LPG lifting massage will make you feel several years younger

How to perform LPG facial massage?

The latest hardware technique of LPG facial massage makes it possible to have smooth and even skin, without visible signs of aging. The procedure is relatively short and painless, and its first results are visible after a few hours.

The implementation takes place in beauty salons according to a strict sequence, which involves completing three stages. Their correct implementation allows you to achieve excellent results, comparable even to injection or surgical procedures.

What does "LPG" stand for?

The development of such a massage was carried out by the Frenchman Louis-Paul Guitey - it was his initials that were used in the name of the procedure. This man was in a car accident, which turned his whole life upside down, depriving him of the ability to move normally. His injury forced him to do various exercises and massage sessions every day, so one day the idea came to his mind to develop a device that could help the body get back in order after injuries of various types. Now this development is used to correct stretch marks, “orange peels” and improve the health of facial skin.

Previously, this type of massage was used to restore the body.

Mechanism and principle of operation

LPG facial massage does not cause pain or discomfort

The LPG massage technique was invented by the Frenchman Louis Paul Guta, who was in a serious accident and found himself bedridden. He was looking for an effective way to restore the body after injuries, scars, and other damage and created a special device, the name of which corresponds to the first initials of his name and surname.

Its unique effect on the skin was noticed, so cosmetologists around the world began to use the technique for effective rejuvenation of facial skin.

The mechanism of action of the manipulation is based on the vacuum-pinch method, performed using a special hardware attachment with a continuous supply of vacuum, the power of which is regulated by the device settings.

This effect affects not only the skin surface, muscle tissue, tendons, but also fatty tissue, so the massage is complex, quite powerful in its effect, working on everything, even the deepest layers of the skin structure.

The manipulation is performed using a hardware attachment - a manipule that looks like a small chamber, into which, under the force of a vacuum, a certain area of ​​the skin is drawn in, exposed in 3 perpendicular planes. The procedure does not cause painful or unpleasant sensations and is gentle and gentle.

Computer adjustment of the device provides the ability to select precise correction of the parameters of the massage performed, depending on individual characteristics and the degree of susceptibility of the epidermis, as well as the severity of age-related changes.

Working mode 2 – gentle, relaxing and deep, actively working all layers of skin tissue.

In cosmetology clinics, the LPG massage procedure can have different names - cosmechanics, endermological lipomassage, lift massage, endermolift.

Features of this procedure

This method is called differently - liftmassage, cosmechanics, endermolift. During the procedure, a vacuum-pinch action occurs on the skin, reaching its deep layers. Even deeper tissues can be treated.

As already mentioned, the procedure was developed in France by a man who, due to an accident, could not move normally for a long time. The patient did not like the way the specialists handled their duties during the massage process, so he had to independently invent a device for these manipulations. Over time, it was called LPG.

At first, the device for LPG massage was intended to be used in the rehabilitation of people after certain traumatic injuries - for example, to smooth out scars after operations. The resulting effect is many times greater than that obtained with manual massage techniques. In addition, the results last longer. Over time, LPG began to be used to improve skin health, increase its elasticity, smooth cellulite and correct stretch marks. It is advisable to use LPG massage to remove excess fat. Thus, the scope of use of the device is quite wide.

LPG massage is often used to eliminate cellulite

This cosmetic procedure will allow you to correct the shape of your face thanks to the effects of a vacuum and a roller. The impact occurs with several manipulas intended for the face or body. For example, a facial device is designed to draw in an area of ​​skin and subcutaneous fat using a vacuum. Retraction frequency is from 4 to 16 per second.

This service is provided by many cosmetology clinics. The manipulation device is configured to operate automatically, which is suitable for a specific client (this is chosen by the cosmetologist). The procedure allows you to correct facial skin imperfections. Any impact does not cause pain.

This massage does not cause pain

Indications

If the skin has undergone age-related changes, applying lift massage will be a very useful type of hardware cosmetology. It can correct skin imperfections already caused by aging and become a means of preventing them.

It is used if:

1. Deep wrinkled folds have formed on the skin - it doesn’t matter whether they are facial or age-related;
2. The oval of the face has undergone undesirable changes;
3. The skin has become loose;
4. There is a threat of obesity or a double chin;
5. The skin of the face became swollen, bags formed in the eye area, the skin acquired an unhealthy shade;
6. There are bruises, scars and cicatrices on the skin.

