"At 50, you have the look you deserve, " said Coco Chanel.
What do you deserve?
We will tell you how to do anti-aging procedures properly and safely to say at the age of 50 that you deserve to be admired for your reflection and to catch an admiring gaze.
It is better to lay the foundation for natural rejuvenation in youth and after 30 years of training it is already a mandatory part of self-care.
What is anti-aging (rejuvenating) treatment
Every woman has about an equal chance of getting one of two by the age of 50: a "peach" face or a "baked apple" face. Preserved youth or fatigue.
Yes, there are insurmountable factors that can leave you with extra years like genetics and hormonal disorders. But often it all depends on how you live: what you eat, what you feel, how active you are, how you take care of yourself. And rejuvenating procedures on the first violin in this youth orchestra.
Mankind has been trying to invent the "elixir of youth" for thousands of years. What was not used: hallucinogenic drinks, eating dried snakes and toads, young girls breathing, moxibustion.
With the development of science we have gained a rationale for what helps and what hinders the prolongation of youth.
Harmful:Food waste, stress, ultraviolet radiation, alcohol, cigarettes. . .
healthy:Movement, positive emotions, regular and high quality intimate life, vitamins, unsaturated fats. . .
And, of course, anti-aging treatments. Their number is large and a lot of money is being made on them. Hundreds of billions of dollars (! ) Are earned every year on all kinds of "youth injections", hardware, yarn, cosmetic surgery.
Yes, now these are not flying agarics with snakes, but "pharmacological discoveries", "technical inventions", "innovations" - in general, all the fruits of progress with attractive names. Botulinum therapy, mesotherapy, biorevitalization, plasma lifting, contour plastics, RF-lifting, SMAS-lifting, photo rejuvenation, cryolipolysis, dermabrasion, blepharoplasty, thread lifting, fractional laser rejuvenation. . . The list goes on and on.
But, unfortunately, the real effect of modern anti-aging techniques on the body is still very poorly understood. In most cases, there is no complete scientific research that reflects the results of cosmetic interventions even for a few years, let alone in the long run.
Such studies are impossible in part because of the relative novelty of cosmetology in principle, but more importantly, they are also unprofitable. If science fixes all the results of "punitive" cosmetology, it could seriously shake up the industry.
After all, most salon procedures are fiction, the short appearance of youth behind which is hidden tissue decay.
This does not mean that facial rejuvenation is impossible. Against. There are effective techniques.
But first.
Indications for anti-aging procedures
Anti-aging procedures are mainly aimed at 30+ women. It is generally accepted that it is at this age that the skin develops from young to mature.
Although facial aging is not just a skin story. Also important: muscle tone, posture, static neck movement, mobility of the helmet, blood circulation, lymphatic drainage. In order for this whole structure to work smoothly, you need to instill the right habits from childhood.
And it is optimal to start anti-aging procedures already at the age of 20-25. After all, it is at this age that the mechanisms of aging are activated. It may not appear on the face yet, but the processes are already underway, the blood circulation is already deteriorating. And the sooner you start the negative processes in the opposite direction, the longer you will stay young.
When does anti-aging treatment become mandatory (unless, of course, you are striving for beauty)? Then, when you notice the following marks on your face:
- Loss of skin elasticity, decreased turgor,
- Facial floating contour, oval "square",
- He slipped on his cheeks and flew away,
- Wrinkles, folds, creases: from the flowering leg to the nasolabial folds;
- Angled corners of the lips and wrinkles of sadness from them,
- Bags under the eyes and swelling!
- Angled corners of the eyes and drooping upper eyelids,
- Skin darkening, age spots,
- Skin thinning, hypersensitivity.
Defects in the neck and décolleté are also added: skin rash, "Venus rings", "turkey goiter" (drops of tissue under the chin).
Cosmetological procedures for facial rejuvenation
Does the mirror remind you every time that you are no longer a girl? And I want to look cleaner, tighten and smooth everything, lift the corners of the lips, eyelids, eyebrows. Get rid of the mask of a sad and faded woman.
