Full Face procedure in cosmetology: what are the indications and advantages of the technique


Women always want to look beautiful and young. They couldn’t come up with anything to avoid getting old! They got a magic mirror and even learned a rhyme: “My light, mirror, say...”. You have grown rejuvenating apples - eat as much as you want. The magic fan was invented. I fanned myself once – it hasn’t happened for ten years; one more time - and twenty disappeared...

It's a pity that all this only happens in fairy tales. And then: you need to be careful with apples, the action is untested; If you don’t wave your fan too much, you might wake up as a baby; in the mirror, too, some Snow White looms behind her and strives to take away the primacy of beauty...

And here you still need to do without witchcraft! And they do it! Peels, liftings, Botox, photorejuvenation, laser procedures, ultrasound therapy... Even surgical intervention is not scary!

Specifics of FULL FACE

When visiting a cosmetologist, a woman knows exactly what she doesn’t like about her appearance: wrinkles, nasolabial folds, nasal tears, drooping corners of the lips, a blurred oval face or something else.

The doctor will not only listen carefully to the patient and fulfill the requirements. His main task is to analyze and find an effective set of procedures that will provide a natural harmonious result, a minimum recovery period and will reduce the likelihood of side effects.

That is, it is not enough to be a first-class specialist in terms of technical implementation of procedures; you need to be able to analyze the features of each specific appearance and take an individual approach to solving assigned tasks.


Features of botulinum therapy “Full face”

This is the characteristic of the FULL FACE technique. Its task is not just to achieve a positive result in a specific area, but to rejuvenate the face as a whole, shape the contours and volumes of the face, smooth out wrinkles, and work out a set of measures to improve the health, nutrition and hydration of the skin.

Reviews of "Fill Face"

“I decided to leave my opinion on the Israeli filler “Fill Face Universal”. My cosmetologist recommended that I inject it into the nasolabial folds to get rid of wrinkles. I couldn’t find any reviews about this gel on the Internet. But since I trust my doctor, I happily agreed to try this remedy and did not regret my decision.

This is not the first time I have filled wrinkles with filler. I tested Surgiderm and Juvederm. But lately I noticed that the second one lasted for a maximum of three months. This indicates a deterioration in the quality of the gel.

As the cosmetologist told me, the Fill Face Universal filler (23 mg/ml) lasts eight months.

There is absolutely nothing complicated in the procedure. The doctor, using a disposable syringe with one milliliter of gel, makes a couple of injections into the nasolabial folds. Personally, I did not have any anesthesia at all during this procedure. The sensations were quite tolerable. And almost immediately all the wrinkles disappeared.

After the remedy has been administered, it is forbidden to engage in sports for four days, and you also cannot go to the sauna or sleep on your stomach.

The drug is harmless and does not cause allergic reactions. In any case, this is what the Israeli manufacturer says. The effect can be fully assessed only after the gel has applied.

My daughter had this filler injected into her lips (also one milliliter). It gave perfect results. My daughter had swelling from the injections for two days. On the third day, the filler fell into place, and the swelling went away. Now her lips have a very natural look, they just have extra volume. Of course, the daughter is very happy that she got this exact effect.”

(Galina, 51 years old)

“After the scorching Thai sun, my skin was in dire need of restoration. I went to my cosmetologist, who suggested that I try injections with Fill Face Universal filler. I agreed, because the skin was really in terrible condition, and something urgently needed to be done about it.

The injections were quite painful for me. And this despite the fact that the doctor used anesthesia before administering the injections. But this is my usual reaction to such manipulations, so I wasn’t particularly surprised.

What really scared me was that my face was red and swollen for two days. But then it passed, its contour became clearer, the skin acquired special tenderness, velvety, softness, moisture and smoothness. Some wrinkles disappeared, which surprised me, because for some reason other fillers could not cope with this problem. This is not the first time I have received anti-aging injections.

I was simply bombarded with compliments after this trip to the cosmetologist! I’m very pleased and recommend it to everyone who, like me, has suffered a lot of damage to their skin after a long holiday in a southern country!”

(Natalia, 34 years old)

What FULL FACE correction can do

An integrated approach to each specific case helps to solve a number of problems that patients come with:

  • Smooth out facial wrinkles that appear due to the activity of facial muscles. We are talking about nasolabial folds, forehead wrinkles, crow's feet, eyebrow wrinkles and rabbit wrinkles.
  • Restore facial contours lost with age in the area of ​​the chin, cheeks, and cheekbones.
  • Improve skin hydration, that is, supply the skin with moisture, solving the problem of dehydration.

