The massage itself
Massage will help keep you young. Ideally, it should be done by an experienced beautician, but self-massage is not excluded.
An effective technique is plastic massage. Provides several types of effects - agitation, shock, vibration. The procedure starts with superficial effects, then proceeds to deep kneading.
Basic facial massage techniques:
- Ledhatimi. Light strokes are performed in the direction of the less stretched lines (massage lines);

- Deep simmer. It is performed with all five fingers and one palm, the pressure should be more intense;
- eavesdropping. It is done with the fingertips along all the massage lines;
- Tremor. It is performed with the lower part of the palm, the movement is directed from the middle of the sternum along the clavicle to the ear and further to the temple.

Salon treatments for facial rejuvenation without surgery
Salons offer different ways of rejuvenation after 55 without surgery. These are traditional methods (peeling, massage, masks, skin care procedures), injection procedures (filler insertion, mesotherapy, biorevitalization) and hardware methods to affect the skin.
Raising the threads

Fibrous erection is recommended for ptosis of facial tissues, drooping cheeks, double chin formation, changes in facial contour, appearance of deep wrinkles.
For the production of yarns, polymeric materials, silicone, various acids, platinum, gold are used. The diameter of the strands does not exceed the thickness of human hair. After insertion, the thread is not felt and is not visible to others.
Photogeneration
The essence of this procedure is the exposure of the skin to pulsating light. Radiation is a quantum flux supplied by explosions. Different wavelengths are used. The maximum effect of the procedure does not appear immediately, but after the completion of the course. Thanks to the photorejuvenation procedure, the collagen framework and structure of the skin are strengthened, the face is tightened and fine wrinkles are softened.

The rehabilitation process takes up to 4 weeks. But a pronounced result covers a long recovery after the procedure.
Thermage
Thermage is a hardware procedure based on exposure to radio frequency waves or RF radiation. It is performed using a device that emits radio wave energy.
The flow of energy destroys old skin structures. As a result, new collagen and elastin fibers are formed, providing a tightening effect.
The method is suitable for rejuvenating the skin of the face, neck, décolleté, as well as for other parts of the body. It is also used in the fight against cellulite.
Mesotherapy

During the first few days after exposure, the skin will be inflamed.
It can be noticed:
- In the first 2-3 hours - a slight burning sensation;
- In the first 1-2 days - redness;
- On day 2-3 - peeling, which lasts 4-5 days.
During the month the skin will be particularly sensitive to sunlight, so you should apply a sunscreen with SPF before going out.
Once the peeling stops, the effect of the procedure will become noticeable. Wrinkles are less deep, the skin is tight, the face looks fresh. But to achieve a pronounced result, you must undergo a course of procedures. Their number is determined individually.

Non-surgical rejuvenation reviews
Reviews for facial rejuvenation techniques are mixed: there are many positive thoughts, but there are also those who did not like the procedure.
- "With age, wrinkles and age spots appeared. Facial rejuvenation surgery is contraindicated for me, so I decided to use non-surgical methods. Aesthetics recommended fractional laser rejuvenation. I am satisfied with the procedure, I did it withoutsevere pain and bruising. Already on the 6th day, the face looked good, although it was pinker than usual. I can say that there is a result - the eyelids tightened, the wrinkles became smaller, the small spots of pigment"They disappeared, but the big ones just faded. I will repeat the process later. "
- "I'm afraid to have plastic surgery, so I took care of my skin very carefully. But after 50, my face" collapsed ", it had cheeks, a second chin, a network of wrinkles. I chose fractional laser rejuvenation. What can I say, it was very painful for me, tears flowed from my eyes, I could hardly stand this execution. In the morning I got up and scared myself in the mirror - a face like that of a homeless woman beaten. Somehow survived 3 days, thengot better. But it really could "come out to people" only after 2 weeks. My eye wrinkles disappeared, the oval became clearer, the nasolabial folds became less deep. The effect is not bad, but the second time I will not dare to endure this pain even for the sake of beauty.
