New procedure in cosmetology - infrared lifting
Today, one of the most popular facial treatments in demand among women of different ages is infrared lifting. Despite the fact that in the modern world plastic surgery is considered to be no less popular, it is not the first year that women have resorted to non-surgical methods of rejuvenation. Infrared lifting belongs to them, with the help of which you can make a painless facelift as soon as possible.
Before performing this procedure, you should learn more about all its features, pros and cons. It is also equally important to read the advice of experts in the beauty industry and customer reviews.
Peculiarities
If we take into account the calculations of scientists, according to which by the age of 25, collagen production in skin cells decreases by about one percent, we can conclude that by the age of 45, the skin becomes much less elastic and elastic. Wrinkles and age spots become visible on it. The color becomes uneven.
Creams, serums and other daily care help to enhance the synthesis of collagen in the skin, prevent the further appearance of wrinkles and, in general, transform the skin. But, as a rule, such simple measures are not enough for the skin to fully recover and look well-groomed.
In order to restore the natural balance of collagen production as quickly as possible, make a facelift and smooth out noticeable wrinkles, you can use special cosmetic devices with infrared effects. Most often, this kind of procedure is carried out in professional beauty salons.
Today, infrared thermolifting for the face, neck and décolleté is especially popular. In simple terms, due to the thermal effect on the skin, the processes that are responsible for cell regeneration are triggered in the body, as a result of which there is an accelerated tissue renewal. The effect of the procedure is noticeable almost immediately. Metabolic processes in the epidermis are accelerated, while the synthesis of skin cells and collagen fibers is improved.
At the same time, due to infrared rays, the upper layers of the skin are not destroyed, since the effect of such devices, as a rule, is directed to the deeper layers.

Main indications for use
This procedure can be carried out in different cases. It is often used for prophylactic purposes, but more often, of course, it is resorted to in case of visible signs of aging.
Infrared lifting is indicated for:
- lack of clarity of the oval of the face and with the formation of a double chin;
- the presence of swelling under the eyes;
- sagging skin that urgently needs correction after losing weight or as a result of age-related changes in the cells of the epidermis;
- "Faded" skin, on which wrinkles and age spots began to appear actively.
An excellent result from infrared lifting can be obtained immediately after several procedures. No less often, such a health lifting is used after various surgical procedures with the skin.
It has been clinically established that already on the second day after the procedure, collagen begins to rapidly develop in the cells of the epidermis, while the processes of regeneration and healing are accelerated in the body. As a result of the stimulation of all natural processes in the body, the skin immediately becomes tighter, smoother and more radiant, and the relief of the face also improves.
About the technique
Before visiting a beauty parlor for a non-surgical tightening, you should find out what it consists of and what you should be prepared for. The infrared lifting procedure is usually short-lived. Basically, a standard facial session in a beauty salon lasts no more than half an hour.
The selected part of the skin (face, neck, décolleté or any other area on the body) is "passed" by a special device with infrared radiation. The most popular salons operate exclusively on high-quality and licensed equipment from Europe and the USA.
Prior to the procedure in any salon, it is recommended to consult a specialist. The beautician must determine the type of skin, take into account age and other nuances that will help him choose an individual approach and the parameters of the required infrared radiation. This is done to make the procedure comfortable, even if the client has very delicate and sensitive skin.
The lifting process takes place in a certain way.
- At the first stage, the skin must be cleansed. With the help of special products, excess cosmetics and dirt are removed.
- Then the beautician gently applies a gel to the selected surface, which allows the device to glide more easily over the skin, without causing any inconvenience to the client.
- The skin is carefully worked out using an infrared device, while the device gives special impulses that create a feeling of light warmth.
Basically, there are no special prohibitions and restrictions after completing this short procedure. Nevertheless, it is recommended to refrain from strong peels of the upper layers of the skin and frequent scrubbing for a month.
As for home care, it is better to give preference to safe lines of cosmetics, which contain exclusively natural ingredients. Particular attention should be paid to products with useful hyaluronic acid. You can make nourishing and moisturizing masks.
Contraindications
Despite the versatility and painlessness of the procedure, and she also has contraindications, which include:
- chronic skin diseases and severe inflammation;
- varicose veins in the area where the procedure will be carried out;
- pregnancy;
- exacerbation of any infectious diseases of various etiologies;
- diabetes;
- hypertension;
- individual intolerance, including allergic reactions.
It is also undesirable to do this procedure if one month or at least three weeks has not passed since the last visit to the solarium.
Expert advice
Some women like to stay ahead of the curve and sign up for facial rejuvenation treatments right away, but this is not always required. According to many professionals, before any manipulation related to the face, it is necessary to consult a cosmetologist, and sometimes a dermatologist, if there are reasons for this. It is undesirable to do lifting without appropriate indications. In addition, an experienced cosmetologist can prescribe preliminary procedures that can further enhance the effect of infrared radiation or other more appropriate measures in a particular case.
It is important to know about different infrared lifting devices. Models with continuous radiation are the least in demand, since they can form scars in the deep layers of the skin and reduce the ability of epidermal cells to further regenerate. It is best to choose those devices that give fractional radiation. It is safer for the skin.
Reviews
On the Internet, you can find a lot of different reviews about infrared lifting. Mostly they are left by middle-aged women who go to this procedure to get rid of unpleasant wrinkles and correct the oval of the face.
