Features of the mesotherapy procedure with pineal gland peptides

Every woman who carefully takes care of herself knows about the miraculous effect of peptide-containing cosmetics. It is generally accepted that it restores youth at the cellular level, and skin products containing peptides have a truly amazing effect. At the same time, almost no one knows what the actual principle of action of these substances is.

Peptides: facial injections

About the technique

The “father” of the method of using peptides as an innovative anti-aging agent is the Swiss doctor Paul Niehans. At the beginning of the twentieth century, he became interested in the principle of action of stem cells. The fruit of his research was skin biorevitalization - influencing epidermal cells with the aim of rejuvenating them.

Initially, biorevitalization was actually called the process of peptide effects on the body as a whole. Today, so-called “beauty injections” with a high content of hyaluronic acid have this name. The reason for this confusion is that peptides are included in all injection formulations to maintain youth - meso-cocktails, fillers, biorevitalization compositions, which affect the skin condition many times more effectively than conventional products for external use. At the same time, peptides are often added to various creams and serums for everyday skin care.

Peptides are contained in all “beauty injections”

• Active ingredients: biomimetic peptides, copper tripeptide-1, amino acids and minerals.
• Age category: used for preventive purposes in patients over 30 years of age.
• Therapeutic method: introduced under the skin by performing mesotherapy or biorevitalization.
• Action: smoothing out small facial wrinkles and the first age-related furrows, preventing the appearance of deep folds (nasolabial, marionette, nasolacrimal), stimulating the growth of new healthy dermal cells, increasing skin elasticity, optimizing water balance, enhanced hydration, activation of collagen and elastin production.
• Indications: the cocktail is used to prevent aging in young patients in order to awaken the natural barrier functions of the skin. Also indicated for dehydration, excessive porosity, acne proneness, and photoaging.

About peptides

Over time, the epidermis tends to become thinner, retain moisture worse, stretch and fold into wrinkles. Proteins are considered to be the main allies in the fight against age-related changes.

Absolutely every woman has used creams or other skincare products containing proteins such as collagen, elastin, and keratin throughout her life. However, largely due to aggressive advertising, few people know that the effect occurs only on the surface of the skin, therefore, the effect concerns only the upper layer of the dermis. It quickly disappears after using the miracle remedy.

Note! Peptides are also proteins, but, unlike their “brothers,” they have a unique feature: their molecules are so small that they are able to penetrate into the deep layers of the skin.

Peptides are of natural and artificial origin; they are amino acids, between which there is a unique connection. In fact, they are protein chains with the ability to have a healing effect.

The basis of every process in the human body is the effect of peptides. They trigger cellular renewal processes. When these proteins “give a command,” the body responds and begins to actively produce natural peptides, thereby rejuvenating itself.

How do peptides work?

Dermaheal HL

• Active components: a growth factor complex consisting of three peptide compounds, copper tripeptide-1, protein compounds, a multivitamin complex, minerals and amino acids.
• Age category: any.
• Therapeutic method: classic injection mesotherapy (use of mesoscooters is possible);
• Action: hair thickening, awakening dormant follicles, stopping diffuse alopecia (hair loss), renewing the structure along the entire length, activating growth.
• Indications: diffuse or focal (cluster) alopecia of non-hormonal origin in women and men, depletion of bulbs, the appearance of premature gray hair, problems with the scalp (dandruff, oily or dry seborrhea, etc.).

What effect do peptides have on the epidermis?

The main tasks of peptides are:

• control over melanin production;
• increasing the density of the dermis;
• impact on the production of natural proteins in the body;
• launching the cell renewal process;
• elimination of scars and post-acne;
• stimulation of blood circulation and protection of the skin from external aggressive factors;
• regulation of the process of production of intercellular substance.

Peptides perform a lot of important functions

The cause of wrinkles is a decrease in the natural firmness and elasticity of the skin due to a slowdown in the production of collagen in the body. Peptides act as assistants: they trigger the production of elastin and collagen, resulting in skin rejuvenation. It becomes more toned, fresh, and the depth of wrinkles decreases.

Peptides trigger active production of elastin and collagen in the body

Peptides have anti-inflammatory and wound healing effects. It is this feature that makes the effects of hormonal drugs and antibiotics so effective. These products can eliminate scarring on the surface of the skin if applied within fourteen days after the problem occurs.

In cosmetology, the beneficial properties of peptides are actively used in facial skin rejuvenation procedures. Peptides help eliminate wrinkles, increase skin elasticity, and tighten facial contours. These proteins also do an excellent job of preventing age-related changes. That is why experts recommend starting to use peptide-containing products as early as possible.

This is interesting! If you start using skincare products containing peptides at a young age, they will subsequently act more effectively.

Who is peptide therapy suitable for?

