Procedure procedure
First, hand disinfection is performed, after which it is necessary to scrub them. The master will apply a special emulsion that contains elastin and collagen. Thanks to them, the skin regenerates much faster. Now the hands should be immersed in a bath containing warm cosmetic paraffin, 3-5 times, until a thick layer of material forms. Skin burns do not occur from such a procedure, but its temperature becomes a couple of degrees higher, and pores begin to open. The skin begins to give off a liquid that contains toxins. It turns out a peculiar effect of the sauna. In order for the beneficial properties to penetrate as actively as possible, they put on thermal mittens and protective bags. After 15 minutes, it is necessary to remove the mittens with the mask. During this time, paraffin has already cooled down and the reverse process has occurred - the pores have narrowed, the water has been absorbed along with the beneficial substances that are in the emulsion, and the toxins have remained on the surface. Now the skin can be wiped with a warm, damp towel to remove all toxins from the surface. After that, a protective cream is applied and a hand massage is done.