Benefits and results of LPG massage

This procedure has been subjected to a large number of clinical trials to win the love of specialists around the globe. Research has revealed the advantages of such manipulations in comparison with similar procedures that are carried out manually.

1. The volume of subcutaneous fat is reduced by almost half, and this process continues even after the end of the course of procedures.
2. The skin becomes denser by about 50%.
3. Quite a noticeable lifting effect.
4. The amount of collagen increases, and the fiber structure is regenerated.

After several sessions of this massage, a lifting effect becomes noticeable.

It has been experimentally established that one procedure is enough to notice such important results:

• the flow of arterial blood increases, enriching tissues with oxygen;
• the outflow of venous blood is normalized, cleansing the body of unnecessary substances;
• lymph flows out more.

In modern cosmetology, this procedure is the only way to influence facial skin using specialized devices, the effectiveness of which has been confirmed in an authoritative certification system for medical technologies and inventions. The popularity of this massage in the beauty industry is quite high.

This procedure is safe and extremely popular.

Features of LPJ lifting massage - description of the procedure, harm and health benefits

LPG massage is a computerized hardware procedure based on a vacuum-pinch effect on the skin. The effect is achieved by combining a vacuum space with the work of two rollers - one grabs and slightly pulls the skin, and the other carefully smoothes it out. The specialist constantly monitors the process and, if necessary, adjusts the force or intensity of retractions, which can fluctuate between 4-16 times per minute. This means that a facelift massage can be either relaxing or quite harsh.

Despite the fact that, regardless of the location of the defect, the session is carried out using the same device, completely different attachments are used for the face and body.

The advantages of the technique include:

• high efficiency;
• quick results;
• versatility, since the procedure can be done on any part of the body;
• deep effect on skin, muscle structures;
• Possibility of application for a variety of problems;
• durability of the effect.

Among the disadvantages are the presence of contraindications, age restrictions (sessions are allowed from the age of 16), high cost - for one procedure you will have to pay from 2500 rubles.

Features of rejuvenation using LPG therapy

Of course, the event should be held in specialized clinics. Specialists will carefully examine you, answer all your questions, and help you understand the nuances of the procedure. Although some people still buy a special LPG device with a roller and vacuum, which allows them to do massage at home, so as not to spend money on the services of a cosmetologist.

The frequency and duration of procedures are prescribed by a cosmetologist. If a woman is over fifty and has wrinkled and sagging skin, she needs from 15 to 25 events. If you just need to prevent skin aging or the problems are not so significant, ten repetitions of the massage will be enough. Usually one or maximum two procedures per week are enough.

The number of sessions depends on the condition of the facial skin

Note! One session takes approximately half an hour.

When five or six repetitions of the massage have been completed, the so-called “critical period” may occur, which not everyone can cope with. The skin is deprived of almost all water, sags, and forms folds. Naturally, the appearance is quite unpleasant. But if you continue the procedures, you will be able to notice pleasant improvements.

The sensations during the procedure are related to the pain threshold and the operating mode of the device.

When performing a massage, you should slightly raise your head.

The person may experience mild discomfort during the procedure

Make-up is prohibited for several hours after the procedure.

Important! To prevent the effect from disappearing, experts advise doing two or three massages every six months to maintain skin condition.

Remember: if you want to carry out procedures with an LPG machine yourself at home, you need to have some skills. If you choose the wrong operating mode or use the wrong attachment, you may suffer from bruising. So you need to learn how to work with the device, consult with cosmetologists. If you are afraid that you might make a mistake, it is better to visit a cosmetology clinic.

You need to learn how to use such a device before starting procedures at home.

Important! Before the massage, be sure to drink two glasses of clean water, since the procedure affects the removal of moisture from the skin.

Precautions and possible consequences

In the process of preparing for a massage, cosmetologists recommend:

• do not perform chemical peeling in the facial area for a month;
• do not perform any salon procedures for 5-7 days;
• on the eve of the massage, avoid prolonged exposure to the sun;
• on the day of the session, do not use foundation and decorative cosmetics;
• Half an hour before the massage, drink a couple of glasses of clean water.

