Aesthetic modeling of the face and body is resorted to for various reasons. Someone is not satisfied with natural data, someone has age-related changes, and someone got injured, which ruined his appearance. There are many ways to do this now. Each of them has its pros and cons.
Face modeling
Generally speaking, this is a change and correction of objects located on the face. In a more accessible language, this is a set of procedures for changing the appearance and rejuvenation of the face, which is aimed at changing the contour of the face, the shape of the nose, eyes and cheekbones. Modeling of the face and body can be carried out without injection methods:
- Massage.
- Manual therapy.
- Makeup.
Injection:
- Fillers.
- Hyaluronic acid.
- The injections of Botox.
- Lipofilling.
Surgical:
- Facelift.
- Rhinoplasty
- Blepharoplasty.
- Removing lumps of Bish.
- Bulhorn.
- The introduction of frame threads under the skin.
- Browlift.
- Kantoplasty.
- Cantopexy.
- Liposuction
Naturally, the most radical changes come from surgical methods. Only with their help you can change the appearance beyond recognition. But with the help of injections and massages, you can maintain a young face shape for a long time.
Manual therapy
The basis of the chiropractor’s work is to work with the spine and body of the patient only with the help of hands. Do not confuse manual therapy and massage. Massage is designed to relieve muscle tone, and manual therapy - to disperse the lymph and direct its flows in the right direction. It should be practiced by a person with a medical background who knows perfectly the human anatomy.
The main focus of this technique on the treatment and correction of diseases of the musculoskeletal system and internal organs. However, using this lymphatic drainage technique, you can save a person from edema caused by local fluid congestion. In this way, you can make the oval and contours clearer, which will greatly affect the appearance for the better. Also, with the help of manual therapy, you can make the stomach more flat, remove uneven skin and tighten muscles. This type of procedure is called "aesthetic manual face modeling."
Massage
This method has proven itself as a prophylaxis for skin aging. Massages are of the following types:
- Relaxing.
- Sports.
- Therapeutic.
- Anti-cellulite.
- Modeling.
The latter is designed to tighten the contours of the face and body. Facial massage modeling is performed in several ways:
- Spanish technology Enrique Garcia.
- Italian by technology Deborah Brichi.
- Moroccan.
- French technology Pascal Kosh.
You can start modeling your face with massage from the age of 30 as a prophylaxis of signs of aging, because it is from this age that lymph and fluid begin to stagnate in the tissues due to muscle spasm. This provokes new wrinkles and sagging contour. According to reviews, after a course of facial massage, the skin looks more radiant, and the contour really does slightly tighten. This method has practically no contraindications.
Modeling creams
Do not discount creams for modeling face contours. They will not give an instant effect, but as a measure to maintain youth, they will fit perfectly. Disciplined daily face care brings good results. Modeling, or lifting effect, is achieved using the following components in creams:
- Lipolytics that burn fat locally, such as phosphatidylcholine.
- Stem cells - activate the synthesis of collagen and elastin.
- Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid helps in deep hydration.
- Vitamin C is an antioxidant, a substance that prevents the oxidation of the skin.
- Coenzyme Q10 is an antioxidant.
- Peptides - a protein formula that is designed to strengthen cell connections.
- Carnauba wax tightens the skin instantly.
- Microdoses of insect venoms cause an effect similar to the action of botulinum toxin.
Many brands are developing their complexes, the composition of which they keep secret. The cost of really working modeling face creams usually starts from 5 thousand rubles.
Makeup Correction
Do not underestimate the help of makeup. Any girl can slightly correct her appearance with the help of cosmetics, and professionals in this matter can do real miracles. The fashion for aggressive contouring was introduced by Kim Kardashian, laying out her transformations in social networks.
The secret to this face contouring is simple: if you brighten something, it will become larger, and if you darken, it will become smaller. By applying color correctors in the right parts of the face, you can pretty much change its shape. They are in any line of professional makeup. The colors for each woman fit their own. Remember, liquid correctors will look brighter on the face than dry ones. They can change the nose beyond recognition, make the face contour different, even “draw cheekbones” where the girl has puffy cheeks.
But do not forget that aggressive facial modeling with makeup looks perfect only in the photo and from afar. Nearby, this whole “ton of makeup” will be visible to the naked eye.
Fillers
The purpose of this procedure is to fill the voids with fillers. The introduction of hyaluronic acid, but with a more viscous and dense structure, can also be attributed to face modeling with fillers. The most popular drugs for this purpose are as follows:
- Teosyal Ultimate.
- Perlane
- Surgiderm.
- Juvederm Voluma.
Fillers are introduced into the subcutaneous fat layer, which is thinning over the years. The procedure is done under local anesthesia for about 20 minutes. The effect lasts about a year. Fillers can not only fill wrinkles, but also increase the cheekbones, raise the nose, sharpen the chin.
Lipofilling can be attributed to the same type of correction. This is an injection instead of fat fillers. It is taken from a client from some parts of the body.
Hyaluronic acid
Most of this substance is known for its cosmetic effect on lip augmentation. But it is also used to model the face. Hyaluronic acid has the property of attracting and retaining water molecules exceeding its mass by a total volume of 700 times. This property allows you to add volume to the desired area. Knowing the anatomy of the face, this way you can change it pretty much, as well as remove the signs of aging.
