What is ultrasonic cleaning? What are its features?

The skin cleansing method involves the use of high-frequency ultrasound, which can penetrate into the deep layers of the skin, reaching the dermis and causing a slight vibration. This helps blood and lymph flow freely through the tissues, which activates metabolism, has a beneficial effect on the production of collagen and elastin, improves regeneration and helps exfoliate dead cells. Also, mechanical vibrations of ultrasound increase the temperature in the area of ​​​​impact, dilate blood vessels and open pores.

During the procedure, active ingredients are used that restore the skin and also have therapeutic properties. Modern devices for ultrasonic tissue treatment can include additional functions such as vacuum cleaning, phonophoresis, etc.

  • The texture and color of the skin are smoothed out
  • The elasticity and turgor of the skin are increased
  • The tissues achieve the necessary degree of hydration

Stages of Ultrasonic Facial Cleansing

The first step is to remove makeup and other types of impurities from the skin using a cleansing lotion or micellar liquid. If necessary, a mask is applied to the skin of the face and neck, which softens the outer layer of tissue and promotes deep opening of the pores. Next, the skin is treated with a conductive gel, which is necessary for the waves to penetrate to the desired depth. In some cases, a food film must be applied over the gel to achieve maximum opening of the pores before the procedure. Typically, the skin is under the film for about 20 minutes, which is enough to soften clogged pores (comedones). In modern devices, the gel is applied using a special electrode. During this process, steam bubbles are formed, which, bursting upon contact with air, push excess sebum to the surface.

After the gel has been absorbed, the doctor begins the ultrasound facial cleansing, which involves the following steps:

  1. A special spatula is applied to the face with light pressure, forming an angle of 40-45 degrees
  2. The device is moved across the face without unnecessary effort, moving from the periphery to the center
  3. To maintain facial skin hydration, it is periodically sprayed with thermal water or products containing lactic or salicylic acid are used, which promotes better exfoliation and disinfection
  4. The procedure is completed by applying soothing agents, which are washed off after 20 minutes. They are followed by treating the skin with lotion and applying a moisturizer

The use of ultrasound in the periorbital area, around the lips and thyroid gland is unacceptable. Each action is performed slowly and carefully. The duration of the manipulations is from 10 to 20 minutes.

The K+31 clinic (Moscow) employs highly qualified specialists in the field of cosmetology, dermatology and trichology, offering solutions for care, including ultrasonic facial cleansing. Their arsenal includes professional cosmetics from well-known world manufacturers and laser equipment for the effective and rapid elimination of facial skin problems.

Ultrasonic facial cleansing is recommended when the following factors occur:

  1. Enlarged pores
  2. Comedones
  3. Small inflammatory elements
  4. Acne
  5. Excessive sebum secretion
  6. Excessive shine of the facial skin
  7. First signs of aging

Check the prices for ultrasonic facial cleansing on our official website and by phone.


Contraindications

Not every patient can be prescribed hardware facial cleansing. The technique is not recommended for skin inflammation, herpes, neurological disorders, tumors, cuts or abrasions, and also for weakened blood vessels. This procedure should also be avoided for rosacea and couperose. In these cases, a cosmetologist will offer a more suitable cleaning method.

Cosmetics and equipment used

At the K+31 center, we use the universal Skin Master Plus equipment, developed by Italian specialists. The device is suitable for carrying out care programs intended for the face and body. Its purpose is as follows:

  1. Facial peeling at three levels:
    • Superficial: removes the thin upper layer of cells
    • Medium: activates metabolism and renews tissues
    • Deep: removes toxins and harmful bacteria. Applicable to both the face and the back and the area between the neck and chest. After such procedures, the skin is renewed, acquires a smooth texture and tone
  2. Moisturizing and brightening the face (4 programs):
    • Relaxes tissues and tones muscles, refreshing the skin and returning it to its previous turgor
    • Helps eliminate excess pigmentation and make the complexion more even
  3. Lifting (3 programs):
    • Lotti microcurrents are used, which are as close as possible to the natural processes of the body, and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin by tissues, leading to natural regeneration and reduction of wrinkles.
  4. Fighting stretch marks and pronounced wrinkles using a unique technology that combines tissue treatment with needles and a laser beam.

One of the advantages of working with Skin Master Plus is an economical consumption of materials used, which significantly reduces the final cost of services.

Answers to popular questions

K+31 specialists examined the most pressing issues regarding ultrasonic facial cleansing.

Will the procedure help remove blackheads?

Yes, hardware ultrasonic facial skin cleaning effectively eliminates imperfections called comedones, which arise due to clogged pores with sebum and dead cells. Ultrasound penetrates deep into the pores, destroying impurities and pushing them out.

How often should the procedure be performed?

How often you need ultrasonic cleaning depends on your skin type, but it is generally recommended to come for the procedure no more than once a month.

Can pregnant women come for ultrasound cleaning?

Hardware ultrasonic facial cleansing is considered safe even during pregnancy, since the effect of ultrasound is superficial and does not affect the development of the fetus. However, a preliminary consultation with a doctor is recommended.

What is better: mechanical facial cleansing or ultrasound?

Mechanical facial skin cleaning has a more pronounced effect and can cause pain. The procedure is indicated for combating serious impurities and acne. Ultrasonic cleaning is a more gentle option. A cosmetologist comments: "Ultrasonic technology is ideal for those who prefer gentle skin care without pain and long recovery. This method is especially recommended for people with sensitive skin prone to redness."

Does ultrasonic cleaning affect wrinkles?

Cleansing improves blood circulation and cell renewal, which can help smooth out fine wrinkles and improve skin firmness. However, deeper wrinkles require more intensive treatments, such as laser treatments or injections.

How long does the effect of ultrasonic cleaning last?

Results are usually visible within 4-6 weeks. Regular treatments every 4-6 weeks are recommended to maintain the skin's condition.
