The decollete area is one of the "poorest", relatively speaking, in terms of the degree of grooming and care of the vast majority of women. Cosmetologists see this very well in each of their procedures: if even at the age of 30-35 +/- years the skin is elastic, smooth, without wrinkles and age spots, then closer to 40 it ages instantly, quickly and dramatically. It loses softness, elasticity and tone, looseness and folds appear, in particular the longitudinal length between the mammary glands. Likewise, the area between the neck and the collarbone. And the question of rejuvenation procedures becomes very relevant.
It is up to the neckline in women who very often "just don't reach the hands". If the neck still gets its share of care cream - and not least the "extra" for the face, which has to be "smeared" somewhere, very few fall under it. Body cream - to be honest - not all women use it. Yes, and in a beauty salon, most of the procedures are performed on the face - the neck is involved in them, but, unfortunately, the décolleté very rarely gets its portion of pleasure. The legs, especially the heels, are also much more nourished with nourishing creams.
The beauticians, sitting on their work chair, see this sad image perfectly: it opens to our eyes in all its glory. And they often combine facial procedures with décolleté skin care.
Neckline: the face ends here!
The skin in this area is much weaker than the front - there is no dense layer of the pancreas, there are very few sebaceous glands - in this context, constant daily home care is very important. And, in fact, it is no different from face care: the same cleansing, toning, the use of serums, masks and face creams. Expand the facial area up to the upper chest - and thus constantly nourish and moisturize the décolleté area. Observance of such simple rules will also have a beneficial effect on its appearance.
What if you combine the care of this area at home with professional procedures in the beautician's office? In addition, it is very convenient and does not require unnecessary waste of time, as it occurs in parallel. Yes, on the part of the client, this will slightly increase the bill for the procedure: each beautician decides on this problem with the client in his own way, reaching a mutual agreement. Such options are particularly convenient when the client begins a course of facial treatments: in this case, the specialist has at least 10 sessions to restore tone, hydration and care of the décolleté area. And the woman, in turn, is interested in remembering that her face ends in the upper part of her chest, and at least that is it. The neck and décolleté are included in this area by default.
Professional Assistance: What Manual Methods Can Be Offered
The most basic and relatively inexpensive thing that can be done at no extra cost during a professional procedure is to work with the chest area in parallel, using all the same tools. Cleansing and gentle periodic surface exfoliation by hand are the beginning. Acid products have proven to be very effective for care - special acid masks, gels and serums, as well as peeling. For example, the same glycolic acid - in the lines of professional cosmetics manufacturers, such positions are always present.
After washing and drying the skin, applying such a preparation is a matter of seconds. Leave on for 15-20 minutes, depending on the instructions and in strict compliance with them, especially when it comes to chemical peels. However, full-fledged procedures on the décolleté area using chemical acids are a separate work and it makes sense to perform it separately from the face due to the specifics of work with chemical peels. But a variety of acid-containing serums and masks are a completely different matter, they are always easier to combine with the study of the face. Manufacturers recommend covering some products with a film to improve their work and, consequently, the result. And do the usual procedure on the face.
After the specified time has elapsed, the sour preparation is quickly washed off - and here there is already more room for imagination. Serums with glycosaminoglycans, ampoules with elastin and collagen, nourishing, moisturizing or lifting masks, algae masks with their subsequent "heating": any preparation from the arsenal of any cosmetologist will adapt to the decollete area. There are masks that manufacturers recommend that you warm up slightly before applying them, to enhance their effect. It is very convenient to do this on a cup of hot water - an improvised water bath, putting a bowl with the required amount on it. During the makeup removal and cleaning phase, the contents of the bowl will have time to warm up completely. It should be noted that this is very convenient for customers only in the autumn-winter period - a warm mass, covered with a film on top, helps a lot to relax.
Similarly, you can work with your hands, another weak part of the body in women. Since the skin on the hands is much harder and rougher, it is worth connecting special hand scrubs and creams from the arsenal of paraffin therapy. Cold paraffin is an excellent choice for a beautician's office. Scrub, nourishing mass, cold paraffin, gloves and subsequent warming - such a procedure will have a very noticeable effect on the condition of the hands.
While the beautician works with wrinkles on the face, all this time the mask will strengthen and smooth the skin of the décolleté area. Well, when the final post procedural mask is on the face, 10-15-20 minutes of her work is quite enough time for the beautician to move to the upper chest and significantly improve the procedure with hardware methods. .
Neckline: hardware functionality
Hardware methods significantly expand the possibilities of a beauty salon for the care and rejuvenation of the decollete area. When it comes to physiological and safe methods, the following procedures hold the palm of the hand firmly:
- vacuum massage
- Microcurrent therapy
- RF lift
The most affordable option for a specialist is vacuum massage. For the reason that it can be performed on the same nourishing or lifting mask, as they usually include a variety of oils.
Therefore, after applying the final mask on the face, it is easy to move to the décolleté area without wasting time and additional resources - just remove the film. The leather is prepared by preliminary procedures and is ready for further processing. For work, we recommend that you take vacuum ball nozzles. Their action is softer than that of glass, they require a very small amount of oil or cream - given the nutritional basis of the applied products, they are enough for the job. 10-15 minutes of such active exposure with each procedure - and the improvement in firmness, tone and smoothing wrinkles will be very problematic not to be noticed.
A significant added bonus for the client is the study of the front of the entire upper limb girdle and trapezius muscles with nozzles during this procedure. It is in fact a massage of the anterior part of the stress-dependent zone. In addition to strengthening and rejuvenating the décolleté area, a person receives a wonderful relaxing and rejuvenating massage.
From a practical point of view, it is very convenient to perform the microcurrent therapy procedure and RF lifting on the neckline. It will take longer: when choosing this option, the skin must be thoroughly cleaned for the passage of electric current. In terms of purely technical performance of RF lifting work, it is somewhat easier to do, but this is already a matter of choice, individual preferences and technical skills of a particular specialist. It is also possible to improve procedures with diamond microdermabrasion, ultrasonic peeling, electroporation, which allows a specific device. Even 7-10 of these procedures can significantly strengthen, enhance, smooth and rejuvenate the skin of the décolleté area.
With the advent of spring, when warm sweaters will be replaced by more open blouses, and then blouses, t-shirts, sundresses and off-the-shoulder dresses, the restorations carried out in winter to rejuvenate the skin of the décolleté will be very useful. And the woman will meet spring and enter summer with straightened shoulders and proudly raised head.
