Manual removal of facial traces of the sebaceous glands and other types of pollution is very popular today. But a more effective and safe, as well as less uncomfortable alternative to manual peeling is a hardware cleaning of the epidermis. This term combines a wide range of different cosmetic procedures that are performed by special devices.

Advantages and disadvantages

Like any cosmetic procedure, hardware peeling has its advantages and disadvantages. It is important to note that the positive aspects of this variant of exposure to the dermis are much greater.

The advantages of hardware cleaning include:

  • painlessness of almost all procedures;
  • minimizing the likelihood of damage to healthy tissue due to exposure to a special device;
  • the ability to individually adjust the instrument for each patient;
  • minimum rehabilitation period, not implying the implementation of complex rehabilitation measures;
  • effective and lasting result of the procedure.

The most significant drawback of certain types of hardware cleaning is the presence of a large list of contraindications.

The negative sides also include the need to take a long course, consisting of several sessions, and the high cost of peeling.

Indications and contraindications

Facial cleansing should be used if:

  • persistent contamination of the epidermis;
  • there are comedones, sebaceous plugs, acne, acne without signs of inflammation;
  • there is a predisposition to increased sebum secretion;
  • hyperpigmentation appeared (redness and various spots on the skin);
  • too wide pores;
  • the color of the skin has worsened;
  • age-related changes in the epidermis began to appear;
  • the texture of the dermis has become uneven (bumpy, with “potholes” or scars).

However, you need to abandon this method of facial cleansing, if there is at least one of these contraindications:

  • skin disease (herpes, dermatitis, eczema);
  • purulent inflammation;
  • strong peeling of the upper layers of the epithelium;
  • fungal or tick-borne skin lesions;
  • mechanical damage to the treated surface (wounds, scratches);
  • hypersensitivity of the dermis.

The above list combines common limitations. Separate types of hardware cleaning have their own prohibitions.

Varieties

So that the most delicate facial skin breathes health and glows with youth, visitors to beauty salons resort to different types of hardware cleaning.

Allocate:

  • vacuum cleaning;
  • scrapbooking;
  • ultrasonic cleaning;
  • galvanic;
  • diamond polishing;
  • cryotherapy.

Vacuum Peeling

Among cosmetic professionals and their clients, it is considered one of the mildest and most effective procedures for superficial cleansing of the dermis and stimulation of blood circulation in the tissues. The procedure does not cause pain, does not injure the skin. A special apparatus creates a vacuum effect that opens the pores, “pulls” mud masses out of them, and simplifies the passage of dead cells. The number of blackheads and papules resulting from clogging of pores is reduced, skin texture and its color are improved.

And although there is an opinion that vacuum peeling entails the appearance of stretch marks, on the contrary, it improves skin tone and restores facial contours.

Meanwhile, this method of cleaning has disadvantages. They cannot remove deep dirt and achieve the same effect as with manual cleaning. There are contraindications.

The vacuum procedure is not recommended for:

  • weak vessels and too sensitive skin;
  • dry dermis;
  • vitriol and acne;
  • inflammatory processes;
  • skin diseases of fungal origin;
  • ARI and infections.

Brossage

For this method, you need a special device with nozzles in the form of brushes. The latter quickly rotate in different directions, due to which the dead and dead cells of the dermis are removed. After the procedure, the skin is renewed, blood circulation and cell nutrition improves.

Ultrasonic cleaning

She copes with such problems as comedones, fat, dead cells, particles of makeup, clogged pores. According to experts, this is the easiest skin manipulation of all existing ones, since it tidies up only the upper layer of the epithelium, without affecting its deep layers. As a result, the skin is naturally moisturized, blood circulation improves, the relief is leveled, the dermis becomes smooth, without defects.

It is worth clarifying that ultrasonic peeling does not cause pain and discomfort.

A huge plus of it is that after such a cleaning, even the slightest trace (redness, wounds) does not remain on the skin. Ultrasonic peeling is suitable for all skin types. After it, the pores become not so noticeable, facial wrinkles and shallow wrinkles are smoothed out, the skin integuments become velvety and elastic. The result of ultrasonic cleaning lasts one and a half weeks. To consolidate the effect obtained, after some time, the procedure must be repeated.

Despite the effectiveness and a number of advantages, ultrasonic facial cleansing has quite a few contraindications.

