Double action is much better than a precise strike.To ensure that your skin transformation and rejuvenation program is twice as effective, experts have selected 5 pairs of the best hardware, injection and plastic procedures that produce a true wow effect when working in duo.
1. Phototherapy + fractional laser
The technique invented by doctors is called Photofractional and combines two sequential effects on the skin: IPL light (phototherapy) and fractional laser.Thanks to the influence of IPL light, it is possible to eliminate pigmentation (often appearing after sun exposure) and the fractional laser triggers collagen synthesis;Therefore, it is possible to restore skin fibers that are destroyed under the influence of UV rays.
The Photofractional procedure is quite aggressive: it gives the effect of a slightly sunburned face (redness, peeling).Mild swelling persists for 1-2 days.After a week, the peeling disappears, the skin becomes smoother, more even and reflects light well.
The combination of two different effects gives an impressive result after a single procedure.First, the skin is exposed to IPL light, but with gentler parameters than those used for a stand-alone phototherapy procedure (removal of age spots), they are selected individually.Anesthesia is then applied and the skin is treated with a fractional laser.Phototherapy eliminates pigments, vascular mesh, whitens and gently stimulates collagen synthesis.The laser penetrates very deeply and "stimulates" the synthesis of new skin fibers.The final effect will be noticeable in 1-2 months.On average, it is necessary to carry out 1 to 3 procedures (the frequency varies from person to person) with an interval of one month between them.After the procedures, you should definitely protect your face with SPF creams.
2. Facial massage + botulinum toxin injections
Facial massage, whether manual or hardware, is one of those procedures that should be used to prevent age-related changes even at a fairly young age.It also gives a good effect in correcting already emerging age-related changes (pronounced nasolabial folds, "pride wrinkles" and longitudinal wrinkles on the forehead, "crow's feet" in the eye area, loss of facial contour, double chin).Massage allows you to work and tone relaxed muscles or, on the contrary, relax tense ones.Thanks to this we achieve the effect of reducing the severity of wrinkles and improving the oval of the face.The massage is performed in one course (an average of 10 procedures, two per week), after which facial wrinkles can be corrected using botulinum toxin injections.In this case, it will be possible to get by with a smaller amount of the drug and obtain a more pronounced result.
3. Fractional laser + PRP therapy
Fractional laser is one of the most popular and effective anti-aging procedures.This is a gentle but deep skin renewal using a laser, which reduces the depth of wrinkles, restores uniform color, smoothness and density of the skin and initiates the natural process of forming fresh collagen and elastin.The principle of operation of the device allows you to achieve this effect: a thin laser beam penetrates the skin to a certain depth and forms therapeutic microdamages with a diameter of no more than 0.2 mm.This effect destroys old collagen and stimulates the formation of new cells responsible for the rapid restoration of damaged areas.It is thanks to this that the skin is tightened and its texture improves.The fractional rejuvenation procedure can help if you notice sagging skin and fine wrinkles, dislike uneven complexion and enlarged pores, or if you have age spots or post-acne scars.
Despite the short rehabilitation period after laser exposure, the full and final effect will appear after 3 to 5 sessions.At the same time, rejuvenation mechanisms are activated just a week after the first procedure (and will continue to intensify), and the effect lasts up to 1.5 years.
It is best to combine fractional laser procedures with PRP therapy - injections of your own blood plasma.Plasma contains platelets, which speed skin recovery after laser exposure.In addition, it also contains growth factors that additionally stimulate fibroblasts, cells that produce new collagen and elastin fibers.By combining these two procedures, you can get a more pronounced anti-aging effect.
4. Facial skin lifting + filler or autofat injections
With the help of plastic surgery, a lifting effect can be achieved, but, unfortunately, wrinkles cannot be completely eliminated.After plastic surgery, for example, wrinkles remain around the mouth, as well as “marionette lines” (so-called “pain lines”).To make them less noticeable, filler injections are used in the area of the nasolabial folds, lips and cheekbones.An alternative to filler injections is the lipofilling procedure, in which your own fat cells are used to fill the volume.They are extracted with a syringe from certain areas of the body (abdomen, inner thighs, knees) and injected in small quantities into the desired area.This must be done very carefully, because the main task is to ensure that the fat cells adapt to the right place and take root.The advantage of lipofilling over filler injections is obvious: fillers must be renewed every year, while fat cells remain in the injected area for years.Furthermore, in the case of lipofilling, a possible allergic reaction that may occur to the injected fillers is excluded.
5. Blepharoplasty + laser procedures
To a greater extent, this combination will be suitable for lower eyelid surgery, where the muscles are “welded” to the skin and it is impossible to remove all the excess.This is why laser treatment of this area is indicated three weeks after surgery.The laser has a stimulating effect on the skin, reducing it and activating the synthesis of new collagen and elastin, after which the skin thickens and becomes more elastic.One session may be enough to obtain a pronounced effect.
Often this technique is used in cases where it is necessary to get rid of hernial sacs (this problem, by the way, can also bother quite young people).The operation to remove such hernias is performed transconjunctivally (through a small incision on the side of the mucous membrane of the lower eyelid), and after removing the fat bags, excess skin remains that must be tightened;For these purposes a laser is needed.
