronic acid in the composition. But the main difference between the sessions is that fillers are denser preparations that not only promote the natural production of collagen and elastin, but also literally fill in wrinkles and irregularities in the skin. In-salon eyelid care uses gels that are less dense than those needed to even out facial skin. Which component to use, only a specialist will advise you.
Experts recommend filler-based injection procedures no earlier than 40 years. But here, too, a lot depends on the individual characteristics of the patient's body - a specialist consultation is necessary! During the session, the filler is injected into the eyelids using special technology. The drug is distributed over the entire periorbital area. It is worth noting that a positive result lasts for a period of up to 1. 5-2 years.
Please note that there may be swelling around the eyelids after injecting fillers under the skin. However, this effect is inherent in all antiaging injection procedures - time will pass and the coverage will level out. There is another distinctive feature of fillers based on hyaluronic acid: after injecting an active substance under particularly thin skin, bluish stripes may be visible in the light. The effect will pass only after the gel has completely dissolved - after about six months.
