How it works

The facial muscles are a kind of frame. Their relaxation and contraction is directly reflected in the surface relief. Folds, wrinkles and sagging owe a lot of their origin to the condition of muscle tissue.

Special exercises help maintain fiber tone, which helps smooth and tighten all layers of the dermis.

Basic principles of Facebook building

As in any fitness, in facial gymnastics it is important to adhere to certain rules in order to get the best possible result.

Complexity

Exercises for facial rejuvenation after 50 years must necessarily involve the muscles of the entire face and neck. Of course, you should stick to a healthy diet and drink enough fluids.

Regularity

You need to exercise at least 4 times a week. It is optimal to perform the exercises every day, devoting 15–20 minutes to them. You won’t have to force yourself, since gymnastics is not associated with unpleasant sensations.

Subsequence

In one approach, you should work on all areas: forehead, cheeks, area around the eyes, cheekbones, lips, chin and neck. Those over 50 years of age need to perform facial gymnastics sequentially: one exercise after another, taking breaks between them lasting no more than 30 seconds.

What methods are used to correct the lower third of the face?

For general lifting – Altera circular lift

Ultherapy Ultherapy (ultrasonic SMAS lifting) is the best procedure today for non-surgical circular facelift using focused ultrasound. It not only affects the superficial layers of the skin, but also reaches the SMAS layer (superficial muscular aponeurotic system). Plastic surgeons performing surgical circumferential facelifts also work with this layer. Such lifting can remove gravitational ptosis - a natural process caused by weakening of the ligamentous apparatus with age. Altera is also the best procedure for reducing the volume of subcutaneous fat, tightening soft tissues, and forming clear facial contours. Tissue tightening occurs using focused ultrasound, which has the ability to penetrate to a depth of 4-4.5 mm. Ultrasound heats the subcutaneous layers. When the temperature rises there, the collagen fibers and connective tissue of the fatty layers thicken. The skin begins to tighten. And in order for the effect to be natural and long-lasting, an internal renewal process begins in the skin. Altera is a one-time procedure with no seasonal restrictions and no rehabilitation period. Immediately after the procedure, you can return to your normal lifestyle. After the procedure, the skin renewal process continues for 2-3 months, after which the patient’s appearance is radically transformed! The effect of the procedure lasts up to 5 years!

For lifting the double chin and neck

If you already have a double chin or the skin under the lower jaw and flabby neck, you can do without thread lifting. For example, SoftLift threads can be used, which are produced by an international holding company in factories in Italy, Japan, Korea, and Russia. The most advanced materials and technologies from around the world are used in the manufacturing process. Thus, SoftLift threads have a decay period of 400 days, while analogues have only 180 days. The technique allows you to move and tighten facial tissues very delicately. The threads also have a pronounced reinforcing effect, that is, they trigger the process of natural skin rejuvenation. The procedure lasts no more than an hour and does not require general anesthesia. There is no rehabilitation period. The threads are inserted into the tissue using special atraumatic innovative conductors (cannulas). The result is achieved in just one procedure, after which you can return to your daily activities.

To correct the area under the lower jaw, SOFT LIFT INVISIBLE threads are used - self-absorbing threads consisting of 80 percent polylactic acid and 20 percent polycaproloctone. These are reinforcing threads. Their main tasks are: prevention of aging, tissue revitalization, creating the basis for the formation of a supporting frame. Polylactic acid, in turn, has high regenerative properties and stimulates the active production of collagen and elastin. After this, the skin begins to tighten, thicken, and return to its youthful state.

These threads also have a lifting effect. They are distinguished by a strong grip, stronger than their analogues. The thread is located in the cannula, which ensures a non-traumatic procedure.

Cosmetologist

Italian caprolactone self-absorbing threads with notches for lifting soft tissues Dermafil Happy Lift (Dermafil Happy Lift) have a herringbone shape with very small, almost invisible notches (teeth). When inserted under the skin, the threads are attached with the help of teeth to the soft tissues. Thus, they form a supporting frame that tightens the contours and prevents the displacement of tissues and threads to other areas.

The Double Needle thread was created for chin correction. This bidirectional thread with converging notches allows you to quickly and effectively tighten the skin under the lower jaw and model a clear oval face. The lifting effect is visible immediately, and caprolactone, which the thread consists of, promotes the formation of new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid in the skin. Introduction Dermafil Happy Lift is considered one of the safest lifting methods. There is no surgical intervention, so there are no scars left on the skin. The threads are inserted to a depth of 3-5 millimeters, so damage to large vessels or nerve endings is avoided. Facial expressions are completely preserved. The recovery process proceeds very quickly, since no serious tissue injury occurs. The effect of thread lifting will last up to 5 years or more.

