Ultrasonic peeling or ultrasonic facial cleansing

What's happened

Ultrasonic facial peeling is a gentle cleansing technique that can be used at any age and regardless of the season. Dead cells are separated from the surface of the skin due to the action of an ultrasonic wave. In addition, such manipulation allows you to restore metabolic processes in skin tissues, activate lymphatic drainage and blood flow.

This cleansing is a type of physical peeling because it breaks the connection between epithelial cells. After separation occurs, new cellular structures begin to form that have an even color and texture.

During the treatment, tissue massage occurs. As a result, collagen fibers are synthesized and the skin thickens.

The procedure is painless, almost never accompanied by complications and does not require a long recovery period. Since ultrasonic waves do not penetrate deeply into the layers of the skin, this prevents tissue injury and burns.

How does ultrasonic peeling work?

In a cosmetology salon you will be offered ultrasonic cleaning not only of your face, but of your entire body. This procedure is carried out using a special device that produces ultrasonic waves of a certain frequency, which are absolutely safe for humans.

Peeling is based on careful and careful removal of the top layer of the epidermis.

Ultrasonic facial peeling is not anything scary or painful and involves the following steps:

1. Treatment of the skin with mineral water, which penetrates into the deep layers and pushes microparticles that contaminate the skin to the surface.
2. Hardware treatment of skin with ultrasound. The patient will feel nothing but pleasant vibration. It opens the pores and carefully cleanses them of all types of impurities.

After the first session, you will see an amazing rejuvenating effect from ultrasonic peeling, which you will want to consolidate with repeated procedures, which are recommended after 2 weeks.

Carrying out the procedure

Execution steps

One session lasts about 60 minutes. Anesthesia is not required, since the manipulations used do not cause pain or discomfort.

The whole procedure involves the sequential execution of several stages.

First, the cosmetologist removes any remaining makeup and dirt from the face. For this purpose, certain tonics are used, selected based on skin type.

To better separate the keratinized layers, gommage is used. The effect in this case will be more pronounced.

A mask is applied under the film. This is necessary in order to prevent tissue injury and loosen the upper layers of the dermis as much as possible. The duration of exposure to this drug is 25 minutes, after which it is washed off with water.

Common Myths

Many, out of ignorance, having read false information or heard it from their friends, create myths about ultrasonic peeling, so we decided to dispel them so that you know exactly what is true and what is fiction.

1. There is an opinion that ultrasonic peeling and cleaning with ultrasound are different procedures. This is a myth, since both methods are based on the influence of ultrasound waves, the main effect of which is to cleanse the stratum corneum of dead cells, as well as the skin pores of existing impurities and sebaceous plugs.
2. Many people mistakenly believe that this technique can eliminate deep wrinkles and pronounced age spots. In fact, everything is not quite like that. If there are shallow expression wrinkles, the procedure will help smooth them out and reduce their severity, but will not completely eliminate them. If there is slight pigmentation on the skin, then this type of peeling can level it out, but it will not help with noticeable pigment spots. These 2 types of defects are located in the deep middle layers of the dermis, so they can only be eliminated with deep chemical peeling.
3. Rumors about the pain of this type of peeling are a myth. This procedure takes place absolutely without pain or other unpleasant sensations. Unlike mechanical cleaning and chemical peeling, which cause deep injuries, burns, and persistent redness of the skin surface, the ultrasound technique is the gentlest and safest. Only in a small number of patients the skin acquired a slight pink tint, which completely disappeared 2 hours after the session.
4. It is believed that this technique has no contraindications for use. It is not true. For any peeling procedure, as well as hardware cleaning, there is a list of contraindications for use, which we wrote about above.
5. They say that ultrasonic cleaning cannot be carried out in the summer. It's a lie. This technique allows you to carefully and accurately remove the dead layer without violating the integrity of the skin, does not injure healthy cells and does not cause complications or side effects. Immediately after the session, you will be able to walk, swim in ponds, play sports and lead a normal lifestyle without fear of any consequences.

How often can you do it

The frequency of the cosmetic procedure will depend on the individual characteristics of the skin and existing problems.

According to most experts, with increased oily skin, which is prone to acne, ultrasound treatment should be performed once every 10 days. At the same time, at least five sessions are required to achieve maximum effect. In the future, peeling can be repeated no more than once every two months.

If your skin is dry or sensitive, it is recommended to do the procedure no more than once every 90 days.

Skin care after

In order for the result to last as long as possible, it is important to properly care for the epidermis in the future.

In the first week after completing the course, you must adhere to some simple rules.

On the day of cleaning, you should not use any skin cosmetics.

Do not expose the skin to low or high temperatures. You should also avoid sunbathing. In addition, it is better to limit trips to the sauna, bathhouse or swimming pool.

For daily cleansing, it is better to use soft gels and lotions for washing.

Effect

Ultrasonic facial peeling helps smooth the surface of the skin, reduce inflammation and blackheads.

