The best esthetic treatments to restore firmness to the skin, leaving the belly smooth and firmer, include radiofrequency, Russian current and carboxytherapy because they contract the existing collagen fibers and promote the formation of new collagen cells.
Collagen is the main protein that gives structure and firmness to the skin and when it is diminished or slightly contracted the result is a flaccid skin that appears to be wrinkled and with great elasticity. Therefore, in order to combat the sagging of the skin of any part of the body, it is essential to act on the existing collagen fibers and to form new fibers.
Thus, the best cosmetic treatments against sagging in the belly include:
1. Radio frequency
In radiofrequency equipment is used that slides on the skin producing a pleasant heat, that never should pass the 40ºC. The waves emitted by the device act directly on the skin, contracting the existing collagen fibers and still promotes the formation of new collagen fibers. The results are progressive and after about 21 days the skin is still firmer than in the first few days after application. But for the skin to be totally smooth, without any sagging it may be necessary to have a session every 15 days, for a period of approximately 3 months.
If the person still has some abdominal fat the radiofrequency itself is able to assist in its elimination, however, if the goal is to firm the skin to eliminate localized fat, a protocol of treatment involving the radiofrequency with the lipocavitation, because this will achieve excellent results without having to resort to plastic surgery.
2. Russian Chain
In the Russian chain electrodes are used that are placed on the skin producing low intensity electric current. This current stimulates the muscles promoting their contraction more efficiently because the contraction ends up being stronger and lasts longer than the contraction performed in an abdominal exercise. This improves muscle tone, leaving the abdominal muscles firmer.
This is an excellent treatment for women after childbirth because in addition to combating sagging by improving the muscles under the skin, abdominal diastasis decreases, which happens when the rectus abdominis muscle becomes very flaccid and distant due to the growth of the belly in the abdomen. pregnancy. In this case, the treatment can be performed daily, preferably 5 days a week and can begin 15 days after normal delivery and 1 month after cesarean delivery. When associated with the use of creams to treat sagging, the results are even more satisfactory.
3. Criolift
It uses a cold system called the peltier cell, which can reduce the local temperature to minus 10 degrees, promoting vasoconstriction and increasing the tone of the skin and muscles, thus decreasing abdominal flaccidity.
4. Mesolifting
They are injections of rejuvenating substances or medicines indicated by the dermatologist that hydrate and regenerate the skin, diminishing the sagging of the belly. Commonly used substances include hyaluronic acid and alkaline phosphatase.
5. Microcurrents
It is a type of electrostimulation, which uses currents of low intensity to promote skin rejuvenation, increasing the firmness of the skin of the entire abdominal region. In addition, it improves in the nutrition and oxygenation of the fabric, generating a revitalizing effect on the skin. This stimulus also promotes the production of more and better collagen fibers, and may be associated with massage and the use of cosmetic creams.
6. Galvanic current
It can be used to promote a low intensity continuous electric current that passes from one electrode to the other, causing a small aggression in the skin so that it can regenerate. This healing leads to the formation of collagen tissue, filling in the existing gaps and the result is the increase in firmness of the skin.
7. Carboxitherapy
Carboxytherapy is the application of several injections of medicinal CO2 under the skin, which act to promote blood flow and improve oxygenation of the dermis and increase the production of fibroblasts and consequently, new collagen and elastin fibers in the treated skin. It is excellent for eliminating flaccid and stretchy skin, but causes some discomfort and therefore the treatments should not be maintained for more than 4 sessions approximately.
This treatment has its contraindications and important side effects and therefore it should only be performed by the physiotherapist specialist in functional dermato and before starting the treatment the person must be informed of the risks of the carboxitherapy has and sign the consent term.