Hyaluronic acid is present in the human body from birth. But in infants and children, it is produced significantly more than in the elderly. Therefore, their skin becomes so limp, dull and lifeless. Because of this, the cheeks fall over time, but if you add volume to the cheekbones, they will rise due to this.
Also, using injections with this substance, you can give the face complete symmetry, which invariably disappears with age.
Hyaluronic acid stays in the skin for about six months, and then dissolves and is completely eliminated from the body, turning into carbon dioxide and water. This is both its plus and minus.
Botox
Botulinum toxin is poison in itself. The introduction of it locally in microdoses causes temporary muscle paralysis. This property is very useful in cosmetology.
With the help of injections with drugs based on this toxin, wrinkles are often eliminated. Another area of ​​its application is face contour modeling without surgical interventions. As a result, it turns out to remove the "crow's feet" near the eyes and smooth out wrinkles on the forehead. By injecting botulinum toxin, the following effects can be achieved:
- Reduce the face in the cheek area.
- Lift the eyelids.
- Prevent the appearance of edema under the eyes.
- To remove the hypertonicity of the masticatory muscles, which entails a change in the shape of the face from square to oval.
In addition to the most popular Botox drug, there is also Dysport, Xeomin, as well as many less well-known analogues. The fact that they are less known does not mean that they are worse. But still, according to reviews, “Dysport” needs a little more in quantity.
Surgical intervention
This is a face modeling using a full-fledged operation under anesthesia, during which native tissues can be removed and its analogues inserted under the skin.
The most popular plastic surgeries are facelift and rhinoplasty. If the elimination of congenital anomalies and the consequences of injuries is not required, then rhinoplasty is not performed until 18 years of age. It costs an average of 200 thousand rubles. A facelift can be done with or without implants that replace the missing volume. If this is not necessary, then they do the usual circular facelift - ritidectomy. The price of the procedure depends on the complexity of the work (from 100 thousand rubles to 500 thousand rubles). Both types of operations are performed under complete anesthesia and last about 2 hours.
Contraindications to all plastic surgeries are as follows:
- Diseases in acute form.
- Skin diseases.
- HIV
- Oncology.
- All diseases that cause bleeding disorders.
- Infectious diseases.
In addition to rhinoplasty and facelift, they make a reduction and change in the contour of the lips, nose, eyelids, change the shape and location of the eyebrows.
Computer program for modeling
Any competent specialist, before starting the simulation, will surely find out how the changes will affect the appearance of the face as a whole. Now there are many computer programs that allow you to see all these changes before the procedure in real time on the screen.
One of the most popular programs for working with 3D-image is 3D MAX. But more convenient and professional programs have been created for plastic surgeons. One of them is Crisalix. It allows you to demonstrate to customers their new appearance. In such programs, you can see how the face or body will change if you perform such modeling manipulations with them: liposuction, injection of fillers and others. You can see the changes not only on the laptop screen in 3D, but even in 4D with the help of virtual reality glasses. To do this, you need to purchase such a program and a 3D scanner for it to scan the body or face of the patient.
Threads
The introduction of threads under the skin to create an additional skeleton that maintains the facial contour in a normal state is called reinforcement. The threads are introduced both from medical metal and from polydioxanone, which simply dissolves over time. After resorption, the threads are replaced by their own fibrous tissue and collagen fibers.
This type of oval correction is suitable only for those who do not yet have very stretched skin. The procedure itself is the prevention of such stretching. In addition to raising the oval of the face, reinforcement can achieve the elimination of the following problems:
- Nasolabial folds.
- Purse-string wrinkles.
- Wrinkles on the forehead.
After 18 years, there are no special age restrictions on the procedure, but before 30 years it does not make sense to resort to it. Up to 30 years, enough injection methods. Reinforcement is carried out under local anesthesia for about 40 minutes. Hospitalization is not required. The effect lasts for a period of 2 to 4 years, and the cost depends on the number of threads introduced. One costs about 2 thousand rubles (the price may vary in different clinics). Often, the introduction of 10 threads or more is required.
Reviews for modeling the oval of the face with the help of such threads are mostly positive. Patients note an excellent price-effect ratio.
Which method to choose
It all depends on the degree of problem that needs to be solved, and on age. It is quite enough for young girls to regularly look after themselves with cosmetics, and a little later add massages and peels to the cosmetologist's care. After 30 years, you can think about more radical methods, such as injections. Closer to 35 years, many threads will help many return the girlish oval of the face only. After 40-45 years, only surgery will help in the struggle for youth.
Opinions of women
In their reviews, all users note that any facial modeling procedures last six months or a little longer, and then they need to be carried out again. This entails new financial costs. And so on until you stop. After abandoning the procedures, the skin of the face quickly acquires an age-appropriate appearance, but with the help of alternative methods (massage, masks, creams) it does not get any better. Therefore, before the very first procedure, women are advised to think about whether it will be possible to conduct such an intervention regularly twice a year.
Clients praise modeling with fillers, as well as blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty, cantoplasty.
Opinions are mixed regarding the use of threads. One came up with this procedure; others caused allergic reactions.
All women are advised to regularly look after their face and perform youth-supporting procedures (massage, the use of high-quality medical cosmetics) in order to delay the use of drastic measures.
