The skin should be rinsed first. Vacuum nozzle operates on the principle of a vacuum cleaner, it acts only on the areas directly processed by it.
• Disinfestation. The "jeweler" name conceals manipulation, carried out using chemical compounds and electric current. The device acts on the skin in such a way that it enhances the effect of synthetic substances on sebum and facilitates their penetration into the pores. Disincrustation is often used in combination with a vacuum. The extracted contents of the skin pores at the end of the procedure are simply wiped off the surface with a tissue moistened with a tonic.

It evaporates the cornified layer of epidermal cells, allowing you to eliminate not only pimples, but also scars, scars, wrinkles. Laser cleaning is used for deeply problematic skin, and not when there are minor rashes.

How to properly carry out the procedure in view of menstruation

Absolute contraindications for cleaning the face on critical days there. There are nuances that are worth considering:

• Try to ensure that the procedure, especially if it is a mechanical or manual cleansing, was performed not in the first 3 to 5 days of menstruation. At this time, the weakness inherent in critical days is stronger, and blood coagulability is worse, which will make the procedure more painful, and the restoration of the epidermis will brake.
• Refuse to manipulate, whatever they are, if blood pressure has increased. It can complicate the subsequent healing, since the procedure will soon cause the appearance of bruising on the face.
• Ensure that the sanitary napkin is thick and long enough. She should get rid of the leak throughout the entire manipulation, which can take an hour and a half and is carried out with the client in a reclining position.

Will the result from cleansing on critical days

Facial cleansing during menstruation in terms of efficacy may be helpful if carried out in the closing days. At this time, the amount of progesterone that stimulates the production of sebum, the clogging of pores and inflammation on the face, is reduced. The sebaceous glands are less active, so the external effect, which is cleaning, will help the skin to get rid of the surplus of their activity and stay healthy for longer.

By the end of critical days the body begins to be updated. This applies not only to the reproductive organs, but also to the hormonal system and other parts of the body. Skin, inevitably injured in certain types of manipulation, is regenerated more quickly.

If the cleansing coincides with the onset of menstruation, the effect may be the opposite:

• Progesterone values ​​are still high, so the appearance of new seals and inflammation is more likely. And cleaning will be a stimulating effect.
• The healing of facial wounds will go slower because of reduced blood clotting. Painful sensations with some types of cleansing will intensify.

If the girl is not feeling well, the procedure will increase discomfort, add new ones to the available signs of PMS.This is equally facilitated by manual and hardware manipulation.

Schedule of facial cleansing procedures

For skin problems, it is better to plan cleaning according to the cycle periods:

• 1 - 5 day - it is necessary to abstain from it, relax, lie down, do self-massage of the abdomen. Relax and skin will be more useful than testing it with chemical compounds and cosmetology equipment.
• 6 - 16 day - face cleaning after menstruation will help to make the skin ideal, as well as other procedures for care. Support her beauty diet, active movement.
• 17 - 21 day - progesterone begins to dominate, so the cosmetic procedure may be useless or even an additional stimulus for the onset of inflammation. It is more useful now to moisten it, including drinking a lot of water. This will help prevent inflammation in the next period.
• 22 - 28 day - cleaning the face before the monthly because of the inherent PMS edema would be painful, and reflection in the mirror will not please long because of the long healing effects of manipulation.

A real woman watches her face, regardless of the difficulties encountered. But for the result it is important to correctly distribute efforts and resources for this. Critical days are not the best time to clean. On the skin with them it is better to influence with the help of rest and nutrition.
