The most radical and dangerous way to cleanse the skin is chemical peeling. If it is carried out incorrectly, you can get burns, so it is recommended to use more gentle methods in home care.
Do not clean at home with problematic skin with inflammation, wounds, etc., because its condition can only worsen.
It is also worth remembering about possible allergic reactions and testing the selected remedy before the procedure. Do not apply the product to the skin around the eyes, mouth and eyebrows.

Photo of deep cleansing of the face
Most young girls know skin problems like clogged pores, comedones, and pimples that don't look good on any skin. To remove all these problems, skin care must be approached comprehensively, by all means visiting a dermatologist and following all his advice. One of the main procedures for treating problem skin is mechanical and chemical cleaning of the face, which makes it possible to get rid of clogged pores and significantly improve the penetration of any serums, creams, masks and other cosmetic preparations.
What is mechanical facial cleansing?
Mechanical cleansing of the face is not called by chance, since the process of getting rid of comedones takes place with the help of the hands of a beautician. Only an experienced dermatologist-cosmetologist can effectively perform this cleaning. well aware of the features of the skin structure.
There is no need to be afraid of mechanical cleaning of the face, as the hands of an experienced cosmetologist will be able to create real miracles even with very polluted skin. Naturally, there are still slight painful sensations during this procedure, but they are quite tolerable. Sometimes the doctor does not work with his hands, but with special tools:
- Vidal's needle, it is used if it is necessary to "soften" or "pry off" a very "capricious" comedone.
- Uno spoon, it is a spoon with several or one small holes and is used to remove comedones that are not very deep.
The use of these tools increases the injury risk of cleaning, so it is advisable to prefer the "classic" method, when the master cleans the pores only with his hands.
Preparation and process of mechanical cleaning
Before carrying out the process itself, the skin is thoroughly cleaned and prepared by acting on it with steam, which served by a special apparatus called a vaporizer by applying warming masks and other chemicals, or by combining these two methods. After that, the cleaning process takes place directly, then the skin is necessarily treated with various antiseptic lotions and a soothing cream or mask is applied.
Mechanical facial cleansing is best suited for combination thick or oily skin with various imperfections in the form of pronounced pimples, blackheads and comedones. It is advised to do this cleaning once every few months (it depends on the individual time of skin contamination) or active course of 4-12 treatments every few weeks with a severely neglected skin condition.
face after cleansing
If, after cleansing the face, severe inflammation, abrasions or minor injuries have formed on the skin, then often a a device called darsonval acting on the skin with the help of microcurrents. During the darsonvalization procedure, a slight tingling sensation is felt, but after a rather painful manual cleaning, it may not be felt.
To remove edema after mechanical cleaning, tighten pores, even out skin tone and neutralize mild inflammation, as a rule, special soothing masks are used, which can also have a pleasant cooling effect.
However, no procedures will still completely restore the normal state of the skin, therefore you need to be patient and wait at least 2-3 days until the inflammation subsides. During this period, it is also prohibited:
- visit the swimming pool, sauna, solarium;
- sunbathe;
- carry out any cosmetic manipulations with the skin, except for the application of antibacterial special creams recommended by the doctor;
- dye eyebrows and eyelashes.
Before going outside, you need to take care of protecting your face from the sun by treating it non-comedogenic cream with SPF 30. It is undesirable to use powder and any tonal means throughout the entire recovery period, as they can clog recently cleaned pores. The only exceptions are light primers, powders and mineral-based veils that do not clog pores.
Mechanical cleaning of the skin at home
Despite the apparent complexity of mechanical cleaning of the face, it is quite possible to do it at home, following some rules. Almost all cosmetologists and dermatologists in their reviews it is strictly forbidden to do mechanical cleaning of the face at home, and many people who suffer from problem skin often believe them, continuing to leave rather large amounts in beauty salons every month. But few people think that it is quite possible to do this procedure yourself.
The main condition for mechanical cleaning of the face at home is the creation of sterility of the hands, face and tools used. This can be achieved by carefully considering the step-by-step cleaning and preparation of disinfectants.
To get started you need prepare a cleaning area equipped with a large magnifying mirror and a bright table lamp so that the skin can be seen as much as possible. It is best to do this at a table that needs to be covered with sterile gauze in several layers.