The procedure involves the use of native methods that are common in cosmetology. They are responsible for restoring and launching natural healing and cell rejuvenation. They become more resistant to the negative influences that go through their life period. Additionally, complexes are used that make cells resistant to ultraviolet radiation and other influences.

According to reviews, peptides in facial cosmetology accumulate. It is important to pause for several months between different procedures to allow the skin to rest and recover.

Peptides are responsible for most of the internal processes and also control the condition of the human body. There are various drugs and medicines, the choice of which is trusted to specialists who have knowledge. It is important to consider what peptides are combined with in cosmetics. This will allow you to select a complex to suit the requirements of each patient.

Peptides – the key to youth or just another invention?

Peptides look like compounds of several proteins. They are small in size, thanks to which they are able to penetrate into the deepest layers of the skin.

Despite the fact that these proteins were discovered in the recent past, they have taken a strong position in anti-aging cosmetology. Women who have undergone procedures using peptides note an increase in skin tone, a decrease in wrinkles, and a more refreshed appearance in general.

The result is noticeable after one or two procedures using peptides

There are seven groups of peptides known to perform completely different tasks.

Note! Cosmetologists use several types of peptides at once, enhancing the effect of the procedures. The percentage of active substance content in the formulations ranges from 15 to 25 percent - it all depends on the end goal. This application allows you to get the best possible rejuvenation result.

Why choose peptide complexes?

1. They provide a deep rejuvenating and restorative effect;
2. They have a prolonged effect;
3. They undergo powerful laboratory macro-purification;
4. Do not contain enhancers (amplifiers that can disrupt the DNA structure);
5. Absolutely safe and biologically compatible with skin cells.

The two-layer nanoencapsulation technique, which is used in the manufacture of products, provides not only a pronounced result, but also its accumulation with prolongation.

The cosmetology department of the multidisciplinary medical center uses exclusively high-quality patented products. Our qualified cosmetologists prefer Dermaheal peptide preparations, which have already established themselves in the global cosmeceutical market as reliable, safe and effective cocktails. These products are suitable only for professional use and are multicomponent injection complexes designed for schematic (course) use.

The principle of operation of products containing peptides

Before studying the effects of peptides in cosmetic procedures, it is necessary to consider in more detail the process they are aimed at combating.

Aging is a natural process during which wrinkles and age spots appear, the elasticity of the skin decreases, and its thinning occurs. It can be accelerated by environmental influences, poor lifestyle, bad habits, and stress. Aging occurs in all layers of the skin, so to combat it, it is not enough to act only on the surface of the skin.

Targeting just the top layer of skin is not enough to combat aging.

Important! The main sign of aging is a decrease in protein production. Therefore, peptides are able to return the skin to its original appearance.

At the moment, cosmetologists recognize that the most effective measure to combat age-related changes is precisely cosmetics containing peptides. These products can visually eliminate signs of aging in a short period of time. Such cosmetics have high prices due to the complexity of the process of artificially obtaining peptides and their effective effect on the body.

Cosmetologists note that the most effective method of combating aging is the use of products with peptides

This is interesting! To obtain visible results, you should use peptide-containing cosmetics twice a day for two months.

Why does the area around the eyes age so quickly?

The skin in the eyelid area has several characteristic features that make it extremely vulnerable to negative age-related changes.

Its thickness is almost 4 times less than in other areas of the face. And the load falls on her much more. Any change in facial expressions, blinking, squinting – people perform these actions all the time, and it is due to them that sagging and wrinkles appear much faster. A small number of sebaceous glands and a very thin layer of fat lead to constant problems with hydration - and dryness further accelerates the aging process. The eyelids and adjacent skin have virtually no support in the form of bone structures. The edges of the orbit end at some distance from the eyeball, and the space between them is filled with muscles and loose fatty tissue. The vessels under the eyes are located very close to the surface. Their lumen is easily pinched due to edema, increased tone of facial muscles, and excess fluid intake into the body, which creates favorable conditions for the development of edema and the appearance of characteristic dark circles.

Preparations for injections

Regarding injection preparations containing peptides, it is recommended to study the reviews of professional cosmetologists. Each of them insists on the importance of containing preservatives in such products. This is necessary to prevent the proliferation of infections and viruses in the solution.

Which peptides will be administered depends on the condition of the skin

Important! Any of the peptides listed above can be used for introduction into the deep layers of facial skin. It all depends on the purpose of the injections and the condition of the skin.