From the South Korean Bios line (Bio s line), mesothreads with multidirectional teeth on the cannula are suitable for correcting a double chin. They perfectly correct the oval of the face and tighten the double chin area well. Multidirectional notches ideally fix the threads in soft tissues, preventing them from moving and slipping.

French non-absorbable threads Spring Thread are good for removing a double chin, especially in older patients. They are made of polyester fiber, durable, but at the same time flexible, elastic, ideally adapt to the features of the face. Spring Trad fixes fabrics better, does not slip, and does not sag, because there are 24 teeth per centimeter, and not 5, as usual. The teeth have rounded ends and are covered with a silicone shell. They are located along the entire circumference, at an angle to the surface. Therefore, they do not injure soft tissues; they are perceived by the skin as natural structures. Reliably fixing the tissue, these threads do not disturb natural facial expressions. The result lasts for more than 5 years. And with regular visits to a cosmetologist and additional anti-aging procedures, you can increase the lifting effect for several more years.

For sculpting - bringing out clear lines of the chin and harmonizing the appearance Dense modern fillers with a sculpting effect help to bring out clear lines, add volume where needed, and remove where it is not needed. These include the German Radiesse, the Dutch Ellanse and the American Sculptra.

Radiesse based on calcium hydroxyapatite can not only smooth the skin, but also activate the process of producing new collagen in it. Accordingly, a powerful internal rejuvenation process occurs in the tissues. This gel is dense, so with its help you can completely harmonize your appearance - the drug is injected into certain areas, which is why the face begins to appear thinner. In this case, the smallest anatomical features of the face are taken into account. The first result is visible immediately after the procedure. Radiesse is evenly distributed in empty areas of the subcutaneous layer, returning the tissues an aesthetically attractive, but not excessive, volume.

2-3 months after injection, macrophages (utilizer cells in the skin) absorb the carrier gel. Calcium microspheres remain, which stimulate the production of new collagen. After administration of the drug, the face will look young and healthy for at least 2 years. Longer-lasting effects are also noted.

Ellans is a drug based on polycaprolactone. Polycaprolactone is one of the types of biodegradable polymer materials actively used for applying surgical sutures. Polycaprolactone-based filler is used for volumetric corrections, including chin correction, elimination of a “double chin,” and also for smoothing out scar defects.

The advantage of the drug is that with its help the effect obtained is maintained for a long time - up to 3 years or more. The main active ingredient of Sculptra is polylactic acid. This is a powerful biostimulator of collagen types 1 and 3. It is also called “young collagen”. After the introduction of polylactic acid, the skin is noticeably tightened, deep folds and wrinkles disappear. Polylactic acid is a safe component. Over time, it completely disintegrates and is eliminated from the body naturally.

The effect after injections lasts for 2 or more years. From time to time, the patient may need to administer 1-2 additional bottles to look perfect. Estefil (AestheFill) also belongs to polylactic acid preparations. As soon as this hydrogel enters the skin, it begins to actively fill the voids that form as a result of skin aging and the loss of its own structural proteins. Once in the target area, the drug particles begin an immediate process of tissue renewal and collagen formation, due to which the volume is completely replenished and even deep wrinkles are smoothed out. This happens precisely because of the special properties of Estefil molecules, which, due to their porous structure, provide the most effective collagenogenesis. Fibroblasts (skin cells) begin to work both outside and inside the microspheres.

In addition, polylactic acid actively stimulates the production of hyaluronic acid by mature skin cells. The uniqueness of the filler is that after the disintegration and complete removal of its main active substance from the body (on average, this process takes 3–4 months), what remains at the location of the gel is not a void, but new collagen and elastin. Accordingly, the result will last a long time - until the moment when, under the influence of age factors, the breakdown of your own collagen and elastin begins.

Sometimes the mental area is negatively assessed by the patient himself if it has features perceived as defects (too large or too small, unclear boundaries, too protruding chin, the presence of local fat deposits in the submental area). In this case, the main task of correction is to remove those features that are perceived sharply negatively by the patient. However, changing the shape of the chin can lead to a visual reduction in the size of the lips or a change in the visualization of their shape. Therefore, correction of the chin area is most often carried out together with lip correction - simultaneously or in stages. During the work, special attention is paid to correcting the labiomental fold if it is excessively pronounced or its location and unevenness lead to a distortion in the perception of the shape of the face. In some cases, it can emphasize asymmetry or create the illusion of a pronounced limitation of the chin, thereby shortening the face and creating the impression of incompleteness. In this situation, correction of the labiomental fold is also carried out with fillers (Radiesse, Ellans, Sculptra).