Then you need to comb your hair back and fix it with a special bandage, then take care of thoroughly cleaning your hands with antibacterial soap, and then your face with soft gels, foams or any other means that are washed off with water. You need to wipe the skin of the face with disposable paper towels or, even better, with a piece of sterile bandage.
After you need prepare the skin for further cleansing by opening all the pores. This can be done using the so-called water bath, which involves steaming the skin of the face over a pot of hot water for 6–12 minutes for oily skin, and 3–5 minutes for normal skin.
Instead of plain water, it is advisable to use various herbal decoctions that have a mild sedative and anti-inflammatory effect (calendula, chamomile, etc.) or simply drop a few drops of lemon essential oil, eucalyptus or tea tree oil into the pan. Instead of steaming, warming special masks are also used, but they open the pores a little worse.
After the skin of the face is prepared, you need to wash your hands again with some kind of antibacterial agent, or simple ethyl alcohol.
It is necessary to clean the face, starting with the most “clean” areas, and slowly moving towards dirtier places (usually from the periphery to the middle of the face). Some beauticians in reviews recommend wrapping fingers with sterile disposable napkins, which need to be replaced after every few squeezed out comedones, but with short nails, you can simply wash your hands periodically with alcohol.
You need to put pressure on comedones very carefully, “pumping” their contents to the middle. It is not advisable to use the Vidal needle, Uno spoon and other special devices for home cleansing of the face. No need to try to clean all the pores, as this is almost impossible. It is necessary to pay attention to the most polluted part of the face, and after cleaning, it is imperative to wash again thoroughly with antibacterial soap and apply a soothing cream to the body, which has the effect of narrowing the pores.
Contraindications to mechanical cleaning of the face
Since mechanical cleaning of the face is a rather traumatic process for the skin, there are a number of contraindications for its implementation, namely:
- Allergic dermatitis at the stage of exacerbation.
- Presence of any infectious skin diseases.
- Tendency to fragility of vessels on the face and rosacea.
- Eczema, psoriasis and similar diseases associated with the presence of areas with peeling and violation of the surface layer of the skin.
- Tendency to the appearance of keloid scars from any damage to the skin.
- Severely dry skin.
- Vegetative-vascular dystonia, bronchial asthma and other disorders of cerebral circulation.
- The presence on the face of large convex moles and other formations that can be damaged during cleaning.
Combined facial cleansing
One of the most effective approaches to the care of oily and problematic skin is the combination of ultrasonic and mechanical cleaning, which makes it possible to achieve a more effective cleansing. It is possible to act with ultrasound on the skin both before and after mechanical cleaning. In the latter case the process of subsequent cleansing of pores is easier, and in the first one, you can soothe the skin and “fix” the effect of mechanical cleaning with the help of professional anti-inflammatory drugs, the penetration into the skin of which is improved by ultrasound.
Unlike mechanical cleaning, the result of ultrasonic cleaning will not depend on the qualifications of the master. And if it is best to trust the skin for manual cleaning only to a dermatologist, then any beautician can handle facial cleansing with ultrasound. In addition, there are also special devices for carrying out this procedure at home, which make it possible to clean the pores on their own.
This is a procedure for deep cleansing of the skin from external and internal impurities. It renews the vital potential of the skin, its protective functions and helps to maintain the appearance of the face in excellent condition.
Modern cosmetology offers a wide variety of ways to clean the skin of the face, which can be found in the website services catalog. In this article we will talk about the classic method - cleaning the face with the hands of a beautician.
What is manual cleaning?
In general, mechanical facial cleansing has few contraindications, but the procedure cannot be done when:
- herpes;
- eczema;
- acute forms of dermatitis;
- allergies;
- dry skin;
- fragile vessels;
- furunculosis.
Phenomena such as a tendency to inflammation, bronchial asthma, hypertension, blood diseases, menstruation and PMS are not among the complete contraindications, however, if they exist, it is necessary to consult a specialist regarding the possibility of carrying out the procedure.
Description of the procedure: methodology, steps, means
Mechanical cleaning of the face, as a rule, lasts from 40 to 50 minutes. The exact time is determined by the protocol, which is drawn up by the beautician, taking into account the general condition of the skin and the possible use of additional cosmetic procedures.
The procedure has a clear algorithm of actions, consisting of three stages.
