Today there is no nonsense, are dry goods, magic mirror to give everyone a plate of "hot medical beauty projects", including for what problems, price ranges, precautions, etc., and finally teach everyone a few tricks to choose a reliable medical beauty institution method, I hope that everyone will become beautiful safely.
Photon rejuvenation, skin seconds
Photons and picoseconds are both techniques that use "light". Different wavelength ranges, different target color groups have different ability to absorb light, then for these target color groups, we choose the appropriate wavelength, we can solve the corresponding problems. These target color bases include melanin, hemoglobin, and water, and the corresponding problems are pigmentation, red blood filaments, scars, wrinkles, and their main role is focused on melanin and hemoglobin due to the wavelength limitations of photons and picoseconds.
For problems: freckles, melasma, sunspots, freckles, coffee spots, flushing, telangiectasia (red blood capillary), seborrheic keratosis, acne scars, photoaging, etc.;
Price range: photons about a few hundred to two thousand / full part / time, picoseconds about two thousand to four thousand / full part / time;
Interval and course of treatment: once every 3 to 4 weeks, 3 to 6 times is a course of treatment;
Precautions: Avoid exposure to the sun for 1 month before and after treatment, and strictly protect against sun. Even cold compresses after treatment and overall cooling can reduce the incidence of postoperative blisters, and a small number of people may develop pigmentation or hypopigmentation.
Microneedles
Microneedles, as the name suggests, are needles with a diameter of microns, usually hundreds of microns, multiple microneedles arranged side by side, piercing micropores on the surface of the skin that are almost invisible to the naked eye, with the purpose of creating a "channel" on the skin barrier to facilitate the penetration of some substances that cannot be quickly absorbed after application. The microneedle forms that can be seen on the market are needle roller type, microcrystalline type, stamp type, and radio frequency microneedle. Microneedles are a way, but not the purpose, microneedles will often be combined with certain products, such as translucent acid, PRP, etc. (safety still needs a longer clinical application demonstration), to assist the transdermal transmission of these products.
For problems: refractory stains, acne scars, photoaging, etc.;
Price range: about a few hundred to three thousand / full department / time, due to equipment, with products up and down;
Interval and course of treatment: every 2 to 4 weeks once a course, 5 to 6 times for a course of treatment;
Precautions: After treatment, pay attention to avoid infection, such as herpes, folliculitis, under the guidance of a doctor.

Fruit acid peel
Fruit acid peel is the use of α hydroxy acid, that is, fruit acid, such as glycolic acid, malic acid, citric acid, etc., at a higher concentration on the face, to achieve the effect of superficial peeling of the skin, which belongs to "chemical peeling". "Chemical peel" also includes salicylic acid peel, polyhydroxyl acid peel, etc. The peel can loosen the connections between the epidermal keratinocytes, promote aging and excess keratin shedding, adjust the rate of keratinization of the skin, reduce acne accumulation, inhibit surface flora, fight inflammation, improve acne problems, and also inhibit melanin formation, improve pigmentation and dullness.
For problems: acne, peri-curular keratosis, melasma, enlarged pores, rosacea, dull skin, photoaging, etc.;
Price range: a few hundred yuan to a thousand yuan / time;
Interval and course of treatment: once every 3 to 4 weeks, 5 to 6 times is a course of treatment;
Precautions: Strictly prohibit exposure to the sun before and after brushing acid, and strictly protect against sun, and pay attention to avoid infection after surgery. Side effects such as irritation, redness, pigmentation, and depigmentation may occur.
Line carving
Line carving refers to the insertion of wire with barbs or serrated into the skin to play the role of lifting and fixing subcutaneous tissue, thereby improving skin sagging and sagging. The wire can be a protein thread, or a MATERIAL SUCH AS PPDO, PDO, PLA, PLLA, etc., the difference is in the manufacturing threshold and the time it is maintained within the skin.
For problems: eye bags, nasolabial folds (nasolabial folds), sacs at the corners of the mouth, sagging jaw margin, overall facial lifting, etc.;
Price range: a few thousand yuan to tens of thousands of yuan / time, according to the specific wire material used, the required quantity fluctuates up and down;
Interval and course of treatment: every 2 to 4 years, there is no distinction between courses;
Precautions: After surgery, if there is infection, rejection reaction, foreign body wrapping, missing threads and other problems, it is necessary to actively deal with it.
RF, ultrasonic knife
Rf rf is an electromagnetic wave that forms an electric current in the skin and subcutaneous area, forming a complete electrical circuit and electromagnetic field. During treatment, electromagnetic fields "rearrange" the cells of the skin while heating the skin and stimulating the formation of collagen in the skin. Therefore, RF is more used in wrinkles, skin sagging aging problems, common RF items, such as "Gerati" and "Thermage", there are also radio frequency emitted in the form of microneedles, such as "golden microneedles" and so on. Ultrasonic knives and ultrasonic knives have not yet been approved by the domestic CFDA, so the "ultrasonic knives" throughout the country are illegal. Ultrasonic waves will also be converted into thermal energy, so that the heating area temperature reaches more than 60 ° C, and the superficial fascia of the face shrinks immediately after being heated, which has the effect of immediate tightening. The high temperature causes the skin to coagulate and necrosis, which will also start the process of "post-trauma repair", stimulate the regeneration of collagen, and achieve the effect of lifting and tightening.
For problems: eye bags, nasolabial folds (nasolabial folds), sacs at the corners of the mouth, sagging jaw margin, overall facial lifting, etc.;
Price range: 10,000 to 30,000 yuan / time;
Interval and course of treatment: once every 1 to 2 years, there is no distinction between courses;
Precautions: After the operation, problems such as blisters, redness and swelling may occur, and they should be treated according to the doctor's instructions.