“Marionette” wrinkles, running from the corners of the mouth to the chin, most often occur after 30-35 years of age due to age-related structural changes in tissue and gravitational ptosis. “Unfriendly” wrinkles turn into creases over time, creating a feeling of sadness on the face. Their formation may also be a consequence of hyperactivity of the muscles that depress the corners of the mouth, which is easily eliminated by the injection of botulinum toxin. The corners of the mouth are raised, due to this shallow wrinkles can be smoothed out, and more pronounced folds are filled with filler. To reduce fat deposits in the chin area Fat deposits under the lower jaw and double chin, as mentioned above, appear either due to poor diet and lifestyle, or due to hereditary factors. To correct this deficiency, you first need to break down the accumulated fat.

For this purpose, a technology that uses ultrasound is suitable - Ultraliposonic. This is the latest development that combines non-surgical liposuction with RF lifting. Using ultrasound, subcutaneous fat is destroyed and then eliminated naturally through the lymphatic system. The RF attachment significantly speeds up this process, improving lymph flow and blood circulation and warming up the tissue well.

Liposuction using the Ultraliposonic device does not require incisions, and therefore does not leave any marks on the skin. To achieve the effect, 3-5 procedures will be required. In order to speed up the removal of fat cell breakdown products, A Clinic doctors recommend microcurrent therapy. For example, using a French device and medicinal cosmetics Biogenie. Biozhenya microcurrents are unique in that they provide cellular detox, restore cell membrane potential, stimulate fibroblast activity, accelerate the resolution of melanin to lighten the skin and increase immunity. This helps restore tone, microcirculation and tissue hydration. The currents act gently and painlessly, which allows you to work on sensitive areas (the neck is one of them). Thanks to cosmetics specially developed by the Biozheni laboratory and a special shape of electrodes, the procedure turns into a real pleasure. Cosmetics use a large percentage of natural ingredients and rare plant extracts (extract of blue lotus, orchid, edelweiss, Asian centela, wild rose, aloe vera, calendula), as well as elastin of marine origin, hyaluronic acid obtained by biofermentation, and collagen of plant origin.

The first stage includes traditional French aesthetic lymphatic drainage massage techniques with hands and machine manipulas, which improve lymph circulation and provide detoxification. Eliminating toxins allows skin cells to be better oxygenated and regenerate more easily. After toxins and excess fluid are removed, the skin immediately takes on a healthy appearance and even tone. The second stage is nourishing and strengthening the skin with the help of professional Biozheni cosmetics. A noticeable lifting effect immediately appears, sagging and wrinkles are reduced.

There are different Biogeni rejuvenation programs that last from 15 to 35 minutes. The recommended course is 4-5 sessions. Lipolytic cocktails will further help break down fat cells and remove waste products from the body. Lipolytic cocktails are one of the components of popular mesotherapy. Drainage components of cocktails, consisting of extracts of various plants - from green tea to artichokes - speed up the work of lymph flow: so that what has been destroyed comes out better. And L-carnitine is an amino acid, a natural substance related to B vitamins, which promotes the rapid conversion of fats into energy. The level of lipids (fat-like substances that make up cells) is also normalized.

Examples of exercises

Approximate gymnastics for the face after 50 years.

Clear oval

Spread your thumbs and index fingers as wide as possible and place them on your face from the side of your temples, as if putting it in a frame. Slowly move the skin back slightly to tighten the skin. Raise your chin slightly.

Youth corner

Fix the ring fingers near the corners of the mouth, the middle fingers at the beginning of the cheekbones, and the index fingers near the tragus of the auricles. Move the skin by moving your fingers slowly 2 cm upward, as if stretching the face. Hold the position for 1 minute. Such gymnastics for the face after 50 years helps to maintain high cheekbones.

Eyelids without wrinkles

Use your index, middle and thumb fingers to secure the skin in the area of the outer corners of the eyebrows, inner corners of the eyes and in front of the eye sockets. Close your eyelids tightly, feeling how the skin of the lower and upper eyelids stretches.