Stage I. Preliminary preparation
The skin is cleansed of makeup and dust with the help of cleansing cosmetics, selected specifically for the type and characteristics of the skin. In case of excessive contamination of the skin, a cleansing mask is additionally applied. With the help of a scrub or superficial peeling, excess sebum, dead cells of the upper layer of the skin are removed.
Next, a steaming procedure is carried out, which opens clogged pores and thereby facilitates the removal of deep contaminants. The steaming technique involves treating the skin with moist warm steam or using a special thermal gel, which makes the cleansing process more gentle and at the same time prevents dehydration of the skin.
Preparatory procedures are completed by rubbing the skin with 3% hydrogen peroxide or a lotion that does not contain alcohol components.
Stage II. Mechanical and manual processing
This step describes how the direct cleansing and removal of the content of the pores is carried out using tools and fingertips.
How is this procedure done in the salon? Armed with a special tool - Vidal's loop, the cosmetologist removes dead cells, shallow comedones and black dots from the skin within 5-7 minutes, while it does not affect areas where there are inflamed and immature acne.
How is scraping done? Manipulations are performed strictly against the course of the ducts of the sebaceous glands: on the forehead - from the bottom up, on the wings of the nose - from the base to the backs, on the cheeks - from the edge to the center.
When passing along the processing line, the loop captures the plugs that have settled in the pores and pulls them out. Contaminants that are not amenable to mechanical action are removed with light squeezing movements with fingertips wrapped in sterile napkins.
During cleaning, the instrument is periodically treated with a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution, and the face is wiped with disinfectants.
Stage III. Final processing
A special mask is applied to cleansed skin, which tightens pores, soothes and softens the skin, and inflamed areas are treated with d'arsonval. At the end of the procedure, the face is covered with a layer of protective cream.
Face cleansing with uno spoon
In cases where the skin is heavily contaminated, and deep pores cannot be completely cleaned, cosmetologists treat the areas with a Uno spoon.
This cosmetic tool is a metal device, the ends of which are made in the form of spoons. On the one hand, this is a spatula-sieve with small holes, designed to remove sebaceous secretions, on the other hand, a spoon with a hole for extracting comedones.
This video shows a step-by-step procedure for mechanical cleaning of the face using the Uno spoon.
Care after the procedure
After the procedure, red spots-circles remain on the skin, a slight swelling appears, and literally the next day the skin may begin to peel off. In this regard, the question often arises: how long does the face heal after manipulation?
As a rule, the reaction to mechanical and manual action disappears after 2-3 days, complete healing lasts up to 5 days, after which the positive cleaning results are visible to the naked eye.
However, if the algorithm of actions was not followed during the procedure or the recommendations of a specialist on how to care for the skin after cleaning were not followed, unpleasant consequences and even complications may occur. So, for example, excessive zeal of a cosmetologist or neglect of contraindications leads to the formation of hematomas on the face, and not following the rules for processing tools and hands of a specialist will cause acne and inflammation to appear on the face again.
What to do in such cases? Be sure to contact a specialist who will determine the degree of complication and recommend medicines for treatment.
The main skin care after cleansing is to apply to the skin three times a day soothing and accelerating cell regeneration agents. As a rule, for these purposes, the beautician recommends using lotions that do not contain alcohol. You can also use mild antiseptics, therapeutic clay masks, which perfectly dry the skin.

Manual facial cleansing: comparison with other procedures
Mechanical action on the skin of the face is a simple and quite effective way of cleansing. It does not require the use of expensive devices, tools and has a minimum of contraindications.
7.1 Hardware and manual cleaning: which is better?
Compared with the ultrasonic method, mechanical cleaning of the face is more traumatic. But, at the same time, ultrasound does not remove deep comedones and blackheads, which can be removed manually.
It is recommended to combine these methods by exposing the skin to ultrasound either before or after manual cleaning. In the first case, the further process of cleaning the pores is facilitated, in the second, ultrasonic treatment fixes the results of mechanical action. In addition, ultrasound contributes to better penetration into the skin of nutrients that are in the composition of masks and creams.
7.2 Which cleaning is better: vacuum or manual
The absence of pain and a gentle effect are the main differences between vacuum facial cleansing. But with its help it is quite difficult to get rid of very deep comedones, which the Uno spoon and fingers effectively cope with. As in the case of ultrasonic cleaning, this method can be used in conjunction with manual cleaning, which will give a double result and a prolonged effect.