What should I do?
The first step that is actively taken by modern women is to come to a cosmetologist.
But we want to do everything right, without harming beauty, youth and health.
Therefore, let’s figure out how the vast majority of cosmetology techniques work.
You may be surprised by the truth, but cosmetology is:
- Imaginary youth.99% of procedures give a short-term rejuvenating effect (if any). However, the causes of aging are not eliminated, but aggravated. When the effect subsides within a few months of the cosmetic intervention, the face will look older than before the procedure.
- Deterioration of tissue condition.The vast majority of invasive and technical cosmetic procedures are aggressive invasions from the outside and a violation of the body's self-regulation. ᲡTress. This effect is contrary to physiology. The body is forced to defend itself, to expend resources. This leads to a series of negative processes. Suffers from everything that facial youth relies on: skin, muscles, blood flow, lymphatic drainage.
- Health risks.Most cosmetic procedures (injections, threads, surgeries, microneedling, dermabrasion) violate the integrity of the body membrane. Some (laser, radio waves, light, thermoses) create internal burns. Therefore, complications often arise after procedures. Severity ranges from infection and inflammatory tissue necrosis (death), to nerve palsy, to speech dysfunction, to blindness, and so on. Sh.
- A blow to beauty.The result of cosmetic procedures usually has little to do with beauty. Swollen waxy faces with irregular proportions and distorted plots - we see this victim of "punishment" cosmetology in every corner. From Botox the face loses the ability to express emotions, becomes motionless, often develops asymmetry (one eyebrow falls on the eyes, the lips fall in one corner). "Armature" made of threads can bulge, shine, move, collect in the form of lumps. These are just a few examples. There are many aesthetic side effects.
- Attitude.Sit on a cosmetologist needle and scalpel. After all, when the effect of the procedure disappears (and it happens very quickly), then the face becomes tired and wrinkled, "flowing down". And you run to the bracket again. From time to time the effect weakens. The resulting face turns into an ugly mask with inhuman features.
- High priceOne cosmetic procedure is very expensive. Most techniques involve exposure to courses. Sometimes it is necessary to go through 10-15 sessions of the course, and after six months repeat everything again. Moreover, cosmetologists often promote complex rejuvenation, i. e. using a variety of techniques. As a result, the "investment" turns out to be colossal in the youth. Be prepared to pay a huge amount for life.
Types of modern anti-aging facial procedures
There are three main ways to care for aging skin in salons: piercing, cutting or machine.
The first two variants are accompanied by a violation of the integrity of the body membrane, ie it is an invasive technique. The technique most often affects the inner layers of tissues without damaging the epidermis.
Each of these areas is represented by different specific techniques. The main thing:
- Injection technique:Botulinum therapy (Botox), contour plastic (fillers), mesotherapy, biorevitalization, plasmolifting.
- Surgical equipment:Flossing, retidectomy, blepharoplasty.
- Hardware equipment: Laser, radio waves, ultrasound, light, cold.
And none of these methods are friendly to our body. It is always an aggressive invasion from the outside, which causes harm, stress.
Is there a principle of influence somewhere that takes into account the interests of our physiology? No.
Judge for yourself what options are offered.
- Paralyze some muscles and increase the load on others- Botox injections.
- Stretch the skin with fillers, which will also impede normal blood flow and tissue drainage- Fillers.
- Damage the skin with a needle everywhere, turning it into one continuous healing wound:Mesotherapy and biorevitalization (cosmetics are applied to the face with hundreds of injections), plasma lifting (hundreds of injections of the patient's own plasma), microneedling (the face is "rolled" in blood with a needle roller or a "sealed" needle stamp).
- Get rid of excess skin and fat- Ritectomy (surgical facelift), blepharoplasty (eyelid correction).
- "Sew" the face with absorbent or permanent fibers, which leads to fibrous degeneration of healthy collagen. - Lifting the thread.
