At the age of 50+ in women, the production of estrogen decreases sharply, which affects the condition of the skin. Facial rejuvenation after 50 years without surgery is possible with the help of cosmetology methods and proper care at home.
Plastic surgery works wonders, but not all women can afford it. But proper skin care at home is available to everyone. The main thing is to be regular and comprehensive.
Daily care program:
- cleaning;
- stimulation?
- moisturizing;
- nutrition.
Twice a week it is worth doing nourishing masks, as well as combining self-massage and exercise for the facial muscles.
The skin care cosmetics set for women aged 50+ is the same as in previous years. But the composition of the funds must be different.
Need:
- get rid of products that dry the skin - alkaline foams for washing, lotions containing alcohol.
- buy protective cosmetics to protect the skin from the negative effects of the sun, wind and frost.
- Replace conventional creams and tonics with anti-aging.
For cleansing and toning you need:
- foam or gel for washing at neutral pH.
- Scrub-gommage (use once in 7-14 days depending on skin type).
- micellar water;
- non-alcoholic tonic.
It is useful to wipe the face with ice cubes - it tones and rejuvenates the skin. It is good to use decoctions of chamomile, succession, linden for the preparation of ice.
Use day and night creams for hydration and nourishment. Separately, you need to buy a cream for the skin of the eyelids, but for the neck you can use the same products as for the face. It is not necessary to buy an expensive cream, medium priced funds are also suitable.
Good anti-aging creams contain:
- AHA and BHA acids.
- vitamins (tocopherol, retinol).
- coenzyme Q10;
- peptides?
- Hyaluronic Acid;
- collagen.
You can buy ready-made masks or make your own. After 50 years, masks with oils, honey, fresh vegetables and fruits are useful. For tightening, home remedies with starch, gelatin and homemade protein are used.
Massage will help you stay young. Ideally it should be done by an experienced beautician, but self-massage is not excluded.
An effective technique is plastic massage. Provides different types of percussion - kneading, stroking, vibrating. The process starts with surface effects, then they pass to the deep kneading.
Basic tricks:
- Caressing. Light caressing movements are performed in the direction of the lines with the least stretching (massage lines).
- The dough is superficial. It is performed with four fingers (except the thumb), a movement similar to the design of a spiral with small turns is performed.
- Deep kneading. Held with all five fingers and palm, the pressure should be more intense.
- drilling. It is done with the fingertips along all the massage lines.
- Vibration. Performed with the lower palm, the movement is directed from the middle of the sternum along the key to the ear and further to the temple.
Before the session, the face is treated with sterile talcum powder - this is necessary to prevent the fingers from slipping over the skin.
Another technique is a complex massage with tablespoons. For the procedure, you need to prepare two containers filled with hot and cold water, a few spoons, cosmetic oil.
The percussion is done from the convex part of the spoon. Caressing, rubbing, light stroking techniques are used. It is recommended to use silver spoons, but you can get the normal ones. Hot oil is applied to the skin before the session. The result is alternated with a cold and hot spoon, the direction of movement is strictly along the massage lines.
An effective way to rejuvenate the face without injections and surgeries is exercise for the facial muscles. Learning how to do exercises at home is not difficult, the main thing is that the lessons are regular.
There are several sets of exercises. Here's one of them (do each move 10 times):
- Take air in your mouth and distill it circularly from one cheek to the other, as if rolling a ball. First clockwise and then counterclockwise.
- Press the corners of your lips firmly with your fingers. Pull your lips forward, as if you want to kiss someone, overcoming the resistance of your fingers.
- Squeeze the outer corners of the eyes with your fingers (with closed eyelids). Open your eyes as wide as possible, raising your eyebrows slightly. Hold this position for 5 seconds, then lower your eyelids and relax your muscles.
- Put three fingers in the area between the eyebrows, press firmly. Try to unite your eyebrows, frown, overcoming the resistance of your fingers.
- Open your mouth and try to pull your lips in, as if hiding them behind your teeth. This movement lifts the chin.
- Squeeze the corners of your lips with your fingers and try to smile broadly.
- Pull your cheeks inwards and then inflate them with air.
During exercise, you may feel a burning sensation on the skin. This is normal as the muscles work and tighten.
The salons offer various ways of rejuvenation after 55 without surgery. These are both traditional methods (massage, masks) and new methods (filler insertion, material exposure).
The essence of the technique of facial and neck rejuvenation without surgery is the performance of skin punctures and the introduction of synthetic threads that create a reinforcing frame. The effect of the process field lasts 3-4 years.
Threaded lifting is recommended for relaxation of the cheeks, formation of a second chin, changes in the contour of the face, appearance of wrinkles.
Polymeric materials, silicone, various acids, platinum, gold are used to make yarns. The diameter of the threads does not exceed the thickness of a human hair. After inserting the thread is not felt and is not visible to others.
The essence of this process is the exposure of the skin to pulsed light. Radiation is a quantum flux provided by explosions. The wavelength used is 400-1400 nm. The result of the procedure does not appear immediately, but 6-8 weeks after the completion of the course. During this period, the collagen framework and skin structure are strengthened, the face is tightened and fine wrinkles are smoothed out.
The light energy heats the tissues and destroys the photosensitive substances. Thus:
- age spots disappear, the skin improves.
- increases turgor.
- enhances the synthesis of hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin.
The technique is not suitable to get rid of all the age-related changes. Other procedures should be used to eliminate deep wrinkles and improve the contour of the face.
Laser repair is a procedure that can stop aging. The essence is the impact on the skin with a laser. The upper layer of cells evaporates, which stimulates regeneration processes.
