But even a delicate rejuvenation of the skin around the eyes can not be done.In addition to standard contraindications to work in this area, there are additional restrictions.You can not perform procedures with inflamed conjunctiva, serious visual impairments, hypersensitive skin.

Salon procedures

Of course, salon procedures are more effective than those that can be done at home.Therefore, experts advise starting a course of intensive rejuvenation from them.And then to independently perform supportive therapy.Moreover, the arsenal of effective methods and means among modern cosmetologists is impressive.

Hardware

The most effective skin rejuvenation in the area of the eyes from salon procedures are laser and combined methods.They need to be used with great caution, but the results are simply amazing.In second place in terms of efficiency, equipment that uses an impulse electric current, configured at a certain frequency.

Here are the most popular procedures:

Less effective, but also effective means for rejuvenation of the skin around the eyes are galvanization, darsonvalization, microcurrents.We will talk about them below, since today there is an opportunity to perform such procedures at home.

Injection

Although no one loves injections, injection methods of rejuvenation in cosmetology are very popular.Compared to others, they have obvious advantages: small traumatic, affordable, highly effective and allow you to work selectively only in problem areas.

Most often, to rejuvenate the skin around the eyes, they are used:

1. Botulotoxin. One of the most popular and effective methods of combating facial wrinkles around the eyes.The drug is neurotoxin and blocks the passage of the nerve impulse from the brain to the muscles that temporarily lose the ability to contract.The skin folds do not deepen, and if you take additional measures to smooth it, they are noticeably reduced.The validity of such drugs is from 6 to 12 months.But it is very important to choose a good specialist, since with an incorrectly calculated dosage or inaccurate administration, facial impaired facial and asymmetry are possible.
2. Biorevitalization.Dry, wrinkled and flabby with age, the skin becomes due to the fact that the production of unsulgised glycosaminoglycan is sharply reduced in the body.This substance creates an additional volume of soft tissues and holds water in them, and also takes part in metabolic processes.It is possible to compensate for its deficiency by subcutaneous introduction.The procedure is effective, but the result persists no more than 6-8 months.
3. Mesotherapy. In the same way, as a biorevitalization, with a syringe and a very thin needle or a mesoroller, multivitamin cocktails, preparations with collagen, elastin, peptides, coenzymes, etc. are administered under the skin.The effectiveness of the procedure largely depends on their correct selection and quality.The result after a course of 5-6 sessions can last up to 12 months.
4. Plasmolifting. In cosmetology, this technique began to be used relatively recently.It did not become super popular, as it requires the use of special equipment and has a number of side effects.The principle of action is in the subcutaneous introduction of the patient's blood plasma purified from red blood cells.It stimulates regeneration processes and restores the structure of damaged cells.
5. Contour plastic.Allows you to compensate for the lack of subcutaneous fat layer and soft tissues, which forms with age, as well as fill deep facial wrinkles around the eyes and on the nose.Most often, drugs based on the same unulphored glycosaminoglycan are the filler.Lipophiling is less popular, when the patient's own fat cells have subcutaneously administered.

If injection techniques are used regularly and correctly, then you can do without surgical or laser skin tightening until old age.Their additional advantage is a very moderate price, which makes them affordable for everyone.

Chemical peels

There is an opinion that peeling on the skin around the eyes cannot be done categorically.But this restriction was relevant twenty years ago, when there was no such variety of drugs and techniques for the procedure.Today everything has changed.Peelings in the periorbital zone are completely safe and very effective, but only specialists should do them.

The principle of chemical peeling in the destruction of the upper layer of the epidermis under the influence of acids applied to it.The skin around the eyes is very thin and delicate, so the concentration is never used above 25%.

Most often, such peels are used for this zone:

• Enzyme - the most soft and gentle, does not dry the skin and practically does not irritate it.
• Glycolic - effectively eliminates small wrinkles, perfectly levels the relief, removes dark circles.
• Almond - it works great to eliminate shallow pigmentation, lightening and restoration of the skin of the skin.
• Retinoic - with mild exposure, can penetrate into the middle layers of the skin, giving excellent results.

