In physiotherapy, such effects are used in combination with natural processes in the body, such as myostimulation, UVB therapy, electrical stimulation, high and low frequency magnetotherapy, laser irradiation andultrasound. Many physiotherapy treatments are used in material cosmetology. They are combined with active nutrition and hydration of the skin and other cosmetic procedures.
With the help of devices, cosmetologists achieve various effects: relieving, correcting pigmentation, treating acne and irritation, cleaning and nourishing the skin, tightening the contours of the face. To eliminate some defects, complex treatment is used with several cosmetology devices with a different spectrum of effects.
Areas of application of devices in cosmetology
After 40 years, the skin partially loses its elasticity.
Even the most advanced creams and skincare products do not penetrate deep into the skin. Cosmetic products can penetrate deeper with the help of material therapy methods. Thus, the area of their application is significantly increased. The external parameters of the skin are improved, the withering processes are significantly slowed down.
IMPORTANT: is it possible to achieve a good effect at home using cosmetology devices? There are devices for independent use. They are effective, although they have low potency and need to be used long enough to get the expected result.
Mesoporation (non-invasive mesotherapy), ultrasonic lifting, electrostimulation are widely used for skin rejuvenation. To improve the oval and increase muscle tone, electromyostimulation is usually used. Other methods are used to get rid of a wide range of problems. These are, for example, age spots, scars and wrinkles, large pores, weak tone of the muscles of the face and neck.

Popular beauty treatments using hardware
Cleansing and therapeutic procedures using hardware technology have appeared relatively recently. They are constantly being improved, new devices appear.
We offer you a brief overview of the most popular trends in material cosmetology.
Microcurrent facial therapy
According to research by European experts, stimulation of the skin with a weak electric current increases the content of elastin by 40-50%, collagen by 10-12%. As a result of the action of the current on the inner layers of the epidermis, an accelerated division of cells occurs, an additional supply of nutrients to them due to improved blood flow. The amount of chemicals inside skin cells increases. An increased supply of oxygen occurs. After the procedure, creams and masks are better absorbed. To achieve significant results in improving the skin with the help of microcurrent therapy, it is advisable to go through a full cycle of several procedures. But even after the first procedure, a significant improvement in skin health indicators is noticeable.
Material massage
In aesthetic cosmetology, a variety of material massages are used to improve the performance of the skin, increase tone, get rid of defects in the form of folds and cellulite formations. It is also actively used for weight loss and body contouring. This massage, in addition to cosmetic functions, has important healing properties. 
Before self-massage, the skin is cleansed, the device should be moved along the massage lines, no more than 2-3 minutes in each place.
Avoid touching the device in places where there are moles, papillomas, or inflamed areas. The massage machine usually has different settings which can be set to the desired mode. It depends on which area of the body or face is affected and for what purpose. Now, types of massagers such as lymphatic drainage, vacuum, vibration, and water are popular.
INFO: The combination of massage and physiotherapy has given rise to methods of improving skin parameters using devices. Hardware cosmetology includes many types of procedures for the face and body, in the photographs you can see the skin before and after treatment, notice the differences, advantages and disadvantages, take into account contraindications.
Some indications for cosmetic massage:
- weak complexion, causing sagging cheeks
- cramps, muscle spasms;
- presence of wrinkles;
- pockets;
- stretching the skin;
- cellulite, overweight.
Contraindications for such a massage can be various skin diseases, allergies, metabolic disorders. To be sure about the benefits of material massage procedures, you need to consult a specialist doctor and, if necessary, undergo a general examination.
Darsonvalisation
This method was originally used to stimulate blood circulation and metabolic processes in physiotherapy. Its name comes from the surname of the French physicist and physiotherapist d'Arsonval. High voltage high frequency alternating current is applied to parts of the body through glass tubes. In cosmetology, this procedure has become popular due to its availability, lack of side effects and simplicity.
The device is small and quite effective not only in beauty salons, but also at home. With this device, you can quickly get rid of acne, acne, inflammation. It is also possible to keep the skin beautiful, to quickly treat fine wrinkles, large pores, removing excess fat or dryness. These devices support spider veins and skin regeneration well. Under the influence of high-frequency current, blood circulation is increased and metabolic processes in the skin are activated.