Rubbing is one of the varieties of peeling. But the effect is realized in the deep layers, compared to the acid peeling. Only a certified master can complete the process.
This is a material process based on the infrared exposure of the deep layers of the skin. It is performed using a device that emits radio wave energy.
The flow of energy heats the deep layers of the skin to the compression temperature. As a result, the stretched collagen fibers tighten, providing a tightening effect.
The method is suitable for rejuvenating the skin of the face, neck, décolleté, as well as for other parts of the body. It is also used in the fight against cellulite.
An injection procedure, the essence of which is the introduction of special "cocktails" under the skin. Formulations include hyaluronic acid, vitamins, amino acids.
With the introduction of mesococktails, the following changes occur:
- age spots disappear.
- improves the skin.
- dryness is eliminated, wrinkles are smoothed.
- the relief is leveled.
The drugs are administered with very fine needles. Many microtraumas are created, which stimulate the production of collagen and elastin and improve the microcirculation of the blood.
When planning rejuvenation without surgery, many women choose injection procedures. In cosmetology, various preparations are used for skin injection:
- hyaluronic acid in combination with peptides.
- botulinum toxin;
- calcium collagen hydroxyapatite.
Selected drugs are injected. Very fine injection needles are used.
The rejuvenation of the face and neck is carried out with the introduction of special oxygen-ozone cocktails. After the procedure, the face acquires a fresh look, wrinkles, acne scars disappear. The technique stimulates collagen production.
A home alternative to ozone therapy is to treat the face with hydrogen peroxide. However, external exposure is less effective than the injection technique.
Effective facial rejuvenation after 60 years without surgery is possible with the fractional laser exposure technique. In terms of efficiency, the procedure can be compared to the use of stem cells, but fractional laser renewal is safer and more affordable.
It is necessary to perform the procedure in a cosmetology clinic that has the appropriate certificates. Non-specialized use of the laser can cause burns and other adverse effects.
Laser fractional exposure is a unique method of facial rejuvenation without surgery, which has many advantages:
- lack of severe pain;
- remarkable result even after a procedure.
- without negative side effects.
- short recovery period.
An important advantage is an affordable price (8-10 thousand rubles) with strong performance. The procedure solves many aesthetic problems at the same time - smoothes wrinkles, tightens, eliminates post-acne scars.
The use of fractional laser exposure in the presence of the following cosmetic defects is recommended:
- wrinkles, including deep.
- sagging skin, loss of a clean oval of the face.
- scars, scars, cobwebs.
- enlarged pores, acne;
- dark spots.
But there are also contraindications. They must be taken into account, because not everyone in their fifties has iron health. Laser rejuvenation is prohibited in such cases:
- large inflammatory areas on the face.
- skin infections;
- psoriasis, eczema?
- malignant neoplasms of any localization.
- heart disease?
- epilepsy;
- immunodeficiency condition;
- neurological disorders;
- serious allergic diseases.
The patient should warn the cosmetologist of the presence of chronic diseases. The specialist on this basis decides which technique can be used.
The technique consists of hitting a laser beam into the deep layers of the skin. As the bundle splits into many small bundles, the result is only in certain microzones, the remaining tissues remain intact. In the affected areas, the cells "burn", which stimulates the regeneration process, the synthesis of collagen and elastin.
Women aged 50+ are advised to use a non-abstract method of exposure. The difference is that the deeper layers of the skin are involved in the process. This allows even the deepest wrinkles to be smoothed out.
During the first week after exposure, the skin will become inflamed. It can be noted:
- the first 2-3 hours - a slight burning sensation.
- the first 1-2 days - redness.
- on day 2-3 - peeling, which lasts 4-5 days.
During the month, the skin will be particularly sensitive to sunlight, so you should apply a protective cream before going out.
Once the peeling stops, ie after about a week, the result of the procedure will be felt. Wrinkles are less deep, the skin tightens, the face looks fresh. But to achieve an intense result, you need to do a course of sessions. Their number is determined individually.
Assistance in choosing the appropriate rejuvenation method will be provided by a professional cosmetologist.
After 50 years, it will not be possible to achieve a good result when using:
- light fruit peels;
- cosmetic masks;
- BBL facial rejuvenation.
These treatments are good for young women aged 30+. After fifty and even more sixty years, techniques are needed that give a strong lifting result and smooth wrinkles.
Criticisms of facial rejuvenation techniques are mixed: there are many positive aspects, but there are also those who did not like the procedure.
First review
With age, wrinkles and intense age spots appeared. Facial rejuvenation surgery is contraindicated for me, so I decided to use non-surgical techniques. The beautician recommended fractional laser renewal. I am satisfied with the process, I did without severe pain and bruising. Already on the 6th day, the face looked decent, although it was pinker than usual. I can say that there is a result - the eyelids tightened, the wrinkles became smaller, the small pigment spots disappeared, but the large ones only became pale. I will repeat the process later.
Second critique
I'm afraid to do plastic surgery, so I took care of my skin very carefully. But after 50, the face "collapsed", there were cheeks, a second chin, a network of wrinkles. I chose fractional laser rejuvenation. What can I say, it was very painful for me, tears flowed from my eyes, I could hardly bear this execution. In the morning I got up and scared myself in the mirror - a face like that of a battered homeless man. Somehow he survived 3 days, then improved. But it could really "come out to people" only after 2 weeks. The wrinkles of my eyes disappeared, the oval became clearer, the nasolabial folds became less deep. The result is not bad, but the second time I will not dare to endure this pain even for the sake of beauty.