7.3 Peeling or manual cleaning?
Unlike manual cleaning, peels are not able to remove deep dirt and closed comedones. Also, peeling is allowed only in the cold season, when UV rays are less aggressive. In addition, it has a number of other limitations that make the procedure impossible. In this case, mechanical cleaning helps out.
If there are no contraindications for peeling, the cosmetologist will offer a comprehensive cleansing, while peeling will be used as a fixing procedure.
Price
The cost of one manual cleaning procedure in beauty salons and centers in Kyiv ranges from 200-800 hryvnia. Such a wide price range is due to:
- institution level;
- the category of cosmetic products used;
- carrying out complex programs of cleansing and subsequent skin restoration.
So, a standard manual cleaning procedure in an ordinary beauty salon costs 200-300 hryvnias.
Facial cleansing in a cosmetology center using professional cosmetics is from 380 hryvnia and more.
In the case of complex cleansing using expensive products and devices, one session will cost at least 750 hryvnia.
Larisa Eroshina
Photos before and after facial cleansing by a beautician filled the virtual space. Many consider the procedure a panacea for many cosmetic defects, they take it as a powerful weapon against old age. But are the expectations justified? When is cleaning really necessary? When it does not bring visible changes for the better. We will tell in our material.
In modern cosmetology there is a huge arsenal for high-quality, painless "general cleaning" of the face. All of them have their advantages and disadvantages. Let's explore each to choose the best method.
Throughout life, our skin absorbs kilograms of dirt. Decorative cosmetics, street dust, exhaust traces in megacities, precipitation from poor-quality water - any cosmetologist will add to the list of sources of "garbage" for our epithelium. As a result, our complexion becomes dull, pores become clogged, and with age, small and large wrinkles steadily appear. Facial cleansing is recommended from time to time. The ideal option is once a month.
How good cleaning can help:
- get rid of skin rashes;
- refresh the complexion;
- will destroy traces of "an old" cosmetics, powder, tonal creams;
- narrows pores;
- normalizes blood circulation in the skin of the face;
- regulates the work of the sebaceous glands.
Some types of cleansing remove dead skin layers, releasing new ones: clean and tender. Very often, it is cleaning with such an effective method as peeling that rejuvenates a woman, removing up to 30% of visible wrinkles on the face, making even deep creases on the forehead and crow's feet invisible, which often appear after 30 years.
Timely cleansing helps the skin breathe. The flow of oxygen to each cell improves. It is useful for skin cells, general well-being of a person.
But there are also certain disadvantages. In case of skin diseases, such as vascular network, dermatitis, rosacea, the procedure can aggravate the situation, exacerbate the disease. For safety, it is reasonable to do the procedures not at home, but in a beauty salon. Even if the cosmetologist recommends mechanical cleaning of the face, the manipulation will pass without negative consequences.
Modern cleansing methods
Gone are the days when facial cleansing was done only by hand. The face was steamed over the Chamomile device or just a bowl of hot water, and then the beautician simply squeezed out pimples, cleaned black spots. The rest was done by simple masks of oatmeal, lemon or cucumber. Now cosmetologists are actively using sparing techniques, although mechanical cleaning is often necessary for high-quality and deep cleaning of the face.
Types of cleaning:
- mechanical;
- chemical;
- disincrustation;
- ultrasonic;
- vacuum;
- laser.
Squeezing out pimples and blackheads remains the only way to remove the "ancient" contaminated pores - blackheads - from the surface of the skin. Often, not a single device takes them, and then the beautician connects physics. After mechanical cleaning (this is often seen in the photo), redness remains, the skin swells noticeably at the sites of manipulation, and it takes time for it to fully recover. Other methods require separate consideration.
Chemical skin cleansing
Many people confuse chemical cleaning of the face with peels. But this is not always the same. For cleansing, special alginate masks, film masks and other formulations with herbal and chemical components can be used. Peelings, of course, are superior in effect to such procedures. They remove the keratinized layer of the skin, achieving natural cell regeneration.
There are such types of peels:
- surface;
- median;
- deep.
For superficial peeling, cosmetologists use fruit, lactic acids with a high concentration. In addition to them, whitening, moisturizing ingredients and vitamins may be present in the composition. The master applies acid to the face, leaves it for a short time, neutralizes the effect with special solutions, and then removes it. After the procedure, it is important to wait for the epithelium to peel off. But the result of such purification is impressive. The face becomes younger, age spots, small redness disappear, an internal glow appears.
