In physiotherapy, influences associated with natural processes in the body are used, such as myostimulation, UVB therapy, electrical stimulation, high and low frequency magnetic therapy, laser irradiation and ultrasound.Many of the physiotherapeutic treatment methods are used in hardware cosmetology.They are combined with active nutrition and hydration of the skin and other cosmetic procedures.
Using devices, cosmetologists achieve various effects - lifting, correcting pigmentation, treating acne and irritations, cleansing and nourishing the skin, strengthening the oval of the face.To eliminate some defects, a complex treatment is used using various cosmetic devices with different spectrums of effects.
Areas of application of devices in cosmetology
After 40 years, the skin partially loses its elastic qualities.
Creams and care products, even the most advanced ones, do not penetrate the deep layer of the skin.Cosmetics can penetrate to great depths through hardware therapy methods.Thus, the area of its application increases significantly.The skin's external indicators improve and the aging process slows down significantly.
IMPORTANT: is it possible to achieve a good effect at home with cosmetic devices?There are devices for independent use.They are effective, although they have little power and require a fairly long period of use to obtain the expected result.
Mesoporation (non-invasive mesotherapy), ultrasonic lifting and electrical stimulation are widely used for skin rejuvenation.To improve the oval shape and increase muscle tone, electromyostimulation is generally used.Other methods are used to get rid of a wide range of problems.These are, for example, age spots, scars and wrinkles, enlarged pores, weak tone of the muscles of the face and neck.

Popular cosmetic procedures using hardware equipment
Cleansing and therapeutic procedures using hardware technologies appeared relatively recently.They are constantly being improved and new devices appear.
We offer a brief overview of the most popular trends in hardware cosmetology.
Microcurrent facial therapy
According to research by European experts, stimulating the skin with a weak electrical current helps increase elastin content by 40-50 percent and collagen content by 10-12 percent.As a result of the influence of the current on the inner layers of the epidermis, accelerated cell division occurs, additionally providing them with nutrients due to improved blood flow.The amount of chemical elements inside skin cells increases.There is an increase in oxygen supply.After the procedure, creams and masks are better absorbed.To obtain significant results in improving the skin with microcurrent therapy, it is advisable to undergo a full course of several procedures.But even after the first procedure, a significant improvement in skin health is noticeable.
Hardware massage
In aesthetic cosmetology, hardware types of massage are used to improve skin parameters, increase tone and eliminate defects in the form of folds and cellulite formations.It is also actively used to lose weight and strengthen body contours.This massage, in addition to its cosmetic functions, has important healing properties.
Before self-massage, the skin is cleaned, the device must be moved along the massage lines, no more than 2-3 minutes in each place.
It is necessary to avoid touching the device in places where there are spots, papillomas or inflamed areas.The massage machine usually has different settings that can be set to the desired mode.It depends on which area of the body or face is being affected and for what purpose.Nowadays, such types of hardware massage as lymphatic drainage, vacuum, vibration and water are popular.
INFORMATION: The combination of massage and physiotherapy has given rise to methods for improving skin parameters using devices.Hardware cosmetology includes many types of facial and body procedures;In the photographs you can see the skin before and after treatment, notice the differences, pros and cons and take into account contraindications.
Some indications for aesthetic massage:
- weak skin tone, causing sagging cheeks;
- cramps, muscle spasms;
- presence of wrinkles;
- swelling;
- skin stretching;
- cellulite, excess weight.
Contraindications to such a massage may include various skin diseases, allergies and metabolic disorders.To be sure of the benefits of hardware massage procedures, it is necessary to consult a specialist doctor and, if necessary, undergo a general examination.
Darsonvalization
Initially, this method was used to stimulate blood circulation and metabolic processes in physiotherapy.Its name comes from the name of the French physicist and physiotherapist d’Arsonval.High-frequency, high-voltage alternating current is delivered to areas of the body through glass tubes.In cosmetology, this procedure has become popular due to its accessibility, lack of side effects and simplicity.
The device is small and quite effective not only in beauty salons, but also at home.With this device you can quickly get rid of pimples, acne and inflammation.It is also possible to maintain beautiful skin by promptly treating small wrinkles, enlarged pores and eliminating excess oil or dryness.These devices cope well with spider veins and skin regeneration.Under the influence of high-frequency current, blood circulation increases and metabolic processes in the skin are activated.
