Modern technologies, which are now widely used in absolutely all spheres of human life, are being actively introduced in the field of aesthetic medicine. Along with popular injectable methods, patient demand is also growing for less invasive, but no less effective hardware methods.
The use of modern devices significantly expands the range of possibilities for aesthetic medicine specialists. Which devices should be preferred – dermatologist, cosmetologist Anna Stetsenko shared with estet-portal.com.
Not so long ago, patients came to beauticians with a photo of Angelina Jolie and asked for the same lips. What trends are you seeing now?
A.S. Yes, fashion has really changed a lot since the surge in popularity of Angelina Jolie.
Fortunately, now naturalness has returned to fashion, but there are certain accents that each patient places in his own way.
If before we really only saw lips – today they have faded into the background, and even the pronounced zygomatic zone is no longer so popular. Now the trend is beautiful chins and pronounced angles of the lower jaw. It's attention-grabbing, it's beautiful and I confess that I love this trend and that's why I keep up with it.
What procedures do you most often use in your practice?
А.С. I am a fan of injection procedures, but recently I have expanded my arsenal to hardware methods. This is due to the fact that I had patients with such problems that I practically could not solve with the help of injections. I mean fine lines and excess skin.
Fillers are great in all their forms, but they only give volume, and don't fix what we need to completely remove. If earlier only plastic surgeons could do this, today we can compete with them by using the effective device Plexr®, which is represented in Ukraine by Aphrodite.
How does Plexr® help with these problems?
A.S. The Plexr® works with plasma energy. Under its influence, the liquid part of the cell evaporates and its very intensive regeneration occurs. As a result – the epidermal layer is completely restored, and as a result of the involvement of the basement membrane, collagenogenesis is stimulated.
With microscopic examination, we can clearly see how type 3 collagen is formed. This is a rather complicated process, which not every device can start.
How does Plexr® help you in your daily practice?
The Plexr® instrumental technique helps me in my work, first of all, by providing effective skin contraction. If earlier I sent patients who needed blepharoplasty or a facelift to a surgeon, now I can provide the skin lifting effect myself.
When it comes to blepharoplasty – using Plexr®I can get a tremendous result, where botulinum toxin will be only the final and fixing part, and not the main therapy.
That is, we can restore the quality of the skin that the patient had at a younger age, and he will look great even without surgery. In addition, Plexr® is also indicated for the removal of benign skin lesions such as papillomas, xanthelasmas, hemangiomas and cysts.
It is also optimal for treating acne and post-acne, and for removing old scars and stretch marks. Another important advantage of the Plexr® is that after exposure to the patient's skin, no scarring remains.
Plexr®
In my practice, I used the Plexr® with a patient who was only 28 years old. This girl signed up for me by phone, and I did not know her age. Later, she sent me a photo of herself and I saw that she was quite young and I was sure that she would not need the procedure.
But sometimes, as a result of genetic conditioning, wrinkles have a very specific pattern, and I still used Plexr® to help this patient. That is, my youngest patient was 28 years old, and then I can continue for a very long time, since these are definitely 60+ patients. Moreover, I have young ladies who at this age have never been subjected to surgical intervention, and they look great.
Would you recommend that practitioners become familiar with the Plexr®?
Just six months ago, I was a fan of exclusively injection techniques. Now, having become familiar with the Plexr® hardware method, I can offer my patients so much more. They can stay with me for a much wider range of issues. Now I can expand the range of my possibilities to the removal of fine wrinkles, non-surgical blepharoplasty, removal of age spots, lifting of facial tissues, and, of course, only then there are procedures to replenish lost volumes and fix the results.
I am very glad that today the range of our capabilities is expanding, and I recommend that all specialists develop and turn their attention to new technologies.
Plexr® – this is the latest device that has been used in Europe for more than 7 years, and thanks to Aphrodite, it has now appeared in Ukraine, and allows us to get really great results.