Side effects may occur with LPG massage:

1. Swelling and hyperemia of the face. They do not require any treatment and go away on their own within a few days.
2. Bruises or subcutaneous hemorrhages. Rarely observed, their appearance is possible in people with sensitive skin or fragile blood vessels.
3. Chills or feverish sensations. Occurs in the first hours after the manipulation. Patients with vegetative-vascular dystonia are most prone to such manifestations. For quick relief, you can drink herbal soothing tea.

LPG exposure is absolutely painless. In some cases, you may feel slight discomfort or mild pain in the first minutes of the procedure. If the pain does not go away throughout the session, then you should immediately inform a specialist. Such a symptom may be associated with individual sensitivity or high intensity of exposure to the device, and therefore requires mandatory correction.

Indications for the procedure

Fibroblasts are cells that affect the youth of our skin, making it firm and elastic. From the age of 25, the production of collagen and elastin decreases because the cells do not work as actively as before.

The skin of the face is quite delicate, and in response to a lack of these substances, it becomes wrinkled, sags, and its color becomes unhealthy. The procedure we are considering is precisely designed to activate these cells, giving the skin a youthful appearance.

This procedure can be done at any age

Note! This massage can be done at any age.

In what cases is the procedure contraindicated?

Despite the high popularity of manipulation, it is not recommended for use in the presence of the following conditions:

• rosacea (network of blood vessels);
• oncological processes in the body;
• pathologies of the blood coagulation system;
• herpes virus in the active stage;
• during pregnancy and lactation;
• under 16 years of age;
• hypertension;
• exacerbations of chronic diseases;
• colds and infectious diseases with increased body temperature;
• the presence of any neoplasms on the surface of the skin (warts, papillomas, large moles);
• after recent surgery.

Contraindications

Before carrying out this procedure, you should definitely ask your doctor if you can do it. The specialist will carefully examine those areas of the skin that need massage. The conducted surveys make it possible to identify general and special prohibitions on the use of this hardware procedure. As a matter of fact, the prohibitions are similar to those imposed during manual types of massage.

You should consult your doctor before undergoing the procedure.

Local contraindications.

1. Skin injuries. If you also influence it mechanically, you can aggravate the problems and delay regeneration.
2. Various skin diseases, acne, herpes in the active phase. The procedure affects lymph and blood circulation, as a result of which pathogens spread throughout the body.
3. Inflammatory processes in lymph nodes and blood vessels. Cellulitis, abscesses, osteomyelitis.
4. Tumors on the face: hemangiomas, lipomas, and so on. Massage can influence tumor cells in such a way that they begin to divide more rapidly.
5. Bright vascular network.

   
   If there is a bright vascular network, this massage is not performed

6. Vitiligo. Metabolism is activated, which causes the problem to grow.
7. Inflammation of the trigeminal nerve. If such a problem is in an acute stage, pain will likely be felt. But when the acute phase is over, you can perform a massage.
8. Excessive hair growth. The procedure affects blood circulation, causing it to increase. Because of this, hair grows even more actively.

If a person has acne, LPG massage is contraindicated

Other prohibitions.

1. Epilepsy.
2. Problems with blood clotting.
3. High pressure.
4. Diseases that cause high fever.
5. High pressure.
6. The period of bearing a baby or breastfeeding.

If you have problems with blood clotting, the procedure is not performed.

Efficiency of the method

The vacuum-roller method, repeatedly tested by cosmetologists around the world, is significantly superior to the manual method. This is proven by statistics:

1. renewal of collagen fibers increases by 27–120%;
2. the lifting effect reduces the skin area by 20%;
3. skin thickens by 53%;
4. subcutaneous fat disappears by 48%, after the procedure the process of its reduction is still ongoing;
5. there is an increase in arterial blood inflow by 5–6 times, venous outflow by 20%;
6. lymphatic drainage is activated 2–3 times.

