Lpg facial and body massage - contraindications reviews photos before and after the procedure

LPG facial massage got its name in honor of the man who invented it, Louis-Paul Guitey, and is an abbreviation of his full name, written in French. He was in a car accident and received injuries that deprived him of the most basic thing: to move normally. To restore his health, he was forced to do gymnastics daily and receive massage sessions.

And the creative Louis-Paul, dissatisfied with the way the masseurs massaged him, decided to help humanity and developed a special device that can help restore normal motor function.

LPG facial massage. A classic made to perfection

The technology is based on the most classic of all. However, it is impossible to achieve the desired result with classic manual massage. The skin of the face and eyelids is delicate and thin, but wrinkles in any case require deep treatment. With manual massage, it is very difficult to find that golden mean, thanks to which the skin will not be injured, and due attention will be paid to wrinkles. At the same time, often very small areas that cannot be treated manually need massage.

The hardware LPG massage technique is a soft, painless procedure and, at the same time, extremely effective. The device is a small vacuum chamber, where the folds of the skin are delicately tightened and vibration-mechanical-vacuum action is performed in three mutually perpendicular planes.

Contraindications

All contraindications are divided into local and general, as with all other types of similar manipulation.

Local contraindications

• Any inflammatory processes in the skin: the process can spread throughout the body;
• Traumatic skin injuries. With mechanical stress, healing may be delayed;
• Inflammation in other places - phlegmon, osteomyelitis;
• Facial tumors. LPG massage will provoke increased metabolism and accelerated tumor division, which will lead to its growth;
• Neuritis of the branches of the trigeminal nerve in the acute stage;
• Vitiligo;
• Excessive hair growth at the site of the intended procedure: massage will improve skin nutrition and hair will grow even more intensively;
• Vascular network;
• Acne is a strict contraindication!

General contraindications

• High blood pressure
• Epilepsy
• Diseases occurring with rising temperature
• Pregnancy and lactation
• Bleeding disorder

This procedure can help with the complete absence of problems and simply make the skin younger. But usually such services are resorted to when something more significant needs to be decided and done.

Body massage treatment against excess fat

The LPG massage procedure is necessary for weight loss, burning subcutaneous fat deposits, getting rid of cellulite on the body, and tightening the skin.

It helps to correct and improve:

• décolleté area;
• neck;
• lower back;
• stomach;
• buttocks;
• limbs;
• hips;

The procedure shows an excellent aesthetic effect, as shown in many photos on the Internet. Reviews from real people also prove that the hardware effect of Lpg massage reduces body volume, tightens the abdominal muscles, removes “ears” and “breeches”, helps strengthen the muscle frame, reduce the thickness of the fat layer, and remove flabbiness.

Main stages of manipulation

Hardware massage is performed using special devices equipped with various attachments.

To understand the essence of the procedure, it is worth familiarizing yourself with its main stages or technology.

