The arrival of spring is always marked by a significant increase in the number of sunny days and the brightness of the light, and the brightness of the light makes many take a closer look at their reflection in the mirror and decide to go to the beautician. The riot of nature and the anticipation of the approaching holiday seasons are pushing patients to find an opportunity to get a cosmetic result as quickly as possible. What can a cosmetologist offer in this situation so that skin care is not only effective, but can also demonstrate a clear result after each procedure – dealing with estet-portal.com.
Paleness, dryness, flabbiness – dealing with the causes of the "winter legacy"
The main reasons why patients welcome spring with pale, earthy skin, bruises under the eyes, hypersensitivity, and the appearance of fine wrinkles – it is, as a rule, a lack of vitamins, temperature changes, a sedentary lifestyle in the winter. Let's take a closer look at how each of these causes affects the appearance of the skin, and what ways to correct the resulting condition will be the most effective.
Temperature changes. Frost and wind – not the best signs of winter, especially for the skin of the face, which becomes dry, irritated and flaky from the winter cold. While the beautician's patients rarely work physically outdoors, the beautician has to deal with the consequences of their outdoor activities on a winter holiday or active winter sports in the mountains.
Much more than frost, temperature changes in the cold season harm the skin – when a person goes out of the warmth of the house into the cold street air, then warms up in a car or in the subway, after half an hour or an hour he goes out into the cold again to reach a warm office space. Sometimes such temperature changes occur several times a day, and each time the skin is forced to adapt to them: the capillaries narrow and expand, the production of sebum is either activated or suppressed.
The skin gets tired over time from continuous adaptations to temperature differences, especially with age it is difficult for it to adapt to frequent changes, and it reacts to them with increased sensitivity, damaged capillaries, dryness and flaking.
Sedentary lifestyle. Winter weather is not conducive to high physical activity – I want to sleep longer, sit warmly with friends, but there is no great desire to run or even walk in the cold. The result of winter hypodynamia is insufficient supply of oxygen to the skin. On the one hand – hypooxygenation is manifested by bruising under the eyes and the typical pale gray and earthy skin tone that most office workers see in the mirror. On the other hand – lack of oxygen slows down the synthesis of collagen and elastin, metabolic processes in the skin, any inflammatory processes in the skin drag on slowly and often end with edema, pigmentation, and the appearance of infiltrates.
Hypovitaminosis. In winter, the menu rarely shines with a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables: this is a rather expensive pleasure, and, moreover, in the cold, you often want hot hearty food, and heat treatment greatly reduces the content of vitamins in products.
The lack of vitamins of the B group is especially noticeable in the body – inflammation is activated, wounds heal poorly, the sensitivity of the skin on the face increases.
Vitamins of group B are involved in the reactions of tissue respiration, affect the maintenance of the tone of the muscle frame – the shape of the cheekbones and the oval of the face. Vitamin B12 is responsible for iron metabolism, and if these substances are deficient, the face may become covered with fine wrinkles.
What to do with the skin so that spring care gives a quick result and a good effect
First of all, it is recommended to restore freshness and brightness to the face, which cannot but please the patient. This requires saturation of the skin with oxygen: hardware oxygenation techniques, microcurrent therapy, procedures with alpha-hydroxy acids, with nicotinic acid metabolites.
Skin oxygenation allows you to achieve:
- intensification of metabolic processes in the skin,
- restoration of microcirculation,
- Improve the nutrition and hydration of the deep layers of the skin.
Even 2-4 procedures within one to two weeks will relieve the patient of the feeling of dryness and tightness of the skin, give it a well-groomed, refreshed appearance.
Next, you should saturate the skin with vitamins, restore its moisture content. Deep moisturizing procedures are prescribed – with preparations of hyaluronic acid, with water-soluble vitamins, complexes with amino acids, peptides, membrane protectors are used. Such procedures make it possible to compensate for the structural deficiency of the skin that has accumulated over the winter.
After the skin is sufficiently moisturized, oxygen and vitamin support has been received, it is possible to move on to targeted correction of cosmetic defects – wrinkles, age spots, etc.
It is imperative to discuss home care with the patient: daily use of alpha-hydroxy acids, preparations with active forms of vitamin C, and starting from April – cosmetics with a high concentration of antioxidants to prepare for the active sun.