Facial massage using the lpg device reveals the hidden reserve forces of tissues and activates the work of fibroblasts. It eliminates the cause, not the consequence, of age-related skin problems. LPG massage copes with all types of wrinkles. Epidermal wrinkles, which look like a fine mesh, disappear completely. Dermal wrinkles are formed due to the effect of free radicals on collagen fibers, and deep wrinkles are formed at the level of subcutaneous fat. The number of the last two types of wrinkles decreases by 34%, their depth and length decrease by 23 and 15%, respectively.

LPG massage has a relaxing effect on the skin and muscles of the treated areas. The rush of blood to the face sometimes causes a slight tingling sensation. Vacuum roller massage cannot be called a conventional mechanical effect on tissue. It has a complex effect on the body. The synthesis of biologically active substances is activated in tissues, microcirculation of blood, lymph, and interstitial fluid is enhanced. Cell activity is stimulated and new capillaries begin to grow.

The method can be combined with many other cosmetic procedures, except contouring, due to the rapid resorption of products injected under the skin. The effectiveness of a full course of LPG massage procedures is comparable to the effect of plastic surgery. Moreover, the technique is safe and comfortable.

Massage with LPG machine

The hardware used is considered advanced in the field of cosmetology. A modern LPG massage device was invented based on the features of the basic one.

Modernization and improvement of the classic LPG device took place in Israel. The effect allows you to correct sagging, sagging skin, smooth out stretch marks and wrinkles. The undoubted advantage of the devices is the fairly quick implementation of the procedure and excellent effectiveness.

The LPG massage device is constantly being modernized

Note! Many other methods of hardware cosmetology will allow you to notice any result after several repetitions of the procedure, and an advanced LPG device will provide visible results after a single session.

The advantage of a massage device is that a person does not suffer from pain or bruises. To do this, they use special attachments that act more gently than others. In addition, the device itself allows you to set a gentle program that will not harm the skin.

You can set the settings for each specific client

Patient reviews about the technique

The number of positive reviews about LPG massage exceeds the number of negative ones, but they also exist. We invite you to familiarize yourself with some of them.

• Alina, 41 years old

I am pleased, because after the massage course the previous contours and oval of the face returned, the cheeks were tightened, the wrinkles were smoothed out well. The skin became fresh and noticeably rejuvenated. Everyone asks what I did with her, and I say that I fell in love)))

• Svetlana, 45 years old

I had no luck with this procedure, or maybe with the cosmetologist. Immediately after the session I looked in the mirror and was horrified. The face was purple, there was a feeling of pain. The next morning I discovered bruises under my eyes and on my cheeks, so I was ashamed to leave the house for a few more days. I'm disappointed and don't understand why there are so many positive reviews about this massage on the Internet!!!

What types of LPG massage are there?

There are several types of this massage. Each of them is designed to correct the client’s skin imperfections, and they all have their own nuances.

LPG massage with lifting effect

Skin lifting can be done in different ways, and one of the methods is LPG massage. The skin is subjected exclusively to mechanical stress, and it regenerates spontaneously, without the addition of additional substances such as fillers or surgical intervention. In other words, the procedure affects exactly the cause of problems, and not only removes their manifestations. The skin becomes healthier as the work of specialized cells is stimulated.

Thanks to this procedure, you can achieve a lifting effect on the skin of the face and neck.

The desired youthful effect can be achieved quite quickly:

• beautiful facial contours are formed, cheeks and chin are lifted;
• Age-related skin sagging is removed and “gravitational ptosis” is corrected;
• Excess fat in the cheeks and chin area is perfectly removed;
• excess moisture is removed, swelling disappears;
• the skin becomes more elastic.

Important! It is worth noting that the procedure has an effect not only directly on the problem area, but also on the entire body. After such a massage, clients say that they feel relaxed and their emotional background improves.

After the procedure, you can continue to lead your normal lifestyle.

The massage does not provide for a further recovery period, and you also do not need to limit yourself in anything, you can return to your usual way of life.

LPG anti-wrinkle technology

This procedure is recommended for people of all ages to smooth out wrinkles. Massage prevents any changes in the structure of the skin associated with age, and also tightens it well.

With LPG massage you can get rid of wrinkles

The procedure device can cope with the following types of wrinkles.

