Hygienic facial cleansing technique (for acne, greasy plugs, blackheads, dryness, etc.)
Pigmentation, acne, acne and dryness are very common problems among both women and men. In beauty salons, they propose to competently and painlessly conduct an “operation” to eliminate all unpleasant moments on the face. This procedure has several ways to perform: from mechanical cleaning to the use of newfangled equipment.
Mechanical
The procedure for such treatment of the skin (more suitable for removing acne) is carried out using sterilized tools: Vidal needle, strainer, Uno spoon. Mechanical cleaning may be suitable for sensitive skin, as instruments do not injure the skin in the process.
After treatment with a special tonic, the skin is exposed to steam. This is done using a vaporizer or a water bath. Next, the beautician removes acne, acne and comedones. During the “operation”, the specialist disinfects the treated area and the used tool to avoid infection. When the cleansing is completed, the beautician applies a soothing mask to the face. After removing the mask, apply serum to moisturize.
Cosmetologists recommend transferring mechanical cleaning of the skin on the face to the weekend. All this is due to the fact that the skin is microdamaged and does not look the best.
Chemical
Chemical peeling is done using substances containing a certain amount of acid (salicylic, glycolic and fruit). They are suitable for different types of skin. For normal use fruit acid, for fatty - glycolic, for dry - salicylic.
The stage of hygienic cleansing of the face takes place by destroying the upper layer of the epidermis, along with this, all rashes and inflammations disappear:
- After the beautician removed makeup and prepared the skin for the procedure, he applies a mask that contains fruit acids. It will help to warm up the desired area and protect against burns.
- Then the specialist removes the mask and uses an active preparation with an acid content that eliminates dead skin cells, sebaceous plugs and acne.
- Now it's the calming mask's turn. It will narrow the pores and restore the treated skin.
- The final step in this process is the application of a special cream. The duration of facial cleansing does not take much time - about 20 minutes.
Laser
This cleaning method uses a special apparatus. Using a laser beam, it is sent to the skin. During the process, the upper layer of the epidermis is burned, and new cells begin to grow in this place. Laser cleaning consists of three main steps: preparing facial skin for the procedure (cleansing and makeup removal), short-term removal of problem areas with a laser beam, applying a soothing mask.
The reviews on hygienic cleaning of the face with a laser are as follows: it renews the cells of the skin, makes the face supple and elastic, eliminates acne, comedones and even some scars and scars.
Ultrasound
This is a modern technique for cleansing problem areas on the face using a special installation - an ultrasonic scrubber. The principle of the apparatus: ultrasonic waves have a massage effect on the skin. Thanks to this, the pores open, blood circulation improves.
Another plus: steaming the face is not required, unlike the previous methods.
Step-by-step procedure plan:
- First, a facial cleansing is carried out with a special tonic, then the beautician applies a cream.
- Pointing to the problem area of the apparatus, the specialist equips it with a cover plate and performs the process of exposure to ultrasonic waves. As a result, sebaceous ducts open and “dead” epidermal cells are removed.
- To relax the skin, the beautician applies a mask.
- Then the cream is again applied to the face.
Vacuum
This type of hygienic facial cleansing includes the function of lymphatic drainage massage. All action takes place with the help of a vacuum apparatus, which draws in the contents of the sebaceous ducts due to negative pressure.
The steps in this method are as follows:
- Makeup remover and facial cleansing.
