The wrapping procedure is primarily a therapeutic measure, since the active substances from the mask applied to the body penetrate deep into the dermal layers of the skin and stimulate the production of hyaluronic acid, collagen fibers, promote the breakdown of fat deposits and the removal of excess fluid from the body. As a result of wraps, skin elasticity and moisture increase, cellulite manifestations decrease, and the silhouette is tightened. A pleasant bonus of the wrapping procedure is the use of fragrant compositions for its implementation, which allow you to relax and enjoy the procedure.

Types of possible wraps and their main features
The wrapping procedure can be carried out in three forms - hot, cold and contrast.
The hot wrapping procedure consists in the fact that after applying a special mask to the body, a thermal effect is created using a film, infrared radiation or a thermal blanket. The body warms up to a temperature of approximately 38-40°C, while metabolic processes are activated, and the substances from the mask are actively absorbed into the skin. Such wraps are effective in areas with dense adipose tissue, but are contraindicated in thrombophlebitis and varicose veins.
Cold wraps involve the use of a body mask chilled to 20-22°C, the cooling effect is enhanced by the addition of menthol to the mask. Such wrapping procedures narrow capillaries, reduce puffiness, tone up, increase skin elasticity. Cold packs are especially effective for loose skin.
Contrast wrapping procedures are effective on those areas where there are local fat deposits, cellulite. Alternate application of hot and cold wraps leads to active splitting and removal of fat, increasing skin elasticity in the treated areas.
For the wrapping procedure, compositions are selected in which the source of active components can be algae, honey, vegetable oils, honey, therapeutic mud and clay. Before the wrapping procedure, peeling is necessary to deeply cleanse the skin and increase its ability to perceive the active components of the wrap. After the procedure, a cosmetic product is applied to the skin to fix the results.