Facial myostimulation
The myostimulation procedure can be carried out both in beauty salons and aesthetic medicine centers, and at home.The device applies a series of electrical impulses to muscles (via electrodes on the skin).Muscle contractions resulting from stimulation by the device can be correlated with contractions during maximal physical activity.This helps to significantly improve skin tone and smoothness.Typically, the following steps are required to use the machine:
- cleanse the skin of cosmetics;
- define the necessary duration and intensity;
- installation of electrodes on the face or body, they must be symmetrical;
- activate the device's active mode;
- move the electrodes to the next area;
- use of cosmetics for care.
INFORMATION: myostimulators are fixed to the desired part of the body and do not require manual manipulation, which allows you to do other things or just relax during the procedures.Most muscle stimulators run on batteries.There are some contraindications to its use, so it is advisable to first consult a specialist before starting use.
Microdermabrasion
This is a method of polishing leather with abrasives.It is based on the ability of abrasive particles to penetrate the skin and exfoliate the keratinized parts of the skin.Abrasive microparticles have good penetration properties.Exfoliation (skin resurfacing) frees up space for greater skin tissue growth.Currently, two types of abrasive substances are used in devices: diamond dust and aluminum dioxide.After treatment, any remaining abrasive dust is removed with a vacuum.
Cryotherapy
This method depends on the body's response to cooling.After a strong short-term drop in temperature, several hormones are released into the skin, including endorphins, adrenaline, immunity and increased blood supply.Nowadays, several different types of hardware cryotherapy methods are practiced in beauty salons.Here are some of them:
- hardware cryospray: liquid nitrogen (from -180 to -50 degrees) is sprayed through a special device;
- cryoelectrophoresis: frozen chemicals are injected under the skin using electrical impulses;
- cryogenic chambers: chambers with cold air and nitrogen (-130 degrees) for the entire body.
Galvanotherapy
These devices are based on the use of weak electrical impulses (40-50mA) of low voltage.Its effect causes an increase in the content of histamine, serotonin and other active components in the subcutaneous layer.In cosmetic technologies, devices for iontophoresis and descaling are used.The first type of device transmits current to the surface of the skin through specialized accessories.It is used to treat rosacea, acne, pigmentation and smooth facial wrinkles.The second type of device is designed for cleaning.Combines the use of alkaline solutions with galvanization.Loosening the skin helps to deeply degrease it and eliminate dead scales.
The effectiveness of hardware peeling
Hardware peeling, unlike manual peeling, allows you to achieve the effect of youth and freshness in less time.Different types of peelings with devices cleanse and help nourish all layers of the epidermis.Cleansing occurs deeply and involves the cellular level.Devices for other purposes, for example devices for ultrasound and laser liposuction, operate on the principles of tissue cleansing and stimulation.These methods are used to remove excess weight and fatty tissue deposits.Laser peeling not only removes the top layer of the epidermis, but also increases blood circulation and muscle tone during irradiation with light waves.Innovative laser resurfacing using fractional lasers for very deep cleaning causes virtually no damage.
INFO: The category of hardware procedures in aesthetic medicine, in contrast to the invasive category, is less complex, more painless and non-traumatic in use.It is perfect for anyone who supports minimal intervention in the body's natural processes.
There are hardware stripping for home use.In particular, ultrasonic peeling devices clean the skin, remove dead particles, thereby stimulating the processes of metabolism and new cell growth.For enlarged pores, they help to narrow them.The result of the procedure is an increase in the smoothness of the skin and a change in its color to warmer, cooler tones.Also common for home devices are accessories for mechanical and vacuum peeling.
More complex types of peelings are performed by specialists in salons and aesthetic medicine centers.
Rejuvenation without surgical intervention became available with the advent of hardware types of cosmetology.This area of aesthetic medicine constantly offers interesting programs for appearance care.New devices are being created, old ones are being improved taking into account modern technologies.Many devices use a complex of several types of influences at once: vacuum, ultrasonic, electrical.For example, in a method such as lymphatic drainage.The procedure improves the movement of lymph, as a result of which swelling is reduced, the body's metabolic processes are restored and blood circulation is increased.
In hardware cosmetology, high-tech devices are used, created specifically for facial care procedures, the effectiveness of which is confirmed by numerous photos before and after use, the advantages of this method significantly outweigh the disadvantages and there are few contraindications.Traditional beauty products (creams or masks) in combination with the latest technologies provide excellent results and help you look harmonious and young.
