In the age of Instagram, where you can do a close-up on every single face with a click of the screen, there is no one who does not dream of stretched, smooth, bag-free skin under the eyes, with embossed cheekbones and fleshy lips. And no, it does not necessarily mean artificial procedures that inject materials forward, but rather a light and fresh upgrade that will last for even a few hours, for an important event, and for a whole week if there are a few close events.
Anyone who enjoys facial treatment that upgrades the skin and can hold the feeling and visibility for up to a week can choose the "Cinderella" option from beauty salons and cosmetics. "These are treatments that give an immediate glow effect and are performed on the upper layers of the skin (epidermis and upper dermis) and not on deeper layers," explains Dr. Sivan Mercer, a specialist in dermatology, aesthetics and laser. Transient as they change. This is in contrast to the more massive treatments and injections, which penetrate deeper into the skin, last for several months, and are performed by doctors. "
Among the popular technologies in these treatments are light waves (IPL) and radio waves (RF) at different wavelengths, designed to treat the upper layers of the skin. "IPL heats the epidermal layer of skin and upper dermis tissue," explains Dorit Siboni, a general practitioner at AlphaMedics, an importer and aesthetic equipment marketer. "The waves of light break down the melanin found in these layers and give a more uniform and lighter shade to the skin. Only to the upper layers without deepening and causing peeling or redness, as is the case with the more massive treatments. "
Treat and indulge
Glowing treatments called Cinderella are performed throughout the country. For example, at the Evo Clinic in Ra'anana, a cosmetic treatment is started, which continues with the treatment of radio waves that heat up the collagen fibers and create a stretching effect. Next, the cheek muscle tone is treated with a device with DMA technology (dynamic muscle activation by electric current), which intensifies the stretching effect. At the end of the treatment, dedicated masks are placed on the skin to reduce pores, clarify and nourish, and are inserted into restorative and nourishing serums (price: NIS 550).
For cosmetologist Paula Blick, the facial treatment lasts for about three hours, combining worlds from east to west. The treatment begins with cosmetic acupuncture which leads to collagen self-production. Afterwards, rinsing and massaging the facial skin using a water-soaked, lubricating vitamin C to boost self-collagen production. Subsequently, creams and masks that are enriched with medicinal plants are applied to the skin, and face and neck massage is performed with the help of special facial cuppers that help to boost blood flow and firmness (not suitable for all skin types).
Next, the devices come, depending on the skin needs of each patient (price: NIS 800, but the queues are very far).
Additional glow treatment is done at institutes using the Israeli Geneo device, which offers three treatment options using OxyPods capsules. In the treatment, which lasts about 45 minutes, the epidermis is peeled off, followed by nutrients being inserted into the skin's depth in a fermentation process, which is formed from the combination of the capsule with a dedicated gel.
The treatment includes the use of a powerful radio wave handle that exists in the skin firming device, reducing wrinkles and encouraging collagen production. You can choose between skin lightening treatment, caring treatment or charcoal-based treatment for antiseptic and oily skin cleansing (price: NIS 500 to NIS 700).
Ronit Raphael Network offers collagen booster treatment, which lasts about an hour and combines vitamins and moisture with work on collagen fibers using laser technology. The treatment begins with the preparation of the skin with the help of oxygen and continues with the insertion of the vitamin C and B complex into the skin layers. Laser technology is used later, and the network explains that the laser beam speeds up collagen, regenerates the elastic fibers of the skin, and blurs superficial injuries. Although it is in the glowing treatment category (unless you do a series of treatments, according to the network) the price is very high: NIS 2,200.