1. The first stage consists of preparing the skin for manipulation, that is, thoroughly cleansing it of any impurities and makeup. As a rule, cosmetic milk and tonic are used that are suitable for your skin type.
2. The second stage begins with exposure to the lymph nodes using a special attachment of the device. Work in a pulsating mode is selected, the areas of the main lymph nodes are stimulated, which in turn improve and restore the functioning of the natural systems responsible for renewing the entire body. In the process of such exposure, spasms are eliminated.
3. The third stage of manipulation is associated with the implementation of massage for depression. First, it is performed in pulsating mode - the areas of the cheeks and chin are worked out. Then the device is switched to reflex mode, which identifies and eliminates all areas of tension. Next, the device is switched to vacuum mode, due to which there is a direct effect on the epidermis. During this treatment, the skin is cleansed of the stratum corneum, the process of cell renewal is accelerated, and the double chin is eliminated.
4. At the fourth stage, they begin to tone the skin and correct wrinkles. A special attachment is selected that affects the reticular layer of the dermis. During the treatment, the production of collagen and elastin fibers is stimulated, metabolic processes in cells are activated, and the regeneration mechanism is activated. Each wrinkle and fold is treated at least 5 times, as a result of which small wrinkles are smoothed out and deep wrinkles become almost invisible. At this stage, modeling of the oval of the face, increasing the tone and elasticity of the skin also occurs.
5. The fifth stage is associated with lymphatic drainage, which is necessary to activate the lymphatic system and accelerate the outflow of lymph. The result of this effect will be toning the walls of capillaries and veins, which in turn improves the quality of tissue nutrition, accelerates blood microcirculation, eliminates puffiness and dark circles under the eyes.
6. The sixth stage involves applying a mask, which the cosmetologist chooses for each patient individually, depending on the problems and defects of his skin. The action of the mask at this moment will be incredibly effective, since the skin will be able to accept all the beneficial components included in its composition and deliver them to the deep layers.
7. The final seventh stage is necessary to protect the skin surface after the manipulation and consolidate the results obtained. It is performed by applying a uniform layer of cream to the skin treated during the massage process, suitable for its type and age. It is desirable that it contains sunscreen filters that prevent the negative effects of ultraviolet radiation.

The cosmetologist can, at his own discretion, adjust the stages of hardware massage depending on the degree of worsening age-related changes and the presence of other skin defects for each individual patient.

It is important that the cosmetologist voices his actions and talks about probabilistic sensations

Possible complications and negative reactions of the body

The lpg massage procedure does not always show positive results; it also has its side effects:

1. redness and swelling of tissues - go away on their own;
2. fever and slight chills - occur after the procedure, relieved with soothing tea;
3. soreness - usually goes away after a short period of time;
4. bruises and bruises are evidence that the massage complex was carried out incorrectly.

Such side effects require abandonment of the procedure or its correction - the treatment scheme, time and intensity.

General information

In 1986, the French company LPG systems invented and patented a technology for multidimensional effects on soft tissues called enderomology. Massage based on this technique allows you to influence the epidermis, dermis, hypodermis (fatty tissue under the skin) using a combination of vacuum, vibration massage and the mechanical action of rotating rollers.

This massage ensures the active production of fibroblasts, which, in turn, intensively produce elastin and collagen, which ensure skin tone. In addition, such an effect normalizes metabolic processes, lymph flow, blood circulation, helps remove accumulated fluid and reduce swelling.

Currently, the developments of the LPG systems company are used everywhere; the unique massage technique has received approval from the American Quality Control Department.

Comparison with other massage techniques

Some specialists prefer to do hardware massage rather than manual massage. The first is more effective and works on deep muscle tissue and the epidermis. Shows lasting results and heals the body. The same applies to the cavitation technique. It involves exposure of the body to ultrasound.

The two procedures can be combined in order to lose weight faster and get rid of figure flaws. Before starting the sessions, you need to weigh the pros and cons and choose the safest possible impact - with your hands, a device or an ultrasonic attachment.

Rehabilitation

LPG massage does not imply a rehabilitation period in its classical sense. Immediately after the session, you are allowed to return to your normal lifestyle; you can work, sunbathe, and engage in active sports. The only restriction is a ban on eating food within 2 - 4 hours after exposure.

At the same time, to enhance positive changes during the course, it is recommended to adhere to certain recommendations. So, every day you should drink about 3 liters of water and use special preparations - lipolytics, which stimulate the breakdown of fats and improve the condition of the skin.

LPG massage in the abdominal area

Indications

• decreased elasticity and tone of the skin;
• fat deposits in the facial area (double chin, blurred contour of the lower jaw, flabby cheeks);
• drooping of the facial skin, which causes the appearance of nasolabial folds, drooping corners of the mouth, and the formation of a nasolacrimal groove;
• loss of elasticity of the skin of the neck and décolleté, sagging skin;
• presence of wrinkles;
• tendency to swelling of the face and area around the eyes;
• dull, sallow complexion;
• recovery after plastic surgery, resorption of subcutaneous infiltrates, post-acne, hematomas.

