Face cleaning with nitrogen

A face is a business card of a person, so all women try to do everything to make it look healthy and beautiful. Cleaning your face with nitrogen is a popular procedure. But do not do it at home. Remember that only a real expert can clean the skin so that the procedure does not affect your health.

Face cleaning with nitrogen or cryotherapy is a unique cosmetic procedure that has no analogues in terms of the level of effect achieved. It is carried out with the help of liquid nitrogen. Cryotherapy is completely painless and safe. Despite the fact that the time of action of nitrogen on the skin is small enough, you can see the result after the first procedure. This is due to the fact that the cold instantly acts on the skin, causing the vessels in its upper layers to narrow, and then sharply expand. In connection with this, blood circulation, metabolic processes improve, oxygen enters the cells better, which activates the removal of toxins from them.

Thanks to the rapid renewal of skin cells, the peeling effect appears: the upper layer of the epidermis peels off. But, in comparison with, for example, chemical peeling, this procedure is considered more gentle and soft. Depending on the duration of contact of nitrogen with the skin, cryotherapy has a different degree of action. If the skin has scars, scars, acne or other defects, the exposure can not last more than 30 seconds. Thanks to liquid nitrogen pathological cells will die, and healthy skin will regenerate faster. For a general increase in tone, exposure to nitrogen should be minimal.

Advantages and disadvantages of cleaning the face with nitrogen

Any cosmetic procedure has its pluses and minuses, and cleaning the face with nitrogen is no exception. The main advantages of this method can be called:

1. Liquid nitrogen helps to heal damaged skin cells. It has an excellent anti-inflammatory effect, so this procedure is often used after manual cleansing of the face. Due to its therapeutic features, liquid nitrogen is able to dissolve any problematic rash on the face.

Techniques for conducting

If cryotherapy is used to remove warts, scars, scars or acne, it is necessary to use a special applicator, with which all problem areas will be carefully treated. After nitrogen has acted on the skin, a fairly rapid influx and outflow of blood begins. Because of this, a dense crust appears on the problem site. After a few days, it will fall off, and the skin will turn pink and tender. Gradually the pink color will be gone.

If the patient simply wants to improve the skin condition, then the applicator, which is worn on the apparatus, is a small wooden stick. At its end, a cotton swab is carefully attached. Sometimes an applicator is used in the form of a tube with a special reservoir for liquid nitrogen. At the end of the applicator there is a tip to ensure contact of nitrogen with the face.

The procedure for cleaning the face with nitrogen to give the skin smoothness and tenderness does not take much time (usually up to 15 seconds). This is quite enough to get rid of acne, papillomas and other minor defects. The doctor first lowers the applicator into a container of liquid nitrogen, and then spends on the problem skin.

Like any other cosmetic procedure, cleansing the face with nitrogen has its contraindications. It can not be carried to people with:

2. Epilepsy.
3. Acute infectious diseases.
4. Elevated body temperature.
5. Couperose.
6. Migraine.
7. Individual intolerance to skin exposure to low temperature.

In addition, it should be noted that this procedure is not recommended to be carried out in the summer, since the skin, which was exposed to liquid nitrogen, becomes more sensitive to the sun's rays. During the treatment of the skin using this method it is necessary to use various sunscreens.

Pregnancy is not a direct contraindication to cleaning your face with nitrogen. But doctors can not always foresee how the female body will react to the procedure, so it is better to wait with it.