Procedures are usually performed with an interval of 2-4 weeks of 3-5 sessions.The rehabilitation period after it is absent, but the skin must be carefully protected from the negative effects of ultraviolet radiation.In the summer, it is better to hide it under dark glasses and be sure to apply sunscreen before each exit to the street.

Home methods

If the signs of skin aging around the eyes have become too obvious, it will not work to remove them exclusively with home methods.But for preventive purposes, their use is very effective and allows you to push away the need for more radical intervention for five or more years.This is what you can and should be done independently.

Portable devices

They perfectly improve the condition of the skin around the eyes and allow you to quickly get rid of wrinkles portable cosmetic devices specially designed for independent use at home.

The effect of them is not compared with the salon equipment, since their power is much smaller.But with regular use, they help to maintain the skin in excellent condition.

The most effective, according to consumers, are the following procedures:

1. Darsonvalization. It affects the skin with an electric current of high frequency.It is necessary to use it in the area around the eyes very carefully and at minimum power.Enhances subcutaneous blood circulation, accelerates the lymph flow, quickly removes bruises and bags under the eyes, has an anti -inflammatory and antibacterial effect.
2. Ionophoresis. It works on the principle of electrophoresis.The device emits positively or negatively charged ions that can penetrate into the deep layers of the skin.With a plus sign, they help transport beneficial substances from drugs applied to the skin.With a minus sign have a pronounced anti -inflammatory and soothing effect.
3. Microthes. Microcurrent therapy affects blood vessels and muscles, toning them.It accelerates blood flow, improving cell power.Stimulating damaged and weakened cells, they restore their structure.Thus, you can get the effect of complex rejuvenation, quickly get rid of edema, smooth out the “goose legs”.

Taking into account that devices will be used in a very delicate area, it is desirable to buy them only from trusted manufacturers.It is better to do this in medical stores or on official sites.

Be sure to ask for a quality certificate, and before the first use carefully study the instructions.

Gymnastics and massage

Even those who regularly do facial gymnastics often forget that eyelids also require care and attention.Exercises for them are usually not included in facialfing complexes.And this is completely in vain, since the weakened muscles will not hold the eyebrows and eyelids in the right position, and they will begin to sink.

Here are what exercises should be added to any charging for the face:

• Press the skin in the outer corners of the eyes with index fingers and slightly pull it back.Overcoming the resistance to carefully open and close your eyes.
• Holding the fingers in the same position slightly lift the skin up, while dropping your eyes down, then do the opposite: the skin down, the eyes - up.
• Raise the chin slightly, press the skin tightly on the forehead with your palms.Overcoming the resistance, try to raise your eyebrows up, while lowering your eyes down.

Repeat each of the exercises from 5 to 10 times.You can look for whole video complexes of gymnastics for the area around the eyes.But it is advisable to do such full charging no more than 2-3 times a week.

During facial massage, do not forget about the periorbital area.So that delicate skin does not stretch, all movements should be very delicate and directed along the superfluous arc from the inner corner to the outer, and on the lower edge of the eye socket - on the contrary.

Masks and creams

Most of the masks prepared according to folk recipes to the skin around the eyes are not recommended.Such restrictions are connected, first of all, with the fact that there can be various solid particles or irritating substances, which, if a mucous membrane enters the mucous membrane, provoke very unpleasant sensations.

But the time, while you pamper the skin of the face with masks, can be spent with the benefit of the eyelids.It is useful to put cotton wheels moistened in a strong tea brew, a decoction of chamomile, coltsfoot, calendula, calendulas on them.

From the same liquids you can make ice cubes and wipe the area around the eyes in the morning.This will help to smooth out small wrinkles, tone the skin, remove bruises and bags under the eyes.

After this procedure, it is very useful to apply high-quality lifting cream.It is desirable that the composition includes vitamins, peptides and unsulgised glycosaminoglican, which perfectly moisturizes the skin and levels its surface.
