Cryomassage of the face allows you to eliminate some cosmetic imperfections in appearance with the help of cold. The essence of the procedure is clear already from its name, and consists in a complex of massage elements combined with the effects of ice or liquid nitrogen.

According to reviews, the cryomassage technique is quite complicated, so it is better to entrust its implementation to a certified cosmetologist. Even a minor mistake in the technique of performing cryomassage of the face can lead to an ice burn and, as a consequence, to the appearance of scars or scars.

There are no age-related contraindications for cryomassage of the face, but this procedure is more suitable when traces of fatigue appear on the face or the first signs of age-related skin changes (for example, expression lines, flabbiness and lethargy).

Cryomassage of the face with liquid nitrogen

Before the procedure for cryomassage of the face with liquid nitrogen, this substance is placed in a special thermos, where nitrogen is in the form of a liquid at a temperature of -196 ° C. Liquid nitrogen is applied to the face with a wooden spatula with a cotton swab, observing the basic rules of facial massage. So that the nitrogen from the solution does not have time to evaporate, the movements of the cosmetologist must be fast enough.

When in contact with the skin, nitrogen dries it out, narrows dilated pores and blood vessels, normalizes the work of sweat and sebaceous glands, improves blood circulation, and reduces inflammation. The duration of a cryomassage session, according to experienced specialists, should not be more than 5 - 10 minutes, this time is enough for the skin to become even and smooth in appearance.

Indications for cryomassage of the face with liquid nitrogen will be a visible decrease in skin elasticity, its lethargy and flabbiness, first mimic wrinkles, dark circles under the eyes, black dots on the face, warts and some benign formations on the face, hyperfunction of the sebaceous glands of the face, enlarged pores, edema on face after anti-aging cosmetic procedures, acne on the face (including pink).

Before performing cryomassage of the face on people with warts, it is important to make sure that they are superficial and benign.

Cryomassage of the face with liquid nitrogen cannot be performed if there is a pustular or herpetic rash on the face, if the body gives an allergic reaction to the effects of cold. Violations of the general condition of the body can also become a contraindication to this procedure, for example, epilepsy and convulsive conditions, frequent headaches, migraines and some other diseases of the nervous system.

Cryomassage at home

Cold, when exposed to the skin, first causes a sharp narrowing (spasm) of its vessels, and then expansion. This improves the blood supply to the skin, accelerates metabolism, and trains the walls of blood vessels.

The beneficial properties of cold can be used to heal the skin and at home. For this, frozen pieces of fruit are suitable, as well as ice cubes with herbal infusions or the addition of natural juices. Vitamins and trace elements from them directly go to skin cells.

Cryomassage at home can be performed either directly with ice cubes or with a cellophane ice bag. They are applied to the skin and moved along the massage lines of the face with light and gentle movements.

If the skin is excessively dry, it is useful to add frozen fruits and vegetables to the ice - kiwi, cucumber, grapes. As soon as they begin to defrost, they are carried over the skin of the neck and face with light rubbing movements.

If the problem is excessive oily skin of the face associated with hyperfunction of the sebaceous glands, then frozen citrus fruits will be useful for cryomassage of the face.

If it is necessary to get rid of age spots and freckles on the face, lemon juice is added to the ice for cryomassage of the face.

Mint ice helps fight wrinkles and scars.

In order not to provoke an ice burn, cryomassage using this method, according to reviews, should not last longer than 3 - 5 minutes. During this procedure, a person experiences a slight tingling sensation and chill.

The result is noticeable after the first procedure - the skin is smoothed, the complexion becomes even, wrinkles and warts disappear, excessive greasiness, pores narrow. For a lasting effect, it is recommended to undergo a course of cryomassage of the face of 10 - 15 procedures. There should be an interval of at least 2 days between each session.

Cryomassage of the face is well combined with other cosmetic procedures, for example, with mechanical or ultrasonic face cleansing, the introduction of Botox.