Peeling has contraindications. For example, experts do not recommend it for owners of sensitive skin prone to rosacea.
Medium and deep peels are much more aggressive. Which one suits you personally - find out in a personal consultation with a specialist.
Facial cleansing by deincrustation is a gentle procedure for all skin types. Cleaning is carried out even for owners of thin sensitive skin. Anyone who suffers from redness, irritation. Disincrustation is a cleansing with a special device. To begin with, the face is treated with a solution that consists of baking soda (10% concentration), herbal extracts, and trace elements.
The device produces microcurrents that bring the cleansing solution into the deep layer of the skin. Reacting with sebum, the solution forms soap, and the beautician easily removes it from the surface of the epithelium.
The advantages of the method are huge:
- dead cells are destroyed;
- pores, ducts of the sebaceous glands are cleansed;
- acne heals;
- complexion improves.
With a number of diseases, such as herpes, seborrhea, during pregnancy and lactation, the procedure may be prohibited. But in general, the procedure is safe and delicate.
Recently, cosmetology has been actively using innovative methods of facial cleansing. These include ultrasonic cleaning. Ultrasonic cleaning is absolutely painless, completely safe, never causes irritation and is suitable for absolutely everyone.
The principle of the procedure is to use high-frequency sound. The device is a microscopic vacuum cleaner. It emits ultrasonic vibrations, drawing dirt out of the skin.
What happens in the end:
- cellular metabolism is stimulated;
- improves blood flow in the vessels;
- complexion improves;
- increased oxygen supply.
But ultrasound is not able to "pull out of the holes" deep comedones. And here the beautician connects mechanical cleaning, squeezing black dots with his hands. Worth knowing: ultrasound is not done to people with age spots, serious disorders in the work of the heart and blood vessels.
The most modern method is called gas-liquid peeling. Cleaning is carried out by bubbles of oxygen and carbon dioxide, which break the dirt into tiny particles. Peeling is valued for its bright rejuvenating effect.
Effective hardware facial cleaning by a beautician, which can be seen in the photo, is called vacuum cleansing. The work is done by a small device. It draws out all the dirt, excess subcutaneous fat from the pores with a vacuum. In the process, the epithelium is powerfully saturated with oxygen, and it helps to start renewal processes at the cellular level. Plus, the vacuum has a slight lifting effect, pulling up the oval of the face.
Advantages of the procedure:
- blood circulation increases;
- the complexion becomes fresh;
- the contour of the face is tightened.
The result pleases everyone: the skin is leveled, the pores are narrowed, the top layer of the skin is leaving, giving way to a velvety skin. But the procedure is unrealistic to repeat at home, much depends on the skills of the beautician: you have to clean thoroughly, treating the skin literally by a centimeter.
Nowadays, new technologies are actively used for facial cleansing. The laser is one of the latest inventions in the engineering industry. Under the influence of a laser beam, the upper keratinized layer of the skin is destroyed, and in parallel, the renewal process starts. A huge plus of the procedure is the stimulation of the production of collagen and elastin. Their number becomes sufficient for wrinkles to begin to smooth out, the complexion from dull to radiant.
Advantages of the cleansing method:
- the skin becomes cleaner and fresher;
- the relief of the skin is leveled;
- increases firmness, elasticity;
The effect is prolonged: even after the completion of the procedure in the beauty parlor, the regeneration will continue. The "climax" will be noticeable about a month after the completion of the course of sessions.
A necessary condition for high-quality laser cleansing is the qualification of a cosmetologist. The devices are complex and the specialist is obliged to understand their work. And also get ready to spend: while the course is quite expensive.
It is important to understand that laser cleansing cannot be performed on women under the age of 25, but at the age of 35+, procedures can become regular.
Photos of real patients
We made the most detailed selection of photographs of patients who resorted to facial cleansing by a beautician. All of them have experienced different techniques. Look at the pictures before and after the procedure. Draw your own conclusions.
The face after cleaning by a beautician in the photo after looks much lighter, younger. It can be seen here that with the help of chemical cleaning it is possible to achieve a lifting effect: on light, clean skin, wrinkles are practically not noticeable.
