Popular cosmetic procedures using equipment
Cleansing and therapeutic procedures using hardware technology have appeared relatively recently. They are constantly improving, new devices appear.
We offer you a brief overview of the most popular trends in device cosmetology.
Facial therapy with micro current
According to the study of European specialists, stimulating the skin with a weak electric current helps to increase the content of elastin in it by 40-50 percent, collagen - by 10-12 percent. As a result of the action of current on the inner layers of the epidermis, an accelerated cell division occurs, an additional supply of nutrients due to an improvement in blood flow. The amount of chemical elements inside the skin cells increases. An increased supply of oxygen occurs. After the procedure, creams and masks are better absorbed. To achieve significant results in improving the skin with the help of micro-current therapy, it is advisable to perform a full course of several procedures. But even after the first procedure, there is a noticeable improvement in skin health indicators.

It is also actively used for weight loss and body contouring. This massage, in addition to cosmetic functions, has significant healing properties. 
Before self-massage, the skin is cleansed, the device should be moved along the massage lines, no more than 2-3 minutes in each place.
Avoid touching the device where there are moles, papillomas or inflamed areas. The massage machine usually has different settings that can be set in the desired way. It depends on which area of the body or face is being affected and for what purpose. Now such types of apparatus massages as lymphatic drainage, vacuum, vibration, water are popular.

Darsonvalization
This method was originally used to stimulate blood circulation and metabolic processes in physiotherapy. His name comes from the surname of the French physicist and physiotherapist d'Arsonval. High frequency alternating current at high voltage is applied to body parts through glass tubes. In cosmetology, this procedure has become popular due to its availability, lack of side effects and simplicity.
The device is small and quite effective not only in beauty salons, but also at home. With this device, you can quickly get rid of acne, acne, inflammation. It is also possible to maintain beautiful skin by treating fine lines, enlarged pores, getting rid of oiliness or excessive dryness. Such devices cope well with spider veins and skin regeneration. Under the influence of high frequency current, blood circulation increases and metabolic processes in the skin are activated.
Facial myostimulation
Myostimulation procedure can be performed both in beauty salons and aesthetic medicine centers, as well as at home. The device acts on muscles with a series of electrical impulses (through cutaneous electrodes). Muscle contractions from apparatus stimulation may be associated with contractions during maximal physical exertion. This contributes to a significant increase in skin tone and softness. Typically, the following steps are required to use the machine:
- cleansing the skin of cosmetic products;
- setting the required duration and intensity;
- by placing electrodes on the face or body, they should be symmetrical;
- enable the active mode of the device;
- movement of the electrodes to the next section;

Most muscle stimulants are battery powered. There are some contraindications to their use, so it is advisable to first consult a specialist before starting to use.
Microdermabrasion
This is a skin rejuvenation method using abrasives. It is based on the ability of abrasive particles to penetrate the skin and exfoliate keratinized parts of the skin. Abrasive micro-particles have good penetrating properties. Release of the skin (skin reappearance) frees up space for further growth of skin tissue. Currently, the equipment uses two types of abrasives: diamond powder and aluminum dioxide. After processing, the remaining abrasive dust is removed using a vacuum.
Cryotherapy
This method relies on the body's response to cold. After a strong short-term drop in temperature, various hormones, including endorphins, adrenaline, are released into the skin and immunity and blood supply increase. Several different types of cryotherapy hardware methods are now practiced in beauty salons. Some of them are:
- cryo-spray hardware: liquid nitrogen (from -180 to -50 degrees) is sprayed through a special device;
- cryoelectrophoresis: frozen chemicals are injected under the skin by electrical impulses;
- cryo rooms: rooms with cold air and nitrogen (-130 degrees) for the whole body.
Galvanotherapy
These devices are based on the use of low voltage (40-50mA) low voltage electrical pulses. Its effect causes an increase in the content of histamine, serotonin and other active ingredients in the subcutaneous layer. In cosmetic technology, devices for iontophoresis and disinfection are used. The first type of equipment transmits current to the skin surface through specialized attachments. Used to treat dandruff, acne, pigmentation, smoothing facial wrinkles. The second type of equipment is designed for cleaning. Combines the use of alkaline solutions with galvanizing. Loosening of the skin contributes to its deep defatting and getting rid of dead skin scales.
Hardware peeling efficiency
Hardware skin, unlike manual peeling, allows you to achieve the effect of youth and freshness in a shorter time. Different types of peels that the devices use cleanse and help nourish all layers of the epidermis. The cleansing is deep and involves the cellular level. Equipment for other purposes, for example, equipment for ultrasonic and laser liposuction, works on the principles of tissue cleansing and stimulation. These methods are used to remove excess weight, fat deposits. Laser skin not only removes the top layer of the epidermis, it increases blood circulation and muscle tone when exposed to light waves. The innovative redesign of the fractional laser, with very deep cleaning, causes virtually no damage.
INFO: The category of apparatus of procedures in aesthetic medicine, in contrast to the category of invasive, is less complicated, painless and non-traumatic to use. It is perfect for those who support minimal interference with the body's natural processes.
There is a hardware peel for home use. In particular, ultrasonic skin machines cleanse the skin, remove dead particles, thus stimulating metabolism and the growth of new cells. With enlarged pores, they contribute to their narrowing. The result of the procedure is an increase in the softness of the skin, changing its color to warm and fresh shades. Also for household appliances, nozzles for mechanical types and vacuum peeling are common.
The most complex types of peels are made by specialists in salons and aesthetic medicine centers.