To achieve these goals, methods and injections that are relevant to him are selected for each patient. Even a novice cosmetologist knows that combination therapy can give wonderful results. Specialists use preparations based on hyaluronic acid and botulinum toxin. Both formulations have proven their safety and effectiveness when administered to any area of ​​the face.

Indications

  1. If you need to restore your skin after the negative effects of environmental factors (frost, sun, air conditioning and other reasons).
  2. If it is necessary to prepare the skin for contouring.
  • If necessary, in the preparation and rehabilitation of the skin after aggressive effects: medium peeling, laser influence, plastic surgery, dermabrasion.
  1. When restoring the elasticity and firmness of the skin.
  2. To eliminate signs of skin aging.
  3. In order to solve the problem of dehydration and dry skin.

Two important components

Let's consider the main functions of both substances, on the basis of which the FULL FACE rejuvenation technique is based

What is the purpose of hyaluronic acid fillers?

  • To replenish volume loss in the cheeks, lips, and cheekbones. This problem most often appears with age or from frequent weight fluctuations, when girls gain weight, lose weight, gain weight again, lose weight again. Such swings lead to sagging of different skin areas with subcutaneous fat.

  • Filling deep wrinkles and creases, such as the nasolacrimal groove and nasolabial folds.
  • Creating a clear oval face: shaping the jawline, correcting the lower jaw line.

That is, the main task of this part of the technique is to straighten the oval of the face by replenishing the volume.

How does botulinum toxin work?

This procedure is rather an addition to the work of fillers. It is carried out very superficially, with microinjections of diluted botulinum toxin. Its effect is not so pronounced, but it provides lifting throughout the entire correction area and wonderfully complements the result of hyaluronic acid. This correction stage allows you to:

  • Smooth out crow's feet, bunny lines, imperfections in the brow area and forehead.
  • Smooth out the subcutaneous muscle of the neck. Plasma hypertonicity leads to drooping of the lower part of the face, marionette lines appear, jowls and pronounced vertical bands are formed, due to which the neck has a constantly tense appearance. Thanks to microinjections, she relaxes, the oval of the face is restored, and the neck becomes smoother.

  • Relax the muscles responsible for drooping the corners of the mouth. Expressions of fatigue and dissatisfaction disappear from the face, muscle tension is relieved.
  • Narrow the face by working the chewing muscles.
  • Relax the muscle on the chin, after which it becomes softer and more delicate.

The effect of using the gel

Dry skin receives good nutrition, thus solving the problem of dry skin. Improves the appearance of skin with signs of aging. The firmness and elasticity of the skin is restored.

If procedures involving aggressive influence have damaged the condition of the skin, then the Fill Face filler revives it.

Thanks to injections with this filler, the skin can be prepared for contouring. In addition, in this way the skin is perfectly restored after prolonged exposure to negative factors.

What are the benefits of botulinum therapy?

The advantages of this therapy:

  • A set of procedures will help solve not only age-related problems, but also cosmetic imperfections.
  • All actions are aimed at the problems and features of the appearance of each individual patient. Problem areas are analyzed and an action algorithm is developed.
  • An integrated approach involves performing several procedures simultaneously, which saves time and improves results.
  • There is no pain syndrome, tissue atrophy, no side effects or allergic reactions.
  • The procedure is carried out at any time of the year.
  • As a result, the patient receives an effective and lasting result that lasts for a long time.

How is the procedure performed?

First, you need to prepare for the session. To do this, pay attention to a number of actions in a few days:

  • do not sunbathe in the sun or in a solarium;
  • do not drink alcohol;
  • avoid strenuous physical exercise;
  • If possible, avoid taking antibiotics and anticoagulants.

The procedure is performed after disinfection of the facial skin and administration of a local anesthetic. It is virtually painless, thanks to anesthesia and ultra-thin needles. Redness or slight swelling may occur in some areas, but will subside fairly quickly.

For a better and even distribution of the injected funds, it makes sense to grimace every 20 minutes during the first 5 hours. But it is absolutely forbidden to touch the places where the drug was injected with your hands, much less massage them. We are just waiting for the maximum result.

During the first day after botulinum therapy, the restrictions that were in effect before the FULL FACE correction session remain the same. This applies to both alcoholic beverages and physical education. It is worth protecting yourself from heat and sunlight and try not to take antibiotics.

Some zones will change almost immediately, but the perfect result will come after two weeks and will last at least eight months.

The author's method of Full face injection correction using fillers from the Stylage line to correct involutional changes in soft tissues in patients with Central Asian face type.

