What is ultrasonic cavitation?
Ultrasonic cavitation is a common procedure available in the offers of most beauty salons. It is recommended for all skin types, because its action does not cause any side effects, it does not cause irritation or dryness. Cavitation is a non-invasive and painless procedure.
Cavitation – step by step treatment
Facial cavitation is a non-invasive procedure that involves the use of high-frequency ultrasounds (inaudible by the human ear). During the treatment with ultrasounds, tiny gas bubbles form and burst on the skin surface, which in this way cleans the skin of residual sebum, callous epidermis and other impurities. Ultrasonic waves reach deep into the skin and stimulate it to regenerate. This results in a more intense production of collagen and elastin. This effect can be described as a type of internal micro-massage that improves the skin’s blood supply and lymph flow. Facial cavitation also has an oxygenating effect on the skin. After the treatment, the skin is well prepared for the next care sessions, because its surface will absorb the regenerative, moisturizing and nourishing ingredients contained in cosmetics much better.
The cavitation treatment takes 30 to 60 minutes. Before it, it is necessary to wash off the makeup to pre-clean the skin surface. During the treatment, the skin is moistened with water or a suitable preparation. Then each place is subjected to the action of ultrasonic waves emitted by a special device.
Cavitation is completely painless, so it does not require any anesthesia. The only effect you will feel is the gentle tickling of the skin caused by the bursting bubbles that are formed when the ultrasound waves are sent out. The operation of the apparatus is carried out on the entire surface of the skin of selected parts of the body (face cavitation is most often performed). First, focus on smooth surfaces, and then move on to the nooks and crannies (around the chin or nose).
After the cavitation treatment is finished, it is worth applying it to the face and carrying out a gentle massage.
Cavitation at home. Can I perform the procedure myself?
The treatment can be performed in a beauty salon or performed at home. Cavitation at home requires the purchase of an ultrasound device. It looks like an electronic thermometer, but ends with a special metal spatula. The treatment begins with placing a spatula on the face and moving the tip over the entire surface of the skin.
Cavitation – contraindications to use
Cavitation is completely safe, but there are some contraindications to this procedure. These are:
- pregnancy,
- circulatory failure,
- sensory disturbances,
- thyroid disease,
- osteoporosis,
- tumors,
- blood clotting disorders.
Cavitation should not be used by people wearing braces or pacemakers.
Cavitation – effects of use
Regular facial cavitation gives excellent results. It firms the skin very well, makes the skin shallow or after chickenpox, smoothes small wrinkles, closes the blood vessels and has a bactericidal effect. After a series of treatments, the skin is less prone to breakouts, it is brighter and better nourished. Cavitation treatment can be performed quite often – even 2-3 times a week. The effects are visible after just a few treatments, and the regular repetition of the ritual helps to keep the skin in good condition for a long time.
