How happy are the young people who do not think about what lifting is! In principle, they say that it’s not worth thinking about this until the age of 45, but everyone has their own genetic code, according to which the skin withers not according to a clear schedule, but as “recorded” in the DNA. That is, this can happen in 30 years, and in 50 - to whom as much as luck.
Modern cosmetology and plastic surgery have a rich arsenal of techniques for returning former youth and freshness. Something was left for modern beauties from grandmothers, who also did not want to grow old and delayed the period of withering, as they could - mainly by natural means.
Methods from plastic surgeons
Radical and not very facelift surgeries in clinics, according to surgeons, are carried out in batches. Women who decide to lie under a scalpel, as a rule, are well aware of what lifting is in a hospital, and do not see an alternative to it.
Usually, surgery is performed by women who are of advanced age (over 50 years old) who have long lost their face contours and who need radical intervention, since the result cannot be achieved with creams or masks made from egg white. In the case of deep wrinkles and a lift, a deep one is needed.
But patients under the age of 40 years who want to renew skin elasticity and “rejuvenate” by 10-15 years in a few days also drop in at specialists.
In clinics, young patients are offered a mini-lift - an effective way, after which a long rehabilitation is not required. And there is no sign of interference either - small scars are well masked behind the ears.
To smooth wrinkles in certain areas, use the endoscopic method - sensing. The procedure is almost painless.
Youth bring radio waves
Beauticians offer an innovative and gentle method for restoring youthful skin, as opposed to "bloodthirsty" surgical intervention. At the same time, they argue that the efficiency of the radio frequency method is superior to any plastic. Since the operation in any case involves the removal of epidermal particles, which, although it tightens the skin, does not affect the change in its condition, it remains dry, thinned, flabby.
Another thing is RF lifting: radio waves are able to stimulate collagen fibers, forcing them to keep the skin in good shape and “comply” with the necessary, even, dermal pattern.
In addition to rejuvenation, with the help of the radio frequency method, acne and scars are eliminated.
Have you turned thirty already?
No plastic surgeon will take responsibility for surgery if the patient is less than thirty years old. There are only a few people at such a young age who suffer from withered skin, and the lifting procedure can be done only as an exception if there is an urgent need for it. The rest is subject to a strict rule: so far no changes have occurred in the production of collagen by the skin - no operations. And other, non-surgical, methods are undesirable.
The lifting procedure involves the activation of cells that produce the main protein material, "holding" the shape of the face. And if you start to make collagen develop even more actively in its already active stage, then the result may turn out to be completely opposite to what was expected - having spent strength, the skin will begin to fade earlier and faster, and then you will have to decide on laser lifting, and, possibly, scalpel surgery skin tightening.
What cosmetics to choose for lifting?
It all depends on the goal: if you need to significantly and permanently tighten a slightly flabby skin, it is recommended to use products with the effect of deep lifting. Plus some reserve of patience and time.
Creams, masks, deep exposure serums work by penetrating the layers of the epidermis and promoting the accumulation of active substances that tighten and smooth the skin. To achieve the result, you need to use the funds regularly for six months to a year.
But it happens that youth is urgently needed - just here and now. For instant tightening, there is a whole line of tools that provide surface lifting. Cosmetics act in this way: with a thin film, it covers the surface of the face, hiding irregularities and giving the contour of clarity. The effect lasts for several hours.
Gymnastics for the muscles of the face
Many beauty experts argue that a better technique for restoring skin elasticity than gymnastics for the face simply can not be found. After all, what is lifting? This is a lift. No matter how to achieve it, the result is important. So why take radical measures if you can achieve the return of youth gradually and without pain, regularly performing certain movements?
The authors of various techniques offer their own sets of exercises aimed at restoring the tone of the muscles of the face.
Carolyn Cleves sings the praises of muscle resistance training, Benita Canteni advocates a mix of yoga, acupressure and meditation, Berngold Benz advises combining exercises with massage.
In any case, gymnastics will not get any worse, since this technique was practiced in ancient China and is used in modern. If anyone paid attention to the faces of Chinese women, he could not help but notice how young they look. And they don’t do anything except the Qigong exercises, which allow the skin to remain luxuriously young and fresh.
