What cryolifting can do for your facial skin

Exposure to cold is a great way to maintain freshness, elasticity of the skin, and restore a healthy complexion. Local influence starts regeneration processes, improves oxygen respiration and nutrient supply. The use of hardware cosmetology allows you to delay age-related changes and improve the condition of problematic dermis. Cryolifting is a popular procedure during which a spasm occurs followed by dilation of blood vessels, lymph outflow and blood circulation are normalized. By increasing the permeability of the skin, the effect of the nutritional vitamin cocktails used increases. Exposure to cold is carried out in a temperature range from –5 to –18 in combination with active regenerating and moisturizing agents.

Indications for use

Hardware physiotherapy is used to improve skin condition starting from the age of 18. The best effect can be achieved before the age of 35–40; after 45, age-related changes require complex effects and the use of invasive technologies.

Indications for:

  • the first signs of aging;
  • dryness, sagging skin;
  • porous, oily dermis, prone to acne;
  • decreased elasticity, displacement of the eyebrow line;
  • swelling, ptosis;
  • unhealthy, tired complexion.

Indications

Hardware physiotherapy for epidermal rejuvenation is carried out for adults. The best results are achieved in middle-aged women, while after 45 years, an integrated approach with invasive measures is already needed to mitigate the natural aging processes.

Other contraindications to the procedure: low blood clotting, atherosclerosis, autoimmune pathologies in the connective tissue, frequent cases of herpetic diseases, inflammation of the maxillary sinuses, pregnancy, breastfeeding, inflammation of the facial or trigeminal nerve, pathologies of the cardiovascular system.

Cryolift is performed if the following indications exist:

  • The first age-related changes.
  • Dry, sagging skin.
  • Oily epidermis, acne.

  • Vascular networks , asterisks, rosacea.
  • Significant time .
  • Small, deep wrinkles .
  • Stretch marks, scars , scars.
  • Pigment spots , dark circles under the eyes.

Another procedure is performed to moisturize the skin, normalize the functionality of the sebaceous glands, and strengthen small blood vessels. The device treats not only the face, but also other areas of the body.

Efficiency of the technique

The effectiveness of cryolifting:

  1. As a result of the impact, spasm occurs, and then dilation of blood vessels. The rapid sequence of narrowing and increasing the lumen ensures the strengthening of the walls, restores the processes of nutrition and saturation with useful components. The response of the vascular system to controlled cooling helps prevent rosacea and increase the skin's resistance to aggressive environmental factors.
  2. Oxygenation provides oxygen saturation by restoring microcirculation. As a result of the procedure, color and structure instantly improve, and signs of fatigue disappear.
  3. Pain relief that occurs under the influence of cold leads to a temporary disruption of the connection between nerve impulses and muscles. The fibers relax, due to which facial wrinkles are smoothed, the contour is restored, and elasticity is increased.

As a result of a course of therapy consisting of 8–10 sessions, it is possible to:

  • cope with expression wrinkles, reduce the number of deep folds;
  • increase the elasticity and firmness of the integument;
  • narrow pores, normalize the secretion of sebaceous glands;
  • improve skin color and structure;
  • get rid of bags, dark circles under the eyes;
  • restore hydrobalance, saturate cells with nutrients.

Attention! Hardware treatment is ineffective for hyperpigmentation, pronounced age-related changes, displacement of the oval contour, jowls, and a double chin. Also, cryotherapy will not help cure acne or demodex.

What is cryolifting?

An innovative method of rejuvenation and correction of aesthetic skin defects. Refers to non-injection mesotherapy. Designed specifically for patients who have contraindications to injection techniques. Based on the effect of paradoxical vasomotor activity. The local effect of cold on individual zones leads to a reflex narrowing and then expansion of the subcutaneous vessels. As a result, the skin becomes more susceptible to absorption (absorption) of the active ingredients of the mesotherapy “cocktail” applied to the surface of the treated area.

Cryolifting provides comparable results to the injection mesotherapy method.

Cryolifting at the Kivach clinic

This procedure in the clinic is carried out using the Cryo Pro device, which has a local cryogenic effect on the surface tissues of the body.


This allows you to achieve several results simultaneously:

  • cryodermophoresis is one of the types of non-injection injection of mesotherapy drugs into the deep layers of the skin;
  • cryostimulation - in response to short-term intense cooling, “biostimulins” are produced in tissues, which activate regenerative processes;
  • instant lifting – when tactile receptors are exposed to a local source of cold, static tension occurs in the facial muscles;
  • lymphatic drainage – a special technique for operating the device’s nozzle causes lymphatic drainage and decongestant effects.

During the procedure, serums developed by the manufacturer of the Cryo Pro device are used. 4 types of composition are used - for skin radiance, to fight wrinkles, for deep hydration, to restore skin firmness and elasticity.

The clinic's patients are offered other methods of non-injection mesotherapy - alternatives to cryolifting.

The clinic’s cosmetologist will help you choose the optimal method, based on the patient’s health condition, the nature and severity of the defects, and existing contraindications.

About the procedure

Periodicity:

determined by the doctor.

Effect:

primary can be assessed after the first session; During the course of procedures, the effect intensifies and reaches its maximum a week after the end of the last procedure of the course.

