A well-groomed face, hair and body are the hallmark of every woman. At the same time, the presentable appearance will depend on the cosmetic procedures that are performed daily.
Aesthetic cosmetology is a field of cosmetology that aims to maintain youth and fight the signs of aging. Medical centers and beauty salons provide such services.
Of course, rejuvenation procedures can be done at home, but it is better to consult a specialist. Here, all aesthetic procedures for skin rejuvenation are carried out strictly according to the prescription of a dermatologist-cosmetologist. If you rejuvenate regularly, you can look much younger than your age.

The modern pace is not always able to give women the opportunity to find time to maintain their youth and beauty. Not all home procedures can remove fine wrinkles or tighten the oval of the face. In these cases, you need to turn to professionals for help. Aesthetic cosmetology includes non-surgical therapy.

- Bio-reinforcement.
- Contour plastic.
- Plasmolifting.
- Lifting the thread.
- Mesotherapy.
- Biorevitalization.
- Chemical peels.
- Lip augmentation and correction.
- Correction of wrinkles.
- Face lifting.

Characteristics of injection techniques
The techniques were developed on the basis of removing microdoses of certain agents or cocktails from them in the epidermis to a depth of between 1, 5 and 6 mm. For such injections, syringes with thin short needles or a special apparatus - a mesoscooter - are used.
Vitamins, amino acids, hyaluronic acid, botox, enzymes and natural ingredients are used. This modern technology is a good alternative to plastic surgery. Medicines act on problem areas. Thanks to this, in a short time, without incisions with the scalpel, you can slightly tighten the oval of the face, eliminate wrinkles and increase the elasticity of the skin.
The injection technique is effective for rejuvenating any part of the body: décolleté and neck, face, arms, hips, as well as for shaping the body in general. The first result can be seen after 1 - 2 procedures. The course is 8 to 10 sessions.
General description of mesotherapy
Some cocktails are injected under the skin with a fine needle. When these substances arrive in the problem area, they begin to stimulate the production of elastin and collagen, triggering a slower metabolism and improving blood circulation.
In this case, the selection of the drug should be carried out individually for each patient, taking into account age-related changes, body fat, the presence of stretch marks and the general condition of the skin.
Mesotherapy can effectively address the following problems:
- Hair loss.
- Dehydration and dryness of the dermis.
- Cellulite
- Swelling.
- Manifestations of post-acne and acne.
- Stretch marks and scars.
- Pigmentation.
- Burns.
This technique has no age limit and discomfort is minimized. The effect after the procedure persists for quite a long time.
Contraindications for the procedure are:
- Pregnancy.
- Diseases of the blood vessels and blood.
Biorevitalization for skin rejuvenation
This activity is based on the introduction of hyaluronic acid into the skin. With age, its amount in the body decreases. As a result, the first signs of withering appear: dryness, expression lines, dull complexion, decreased elasticity of the dermis and skin tone.
The biorevitalization technique is somewhat similar to mesotherapy: an anesthetic gel is applied to clean skin, after which the cosmetologist makes a series of injections. The procedure is recommended for all areas of the body. A positive result can be seen after the first session, in the next two weeks, the effects will intensify.
After the entire course of the procedures, the patient gets rid of deep wrinkles, the skin of the face tightens, acquiring a healthy appearance and natural radiance. The result after such a cosmetic event lasts 24 months.
Contraindications to the procedure:
- Oncological diseases.
- Inflammation at the injection site.
- Pregnancy.
- Blood clotting problems.
Botox for wrinkle correction
The main reason for the appearance of wrinkles on the face is active facial expressions, the manifestation of emotions. The wrinkle correction procedure is based on blocking neuromuscular impulses. For this, the active ingredient Botox is used, which is a low-level botulinum toxin toxin. This drug cannot completely rid a woman of wrinkles, but for six months the muscles of the upper face lose their mobility.
Thanks to professional correction with the help of Botox, you can smooth the skin and at the same time maintain natural facial expressions. The dosage for the procedure should be selected individually, taking into account the patient's initial data.
The technique is as follows: with a fine needle, the agent is injected into areas with mobile wrinkles, for example, the forehead, eyebrow arch, corners of the eyes. The duration of the procedure is not more than 15 minutes. During the first two weeks after this event, it is not recommended to visit the solarium and sauna.

Correction of facial contours with fillers
A filler is a gel produced on the basis of hyaluronic acid. With the help of him, the subcutaneous space of wrinkles is filled. Depending on the initial state of the facial contour, the practitioner selects the type of filler for the patient. At the same time, mimic wrinkles are filled with a light texture in the upper layer of the epidermis. Deep wrinkles can be removed with gels that have a thick consistency only in the middle layers.
The duration of such an event is from 30 to 40 minutes on an outpatient basis. For convenience, application anesthesia is applied. In the process of shaping the oval, a professional with a fine needle injects the gel locally under the folds.
Fillers are unable to cause an allergic reaction and no traces of injections remain. For several hours after such a correction, a slight redness may be observed in the drug administration area. The result of such a cosmetological event lasts from 10 to 12 months. It dissolves on its own without causing any discomfort.

Lip augmentation and remodeling
To restore the lips, giving them back their previous shape, or to simulate a new one, a gel based on hyaluronic acid is used. Thanks to the use of a filler, the necessary volume is created, the contours are made more expressive, the water molecules are attracted, saturating the dermis with the necessary moisture.
Before the start of the augmentation or correction procedure, an anesthetic ointment is applied to the lips, after 30 minutes the lips are wiped with a napkin, and the specialist proceeds to inject the gel.
The patient feels no pain, but slight redness and swelling may persist for 2 days. For the first week after the procedure, it is not recommended to visit the solarium and sauna, touch and rub the surface of the lips.

- The patient is injected with purified plasma into problem areas to stimulate regenerative function. This substance begins to cause an increase in the release of collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin, which are responsible for the elasticity and youth of the skin.