For the forehead area

Place your palm on your forehead. Raise and lower your eyebrows with effort, feeling the resistance of your hand.
Bring your index fingers to the beginning of eyebrow growth and fix it. Move your eyebrows, recreating the effect of anger.
Mentally point your ears upward, and at the same time strain and relax the upper ear muscles. To visualize and improve the exercise, you can use the image of holding glasses that are trying to roll off your nose.

Perform each of the listed exercises at least ten times. This will help smooth out wrinkles and strengthen the temporal and parietal muscles. And don’t forget to relax your face after the complex!

Speaking of exercises for the cheeks, the most effective will be: inflating the mouth with air and moving it in different directions/up and down; puffing out your cheeks and pushing air out through your lips as tightly as possible.

Contraindications for gymnastics

There are numerous contraindications for performing gymnastic exercises. These include:

inflammatory gum diseases;
wearing braces;
inflammation of the trigeminal nerve;
neurotic pathologies;
dermatitis, eczema, other skin diseases;
cervical osteochondrosis;
migraine;
hypertension;
tumors in the face;
cerebrovascular accident;
increased intracranial pressure;
pain of unknown origin.

It is necessary to stop doing gymnastics if you suddenly feel unwell, or if you experience headaches or tinnitus.

What affects the change in the lower third of the face

A person’s emotionality also leaves its mark. His natural expression wrinkles are transformed into static folds that lie in the lip area, pulling them down, giving his face a sad expression. In addition, the shape of the face in general, and the lower third in particular, is extremely influenced by the presence of bruxism (periodically occurring episodes of involuntary contraction of the chewing muscles, accompanied by clenching of the jaw). Prolonged tension of the masticatory muscles visually makes the lower third of the face heavier and leads to a change in the shape of the face. The face of such patients becomes square, in some cases leading to asymmetry. Visually makes the oval heavier and the tension of the platysma muscles becomes heavier. Soft tissues are pulled down, which leads to a change in the shape of the face and asymmetry. In some patients, the chin area becomes heavier due to an increase in the volume of adipose tissue. This can occur due to poor nutrition and lifestyle, and due to genetic predisposition - if the parents also have a pronounced fat trap in the submental area.

The most common patient complaints about changes in the lower third of the face:

the appearance of wrinkles;
increased expression of physiological folds;
drooping corners of the mouth and decreased lip volume;
changing the shape of the chin;
soft tissue ptosis;
deformation of the oval of the face.

The most common wishes of patients for correction:

provide lifting of soft tissues of the face;
reduce the depth of folds and wrinkles;
improve the oval of the face;
change (reduce or increase) the width of the face;
raise the corners of the mouth;
adjust the shape of the lips and chin;
harmonize appearance (for example, create a more feminine, sensual image).

Who is Galina Dubinina

Galina Dubinina is originally from St. Petersburg. In this city she received her first higher education as a chemical technologist. Later, her priorities changed dramatically, and as a result, she received a second diploma in aerobics. Most likely, the choice was influenced by long-term dancing lessons.

A new type of activity prompted her to develop gymnastics for the face. Facebook building from Galina Dubinina was tested on a group of women who felt the touch of old age.

The resulting effect served as an additional incentive to create a system designed to lift facial skin in a non-surgical way.

Further development of the idea led to the founding of the School of Youth, conducting video lessons online.

What is facelift: its advantages

Facelift is a tightening of the skin and muscles of the face. There are several methods: surgical method, hardware and without surgical intervention. The most acceptable and affordable way is without the use of plastic surgery.

In another sense, it is a method of combating the manifestations of skin aging using facial gymnastics, as well as all kinds of auxiliary cosmetic products: masks, creams, oils, serums. This method is suitable for absolutely all age categories, is easy to use at home and does not require additional costs.

Rejuvenation

By regularly using facial gymnastics, you can get the following positive results:

Tighten and correct the oval of the face.
Normalize the outflow of lymph in the facial part, and enhance the formation of collagen.
Smooth out small and large facial wrinkles and skin folds.

Additional Information

Face lifting with Galina Dubinina is not only an effective way to maintain youthful skin, but also an alternative to plastic surgery, due to the formation of muscles that create an invisible frame that supports the tissue, preventing it from sagging. A small part of the exercises was presented for review. To study the technique, you can purchase a video with trainings by Galina Dubinina, where you can additionally get a program for performing acupressure, learn the intricacies of muscle structure, for more thorough study.

The school is developing vigorously, training and training specialists who can further introduce women to the methods of performing exercises.