Mechanical facial cleansing by a beautician: see photo. Here you can see that after manual cleaning, redness remains, the skin looks slightly swollen. But on the face there are no purulent acne and black spots.
Cleaned by the method of dry cleaning of the face on the deincrustation apparatus, it is distinguished by radiance and virgin purity. In this way, it is possible to achieve a wonderful effect of velvety, radiant skin. What immediately catches the eye in the photo.
The photo of cleaning the face with a vacuum method shows how painstakingly the beautician works. It is also easy to notice in the pictures: black dots disappear without a trace.
A cosmetic procedure with a laser is one of the new and progressive. But not everyone can afford such a facial yet because of the expensive cost.
The photo shows how facial cleaning is carried out in the cabin. Skin cleaning with ultrasound is even a pleasure for clients of aesthetic centers and beauty salons.
Today, there are many cosmetic procedures that can solve almost any problem, as evidenced by the photos before and after facial cleansing by a beautician, which are publicly available. The range of services provided is so wide that it is difficult for an ordinary person to make the right choice. With this, cosmetologists are called to help, who will select the right options.
Types of cleanings and who they are suitable for
Gone are the days when care consisted of steaming the dermis, squeezing out pimples and applying primitive compositions for masks. Cosmetology does not stand still, and therefore today this area amazes with the variety of procedures performed. Among the main types are:
- mechanical;
- chemical;
- ultrasonic;
- vacuum;
- laser;
- disincrustation.
Each of the above methods should be carried out in salon conditions, and be sure to consult a doctor before the session. It is he who, based on the condition of the patient's epithelium, age, characteristics, existing problems, will tell you exactly what type of procedure is required. Although all methods have a common goal - purification, they differ in the way they are carried out, the devices or compositions used, and indications.
- black dots;
- acne
- acne disease;
- impaired secretion of the sebaceous glands;
- loss of turgor;
- deterioration in the tone of the dermis;
- lethargy, aging.
The face after cleaning by a beautician, as the photos show, noticeably changes: the color becomes healthy, the epidermis becomes elastic, clean, pores narrow, comedones are eliminated, and there is no trace of fine wrinkles.
Photos before and after procedures
You can see how effective it is by comparing photos of clients before and after the procedure.
This cleansing procedure is characterized by the use of special tools or apparatus. It often causes discomfort, but it remains one of the most effective procedures, since it reaches the middle layers of the dermis, cleansing "from the inside". The photo shows that after the actions of the beautician, swelling remains, redness appears, the appearance becomes painful. But this is quite normal, and most importantly - a temporary effect, which, with proper care, will disappear after 2-3 days.
In this case, mechanical action is not performed, peeling is carried out using alginate compounds, acids (often fruit acids), which penetrate the epidermis, breaking down toxic substances. Photos after dry cleaning of the face show that such cleaning also leaves its mark on the face: redness or peeling (as in the photo).
Attention! The recovery period lasts from 5 to 10 days, during this time it is forbidden to use decorative cosmetics and take sunbaths. Before going outside, you need to use sunscreen.
Ultrasonic facial cleansing is an innovation in the field of beauty with a number of advantages:
- painless;
- carried out without the use of tools;
- harmless;
- suits everyone.
Cleansing occurs under the action of high-frequency ultrasound, the vibrations of which "get" the dirt from the cells. Therefore, this method does not lead to complications and has no negative consequences.
Hardware cleansing, similar to the previous type, since it also draws out excess dirt and sebum from the pores. In the photo of the face after hardware cleaning, the result is visible - a decrease in sebaceous plugs, an improvement in complexion, the epithelium becomes dull after the intervention of a cosmetologist, and the photo also shows that the relief is leveling.
The latest word in the engineering industry is suitable for localized exposure. The photo after deep cleansing of the face in the salon shows the complexity of the result after cleaning:
- the tone brightened;
- dark circles under the eyes are not pronounced;
- the number of acne has decreased;
- pigment spots in the photo became invisible.
Another type of hardware intervention provides such results as the removal of the stratum corneum, the treatment of acne, acne, drying of the oily dermis, overall cleanliness, and velvety skin.
Preparation
Cleaning is preceded by the preparation of the skin, consisting of simple hygiene rules and some restrictive measures.
