Lifting is a series of procedures that allow you to get rid of external skin imperfections. For different reasons (aging, photo - aging, improper care, and so on), each person over time, the skin loses its elasticity. Mimic muscles supporting the skin weaken.

And the skin under the action of gravity slips down - wrinkles and wrinkles are formed. Naturally, there is an idea: how to improve the appearance of the skin and get rid of the shortcomings. The first correct step in this direction is to analyze the different methods of lifting the face skin and choose the most suitable for yourself in accordance with the requests and opportunities.

At home, facial skin lifting can be performed quite effectively and achieve an excellent result. But under these conditions, for a long time (2 - 4 months), self-discipline is also needed - for regular procedures.

Facial skin lifting should begin with the selection of appropriate cosmetics and daily procedures. The selection of cosmetics - a purely individual matter. But there are also general rules: cosmetics should be selected in accordance with the type of skin and have in its composition a minimum of unnecessary and harmful substances. The transition from "wrong" to "correct" care will already give a tangible external effect. Next, you need to train yourself to do once a week to do peeling and deep cleansing of the skin using a non-traumatic method - using special masks. Having mastered and organized daily skin care, you can start to connect additional methods of home facial skin lifting.

Darsonvalization is a way to affect the skin and body with high frequency currents. Despite the fact that this method was proposed quite a long time ago (in 1892 by the French physicist Darsonval), he still enjoys great popularity in connection with his efficiency and simplicity. On sale there are very convenient devices for local darsonvalization - they have an acceptable price, small size and are easy to use.

Under the influence of Darsonval currents, the influx of arterial blood to the skin (arterial blood brings nutrients and oxygen) and the outflow of venous blood and lymph (due to this, the puffiness is reduced and the products of the vital activity of the cells are eliminated). This procedure promotes skin rejuvenation, increases its turgor, elasticity, inhibits the development of senile wrinkles and folds. Thanks to darsonvalization, the function of sebaceous glands is normalized.

Skin lifting with masks. Modern face masks usually have a complex effect, but if desired, you can choose a mask of more targeted influence - against wrinkles, flow, nourishing, cleansing and so on. Masks in which the active ingredient are therapeutic mud (mud sediments of saline reservoirs or therapeutic mud of the Dead Sea), have the maximum health effect. Under the influence of the mud mask, the vessels expand, blood circulation and lymph flow improve, metabolism, tissue respiration. The drug normalizes the tone of facial (facial) muscles, smoothes wrinkles.

Noticeable effect can be achieved only with systemic procedures: 2-3 times a week, total - 10-15 procedures. Apply the mask to the previously cleaned skin and keep a strictly certain time (specified by the manufacturer). Flush the mask with movements from the bottom up. A very good effect is given by the mask, if applied after a massage.

Facial skin lifting with classical self-massage. Self-massage improves the supply of facial skin with nutritious elements, tones up facial muscles, helps remove unnecessary substances from subcutaneous fat and removes dead cells from the skin surface. By activating the outflow of venous blood and lymph, self-massage reduces flabbiness and swelling of the facial skin. Thanks to such a complex effect of self-massage, it must be used for face lifting.

Self-massage should be done 2-3 times a week, in total - 15-20 procedures, after cleansing the skin of the face and hands. Duration of the procedure - 2-3 minutes.

The forehead stroking is made with the tips of 3-4 fingers from the superciliary arches to the scalp.

Stroking of the upper part of the cheeks produces the tips of 2-3 fingers from the side of the nose to the temporal areas.

Stroking the middle part of the cheeks produces a palmar surface 2-3 fingers from the middle of the upper lip to the tragus of the ear.

Stroking the lower part of the cheeks produces a palmar surface of all fingers in the direction from the middle of the chin to the earlobe.

The submaxillary region is massaged with the back surface of all the fingers.

Each stroking should be repeated 5-7 times.

Facial skin lifting with peeling. The effect of skin tightening in this case is achieved due to this peculiarity of the organism: after receiving microtraumas, the skin begins to recover very actively, while getting rid of various kinds of defects (wrinkles, pigment spots, etc.). At home, you can successfully do mechanical face cleaning and surface chemical pilling.