It is impossible to carry out the procedure with:

  • epilepsy, facial neuritis, nervous disorders;
  • the presence of silicone implants and metal crowns on the teeth;
  • oncology;
  • fever;
  • pathology of the cardiovascular system;
  • violation of the integrity of skin tissues, fungal or dermatological diseases;
  • bronchial asthma;
  • the presence of a pacemaker, intrauterine device.

Galvanic (current) cleaning

This is a popular area in cosmetology related to the category of delicate procedures. Cleansing is due to the impact on the epidermis of light pulses of electric current, which remove pollution of any origin. All substances located deep in the skin are removed on its surface, interact with previously applied cosmetic solution and turn into soap.

In addition, galvanic current reduces vascular permeability and oily skin, increases tone.

Current cleaning, like previous versions of hardware peeling, has its own list of contraindications.

It is better not to use electricity when:

  • bronchial asthma;
  • increased dryness of the skin;
  • pregnancy
  • oncology;
  • epilepsy;
  • pathology of the endocrine gland;
  • autoimmune disease;
  • infection, fever;
  • violation of the integrity of the skin (moles, numerous acne).

Diamond grinding

This is an effective peeling option for severe inflammatory processes on the skin. Brushing with diamond dust saves from demodex, pink rash, fine wrinkles, vascular nets on the face. As a rule, experts recommend conducting at least three sessions, ideally there should be five in six months.

Cryotherapy

Facial cleansing in this case is carried out using liquid nitrogen. The substance initially narrows the pores, and then provokes their maximum expansion. Cryotherapy is a local type of procedure, as the effect occurs on certain areas of the skin.

Facial cleansing with nitrogen is performed by salons with an impeccable reputation, the working staff of which includes highly qualified specialists. At home, this type of cosmetic procedure can replace ordinary ice. Of course, it is impossible to compare the effectiveness of the procedures. There is much less benefit from frozen water, however, it does exist, and the cost of this type of exposure to the skin is cheap.

Nitrogen cleaning has excellent reviews. With its help, you can permanently get rid of problems such as deep wrinkles, crow's feet, small scars and enlarged pores. It rejuvenates, cleanses, tones and moisturizes the skin.

However, the procedure is undesirable to carry out during pregnancy and children under 16 years of age (cryodestruction can adversely affect the structure of the face).

Procedure Efficiency

Hardware cleaning of the epidermis, regardless of the equipment selected, shows excellent results.

  • eliminates pollution, greasy plugs;
  • removes bumps in the upper layers of the epidermis;
  • eliminates hyperpigmentation, redness, spots;
  • regulates sebum secretion (reduces oily skin);
  • gives the texture of the face smoothness and velvety;
  • accelerates regeneration processes, improves cellular metabolism of nutrients;
  • reduces wrinkles, increases the tone of the dermis;
  • tightens the contour of the face, removes the second chin.

Household cleaning

In order to conduct hardware facial cleansing at home, and not in the cosmetologist’s office, you need to purchase a special device. You should not expect that the purchased device will be as effective as professional counterparts, but you can be sure that even inexperienced actions will not harm the epidermis.

Cleaning in the walls of the house must be done according to the instructions that came with the device. After manipulations, it is necessary to take care of the skin for 2-3 days.

This will avoid undesirable consequences of the procedure (redness, inflammation).

Side effects

Any procedures performed in the cosmetologist’s office, may have unforeseen consequences.

  • Redness and swelling. In a minimal amount, these symptoms may indicate a natural reaction. As a rule, they pass in a day or two after the procedure.If this does not happen, then you need a consultation with a cosmetologist.
  • Infection. The site with the infection is inflamed, acne appears on it. To cure the skin, you need the help of a dermatologist.
  • Scars and bumps. They can appear if the sequence and technology of cleaning are not followed.
  • Health impairment. The list of contraindications is a must-read before choosing a hardware method for removing imperfections from the face.

There can be several reasons for a negative cleaning result.

  • Unprofessional cosmetologist. It is worth paying close attention to the person who will be manipulating the skin of your face. You can read reviews about him, ask patients who have already dealt with the selected specialist.
  • Features of the method. For example, after vacuum peeling, redness and swelling may remain on the face, which is quite normal for this method.
  • Sensitivity. Even from the most gentle method of hardware cleaning, redness can appear on sensitive skin.
  • Post-care. A week and a half after the procedure, you can not visit the bathhouse, sauna, solarium. You also need to abandon any decorative cosmetics. Ignoring these cautions may cause unwanted symptoms on your face.
