How should we take care of our skin?
Taking care of our skin starts with a mindset shift. With the upgrading of consumption and the improvement of living standards, physical skin care will become a part of daily life.
Let’s first look at the relationship between household physical skin care and medical beauty. It is like dental care, we brush our teeth every day. If we have tooth decay or periodontitis, we will go to the hospital for treatment.
This is the relationship between skin care and medical beauty. Daily physical care is required, and obvious skin problems need to be treated.
Daily behaviors like brushing your teeth are the correct way to care for your skin, and taking care of your skin safely and slowly is more in line with biological logic. Medical aesthetics is more targeted, but not necessarily necessary.
1. Key points of skin care routine
1.1 Skin care focuses in the dermis
The aging of the epidermis is due to the loss of vitality of the keratinocytes in the basal layer of the epidermis. It loses its vitality because of problems in the energy and nutrient supply of the dermis, such as capillary blockage or dermal inflammation. From this point of view, starting from the dermis is the source of care.
1.2 The dermis can only be cared for by physical instruments
Skin consists of epidermis and dermis. All kinds of chemical skin care products that the epidermis is exposed to, no matter how expensive the skin care products are, cannot directly affect the dermis, because various polymer essences cannot penetrate the epidermis to reach the dermis. This is easy to understand. If skin care products can penetrate the epidermis, then bacteria, viruses, heavy metals, and dust particles can also penetrate the epidermis, and the epidermis will not be able to act as a barrier to protect the body.
Only the sound, light, electricity and other means produced by physical instruments can penetrate the epidermis and get on the dermis.
1.3 Dermis care revolves around fibroblast activity
- Stimulates collagen synthesis by fibroblasts.
- Activate quiescent fibrocyte into fibroblasts.
2. Which should we physical skin care method to choose?
2.1 The sound, it mainly refers to ultrasonic
Ultrasonic medical beauty device is currently very difficult to popularize in the house field. The energy focus of ultrasound is difficult to control, and the energy can easily damage other tissues of the human body. For example, if ultrasound is used to treat kidney stones, the energy of ultrasound can break up stones, but it will also cause certain damage to kidney tissue. Therefore, non-doctors and others cannot use this device rashly.
There are also other beauty products of the ultrasonic type, such as ultrasonic facial cleansers, etc. These instruments remove the cutin of the epidermis through high-speed vibration, and have a certain cleaning ability, but it is difficult to control the damage of the epidermis.
Conclusion: "The Sound" program is not recommended as daily dermal care.
2.2 The light
The principle of the thermal effect of light on the skin is the theoretical basis of dermal care
The laser, which is a common method of medical aesthetics, includes fractional laser, picosecond laser, and femtosecond laser, but is limited by the operation of the device and postoperative care. Professionals are required to operate the equipment, and it is temporarily unavailable for home use. This type of product needs further technical iterations.
LED, this kind of product is more common in daily life, similar to the large row of lights and there are many other beauty devices with LED lights. Limited by the energy and scattering angle of light, the truly effective energy cannot reach the dermis, so basically there will be no nursing effect.
Conclusion: "The light" program is not recommended as daily dermal care.
2.3 The electricity
There are many ways to present the use of electricity as skin care, including electromagnetic waves, electric fields, currents, etc. There are three main principles:
Electric Muscle Stimulation, in addition to EMS, other micro-current schemes do not have theoretical support. EMS simulates bioelectrical frequency and directly stimulates muscle movement with electrical signals. The effect of lifting and tightening is immediate, but the consequences are also very serious, which will lead to fatigue and relaxation of individual muscles, and then require more EMS stimulation to form dependence.
Import and export: It is not safe to use the electric field of the instrument to increase the penetration of the epidermis. Because it cannot be guaranteed that only things that are beneficial to the skins are got into the skin, the process of getting will inevitably be accompanied by foreign matter. But please rest assured that the current "the electricity" means will basically not have the effect of increasing penetration.
RF current: RF current can penetrate the epidermis and reach the dermis. It heats the dermis and effectively activates fibroblasts to synthesize protein and hyaluronic acid. It is the most effective and safest high-tech means of skin care.
Conclusion: We can use a beauty instrument with RF current function as one of the daily skin care methods.
3. How to choose the right RF beauty instrument for myself?
Like general skin care products, the core problem to be solved by radio frequency instruments are still penetration, that is to penetrate the epidermis and apply real effective ingredients or energy to the dermis. For beauty instruments, it depends on its frequency. If we realize the repair mechanism of the dermis, the dermis needs to be heated, which depends on the power of the beauty instrument. Therefore, the key to choosing a suitable radio frequency beauty instrument lies in the two parameters of frequency and power.
3.1 The frequency, the high is the better, it is preferably more than 3Mhz. We can refer to the radio frequency of medical aesthetic equipment, which is between 4~7Mhz.
3.2 The power, in order to ensure the heating effect of the RF beauty instrument, the power of the instrument needs to be greater than 3W, preferably 5W. The premise of high power is that the frequency meets the standard. If the frequency does not meet the standard, its penetration will not be enough. The power at this time will be used to heat the epidermis and have no effect on the dermis.
So, is there any disadvantage of radio frequency beauty instrument?
Of course, some radio frequency beauty instruments with lower frequencies still use conductive current technology, which may burn the epidermis.
How should we solve this problem?
The answer is technological innovation from conduction current to displacement current.
We have made some hardware innovations to upgrade the core technology of the RF beauty instrument from conduction current to displacement current. In this way, when the radio frequency current penetrates the epidermis, the thermal effect of the skin caused by the impedance is avoided, and the risk of the epidermis being burned is eliminated from the root.
Our DLUS RF beauty device still has a thermal sensation when used. This thermal sensation is different from the scorching heat of other RF beauty devices. Instead, it directly heats the dermis and then transfers it to the epidermis. This thermal feeling is uniform and stable, is also very comfortable.