- Remove skin layers such as emerald- Dermabrasion, laser surface restoration, chemical peeling.
- "Burn" the inner layers of the skin- Laser, ultrasound, radio waves, light.
- Destroy fabrics by freezing- Cryolipolysis.
Where is the youth here? Nowhere. Only aggravation of fatigue.
ᲠHow should it be?
Anti-aging treatment at home
Let's define what we need:
- safety.There is no danger to health and beauty.
- A pronounced and lasting result and not a short-term appearance of rejuvenation.This requires eliminating the causes of aging, starting the natural mechanisms of rejuvenation, and not disguising the problem.
Only natural rejuvenation techniques can give us this. Exercise, gymnastics and self-massage - this is what will help us lose 10-15 years from the face and maintain this result for years.
This, of course, is not a cosmetologist's "magic" syringe. Do not wait for instant "miracles". Here you need regularity and consistency. You need to do it every day, for 15-30 minutes a day.
But after a few weeks you will notice the results and after a month they will become apparent to those around you.
In order to look good, make natural rejuvenation techniques a healthy habit of your life.
Plus also the fact that you take care of yourself. This means that you:
- You start to understand your body better,
- You do not have to spend a fortune to grow old.
- You can do the exercises at any convenient time and do not fit anyone.
What will you achieve?
- Restores blood and lymph flow. You will relieve spasms that impede the movement of blood and lymph.
- Improves the supply of nutrients and oxygen to cells; You are activating unnecessary and harmful "pumping" of everything from them.
- Restore healthy tone and natural length to the muscles of the face and neck. This is necessary to ensure that the skin absorbs blood better and does not stretch the shortened, stretched muscles.
- You will improve collagen synthesis in the dermis, "loosen" the old sticky fibers and rejuvenate the skin.
Moreover, the exercises should be performed not only on the face.
What is the best way to move?
- Start by adjusting your posture.Often the root of all age-related problems is the face. Work on your back, shoulders, neck, aponeurosis - Remove all clamps and ropes that prevent full blood flow, nourish the skin and work the facial muscles. Try some basic techniques: We lay on the roller.Stretch and relax the neck using a "frame"
- Go for an accurate study of age-related defects on the face.Weakness of the skin, wrinkles on the forehead, wrinkles between the eyebrows, nasolabial folds, wrinkles around the mouth, blossoming ankles, bags under the eyes, drooping eyelids, drooping corners of the lips, swelling, floating contour, flies, double chin - all this is possible. We do exercises and self-massage. We work with our hands, vacuum jars, dry brush, gouache scraper. Try some "Gold Collection" exercises:We open our eyes, remove the covered eyelids.Exercise "Liposhlep" against wrinkles and restore the volume of the lips.Intraoral massage for nasolabial folds.Facial massage with vacuum cups
Contraindications
Naturally, cosmetic procedures, which, in principle, contradict the physiology, have quite a lot of contraindications.
Natural rejuvenation techniques are a completely different matter. Almost anyone can use them.
Of course, you have to use common sense. For example, if you have large blemishes or a skin infection, then you should refrain from self-massage (topically or until healing). At the same time, it does not interfere with gymnastics.
ᲛImportant! Even pregnant and lactating women can run a beauty marathon. You just have to skip a few individual exercises - they will be flagged.
You can ask your osteopath doctor who is accompanying a course on your diagnosis and the compatibility of marathon exercises.
How to prepare for anti-aging procedures
Among other things, salon procedures are inconvenient. For example, they usually need to be prepared in advance.
- Do not take active sunbaths for half a month or a month.
- Avoid salty and spicy foods for a few days.
- Drink less fluids.
- Do not drink alcohol, do not smoke.
- Follow certain drug prohibitions.
- Avoid intense physical activity.
As we can see, some prohibitions (drinking, sports, drugs) are against the body. But even if the restrictions are beneficial, they are still additional difficulties.