Cryolifting technique

In most cases, cryolifting is carried out as a course of procedures. Their number and duration are determined by a cosmetologist. The duration of one session is 20-45 minutes.

Before starting the procedure, the cosmetologist selects the serum. The selection is made on an individual basis depending on the objectives, the wishes of the patient, the condition of his skin, etc. This composition is applied to the skin immediately before the start of the hardware treatment. In some cases, after applying the “cocktail”, additional processing is carried out. This allows the active substances to be absorbed into the deeper layers of the skin.


During the procedure, a cosmetologist uses a special attachment to treat the problem area of ​​the skin. During treatment under the influence of cold, the effect of paradoxical vasomotor occurs. The blood vessels in the skin narrow, and after 4-5 minutes of continuous cooling they expand. As a result, veno- and lymphatic flow is activated, the permeability of the vascular walls increases, which leads to active absorption of the mesotherapy “cocktail”. The active ingredients of this composition stimulate a number of important regenerative processes that rejuvenate tissues, eliminate cosmetic defects and improve the general condition of the skin in the treatment area.

The temperature and duration of treatment are determined individually.

During a free consultation, the clinic’s cosmetologist will listen to your wishes, conduct an examination,, if necessary, prescribe additional tests and suggest methods that best suit you.

There are no lifestyle restrictions or dietary restrictions; the patient can immediately return to their usual schedule after undergoing the procedure.

Carrying out the procedure

Often the procedure is part of a comprehensive program, carried out after mechanical or chemical peeling, to speed up recovery after plastic surgery. Despite the safe, gentle method of skin care, you should only trust qualified specialists. In addition to medical education, it is important to pay attention to the availability of certificates for the drugs used, as well as the device used. The physiotherapy procedure requires training in work techniques to prevent side effects, as well as tissue hypothermia.

Stages:

  1. Make-up removal is carried out using professional products; it is possible to use a scrub or surface peeling.
  2. The pre-selected composition is evenly distributed on the skin.
  3. Cocktails can be based on hyaluronic acid, collagen, vitamins, amino acids, and are also used with bioextracts and stem cells. The choice of composition depends on the purpose of the procedure - whitening, rejuvenation, removal of puffiness.
  4. Afterwards, the areas are treated with a special handpiece; the exposure to cold can reach a maximum of -20.
  5. At the end of the cold therapy, the cosmetologist applies a soothing, moisturizing mask.
  6. The procedure lasts from 30 to 60 minutes. The effect can be assessed immediately after all cosmetic procedures.

The anesthetic effect avoids discomfort and painful sensitivity. The patient's sensations are similar to a massage with ice cubes.

Execution steps

Often, cryotherapy is part of a special complex, done after peeling of a mechanical or chemical nature, to accelerate regeneration after plastic surgery. Despite the high level of safety and gentle skin care, preference should be given to a qualified technician with extensive experience.

In addition to having the necessary medical education, you should study the certificates of the devices used, check the condition of the instrument and sterility. Cryotherapy can lead to some side effects, hypothermia of tissue structures, so it is important to be trained in the correct technique.

The composition is selected depending on the purpose of the manipulation - elimination of puffiness, whitening or rejuvenation.

After this, the skin areas are treated with a special device. Sometimes the exposure temperature reaches a maximum of -20º. When the cold therapy ends, a moisturizing mask with a soothing effect is applied to the face.

The average duration of one session is 30-60 minutes. Thanks to the use of local anesthesia, the procedure is painless and does not cause any discomfort. Cryolifting feels similar to a massage with ice cubes.

Unlike mesotherapy, here the drugs are administered without the use of a needle. To moisturize and improve tone, gels with collagen are used, and to obtain an antioxidant effect, mixtures with lifting results are used. Cryolifting products are unique in that they replicate the composition of skin cells and consist of various vitamins.

Healing period

After the procedure, only slight redness is possible, which goes away on its own within a few hours. If hyperpigmentation lasts longer, it means that the patient has a cold allergy, and therapy is contraindicated for him. No special care is required after the procedure.

The impact occurs using a wave; the frequency is selected depending on aesthetic goals. The course consists of 3–5 sessions, the method is effective for tired skin with unhealthy color, during the first age-related changes.

Effect

Exposure to low temperatures leads to spasm and dilation of blood vessels. Rapid narrowing and increasing the lumen strengthens the walls, restores nutritional processes, saturates the blood and skin with nutrients. The vascular system responds to cooling by preventing rosacea and increasing the skin's resistance to the aggressive influence of the external environment.

Cryolifting restores microcirculation and saturates the treated area with oxygen. The procedure allows you to improve the color of the epidermis and relieve fatigue. Anesthesia during exposure to cold temporarily disrupts nerve impulses, relaxes the fibers, as a result of which it smoothes out facial wrinkles, normalizes the contour, and increases elasticity.

After completing the intensive course, deep folds are significantly reduced, the elasticity of the epidermis is increased, pores are narrowed, the normal functionality of the sebaceous glands is restored, bags and dark circles under the organs of vision are eliminated, and water balance is improved.

With the help of cryolifting, skin cells are saturated with useful elements. However, this method is not suitable for eliminating hyperpigmentation, acne, demodex, serious age-related changes, a double chin or a displaced oval contour due to low efficiency.