Introduction

Individuals of the Central Asian type are characterized by their own characteristics of the development of involutionary changes. A flatter facial skeleton and features of the fat packets in the upper and middle thirds lead to the development of deep nasolabial folds, drooping corners of the mouth, and the appearance of pronounced marionette lines.

Clinical case

The patient, 57 years old, complained of sagging skin, drooping soft tissues of the middle third of the face, the appearance of deep nasolabial folds and folds on the skin of the upper lip at a distance of 1 cm from the commissure, drooping corners of the mouth, and the severity of marionette lines. She had not previously received aesthetic treatment.

Materials and methods

It was decided to carry out a comprehensive correction that could improve the visualization of those areas of the face that the patient complained about. There were no contraindications for the procedure.

After collecting anamnesis and examination, a procedure plan was drawn up:

  • bolus fixation of soft tissues in the cheek-zygomatic area (prevention of further development of gravitational ptosis),
  • carrying out bioreinforcement of soft tissues using the “honeycomb” technique (restructuring of the dermis and epidermal-dermal junction, improvement of skin tone, indirect lifting effect),
  • leveling of nasolabial folds, folds on the skin of the upper lip, correction of the contour of the corners of the mouth and marionette wrinkles.

Stylage filler from Vivacy was used for the procedure. The products in this line are unique due to the patented HA stabilization system (IPN-like technology), the presence of mannitol in the composition and a variety of options for solving all aesthetic shortcomings that cosmetologists encounter.

Procedure protocol

Stage 1. Skin treatment with 0.05% chlorhexidine solution and application anesthesia with Acriol Pro cream for 45 minutes.

Stage 2. After repeated treatment with chlorhexidine, we make markings in the cheek-zygomatic area: the first line starts from the lateral edge of the eyebrow, descends vertically to the intersection with the lower jaw, the second - from the wing of the nose to the cochlea, the third - a virtual line emphasizing the shape of the cheekbone.

We place the injection points as follows: the first - at the intersection of the first two lines, the second - 1.5 cm medial to the first, the third - 1 cm medial to the first (optional point, we look at the structure of the cheek-zygomatic region), the fourth - 1 cm 5 cm medial from the first.

We choose a product with high viscosity and elasticity - Stylage XL. The volume of filler injected into the point is 0.1–0.2 ml, the total amount is 0.5 ml on one side.

Injection level: supraperiosteal, medial and lateral SOOF. Before administration, we perform an aspiration test by pulling the syringe plunger toward ourselves on the count of “ten.” There should be no blood in the needle or in the cannula of the syringe. After injection, carefully distribute the filler.

Stage 3. Bioreinforcement using the honeycomb technique. We begin to apply markings from the temporal region to the edge of the lower jaw, without going into the skin of the upper lip. The technique consists of hexagons adjacent to each other, open in the infraorbital region. The rib length is 13 mm needle length, the needle diameter is 27G. The injection level is the reticular layer of the dermis, the border is the dermis-hypodermis. We carry out the procedure with Stylage M, 1 ml on each side, on average 0.01 ml per injection.

Stage 4. Correcting nasolabial folds. The drug Stylage L, linear retrograde injection, fan-shaped - at the wing of the nose and one injection below, level - the lower layer of the dermis, border - dermis-hypodermis. On the right - 0.35 ml, on the left - 0.3 ml. At the level of the corner of the mouth, we make an injection along an arc, through the commissure, and deposit 0.01 ml at the level of the corner with the aim of turning it upward.

Stage 5. We pierce the contour of the lip along the border of the skin and dry mucous membrane, the technique is linear retrograde, there is a white stripe above the surface of the needle, which indicates a superficial insertion. Needle 27G, 13 mm, amount of drug - 0.01 ml per side.

Stage 6. Working with puppet wrinkles. The technique is linear retrograde, according to the “fan”, “lattice” scheme. The drug Stylage L, the average amount is 0.2–0.25 ml on each side.

Stage 7. After completion of the procedure, carefully distribute the drug according to the natural contour of the face. It is possible to apply Traumeel S ointment, and it can also be applied at home.

After the procedure, the patient should limit facial expressions, physical activity and visiting the pool on the first day, as well as visiting the sauna and solarium for 3-4 weeks.

The use of Stylage fillers allows you to obtain a natural and prolonged result with minimal severity of aseptic inflammation and the development of adverse events.

Correction results

Using the technique described above, we were able to eliminate all the aesthetic shortcomings that the patient complained about. In this case, we used 4 ml of Stylage (1XL, 1L, 2M). The patient was very pleased with the result.