Even in the case of natural rejuvenation, no preparation is required. Maximum use of effort is to clean the skin directly in front of the self-massage (in case of working with the skin, you will still need to apply oil or scalp). And that's all. No restrictions and disruption of the usual way of life.
Rehabilitation after the procedure
It is also important how you feel after a rejuvenating treatment.
The period of rehabilitation after surgery, injection, equipment techniques is most often painful. Bruises, bruises, scars, swelling, irritation, wounds, bruises, etc. are common. Sh.
And restrictions can be very uncomfortable for life. Taboos can be imposed on the sun, sports, makeup, bath, sauna, diet. . . Often you can not just touch the face or horizontal posture.
What about natural rejuvenation? There is simply no rehabilitation period here. The most "scary" thing that can happen is that you feel a pleasant tingling sensation due to blood flow to the treated area and minor pain in the body.
All this is a sign that the right processes are starting in the body.
Effective procedures after 30-35 years
After 30 years, the verdict is on the skin: "ripe". By this time, the metabolism of cells and the production of "building" protein is slowing down. The barrier function is weakened. Decreased moisture, turgor, elasticity.
For cosmetologists, this is the reason why new "victims" are "recruited" in the ranks of their clients. They make young and prosperous women think that it is already necessary to do chemical peels, mesotherapy or biorevitalization once every six months, use the equipment and so on. Sh.
At the slightest first wrinkle they campaign for botulinum therapy. It is likely that in the future it will be possible to avoid the appearance of deep wrinkles. But we already know that because of muscle paralysis and the collapse of the entire muscle configuration, everything will be exactly the opposite: the defects will come out prematurely.
None of this can be done.
What can you do? Massage, exercise, gymnastics. Moreover, natural rejuvenation techniques are not specialized by age. They are suitable for everyone: from students to deeply retired women.
As we have already said, they should become a mandatory program for 30+ women who take care of themselves.
Effective treatment after 40 years
After 40 years, the signs of aging are already becoming more pronounced. Wrinkles, nasolabial folds, loss of volume, flaking of the skin, blurring of the contour, flaking, sunken look. . . The skin needs lifting.
In the language of cosmetologists, this means regular injections of Botox, contour plastics (fillers), frequent mesotherapy sessions, plasma lifting, lasers, microdermabrasion, etc. Sh. It is already advisable to put threads under the skin.
There are many different procedures for you ("integrated approach"). You should visit a cosmetologist more often.
For women over the age of 40, there is only one safe and effective alternative - natural rejuvenation. We do the same exercises as at any other age.
If you started training at the age of 30, now you do not look worse than 10 years ago and probably even better. Do not stop.
Effective treatment after 50 years
During menopause (50 +/- 5 years) and after, the main blow falls on the youth. In addition to poor blood circulation, the disappearance of hormonal activity is also added.
Due to hormonal depletion, the renewal of fibroblasts - the cells in which the main components of youthful skin are formed - is inhibited. The vascular network is also regression. In general, the production of the "beauty hormone" estrogen breaks down and evaporates with it to the beauty itself.
Here the intensity and frequency of cosmetic procedures will be large. Surgical equipment will be added to numerous non-surgical equipment and prioritized right. Fabrics are cut and stretched, cut and stretched. In the most "humane" case - strengthening.
Mirror reflection At this age, if you became addicted to needles a long time ago, you will no longer like it. And it will be hard to refuse "punitive" cosmetology: it is unclear what to do next because of all this fatigue that he has created.
The recipe for 50+ women is the same: Natural Rejuvenation. it; s too late? No, it's not too late. And 70 is not too late.
And the most important thing isYoung beautiful face, healthy back and royal postureWith the simplest exercises and effective self-massage techniques, you can achieve this in just 21 days. A marathon is a unique set of simple and effective exercises and techniques designed to improve the health of the body, to start the processes of natural rejuvenation, to eliminate swelling and to alleviate muscle spasticity.