Those who have tried such gymnastics on themselves, argue that it is a fairly effective means of not even using the popular RF lifting.
Before you begin the exercises ...
Gymnastics for the face is one of the most affordable methods of rejuvenation, used at home. But it’s also the most difficult one, because it requires patience and self-discipline - qualities that most people have in short supply.
In addition to the fact that classes must be held regularly and wait for the result for weeks (although a few weeks is not such a deadline), you must also follow the rules that are common to any of the lifting techniques:
- Before exercise, be sure to cleanse your face with lotion, after performing the complex, wash again and apply a nourishing cream.
- Regularity is a basic requirement. No days off and no “respite” for the day.
- Perform lifting gymnastics in the morning, so it gives maximum benefit.
- Fix the skin and muscles, hold with your fingertips, but in no case stretch.
Those who have the patience and perseverance to achieve results in this way argue that gymnastics is the best home face lift.
This is not difficult
A few simple exercises to restore the contour of the face and skin elasticity. It is enough to spend 10-20 minutes on their implementation and not quit classes halfway:
- “Ferocious lion” - open your mouth as wide as possible, extend your tongue as far as possible, roll your eyes up. Keep the muscles in this state for 1 minute. Repeat 2-3 times.
- “Neck, lips, jaws” - throwing your head back, fold your lips with a tube and stretch them up. Hold for a few seconds. Repeat 2-3 times.
- “Return of the contour” - inflate the cheeks and roll the air from left to right and from top to bottom. Repeat 10 times.
- “Antilap” - to get rid of “crow's feet”, gently press the skin in the outer corners of the eyes, gently pull it to the side, while squinting.
Lifting around the eyes should always be done with extreme caution, given the tenderness and thinness of the skin in this area.
Rejuvenation masks
To arrange a mini-beauty salon at home and restore your face, you need to get skin tightening products. They can be either purchased or self-made.
If masks and creams are made from natural ingredients - this is a complete guarantee of their absolute harmlessness. Among manufacturers, the brand “One hundred recipes of beauty” is called the most conscientious for the implementation of the item of naturalness of funds. Lifting with honey, sea buckthorn oil and a vitamin complex from A to E - perhaps this is exactly what your tired skin requires.
If there is a general distrust of any manufacturers, try to prepare the mask yourself. Everything you need for her can be found in any refrigerator or bought in the market.
Protein mask
The most popular home remedy derived from egg white. It has an excellent tightening effect, an analogue of collagen, which also applies to proteins.
Whipped raw protein into the foam, apply to the skin and hold for 20 minutes. Wash off with warm water.
Honey
Take a teaspoon of liquid honey and potato starch, mix and dilute the mixture with lemon juice (a couple of teaspoons).
Keep on skin for 15 minutes.
Pea
A tablespoon of pea flour (you can buy ready-made or obtained from dry peas, chopped it in a blender) mix with sour cream to a cream.
Keep on face until dry - about 20 minutes.
This mask is good not only for its tightening effect, but also because you do not need to apply a nourishing cream after it, because sour cream is an excellent alternative to the latter.
No matter how good the masks are, they are not able to defeat a double chin or ugly bryl. In this case, to help masks and gymnastics, you must also connect a special apparatus for lifting.
Contraindications
What is lifting at home? By and large, this is just regular skin care, not allowing it to age. It is necessary to start caring for a person according to a special lifting program, having noticed the first age-related changes - usually they do not happen before a person turns 30 years old.
But even the most harmless lifting masks, not to mention ultrasonic lifting or other expensive professional methods, have a number of contraindications:
- too young age;
- obesity;
- the presence on the skin of the face of open wounds and sores;
- skin or vascular disease;
- intolerance to one or more components of the mask.
What to do if one of these items is present, and a lift is necessary?
There is a way: lifting with the help of cold. The banal pieces of ice from the freezer sometimes give an amazing rejuvenating effect, causing the skin cells to shrink and expand, activating the blood circulation.
