At the cosmetologist's

Facial cleansing of acne can be done in a beauty salon or clinic. This procedure is considered safer.

To achieve the desired results, you can resort to the following methods:

1. Mechanical facial cleansing. It is carried out on the same principle as self-cleansing of the dermis. However, in a clinical setting it is possible to provide more sterile conditions.

During the procedure, the skin is exposed to various drugs to steam the dermis and remove acne. Finally, a soothing mask is applied. As a result, the pores are narrowed and do not become dirty again.

1. Vacuum cleaning. A special tube is used to carry out the procedure. Under the influence of vacuum, it cleanses the pores of dirt. This technique can only be used in simple cases with minor pore contamination.
2. Ultrasonic cleaning. This is an innovative technique that not only successfully cleanses pores and helps cope with acne, but also helps smooth out small wrinkles and provides a rejuvenating effect.

Masks used during the procedure soften the epithelium and quickly dissolve deposits. Finally, a tightening mask is applied, which tightens the pores and helps consolidate the result.

Cleansing the body

It is impossible to cope with the problem without completely cleansing the body. To have healthy skin, it is very important to eat a healthy and balanced diet. The diet should contain a sufficient amount of vitamins, minerals, proteins, and healthy fats.

At the same time, it is important to monitor the consumption of sweets and flour products. It is also worth reducing the amount of fatty foods. This will help minimize the likelihood of acne.

To do this, apply gel or milk to wash your face. Then lubricate the skin with a mixture of soda and salt and massage for 3 minutes. Leave the mixture on for another 15 minutes, rinse off any remaining residue with warm water and wipe your face with toner.

A bodyagi mask will also help cope with the problem. This is a potent composition that provides deep cleansing of the dermis. The product should not be used by those with inflamed and sensitive skin.

To get a useful product, you need to mix bodyaga powder and hydrogen peroxide with a concentration of 3%. Apply the resulting composition to the skin and leave for 15 minutes. After the specified time, you should wash your face and apply moisturizer to your face.

Black clay also has excellent cleansing properties. To get good results, a mask based on this product should be used in courses of 3-4 sessions.

Treatment of the consequences of cosmetic procedures

• wipe the skin with 2% salicylic alcohol or chlorhexidine, you can use Miramistin;
• make 15-minute masks with white or blue clay every day, diluting them with water to a thin sour cream;
• apply a thin layer of Levomekol, Triderm ointment or synthomycin emulsion;
• avoid being in the heat, playing sports, drinking alcohol and spicy foods;
• Do not try to squeeze out pimples, as this provokes the development of the inflammatory process and its transformation into an infectious one.

If problematic elements do not appear locally, but cover a large area, or ulcers appear, you should go to a dermatologist. You may have to be treated not only with external agents, but also take antibiotics or antiviral drugs.

The answer is here. There are quite a few salon and home methods for cleaning skin. To choose the best option, you should consult your doctor.

When to expect results

Pale and faint spots left after acne on the face disappear on their own as the epidermis is renewed at the cellular level. There are no traces of them, depending on the body’s ability to regenerate, after 5-10 days.

• reasons for the appearance of dark spots;
• age and general health (affect the rate of regeneration);
• skin type, absence of problems with blood microcirculation;
• the correctness of the chosen treatment method.

Benefits of salon cleaning

Beauty salons use various marketing tricks to attract visitors. They advertise their services widely and often attribute non-existent effects to them. But facial cleansing performed by a professional cosmetologist is still preferable to homemade masks.

Salons have different methods of steaming before the procedure. For cleansing, only water baths with a decoction of medicinal plants can be used at home. The process of carrying out such a procedure does not always take into account all the rules. The salon will determine the visitor’s skin type, characteristics and nature of the rash. Only after this will they recommend the most effective steaming method - mini-saunas, vaporizer, paraffin masks.

Professional cleaning ensures an optimal level of sterility.

Beauty salons seeking to maintain and expand their loyal customer base must use an instrument sterilizer. Before the procedure, the cosmetologist will treat additional materials and hands with an antiseptic.
