Laser baromassage - a universal means to improve the toneskin, subcutaneous tissue and muscles, normalization of the sebaceous glands, smoothing and reducing the depth of wrinkles.

For the procedures use laser devices "Shatl" and "Shatl-Kombi", "AL-010", "Mustang" and others and a set of cosmetic barolaser nozzles. Before the procedure of laser therapy, skin cleaning is carried out, if necessary - deep peeling and micro-grinding. After the preparation of the skin, they go directly to the laser procedure, which includes "tracing" the bottom of deep wrinkles, laser baromassage, and "wrinkling" of wrinkles. An acupuncture nozzle is connected to the apparatus and in the radiation mode of 5 mW, a "profound" line of deep wrinkles is drawn along a contact, labile technique. At the end of the acupuncture nozzle, a power density of 250 mW / cm 2 is created. The speed of the daughter is 1 cm / s. Total exposure time - up to 10 min.

Laser souring can be performed as a mono-procedure, as well as in combination with the application of masks or creams to the skin. In this case, the effectiveness of the action is enhanced by the laser photophoresis of bioactive substances contained in the compositions applied to the skin.

Then proceed to the laser baromassage. To the radiator connect the necessary baranovakumnuyu nozzle. The output radiation power is 20 mW; the degree of vacuum necessary for the procedure is established, at which the patient does not experience unpleasant sensations, the skin does not stretch, but at the same time a clear convex crease should form under the vacuum nozzle. A power density of laser radiation of 5-10 mW / cm 2 is created under the nozzle .

Massage is carried out along the lines of traditional massage movements:

  • forehead
    • from the eyebrows to the scalp;
    • from the left temple to the right and from the right to the left;
  • cheeks
    • from the middle of the upper lip to the nose;
    • from the back of the nose to the temples;
  • chin - from the middle of the chin to the ears;
  • neck - from below upwards towards submandibular lymph nodes;
  • décolletage
    • from mammary glands to the midline of the breast;
    • from the midline of the chest up to the jugular cavity;
    • from the midline of the chest along the clavicles to the shoulders (bypassing the mammary glands);
    • on the shoulders down to the axillary lymph nodes.

Total time of procedures: face massage - 10 min; neck massage - 10 min;

Massage of the decollete zone - 15 min. Each movement must be performed at least 5 times. The speed of moving the nozzle along the skin is 1 cm / s. A sign of the effectiveness of the procedure is persistent hyperemia of the massaged skin areas.

After the massage, the faces proceed to the local laser to the baromassage - "smoothing out" wrinkles. To do this, use small nozzles with round or slotted nozzles. Nozzle with a round nozzle, creating a more intense effect (nozzle diameter - 3 mm, nozzle working area - 0.07 cm 2, power flux density at the output power of the laser 20 mW, taking into account the attenuation coefficient of the nozzle is 65 mW / cm 2 ), is used for local massage of deep, sharp wrinkles (forehead, nasolabial folds, chin, neck). The nozzle with a slot nozzle (working area of the nozzle is 0.15 cm 2, the power flux density at the output power of the laser is 20 mW, taking into account the attenuation coefficient of the nozzle is 30 mW / cm 2 ) has a softer effect, which makes it possible to effectively use it to smooth the wrinkle mesh thin and delicate skin in the eye and temples. The level of vacuum when working with a slotted nozzle is chosen individually depending on the skin condition.

Each wrinkle is "smoothed" 4-5 times at a speed of 1 cm / s. The total time of the procedure is 8-10 minutes.

At the end of the procedure, it is recommended to repeat the face massage using a large nozzle for 3-5 minutes.

At the end of the procedure, the skin is cleansed of the remnants of the cream or mask. To enhance the effect of laser massage and skin tightening, it is possible to use astringent and toning masks after the procedure. The procedures are carried out every other day or 2 days, the course consists of 10-15 procedures.