In addition, thanks to this effect, metabolic processes at the cellular level are activated, pores are narrowed, facial wrinkles are reduced, blood circulation and lymph flow improve, cells are restored noticeably faster.

You can note the whitening effect, increasing firmness and elasticity, acquiring a healthy and fresh look. The skin becomes dull due to the reduction in the work of the sebaceous glands.

Face cleaning

The name of this technique speaks for itself - it helps cleanse the skin . The skin contains a large number of sebaceous glands that produce subcutaneous fat. Under the influence of various factors, the production of fat can increase, and then it, mixing with keratinized particles of the epidermis, begins to clog the pores.

The result of this is inflammation on the face. The main indications for facial cleansing are:

• Pimples and blackheads.
• Black dots.
• Increased skin greasiness.
• Enlarged pores.
• Unhealthy complexion.
• Decreased skin tone.

Types of procedure:

1. Mechanical - a cosmetologist acts on the skin with his hands or a special instrument (uno spoon).
2. Ultrasonic - an ultrasonic device is passed over the surface of the face, under the influence of which accumulated dirt begins to come out of the pores. This method is least likely to injure the skin.
3. Combined - this type of facial cleansing involves the use of both mechanical and ultrasonic effects. Combined cleaning allows you to more effectively clean pores of sebaceous plugs and impurities, since the doctor first works with his hands and then removes the remaining dirt using ultrasound.

The procedure takes place under sterile conditions. First, the face is steamed and wrapped in a film soaked in a special substance so that the pores expand and open and it is easier to remove impurities from them.

The result of facial cleansing is healthy and cleansed skin. Many people note that after the procedure, the face became less oily and shiny, and inflammation stopped appearing.

Advantages and disadvantages

The main advantages include:

• possibility of application on areas such as neck , back, arms, shoulders, décolleté, face;
• a combination of massage , cleansing and peeling;
• use on any type of skin;
• short recovery period;
• absence of pain and discomfort;
• low cost ;
• gentle effect.

One of the main disadvantages of ultrasonic cleansing is that such a procedure can only treat the superficial layers of the dermis. If there is an advanced state of sebaceous plugs and chronic inflammation, then this method will be ineffective.

Among the negative aspects there are also a large number of contraindications.

Ultrasonic peeling is a popular cosmetic procedure that is offered by almost all beauty salons and clinics. After such manipulation, the skin is noticeably smoothed and acquires a healthy, even complexion.

Despite its effectiveness and wide range of applications, we must not forget that this procedure also has many contraindications. Therefore, before use, you should consult a specialist. To prevent complications, it is important to follow all recommendations for further skin care.

PROCEDURE PROGRESS

Ultrasonic facial peeling consists of the following stages:

• Makeup remover
  The skin is cleansed and toned, taking into account the diagnosis of a specific type.
• Cold steaming.
  A modern alternative to the classic one, using hydrogels and other special products.
• Mechanical cleaning
  if necessary.
• Apply the disinfectant
  for 15 minutes until a film forms on the face.
• Direct exfoliation
  with an ultrasonic device. At this stage, a discharge electrode is placed on the client’s hand through a damp cloth, and then the strength and time of exposure are adjusted. We remove the film before each new area of ​​the epidermis: forehead - cheeks - chin - otherwise the pores will have time to close before treatment.
• Micromassage
  . We use a scrubber spatula along the massage lines at an angle of 35-45°C, avoiding inflammation. The pressure is very delicate. If the disinfectant gel is strengthened, for example, with lotion, the intensity of bubble formation and the overall effectiveness of the procedure increase.
• Cleaning with a Uno spoon
  . If the skin is problematic, this tool can be used to remove, for example, pustules (rashes in the primary stage), be sure to dry them with mash (a special mixture for acne).
• Final mask
  . We moisturize according to indications and perform a massage. Before our eyes, the skin brightens, smoothes, and becomes fresher.

After the ultrasound treatment, we remove the remaining gel, tone and resort to additional beauty procedures: lifting, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, etc. (Even simple massage serums penetrate better than usual.)

An ultrasonic cleaning session lasts a total of 25-35 minutes, depending on what accompanying medications are used. Sensations: barely perceptible tingling, vibration and warmth.

Skin care after ultrasound peeling

After facial peeling with ultrasound for 5 days, it is recommended:

• Refrain from decorative cosmetics and coloring.
• Limit exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
• Forget about wellness procedures (bath, sauna, beach, tanning) for a while.
• Stop antibiotics.

Possible complications

After an ultrasonic cleaning session, the face may turn slightly pink, but quickly returns to normal naturally.

If you do not follow the rules of care or choose an unprofessional cosmetologist, a skin reaction such as burns or areas of redness (hyperemia) is theoretically possible.

Other possible complications include:

• Edema;
• Prolonged peeling;
• Increased dryness or sebum secretion;
• Painful sensations;
• Microcracks.

If local cosmetologists do not inspire confidence, perhaps you should think about purchasing an ultrasound peeling device at home.
