Alexander Vdovin, plastic surgeon
You can often hear that some cosmetic procedures are absolutely impossible to do in the summer, as you can cause your skin more damage than good. We decided to seek advice from a specialist - plastic surgeon Alexander Vdovin and ask him what procedures can be done in the fall in order to preserve the beauty and health of facial skin.
Carrying out many cosmetic procedures is really limited by the seasonal factor. In particular, in summer and spring, many procedures are contraindicated due to the possibility of hyperpigmentation. In this regard, autumn is a more favorable and safe season, when even the most traumatic cosmetic anti-aging procedures can be performed with a minimal risk of complications.
1 . Acid peelings - medium or medium-deep. They perfectly relieve dull skin color, black spots, enlarged pores, help with weathered and rough skin, wrinkles, as well as inflammation and post-inflammatory residual effects in the form of scars and stagnant spots. Acid peels quite delicately free the skin from dead particles of the epidermis, activate regenerative and regenerative processes leading to further rejuvenation, deeply cleanse pores and impurities, relieve inflammation and post-inflammatory reactions, and smooth the surface of the skin.
2. Injection techniques. Since after the summer we often encounter dehydration of the skin, injection techniques such as biorevitalization and bioreparation come first among the autumn procedures. Thanks to hyaluronic acid, which is part of the preparations for these procedures, the skin is saturated with the necessary moisture, fine wrinkles are smoothed out, the face looks rested and well-groomed. In addition, in addition to hyaluronic acid, the preparations for bioreparation also contain peptides, amino acids, vitamins - these substances contribute to skin rejuvenation and can eliminate some problems, such as pigmentation.
3. Photorejuvenation. The procedure of photorejuvenation is carried out, as a rule, in the autumn. It is prescribed to even out complexion, narrow pores, eliminate pigment irregularities, reduce the manifestations of rosacea and hyperemia. Among other things, phototherapy is effective in the treatment of acne and its consequences (scars, scars). However, for the successful implementation of this procedure, the presence of tan marks on the face is undesirable, as this can cause burns.
4. Laser skin resurfacing. One of the most anticipated seasonal procedures that can be performed exclusively in the autumn-winter period is laser fractional photothermolysis or laser resurfacing of the face. Severe hyperpigmentation can also become a complication for this procedure, so it is undesirable to perform it during a period of excessive insolation. The procedure is indicated in cases of loss of tone, wrinkles, pronounced scars, post-acne, as well as postoperative scars, stretch marks, areas with hyper- and depigmentation. Carrying out this procedure creates all the prerequisites for the rapid growth of collagen, smoothing the epidermis, as the skin is treated and rejuvenated at a deep cellular level.
5. Facial contouring. Replenishment of volumes and correction of age-related changes is also best done in the fall. In the summer months, the face is exposed to solar insolation, which leads to a change in the structure of hyaluronic acid, which is the main active ingredient in fillers for contouring. Which in turn can affect the duration of the procedure itself, reducing it. Therefore, it is better to resort to the introduction of fillers after the summer and holidays.
As for plastic surgery, this field of medicine does not impose any seasonal restrictions on patients. abdominoplasty (surgical correction of body contours) and liposuction occur in the cold season , as they involve wearing compression underwear, which is not very comfortable to be in in the summer. In addition, in the summer, as a rule, people take holidays, and they prefer to do these interventions either before or after.