1. Superficial, similar to a small mesh. In large quantities, they give the skin a parchment structure. They are usually formed due to a lack of moisture in the skin.
2. Medium-deep, touching the middle layer of facial skin. Their formation comes from ignored superficial wrinkles. Collagen fibers are damaged by free radicals, and the formation of “youth cells” is inhibited.
3. Deep, formed with the participation of subcutaneous fat. They are characteristic of natural folds of the skin, for example, in the nasolabial triangle.

Note! If you complete a full course of massage, it is quite possible to completely “erase” surface wrinkles. The number of medium-deep and deep wrinkles is reduced by approximately thirty percent. They become less deep (20%) and not so long (15%).

Of course, you won’t be able to get rid of deep wrinkles in one course of procedures, but you can “erase” superficial ones

In addition, the LPG massage device has a positive effect on the facial muscles and normalizes the blood supply to the tissues. This is very important to prevent the occurrence of gravity wrinkles. Fibroblasts begin to work intensively, producing collagen and elastin. It is worth remembering that a person also develops dynamic wrinkles - a consequence of natural facial expressions. So you need to choose the right method and intensity of the massager - any mistake can worsen the current situation.

LPG equipment in the fight against sagging skin

This skin is not elastic enough and lacks tone. In cosmetology, this problem is called “atonic skin.” The skin is wrinkled, saggy, dry and unhealthy in color. Typically, sagging is affected by decreased tone of the facial muscles, aging processes, genetic predisposition, various diseases, and constant stress.

Using this technique you can make your skin less sagging.

Typically, such a skin deficiency appears around the age of forty, when a lack of elastin and collagen in the body is noted, so it is best to start courses of preventive massage after 25 years. Remember: it is better to prevent any skin imperfections than to try to correct them later.

Note! If you have problems with skin tone, the procedure can reduce the area of ​​the problem area by about 20%.

The skin requires some time to restore its previous properties. Do not be discouraged if, after visiting a cosmetologist once, you do not notice any positive changes - any problems can be solved if you influence them systematically.

You'll have to wait to see significant results.

LPG technology to get rid of acne marks

Post-acne is the result of acne. The skin becomes pathologically thickened and scars appear on it. The color of problem areas may even change. The pores also expand, and a network of blood vessels under the skin is formed. Of course, this spoils a person's appearance.

Such skin cannot be restored - it needs to be renewed. No amount of superficial, smoothing or exfoliating peels will save you. That is, you will have to help the skin renew itself to its previous state.

Using LPG massage you can get rid of acne marks

LPG massage is a great way to solve this problem. Thanks to it, skin renewal processes are activated, the work of “youth cells” is stimulated, which synthesize collagen and elastin - important participants in the process we need.

Collagen is the main factor in skin youth, as it affects its elasticity, firmness, density and turgor. If you regularly use a special device on problem areas, you can do a good job of removing the marks left from acne.

It is worth carrying out the procedure regularly to obtain a lasting effect.

Indications and contraindications

Recommendations for LPG facial massage
Liftmassage as a type of hardware cosmetology techniques is usually intended for skin that has undergone certain age-related changes. Since it is effective not only in eliminating the effects of aging, you can resort to the procedure to prevent such phenomena.

Indications:

• Deep wrinkles, both age-related and facial wrinkles.
• Decreased skin tone, change in facial contour.
• Loose skin.
• Obesity, appearance of a double chin.
• Swelling.
• Unhealthy complexion, bags under the eyes.
• Traces of hematomas, scars, scars.

Based on the results of many years of work, cosmetologists claim that LPG massage is the only alternative to surgery, with which it is possible to achieve a reduction in the area of ​​the skin area from 20 to 40%. Therefore, the effectiveness of endermolifting has been repeatedly confirmed for all of the above symptoms and is confirmed in each new cosmetology session.

In terms of compatibility with other LPG procedures, massage is well compatible, provided that cosmetic products are correctly selected. However, you need to keep in mind some exceptions. For example, you should not perform an LPG massage procedure after recently undergoing facial contouring. Since increased blood circulation after the procedure leads to accelerated resorption of the drug administered during plastic surgery.