Mechanisms of influence on the body

Cosmetology devices affect the body with microcurrents, radio frequency waves, ultrasound (ultrasound), laser, vacuum, and electroporation. All types of hardware massage strengthen and tighten the skin. The effectiveness of any method depends on the individual characteristics of the epidermis. Sometimes an unexpected reaction occurs from the most gentle manipulations.

You need to start with a specialist to understand how the procedure is tolerated. If the result is positive, you can do hardware facial massage at home, but little skill is required.

Some types of hardware massage will be described below.

Ultrasonic massage

The most popular procedure is lifting. Lymphatic drainage ultrasound massage is a painless and, to some extent, pleasant procedure. It polishes, creating a lifting effect. The skin is smoothed and its condition is delicately improved.

The most important advantages of ultrasound:

• No damage to the skin.
• Suitable for any skin type.
• High efficiency.
• Practically, there are no contraindications.

For facial massage with ultrasound, sound vibrations of high frequency but low power are used. Therefore, ultrasound massage is also practiced on very delicate skin areas (lips, eye area, eyebrows).

The procedure has a positive effect at the cellular level:

• Membrane permeability increases.
• Blood vessels dilate.
• Exchange processes become more intense.
• The pH level improves.
• The functioning of the sebaceous glands gradually returns to normal.
• Lymphatic drainage is activated.

Massage with impulsive currents removes fat deposits and toxins through the lymphatic channels. It deeply affects the skin, stimulating cell reproduction. Fat particles begin to move. Cleansed skin produces collagen and elastin faster. Facial muscles are strengthened, contours are tightened, swelling goes away. The complexion takes on a healthy appearance.

Lymphatic drainage massage is beneficial for almost everyone.

Next, a brief description of popular ultrasound devices for home use will be given.

Gezatone Kus 2K

French device for independent and gentle facial cleansing with micromassage. Ultrasonic frequency - 24 KHz. The device is lightweight and compact.

Using ultrasound with a high-quality cosmetic product, the skin will be cleansed, whitened, and fine wrinkles will be smoothed out. The face will become fresh, young, well-groomed.

Vibromassage

Does not require a visit to a cosmetologist. You can do it yourself. It is safe and not difficult to use. Properly carried out procedures will lead to good results.

Vibrating facial massage is needed for women over 30 years old. It activates protective intradermal processes, prolonging its youth. The device has several attachments. Works smoothly and evenly.

The following happens to the skin:

• Lymphatic drainage and metabolism are enhanced.
• Impurities and toxins come out through the pores of the skin.
• Blood circulation increases, evening out skin tone and making it elastic.
• Swelling is neutralized.
• Biologically active substances are better absorbed, activating the growth of healthy cells.
• The amount of hyaluronic acid increases.
• The work of nerve cells is stimulated, improving their conductivity.

The muscular aponeurotic frame of the face is well strengthened, creating a deep lifting effect.

With massaged vibration, the dermis and epidermis are noticeably improved.

Preliminary preparation

Lipomassage does not require special preliminary preparation, but before the first session it is a good idea to attend an introductory consultation. On it, the doctor examines the patient, determines possible contraindications and the condition of his skin, and carries out basic diagnostics in order to identify:

• weight;
• volumes;
• the most problematic points, as well as areas that are not recommended to be touched.

Based on the results of the data obtained, the doctor draws up a treatment regimen and frequency. Before the first session, the patient is usually photographed to be able to determine the results at the end of the course.

