The causes of facial contour deformations and the choice of a hardware lifting method
Diagnosis: what should be paid attention to during examination and palpation of the face?
Hardware (non-surgical) face lifting (tightening of the skin and all tissues of the face) is a large group of procedures that are carried out with the help of physiotherapeutic devices and differ from each other in the methods of carrying out and factors of therapeutic effect. How to choose the right method of hardware lifting? What to pay attention to?
The soft tissues of the face are a complex, multi-layered formation. To get an effective result after the procedures, the traditional cosmetology diagnosis of skin type (dry, oily or normal) will not be enough. It is necessary to take into account the condition of the muscles, the severity of adipose tissue, and the functioning of blood vessels. The method of restoring skin elasticity is chosen depending on the cause of facial deformities.
There are several groups of factors that affect the shape of the oval and the tone of the facial skin. Deformations, or pathologies of the appearance of the face and neck, can be divided into two groups - tonic and volumetric.
Tonic causes include the weakness of the skin and muscle framework, which leads to a decrease in the tone of structures that have lost elasticity. Extraneous volumes are another group of factors that cause deformation of the face and neck. Because of them, puffiness and excessive fat folds appear.