However, there are a number of contraindications for the endermolifting procedure :

• Blood clotting disorders.
• High blood pressure, weak blood vessels and capillaries.
• Respiratory diseases and infections.
• Skin disorders: scratches, wounds, abrasions, rash.
• Benign skin tumors, neoplasms: protruding moles, warts.
• Skin diseases of bacterial, viral and fungal origin.

Separately, general contraindications :

• Pregnancy and breastfeeding period. A lightweight LPG massage technique called “venous insufficiency” has been developed especially for pregnant women. It has a mild effect and effectively relieves swelling. Other options are unacceptable during this period.
• Period. Endermolifting increases blood circulation not only to the facial skin, but also affects the entire body. Therefore, resorting to the procedure on “these days” can significantly increase the abundance of discharge and provoke spasms.
• Malignant tumors of any type and origin.
• Infectious diseases accompanied by fever.
• Hemophilia.
• Epilepsy and neurological diseases accompanied by seizures.
• Endocrine diseases.

In any case, during a consultation with a specialist, it is necessary to disclose existing diseases in order to prevent adverse consequences.

Otherwise, the LPG massage procedure can be applied to both women and men of different ages and with different skin types.

Preparation for the procedure

There is no need to prepare specially for a massage. Usually it is advised to drink two glasses of clean water, and also remove makeup and cleanse the skin of excess oil.

The massage should take place on clean and dry skin. Although sometimes the cosmetologist applies special products to enhance the effect of the massage. The client lies down on a bed or chair facing the ceiling; it is necessary to slightly raise his head. Each area of ​​the face is treated by a specialist for up to fifteen minutes. If the skin is too problematic, it may take longer.

You don’t have to do any special preparation for the procedure.

Note! After the procedure, minor swelling and redness may occur. There is no need to worry - this is a completely adequate skin reaction. These phenomena disappear either after a few hours or after a few days - it all depends on individual characteristics.

You may notice changes in your skin immediately or over time. After the first massage, the result lasts for a couple of days. To maintain it for a long time, a course of procedures consisting of at least ten repetitions of LPG massage is required.

Most often, two massages are performed per week. The duration of exposure and its methods are related to the existing skin deficiency and its severity. An important factor is the person’s age and skin type.

Usually two procedures are performed per week

Note! When you complete the full course of massage, the results will last for about a year.

There is no need to take care of your face after a massage. You can use your usual skincare products, go to the gym, sunbathe - in general, live the way you are used to.

How to properly prepare for a massage

Before the session, you should consult with a cosmetologist and dermatologist. To exclude the development of undesirable consequences, especially in the presence of chronic diseases, a specialist may refer the patient for additional examination. This may include laboratory tests such as a general and biochemical blood test, tests for thyroid hormones and glucose. In some cases, an ultrasound or electrocardiogram may be required.

Counting calories and maintaining a nutrient balance does not affect the final result of LPG in the facial area. In this case, you should pay attention to the salt content in the foods you consume. Its excess contributes to fluid retention, which means that the effect may not be complete. Therefore, a few days before the procedure, it is better to refrain from:

• pickles, smoked meats, spicy, fatty dishes;
• fast food;
• carbonated or alcoholic drinks;
• coffee;
• tobacco products.

It is recommended to adhere to the drinking regime for 4-5 days before the session.

The daily fluid intake, which is equal to two liters, is an average figure - depending on various individual characteristics, the body may require a little more or less water. Its excess is as undesirable as its deficiency, since it can cause the appearance of dark circles or bags under the eyes and a general puffiness of the face.

Customer reviews about the procedure

Natalya, Moscow

“I really tried a lot of different cosmetic procedures. What I liked most was the LPG technology. The quick effect is pleasing - the face has become toned, the oval has become more beautiful. And it didn’t take many procedures! Of course, I will repeat this massage so that the results last for a long time. By the way, I do LPG massage in other areas to firm up the skin and get rid of cellulite. And in this case the method is no less effective.”

There are more positive reviews about this procedure than negative ones

Maria, St. Petersburg

“I did the LPG massage on the advice of a cosmetologist. I don't have any wrinkles yet, but lack of sleep has significantly worsened the appearance of my face. The massage really saved my skin, as even one procedure was enough for an excellent result. Of course, I will go through the entire course of procedures, I want to see a brighter result. I advise you to try this method, just consult a specialist first.”