Whitening needles, water light needles, botulinum toxin
Whitening needles Whitening needles are mostly self-deployed by the institution, the safety is unknown, and the magic mirror does not recommend that everyone blindly inject. Water light needle Water light needle refers to the equipment of single needle, row needle or high pressure water gun needle. Usually the main ingredient of the injected product is hyaluronic acid, and the secondary components such as certain vitamins, amino acids and other components remain in the shallow dermis for 1 to 3 months. Hyaluronic acid can combine water molecules 500 times its own volume, which truly plays a "water-locking" effect, which can improve skin fullness and stimulate skin cell turnover.
For problems: dry skin, low fullness, low gloss, etc.;
Price range: a few hundred yuan to two thousand yuan / time;
Treatment interval and course: once every 1 to 3 months, 3 to 5 times for a course of treatment, or regularly;
Precautions: After surgery, pay attention to avoid infection, such as delayed papules, rejection reactions, foreign body wrapping and other problems, you need to actively seek medical treatment.
Botulinum toxin botulinum toxin can block the release of acetylcholine from the neuromuscular junction, thereby inhibiting expression muscle contraction, which has the effect of alleviating or even eliminating (over a period of time) dynamic wrinkles. It can be injected into the masseter muscles, calves, and shoulders to make the local muscles slowly become smaller, achieving the effect of slimming the face, legs, and shoulders. It can also be injected under the armpit to inhibit the secretion of sweat glands and treat underarm hyperhidrosis and axillary odor. At the same time, it can also be combined with water light needles to inject microdroplets on the face to improve rosacea and sebaceous gland oil problems.
For problems: frown lines, crow's feet, head wrinkles, slim face, thin legs, thin shoulders, hyperhidrosis, underarm odor, rosacea and facial oil problems;
Price range: 1,000 yuan to 6,000 yuan / time, according to the injection site, dosage up and down;
Treatment interval and course: once every 6 months, after 3 to 5 times is basically stable, and the treatment interval is adjusted according to the degree of improvement in the later stage (up to 2 to 5 years);
Precautions: Avoid strenuous exercise and high temperature environment within one week after injection, otherwise it will accelerate the metabolism of botulinum toxin, avoid infection at the injection site, and are not suitable for people with neuromuscular diseases such as ptosis and myasthenia gravis, and those who are allergic to botulinum toxin and other components of its preparations.
There may be temporary unnatural expressions and asymmetries on both sides after surgery, which will mostly be relieved after a few weeks.
How to ensure the safety of aesthetic treatment
So, how to maximize the safety of medical aesthetic treatment?

First of all, magic mirror recommends that when choosing a hospital and doctor, you must go to a qualified medical institution (with the "Medical Institution Practice License"). This means that its medical quality, health standards, and price system are regulated by the medical system. Don't go to a friend's house, a beauty salon, the second floor of a barbershop or anything like that...
In view of the concentration of medical resources in the mainland to high-level public hospitals, my recommendation is to first find tertiary first-class hospitals in various regions.
However, at present, many dermatologists and plastic surgeons in the domestic medical beauty industry, jumping out of the system to open their own clinics, are also trustworthy, and can choose the clinics opened by doctors who have previously had medical experience, or some medical groups with high market reputation.
Second, the doctor must have a practicing physician certificate and practice in the hospital, and the face-to-face consultation and formulation of the treatment plan must be completed by the doctor. As for the operation, some public hospitals have graduate students who can carry out some fruit acid and water light needle operations, and if they are carried out under the guidance and supervision of superior doctors, it is relatively safe.
Other medical institutions, some simple operation treatment, have specially trained medical skills, nurses to complete, is also relatively safe, but if you find that the other party is a bit "hand-born", you can designate a doctor to carry out.
Third, the use of products or laser equipment requires drug certification/filing, or medical device registration certificate/filing, but the vast majority of ordinary consumers cannot easily complete the "verification" step.
Therefore, the first is that the choice of reliable medical institutions is still the top priority, and the annual inspection and flight inspection of the medical system (that is, spot checks) will complete this step for consumers.
Do the above 3 steps, the probability is not easy to step on the pit. As for whether the medical aesthetic effect is outstanding, it is still necessary to make more efforts to study the local medical institutions and doctors who are doing relatively well, and talk more about it.
Doctors who can seriously communicate with clients and doctors who can guide and inspire clients to express their inner thoughts will not be bad doctors.
The above is the project combing and suggestions that the magic mirror has done for everyone. I hope that everyone can become beautiful safely, remember to pay attention to it a little, and pull friends together to become beautiful.
I love the world.
