Are age-related changes in the skin becoming more noticeable? The skin loses elasticity and firmness, becomes dry, pale, the first wrinkles appear? This is familiar to all women after 30-35 years. But this is not a matter of despair, going under the surgeon's knife or injecting painful injections into the face.
Cold plasma rejuvenation is a unique, painless method of skin regeneration that allows you to get rid of signs of aging, wrinkles, age spots, spider veins and other skin problems.
Let's see what cold plasma is, how it works, and what kind of result you can really expect.
cold plasma - a fantasy or a new word in cosmetology?
Cold plasma is an ionized gas composed of charged and completely neutral particles formed under the influence of electric current. In cold plasma, the percentage of charged particles does not exceed 1%, and the gas temperature is only 30-40 degrees. The active factors are neutral gas, active molecules, charged particles, heat and low ultraviolet radiation.
The force of exposure to cold plasma is sufficient to obtain an excellent anti-aging effect, but not enough to harm the skin.
Cold plasma is a completely safe procedure, it has anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and bactericidal effects.
Cold plasma rejuvenation is a procedure performed using a device that operates on the basis of plasma flow. The device is a special pen with a replaceable tip.
The essence of the procedure is that when the skin is heated to 40 ° C, collagen and elastin naturally begin to produce, which contributes to the regeneration of skin cells.
What cold plasma devices do cosmetologists use?
There are four cold plasma devices used in cosmetology:
- White BeautyMonster Medalist. This is a high frequency device with comfortable handling, made in South Korea. The model provides 8 levels of frequency and power, and you can use 36 programs together.
- Maglev Plasma Pen. This device is battery operated and has low power, which is enough to raise the eyelids, eliminate age spots, smooth wrinkles, and also tighten thin skin. The device is made in China.
- There is also a cold plasma apparatus, which is used not only in cosmetology, but also in medicine (dentistry, surgery, dermatology). This is a powerful professional machine.
- Other device includes cold plasma, contact monopolar electrocoagulation and microcoagulation. Such a device is also used to smooth wrinkles, remove moles, papillomas, tattoos, treat acne, correct scars and scars. The device operates at low, medium and high levels of exposure.
Procedure
There are three simple steps to the whole renewal procedure:
- Training. The master examines your skin, talks about contraindications, cleanses the skin, applies an anesthetic ointment.
- The procedure itself. The master adjusts the device to the required power, disinfects the handpiece, and then sequentially treats all areas of the skin. The exposure time does not exceed 1 second. Finally, the skin is treated with an antiseptic agent, and then a moisturizing or nourishing cream is applied. Depending on the selected treatment area, the duration of the session can vary from 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Skin healing and restoration. At the end of the procedure, the master will tell you how to properly care for the skin. These recommendations are extremely important to follow strictly!
To make a full recovery, you need to do the following:
- treat the skin with antiseptic and moisturizer for a week;
- refrain from visiting the bath, sauna, pool, solarium for a week;
- use sunscreen, as little as possible in the sun;
- do not use scrub, refrain from peeling for 10 days;
- refuse decorative cosmetics for up to 10 days.
The number of sessions depends on the condition and characteristics of your skin, age, number of problem areas. Sessions can range from 1 (for young skin with barely age-related changes) to 7-10 (for deep wrinkles, scars, acne, etc. ). Procedures are not performed more than once a month. The maximum effect of the procedure is noted 4 months after completion of the course.