The product must be kept in a vacuum. The most popular drugs are the following:

• "Mezoeye" ("Mezoeye") - intended only for use in the area around the eyes. Manufactured using advanced technologies, thanks to which it has earned the love of specialists;

Means "Mezoeye"

• "Dermaheal" (Dermahil) - this drug has a long-lasting effect due to the strengthening of the composition with proteins. It also does not require increased dosage, regular use and is not addictive. The only drawback is the high cost;

Dermaheal product

• "DMAE" - this product is approved for use without age restrictions, it acts quickly - the effect is noticeable after the first session. Smoothes wrinkles, tightens the facial contour, tones muscles, maintaining active facial expressions. There are many counterfeits on the market, so you need to be vigilant.

Important! The injection drug must be selected by a cosmetologist; this determines the success of the procedure.

Mesotherapy at home –

Mesotherapy at home is possible using special devices. The most effective is the use of a fractional mesotherapy device called DermaPen. This device is easy to use and costs only 6,000 rubles, which is quite a bit compared to the cost of a full course of mesotherapy. A cheaper version of this device are mesoscooters.

The latter are also effective for solving aesthetic problems, but due to some features of mesoscooters (you can read about them at the link below) - when used regularly, they lead to roughening of the facial skin. But the use of DermaPen does not lead to such consequences. In addition, both of these fractional mesotherapy devices are more effective against atrophic acne scars than the classic injection technique. However, you can get the maximum effect here - from a combination of DermaPen + injections of nucleotides and matrikin peptides.

There are also devices for needle-free mesotherapy based on iontophoresis (Fig. 16), which can be bought in special medical stores. With this technique, the skin is not injured by needles, and the device increases the permeability of the skin for mesotherapy serums. For iontophoresis procedures, mesoscooters and DermaPen, specially designed serums containing only low molecular weight active substances should be used.

How is the procedure done?

The technique of administering injections with peptides, in general, is no different from that used for rejuvenation with other “beauty injections”.

Of course, you will have to prepare in advance - choose a clinic and a doctor, study reviews. It is not recommended to contact the first cosmetologist you come across - this is fraught with serious consequences, deterioration of the health and appearance of the skin.

You should carefully choose a clinic and cosmetologist

Note! 3-4 days before the procedure you need to avoid alcohol, smoking, and taking any medications. It would be a good idea to avoid fatty and fried foods.

At the first visit to the doctor, he will examine the skin of the face and determine whether the patient has any contraindications, for example, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, or pathologies associated with the autoimmune system. By the way, pregnant and lactating women should not undergo the procedure either. Perhaps the cosmetologist will send the patient for tests if this seems necessary to him.

The doctor will examine your facial skin

Stages of the procedure

1. The cosmetologist cleans the patient's face from dirt, dust, and cosmetics. To do this, use antibacterial agents.
2. If the patient expresses a desire, the doctor can numb the facial skin so that discomfort from the injections is not felt. But this is not at all necessary, because the cosmetologist uses a very thin needle, which he inserts only 1-2 mm into the skin, which is why pain is practically not felt. However, everything, of course, depends on the patient’s pain threshold.

3. It is important that the doctor opens the package with the drug in front of the patient, because the drug must be in a vacuum before it is used. After this, the drug is drawn into a syringe, and the doctor begins to administer injections. This happens according to a certain pattern. As a rule, the procedure lasts from 20 to 40 minutes - it all depends on the drug and the desired effect.
4. At the end of the drug administration, the facial skin is disinfected again.

Introduction of peptides

The doctor will explain how to care for your skin after peptide injection and will also set the time for the next procedure. To obtain a long-term effect, from 4 to 7 procedures are performed, depending on the condition of the skin and the individual characteristics of the patient’s body.

Actions after peptide administration

Immediately after the procedure, traces of injections, redness, and swelling may be visible on the face - this is normal. There is no need to do anything about this; such side effects will go away after a day or two.

In the first days after the procedure, redness and marks of injections may be observed on the skin of the face.

In the first 2-3 days after injections with peptides, it is not recommended to use decorative cosmetics. It is also prohibited to visit the solarium or sauna for two weeks.

Note! It is better if you do not touch the skin at all in the first 3-4 days after the procedure. This will avoid irritation.

You should not use cosmetics in the first days after the procedure.

Reviews

Let's look at some reviews about injections with peptides.

Larisa, Moscow

“I chose among different rejuvenation procedures, but chose the use of peptides. The expectations from the procedures were fully met. The contour of the face became clearer, fine wrinkles smoothed out, and the complexion became more uniform. Of course, it is important to choose an experienced cosmetologist who knows all the techniques.”

Most patients respond positively to injections with peptides

Ekaterina, Chelyabinsk

“My mother used peptides. The result was amazing! The skin is refreshed, wrinkles are smoothed out, dryness and tightness are gone. But this is not the main thing - my mother lost her facial muscles, her sleep even returned to normal and her mood appeared! The injections were performed by an experienced cosmetologist, so there were no problems or complications.”
