Every woman wants to keep her youth and beauty. For the sake of this, many despair of surgical intervention, many try to tighten their faces on their own with "grandmother's" methods, while others try to achieve the expected result with a non-surgical facelift in cosmetic clinics.
Modern technologies, discoveries and developments in the field of cosmetology services allow us to offer patients a huge list of ways to combat the first wrinkles and skin aging.
So that you do not get lost in all these methods, we will present the most popular and effective methods.
A non-surgical facelift is an alternative to plastic surgery that eliminates the signs of aging.
Non-surgical lifting is carried out in various ways, the most important and common of the methods are:
- Thread lift;
- Ultrasonic lifting;
- Circular lift;
- Endoscopic lift;
- Masks.
We will analyze the advantages and features of all of the above methods.
Non-surgical thread lift and other ways to restore youth
This method has become widespread due to its action. This procedure partially smooths out the signs of aging by fixing tissues. As a result of this procedure, the muscles of the face and neck are tightened and fixed, in addition, excess fat deposits are removed.
Flabbiness disappears, the skin changes outwardly and looks healthier and younger, which visually rejuvenates by 10-15 years! Mostly threads are used by women whose age ranges from 40 to 70 years.
Thin threads made from a special material are inserted through the soft layers of the skin. The essence of this method is to hold tissues on the face that have lost their elasticity and aged over time. Microscopic protrusions are applied along the entire length of the thread at a special angle.
They allow you to group and shift soft tissues, lifting them in the right place, and then securely fix them. Basically, the duration of such a procedure takes about 20-30 minutes. After such a tightening, the skin does not need long-term rehabilitation.
Advantages of this procedure:
- Proven efficiency;
- Effective and fast result;
- No scars;
- Saving the result for 2 years.
Disadvantages:
- Cost (rather high);
- Limited spectrum of action (provides only a tightening);
- Not suitable for thin skin with a large amount of subcutaneous fat;
- Rare manifestations of pain.
Circular lift
Sagging areas of the soft tissues of the chin, neck and face are eliminated by a circular facelift, making these areas more attractive by improving the oval. The technique of performing a circular lift is very difficult, which is why this operation should be performed by a qualified and experienced surgeon.
The location of the incisions and the subsequent method of performing the operation depends on the preference of the surgeon and on the condition of the patient's face.
Basically, the surgeon makes an incision in the temporal part of the face, then goes along the natural folds, bending around the ear in front. Finishes the incision in the back of the face, thereby making postoperative scars more invisible.
After the surgeon stops the incision, he will begin to peel off the skin and muscle, while removing excess fatty deposits. After this stage is completed, muscle plastic surgery is performed, and then excess skin is removed.
Endoscopic lift
The endoscopic facelift is similar to the circular method, which also performs subtle incisions, but not in the temporal part of the face, but in the scalp.
Such an operation is not performed manually, but using special endoscopic equipment.
The duration of an endoscopic facelift is generally about 3 hours. In this case, endotracheal anesthesia or general anesthesia is used.
As a rule, after the completion of the procedure, the patients are in hospitals, under the supervision of doctors for several days.
What are the benefits of an endoscopic facelift?
- Removes vertical wrinkles on the cheeks;
- Folds and wrinkles in the forehead, bridge of the nose, necks, cheekbones and temples;
- Nasolabial folds and sagging tissues in the neck area disappear;
- The second chin disappears;
- Sagging areas disappear.
Disadvantages:
- Painful sensations for several days;
- Increased level of risk;
- You can return to your daily lifestyle after two weeks;
- Constant physical activity for 4 weeks;
- The result can be assessed only after 2 months.
Ultrasonic lifting
Ultrasonic facelift is the impact of high-precision and directed ultrasound into the deep layers of the skin, namely into the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, which is responsible for tightened facial contours and for its elasticity.
Ultrasonic lifting allows you to:
- Improve the quality of the skin to even out its relief;
- Tighten the muscles on the neck;
- Get rid of "flews" along the contour of the lower jaw;
- Tighten the skin of the face without a long rehabilitation.
The main distinguishing and positive quality of the ultrasound method is that the result can be maintained for 6-8 years. The secret of ultrasonic rejuvenation is to warm up the face before the procedure. The massage is carried out strictly along the lines, which will be further processed by ultrasonic equipment in order to ensure the most natural tension of the superficial musculoaponeurotic system.
The ultrasound method is absolutely safe and does not injure the skin, helping to avoid various burns and other long-term complications in the form of swelling.
Many women, afraid to cross the threshold of pain, use face masks for lifting, as they help to eliminate mimic wrinkles, restore elasticity, adjust the contour and smooth the skin of the face, and also improve collagen synthesis.
In women over 35 years old, the skin becomes dull and dry, loses elasticity and sags, many seek help from clinics, while others try to regain their former beauty with anti-aging masks. Take a course of masks in the clinic or try to make them yourself - it's up to you.
We offer several recipes for anti-aging masks.
- Milk mask. Add 1 egg yolk to 1 tablespoon of flour. Stir the mixture and apply on the face for 15-20 minutes. Then rinse with water, after adding lemon juice to it. This mask rejuvenates and nourishes the aging face.
- Honey mask. Mix 1 tablespoon of dark honey with ½ tablespoon of vegetable oil and 1 egg yolk. Add 7-10 drops of lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of whipped oatmeal to the mixture. The mask rejuvenates, nourishes, regulates water balance and cleanses the skin.
We wish you to stay young and vigorous in body and soul for a long time!
