Health and beauty are the most valuable human wealth. Everyone knows that the condition of our skin directly depends on the state of health of our body as a whole, as well as on the right external care. Choosing a healthy lifestyle can save youth and energy much longer. However, proper nutrition, sports, taking vitamins and the necessary cosmetic care are no longer able to make the skin perfect for women after 40 years. At this age, there are a number of changes that are clearly visible in appearance.
Features of facial care through surgery
If a woman is not afraid to grow old, although we admit honestly, there are quite a few of them, then a healthy lifestyle and home skin care can be quite enough for her to have a decent appearance for her age. But if the goal is to visually "remove" from the face for several years, then it is difficult to do without salon, hardware procedures. For a long time, the most effective means of rejuvenation was the use of plastic surgery. This is a type of surgery designed to surgically eliminate various types of external defects. The effectiveness of this procedure has been proven for many decades, today there are a huge number of plastic surgery clinics, many of them have a decent level and many years of experience.
However, surgery has several disadvantages.
If we talk about skin operations, the main disadvantage is that they are almost impossible to do without residual scars.
Even if they are minimal and properly done - the scars remain, which already makes the procedure far from ideal. In addition, postoperative rehabilitation can not be called easy. On the contrary, it is a rather long, uncomfortable and even painful process. The price can also not be called affordable, especially if you go to a well-known clinic for the purpose of obtaining a professional result. The psychological factor in this case also has a considerable sense, since it is rare for anyone to be able to “lie under the knife” quite calmly and entrust their skin to a doctor.
Apparatus cosmetology as a worthy replacement for surgery
Is there no alternative means to achieve a visible anti-aging effect? Fortunately, they are! Apparatus cosmetology, especially some of its types, today are a worthy alternative to plastic surgery. Apparatus cosmetology is a series of cosmetic procedures that are produced with the help of specialized, professional devices. With their help, you can achieve impressive results. There is a wide variety of hardware cosmetic procedures. The most popular in recent years are laser and ultrasonic liposuction and peeling, which can be vacuum or ultrasonic. Also popular in women is the procedure - lymphatic drainage, which is a unique means of getting rid of many external skin problems. Its action can be performed using ultrasound, pressure drops, vacuum, impulse current.Massage, galvanotherapy, darsonvalization, cryotherapy, laser cosmetology - this is not a complete list of procedures that hardware cosmetology can offer.
A separate place is lifting. Thanks to this procedure, you can rejuvenate your skin most effectively and make it beautiful and toned.
There is a variety of types of lifting:
- photo lifting;
- Thermage;
- elos - skin rejuvenation and a number of other types.
Incredible popularity is now becoming SMAS-lifting Ulthera System.
Its main advantage is that this procedure is absolutely not inferior to plastic surgery in its effect, but it absolutely does not require surgical intervention.
This non-invasive method for the face is able to visually rejuvenate the appearance of the skin for 5 or even 10 years.
Benefits of Ulthera System SMAS Lifting
Let's try to figure out what are the advantages of a miraculous lifting and how it affects the skin.
Ulthera System (Altera Systems) - This is a technique of acoustic impulse that spreads in wavelike movements and is capable of compressing collagen, located in the epithelium at a deep level. Fibrillar protein or otherwise collagen forms the basis of connective tissue in the human body, provides skin elasticity and its strength.
Due to this lifting technique, the derma gets the necessary rejuvenating effect without the intervention of plastic surgeons.
SMAS lifting Ulthera System - The full name of this effective procedure. What does the abbreviation SMAS mean? This word does not have a monosyllabic literal translation. "Muscular aponeurotic superficial system" - this is how you can translate this word. SMAS is an inseparable layer that lies directly beneath the skin, serving as a combination of the dermis and muscles. It is located on the face in areas near the ears and cheeks and is responsible for facial expressions and muscle condition. Hateful aging begins to occur in this layer, its deterioration leads to visible changes, which is the deformation of the contour of the face and wrinkles.
The peculiarity of the Ulthera System SMAS-lifting is that during the procedure there is an effect on fibroblasts - special cells of the epidermis.
About the unique device Altera Systems should be said separately. It can produce high intensity focused ultrasound.
Without destroying the skin structure and without ray scattering, the wave from this apparatus can penetrate into the deepest layers of the subcutaneous tissue.
It is possible to adjust the depth of wave penetration from the surface to the deep layer.
For this reason, the device has 3 special nozzles for working at different depths. The first nozzle is needed to stimulate the skin to a depth of 3 mm. Using this nozzle, the pulses are distributed to a depth of 3 to 5 mm. The third nozzle is designed for the deepest impact on fabrics to a depth of about 8 mm. Thus, being able to penetrate the deep layers under the skin, this lifting is effective even with significant sagging of the skin. The great advantage is that the procedure has a lasting effect and is noticeable after the first session. According to doctors and cosmetologists, this is the only facelift that can replace surgery.

Carrying out the procedure
If there are no contraindications, you can safely prepare for the procedure. Choosing a proven clinic, you can go to a session. To begin, the master cleans the skin of cosmetics and excess fat well, then it is necessary to take an anesthetic, then gel is applied to the skin for ultrasound.
The important point is that before the lifting session itself a visual diagnosis of all skin layers is carried out in order to have an accurate idea of their condition.
This diagnostics is carried out by the Altera Systems apparatus set in the visualization mode. This mode allows you to select the exact level of exposure to tissue, it is also used to assess the results of the procedure.
When the necessary method of exposure is chosen, the doctor begins the process of lifting itself. For this, the device is put into a therapeutic treatment mode, after which the main procedure takes place consisting of the effects of wave frequencies on the dermal, epidermal and hypodermal layers of the skin. After the procedure, the remnants of the gel are removed from the face. The process of tightening the skin of the face takes from 20 minutes to 2 hours. The results can be seen quite quickly - already in the first week, while they will only improve within a few weeks.
