Layer-by-layer facial skin tightening in therapeutic cosmetology

Hardware and injection methods of skin tightening can significantly improve its condition and provide a noticeable and sustainable lifting effect for a long period of time without surgery.

At the same time, anti-aging non-surgical lifting procedures have a number of advantages over plastic surgery:

• less invasive
• using local anesthesia instead of general anesthesia
• no preliminary preparation or analysis required
• fewer contraindications (minimally invasive cosmetology may be the only alternative for patients who are contraindicated for surgery)
• shorter rehabilitation period (you will not fall out of your usual rhythm of life)
• there is no need to wear bandages after the procedure

The choice of one or another facelift method in consultation with a cosmetologist is made depending on the task identified by the patient.

To achieve a noticeable and lasting rejuvenation effect, the Gradient clinic uses hardware (laser, radio frequency) and injection methods of facelift:

Hardware (laser) lifting:

The result is noticeable from the first procedure; for a noticeable, sustainable skin tightening effect, a course of 2-4 procedures is usually used, depending on the desired degree of skin rejuvenation. Fractional thermolysis has almost no contraindications; it can affect even the most delicate areas of the body - neck, eyelids, chest, inner thighs.

• too tight, dry and flaky;
• there are capillaries near the surface, so the face may often turn red;
• due to insufficient amount of melanin, the face is too pale;
• bruises often appear under the eyes because veins are visible there;
• Irritation may occur due to a reaction to new cosmetics, smoky air, salt water, wind or frost, or the sun.
