Treatment of skin that is tired: how to restore its reserve capacity

Before proceeding with the correction of skin defects, which the patient complains about in the cosmetologist's office, the doctor must deal with the reasons that caused the appearance of these defects. Often, the signs of aging are clearly manifested by skin fatigue, provoked by the depletion of its reserve capabilities. The cause of exhaustion is most often prolonged stress exposure, so skin treatment in many cases should begin with relaxation and recovery programs. Read on estet-portal.com how to restore the reserve capabilities of the skin, including the correction of age-related changes.

Why the skin gets tired and how to restore its reserve capacity

The lack of reserve capacity of the skin is most often explained by a prolonged state of stress. The manifestation of stressful consequences in the form of aesthetic skin defects can be as follows:

• skin does not retain moisture well – becomes dry, flabby, with slow regeneration processes;
• skin cells do not retain lipids well – the skin becomes thinner, its turgor decreases, pigmentation may be disturbed, hyperkeratosis may appear;
• microcirculation is disturbed – the skin becomes dull, pasty, swelling becomes more frequent, inflammatory elements appear, hypersensitivity to some cosmetic products may appear, or the skin generally stops responding to procedures.

Before proceeding with the treatment of the skin and the correction of defects that disturb the patient, one should begin with the treatment of the condition that led to the depletion of skin resources – that is, to reduce stress levels.

Therapy should be comprehensive: these include anti-stress programs with physiotherapy and aromatherapy, contrast stimulation, spa programs, thalassotherapy, hydromassage; these are salon procedures with moisturizing and nourishing the skin, oxygenation and drainage, and increased blood circulation; it is also an indispensable active home care to consolidate the results of skin treatment in a beauty parlor.

Aggressive procedures should not be included in the program to restore the reserve capabilities of the skin, and methods with a probable pain syndrome should not be used. If it is necessary to remove warts or pigmentation, you should refrain until the results of skin rehabilitation treatment stabilize.  The signs of the success of the prescribed therapy are the restoration of the patient's sleep, the improvement of skin turgor and its color, the elimination of sagging and inflammatory elements.  Then, within about three months, the skin restores its reserve capabilities and then needs only supportive care – according to the individual needs of the patient.

Treatment of skin with age-related changes: restoring its reserves

It is not yet within our power to stop skin aging, but it is quite possible to slow down the manifestation of age-related changes. Moreover, one of the components of the anti-aging program, which is developed individually for the patient, should be the restoration of the deficiency of reserve skin capabilities.

It's no secret that the natural rate of skin aging can be greatly accelerated if the patient lives in stress and is not able to organize a healthy lifestyle for himself, if his skin is subjected to inadequate cosmetic care.

The tactics of correcting wrinkles and pigmentation, sagging and ptosis, and other age-related changes should be developed strictly individually, and skin treatment should be preceded by therapy for the causes that have reduced the reserve capacity of the skin.

If the tactics of skin treatment is chosen correctly, then most of the aesthetic skin imperfections that the patient came to the clinic with are solved quite effectively, and the skin aging process can be significantly slowed down.