Mechanical cleansing of the face begins with a thorough cleansing of the skin from dirt and make-up residues, such cleaning is often not complete without a special cleansing face mask, which every cosmetologist should have.
Attention! All manipulations of a cosmetologist for any type of cleansing should be carried out on a perfectly cleansed, treated dermis!
Then vaporization is carried out - steaming the epithelium with the help of a warming gel.
The preparation procedure is standard - removal of sebum, impurities. A few days before the procedure, you should refrain from using strong mechanical peels, visiting a solarium or the beach.
After make-up removal with cosmetic milk or tonic, cold steaming is carried out using a special solution. Such a gel not only simplifies the penetration of the ultrasonic flow into the epidermal layer, but also enriches the cells with moisture.
In order to “pull out” the maximum amount of contaminants from the pores, full disclosure is required. To do this, you need to steam or gel treatment.
Before exposure to the laser device, the dermis should be steamed in advance - no earlier than 2-4 days before the procedure. It is also forbidden to apply any chemical potent active agents for the purpose of greater purification.
Remains of make-up, atmospheric dust are removed. The step with steaming can be skipped, since under the influence of microcurrents, sebaceous plugs tend to change the structure, composition, and subcutaneous fat simply melts. After that, a special solution is applied based on medicinal herbs, soda, useful trace elements.
Basic procedure
The epithelium before and after the facial cleansing procedure is strikingly different, in order to know which cleaning will have certain consequences, it is important to understand the facial treatment methods.
The bottom line is manual exposure using special tools for pressure. So the contents of the pores come out. The method is unpleasant, and sometimes painful, but the results are pleasant. And mechanical peeling continues to lead the ratings of effective methods.
The dissolution of toxic substances that clog pores occurs under the action of acids contained in the cleansing composition. Usually this:
- dairy;
- salicylic;
- fruit;
- hydro-;
- retinoic;
- azelaic acid.
Hardware cleansing is carried out using a scrubber - a special device that produces high-frequency ultrasonic waves. Penetrating deep, tissue micromassage is performed. An atraumatic procedure that accelerates cell regeneration.
It is especially important in local cleansing, when it is required to treat a specific problem area. This is done as follows: a device resembling a mini-vacuum cleaner is installed on the site, and all contaminants are sucked out through the drainage tube. Suitable for fighting blackheads, pimples.
The principle of cleansing is based on the action of a light beam, clearly directed to the problem area. The laser flow is adjusted in a certain way, after being absorbed by the cells of the dermis, it destroys all accumulated pollution, "burning" the bacteria.
Disincrustation (galvanic cleaning)
The galvanic current generated by a special device interacts with the pre-treated dermis. A polarizing alkaline composition is applied to it, which, under the action of microcurrent, penetrates into the tissues, splitting the dirt. A soap mixture is formed on the surface from a solution with pore contents, which is removed by a cosmetologist during the session.
It is important to know! Despite the terrible word "current", galvanic cleaning is a gentle procedure recommended even for people with thin sensitive epithelium.
Care after the procedure
In order to avoid the occurrence of complications, as well as in order to consolidate the effect obtained, it is necessary to adhere to the recommendations for care.
The irritated epithelium needs to be soothed - for this, the cosmetologist performs the darsonvalization procedure or cryomassage that narrows the pores. At home, during the rehabilitation period, clay masks will help.
Excluded any exfoliants during the first two days. As often as possible, you need to moisturize the cells. Recommended drugs such as Bepanten, Panthenol.
After the procedure, the covers are treated with an antiseptic or any emollient in the form of a mask or lotion. Radical obligatory caring methods are not prescribed.
When peeling occurs, use thermal water, emulsions, softening masks, delicate moisturizing creams more often. Cryomassage or darsonvalization is appropriate.
After this type of peeling, the epidermis is as defenseless as possible, subject to the influence of negative external factors. First of all, the beautician applies a protective composition to go outside. In the future, you need to independently treat the area with creams with UV protection.
Special care is not required, the main thing is cleaning from the removed contaminants. General contraindications related to all types of cleanings are:
- violation of the integrity of the skin;
- allergy or individual intolerance to individual components;
- skin and infectious diseases;
- oncology;
- respiratory diseases;
- hypertension;
- diseases of the cardiovascular system.
The price of different types of cleanings varies (depending on the region, the status of the salon) and ranges from 500 rubles. up to 10,000 rubles