Facial myostimulation
The myostimulation procedure can be performed both in beauty salons and aesthetic medicine centers, and at home. The device acts on the muscles by a series of electrical impulses (by skin electrodes). Muscle contractions due to stimulation by the device may be correlated with contractions during maximum physical exertion. This contributes to a significant increase in skin tone and smoothness. Generally, the following steps are required to use the machine:
- clean the skin of cosmetics;
- setting the required duration and intensity;
- placing electrodes on the face or body, they must be symmetrical;
- activate the active mode of the device;
- move the electrodes to the next section;
- application of cosmetic products for care.
INFO: Muscle stimulants are attached to the desired part of the body and do not require manual manipulation, which allows you to do other things during procedures or just relax. Most muscle stimulants are powered by batteries. There are some contraindications to their use, so it is advisable to consult a specialist first before starting to use.
Microdermabrasion
This is a method of skin resurfacing using abrasives. It is based on the ability of abrasive particles to penetrate the skin and exfoliate the keratinized parts of the skin. The abrasive microparticles have good penetrating properties. Esfoliation (skin resurfacing) frees up space for further growth of skin tissue. Currently, the devices use two types of abrasive substances: diamond dust and aluminum dioxide. After processing, the remaining abrasive dust is removed with a vacuum.
Cryotherapy
This method relies on the body's response to cooling. After a sharp short-term decrease in temperature, various hormones, including endorphins and adrenaline, are released into the skin, and immunity and blood supply increase. Now, in beauty salons, several different types of material cryotherapy methods are practiced. Some of them are:
- cryo-spray material: liquid nitrogen (from -180 to -50 degrees) is sprayed through a special device;
- cryoelectrophoresis: frozen chemicals are injected under the skin using electrical pulses;
- cryochambers: cold air chambers and nitrogen (-130 degrees) for the whole body.
Galvanotherapy
These devices are based on the use of weak electrical pulses (40-50mA) low voltage. Its effect causes an increase in the content of histamine, serotonin and other active components in the subcutaneous layer. In cosmetic technology, iontophoresis and disinfection devices are used. The first type of device transmits current to the surface of the skin through specialized accessories. It is used to treat rosacea, acne, pigmentation, smoothing of facial wrinkles. The second type of devices is designed for cleaning. It combines the use of alkaline solutions with galvanization. The sagging skin contributes to its deep degreasing and the elimination of dead scales.
Material peeling efficiency
Material peeling, unlike manual peeling, allows you to achieve a youthful and refreshing effect in a shorter time. Different types of peels using devices cleanse and help nourish all layers of the epidermis. The cleansing is deep and involves the cellular level. Devices for other purposes, for example, ultrasonic and laser liposuction devices, operate on the principles of cleansing and tissue stimulation. These methods are used to remove excess weight, fatty deposits. Laser peeling not only removes the top layer of the epidermis, it improves blood circulation and muscle tone when exposed to light waves. Innovative laser resurfacing with fractional lasers, with very deep cleaning, hardly causes damage.
INFO: The category of aesthetic medicine procedural devices, unlike the invasive category, is less complicated, more painless and non-traumatic to use. It is perfect for those who advocate minimal interference with the body's natural processes.
There is a hardware peel for home use. In particular, ultrasonic peeling machines cleanse the skin, remove dead particles, thereby stimulating the processes of metabolism and the growth of new cells. With enlarged pores, they contribute to their narrowing. The result of the procedure is an increase in the smoothness of the skin, changing its color for warmer and cooler undertones. Also for household appliances, nozzles for mechanical and vacuum peeling types are common.
More complex peels are performed by specialists in salons and aesthetic medicine centers.
Rejuvenation without surgery has become available with the advent of types of cosmetology equipment. This area of aesthetic medicine constantly offers interesting beauty programs. New devices are created, old ones are improved taking into account modern technologies. Many devices use a complex of several types of effects at once: vacuum, ultrasonic, electric. For example, in a method such as lymphatic drainage. The procedure improves the movement of lymph, as a result of which the edema decreases, metabolic processes in the body are restored, and blood circulation increases.
In material cosmetology, high-tech types of devices are used, created specifically for facial procedures, the effectiveness of which is confirmed by numerous photos before and after application, the benefits of this method significantly exceed thedrawbacks and there are few contraindications. Traditional beauty care products (creams or masks) combined with the latest technology give excellent results and help you look harmonious and youthful.