Katerina, Sergiev Posad

“I still don’t understand what the point of LPG massage is. It seems that I did everything that the specialist told me, I completed the full course. And what happened? Yes, absolutely nothing. Of course, my face began to look healthy, but I didn’t see any dramatic changes. Probably not my method, because I saw the results of other people and read a lot of reviews. Perhaps I just don’t need this method of rejuvenation yet.”

Note! Often negative reviews about such a cosmetic procedure are probably associated with the use of low-quality equipment in cosmetic clinics.

She developed and began to sell effective devices for delicate massage of the skin of the neck, décolleté, and face.

The effect of LPG facial massage increases many times over if it is carried out simultaneously with the application of nourishing masks, as well as masks with a lifting effect.

Massage using these devices is recommended to be used to prevent the occurrence or eliminate the consequences of such phenomena as:

• decreased skin tone;

Cost of the procedure

We will indicate the average cost of the procedure in different cities of Russia. Let us clarify that it depends on the specifics of the clinic, the experience and qualifications of the doctor, the equipment used, and the duration of the session. We advise you not to go to clinics and centers where the cost of the procedure is too low - perhaps they do not use a real LPG massage device, but a fake one that will not be able to affect the skin as necessary. Because of this, at best, you will not see any results at all.

Reviews

“Before, I never thought about the need to visit a cosmetologist to have a facial massage, but when I began to have pronounced nasolabial folds and wrinkles, I decided that I had to somehow deal with this and went to the salon. The cosmetologist advised me to try one session of hardware massage, and then decide based on how I feel whether it is suitable or not. After the first procedure, I immediately noticed results: my complexion improved and my elasticity returned. The following sessions helped eliminate swelling, nasolabial folds, and wrinkles. Decreased sagging. Over the course of 12 procedures, I began to look five years younger.”

Daria, 36 years old

“I took a course using an LPG device a year ago - the results are still noticeable. I really liked the procedure itself. There were no unpleasant sensations, just a slight tingling sensation. After the procedure, the skin turned pink, became smooth, the face became fresher, and tightened. The swelling has disappeared. So far I don’t see the need to take the course again, but when the opportunity arises, I will definitely repeat it.”

Valentina, 33 years old

“My sister persuaded me to have a hardware massage. At first I was skeptical about this procedure. After several sessions, the skin on my face became a little swollen and there was slight pain, but the cosmetologist assured me that this was normal and would pass soon. Indeed, at the end of the course, the swelling disappeared, the double chin and excess fat layer disappeared. My face began to look fresh and young. “Everyone I know says that I look 10 years younger.”

Questions and answers

How soon will the effect be noticeable?
If the procedure is carried out at the age of 35-50 years, age-related changes are already noticeable on the skin, then the effect will be noticeable after the first sessions. When massage is used as a prevention of early aging at the age of 25-30, the results will not be very noticeable. What to do if hardware massage does not give any results? The result largely depends on the experience of the cosmetologist and the chosen program. If after several sessions there is no improvement in the condition of the face, you need to change either the program or the cosmetologist.

Will there be any benefit from combining a course of hardware massage and Botox injections? Botox is not a contraindication to massage, but it is better to carry out the procedure after a month. However, this is not advisable, since massage will increase blood circulation, and this will cause the drug to be absorbed. Therefore, it is better to first undergo a course of massage, only after that do injections, but then it is not advisable to carry out other supporting procedures for several months.

How often should I do it? The massage course depends on your health condition. If the patient is over 50 years old and has loose, wrinkled skin, then 15-25 sessions are needed. As a preventative measure, 10 procedures will be sufficient.

Sessions are held 1-2 times a week. On average, the procedure lasts 30-35 minutes. The effect after completing the full course lasts for six months. Cosmetologists recommend performing 1-2 maintenance massages per month during this period of time.

Types of massage

Depending on what equipment is used, there are:

• non-hardware massage, which is done manually using cosmetics;
• hardware massage performed with special equipment.

Both types are highly effective, are selected by a specialist individually for each client, and differ in impact.

Non-apparatus massage

1. Cosmetic, also called classic. This type of manual treatment is carried out by salon cosmetologists in the form of stroking and rubbing movements with their hands using an individually selected cosmetic product: gel, talc, cream or oil. With its help, puffiness is removed, the tone of the facial muscles is maintained, and the depth of wrinkles is reduced.
2. Plastic, tightening without a surgeon's scalpel. With age, the skin can become deformed and regeneration processes slow down. This type of massage helps tighten the skin and relieve swelling. There is an enhanced effect on the epidermis.
3. The pinching procedure is carried out in the form of pinching, stroking and vibrating movements using talc. Increases blood circulation and saturation of cells with oxygen. Improves complexion, helps exfoliate dead skin particles. Indicated for women with acne or oily skin types. Contraindicated for skin lesions and inflammation.
4. Lymphatic drainage is carried out in the form of alternating stroking and patting with use. During manual treatment, a gel or cream is applied. Rejuvenation of the skin can be seen in the subsidence of swelling and evening out color. Recommended for people with swelling, puffy eyes. Contraindicated if there are purulent inflammations, cancerous tumors, infections.

Hardware massage

1. Galvanization is a comfortable and safe manipulation, carried out by applying low-voltage electrical discharges to the tissue cells of the epidermis. This helps speed up metabolism, improve regeneration, and restore protective properties from external factors.
2. Lymphatic drainage using electric current on all layers of the epidermis. Lymphatic outflow increases, the body is cleansed of toxins and excess fluid, and the muscles become firm and elastic under the influence of such training. The skin is evened out and smoothed.
3. Vacuum massage is carried out using a device that retracts the skin. Helps eliminate fat deposits, relieve swelling, improve blood circulation. It is recommended that this procedure be performed by a specialist to avoid tissue damage. Improper handling can cause injury. Often pain occurs during the procedure.
4. Cryomassage is based on the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of low temperature. From the cold, the blood vessels sharply narrow and then expand. This helps to activate the metabolic process, improve health and rejuvenation. Hardware cryomassage is a treatment of the skin with medications, which are delivered into the epidermis by an electric current from the device.
5. Microcurrent therapy is performed using electrodes and a conductive gel. The device's impulses activate the lymphatic system, eliminate puffiness, pigmentation, wrinkles and other signs of skin aging.

Types of massage devices

The device is selected taking into account skin problems and depending on the method of exposure.

The following device categories exist:

1. Vacuum. The main purpose is to cleanse the skin of impurities, normalize the functioning of the sebaceous glands, and smooth out small wrinkles.
2. Ultrasonic. Helps improve the production of your own collagen, restore elasticity to muscle tissue, and make the skin elastic.

What we work on

LPG lifting is carried out using the latest generation endodermolifting devices: “.LPG Cellu M6 Integral” and “Cellu M6 Keymodule - 2”.
The Ergolift handpiece, which these devices are equipped with, has increased power, which increases the depth of cellular stimulation and more effectively activates the own mechanisms of dermal regeneration. As a result, the patient achieves the desired results in the shortest possible time. LPG lifting does not require preparation. The procedure takes place at a predetermined time, after performing a series of preparatory manipulations. The session is carried out on dry and clean skin.

Scheme of massage lines on the face

In beauty salons they practice both static and dynamic vacuum facial massage using a device. It is safer to perform dynamic massage yourself at home.

Without special knowledge on what point to place the device's nozzle or jar during static massage, with what intensity to do it, after how long to remove it and how to treat the skin afterwards, it can lead to damage to the skin and deeper layers.

Massage lines are the directions in which the skin stretches the least. On the face they are located in the direction of lymph flow, from the center to the periphery.

Massage with vacuum action is performed with short and smooth movements, drawing lines no more than 8 cm long.
The procedure should not cause pain. Massage lines of the face and neck pass:

• from the center of the chin to the earlobes;
• from the corners of the mouth and wings of the nose to the middle part of the ear;
• from the tip of the nose up to the bridge of the nose and arched to its wings;
• from the bridge of the nose to the temples and hairline;
• circularly around the eyelids. Along the upper eyelid - from the inner corner to the temples, along the lower eyelid - in the opposite direction, to the nose;
• from the collarbones up to the chin area. In the front area of ​​the neck, massage lines are directed upward, and on the sides - from top to bottom.