Advantages of hardware massage techniques

Hardware facial massage deeply works the layers of the skin

If we compare the manual process of performing massage and the hardware one, the second wins in several positions at once:

• high impact efficiency;
• deep tissue treatment;
• rapid activation and normalization of blood circulation;
• instant removal of excess fluid, due to which the skin almost immediately gets rid of swelling and puffiness;
• prolonged elimination of age-related signs of fading of the skin structure;
• elimination of fat deposits in the cheeks and chin;
• acceleration of metabolic and regeneration processes;
• absence of pain;
• return of elasticity, turgor density, uniformity of relief and noticeable tightening of facial contours;
• effective correction of defects in the area of ​​the nasolabial triangle, as well as around the eyes and eyebrow arches.

Myostimulation (electric currents)

Pulsed electrical currents rhythmically contract muscle tissue. A special device releases low-voltage electrical charges into facial tissue. Thus, the regeneration and metabolic processes of skin cells are accelerated, endogenous collagen is synthesized, and protection from the harmful effects of the environment occurs.

• Myostimulation is used when:
• It is necessary to model the facial contour.
• Skin laxity, atony of the upper eyelid.
• Bags, puffiness under the eyes.
• Wrinkles in the area of ​​nasolabial folds, eyes, eyebrows.
• Atrophic skin changes.
• Facial sagging.

Systematic myostimulation will slow down the decrease in facial muscle tone and slow down the formation of wrinkles. For myostimulation, cosmetologists use modern equipment.

The Gezatone Galvanic Beauty SPA m777 device with galvanic microcurrents of different polarities will allow cells to renew and regenerate more energetically.

The current function promotes intensive movement of ions, improving the permeability of cell membranes, and blood microcirculation is activated. The production of collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid and other biological components will increase. Old cells will be destroyed. The skin will be cleansed, moisturized, and nourished.

The device operates in normal and enhanced modes.

Patient reviews about the procedure

It’s always interesting to find out what sensations other people experienced during a hardware facial massage before deciding on a similar procedure yourself, so we invite you to familiarize yourself with some of them.

• Alina, 41 years old

I have thick skin, I had acne in my youth, so I still have depressions and scars on my face. Now these defects have also been supplemented by wrinkles. The reflection in the mirror led to depression, so I decided to do something urgently. I was encouraged to get a hardware massage from a friend who regularly visits a cosmetologist and knows about all the effective modern procedures. Skipping the process of cleansing the skin, I will begin to comment on my feelings that arose during the session. At first I felt a pleasant, relaxing warmth, then vibrating and pulsating effects appeared, but there was no pain. When the wrinkles were being treated, it seemed as if something was moving vigorously under the skin. It was unpleasant, but not painful. In general, I want to say that everything went fine. When they made the mask and applied the cream, I looked in the mirror and the reflection pleased me. The skin became fresh, elastic, noticeably tightened, and a blush appeared, which I almost never have. I completed a full course of massage and now, according to my friends, I look 30.

My colleagues gave me a gift - they paid for a course of hardware facial massage, so I had to go, although I did not count on any miraculous rejuvenation. The first 2 sessions were a pleasant surprise, and it didn’t hurt, so I decided to continue. When the course was over, I didn’t believe that this was possible. The skin became completely different - elastic, smooth, toned, with a blush on the cheeks. Now I advise everyone - go for a massage and you will be happy!

We wish you successful and effective procedures!

Hardware massage with a mesoscooter

Systematic use of mesotherapy can effectively treat wrinkles of varying depths, increase skin elasticity, and remove age spots. Electrical impulses with low power (electroporation) allow mesococktails to penetrate 80%.

The popular MezoLight Gezatone m9900 device operates in 5 auto modes:

• Non-injection mesotherapy.
• Electroporation – will make the membranes of cell channels more voluminous.
• Electrical muscle stimulation - restoration of facial contours.
• Biocurrents - lifting muscle fibers.
• Chromotherapy – resumption of metabolic processes.

How often should I use it?

Massage sessions with the device should be carried out no more often than 1-2 times a year for 10–15 sessions. The result will not be long in coming. According to cosmetologists, this is many times more effective than manual manipulation. After the procedure, the cosmetic effect is clearly visible, and after a few sessions the contours of the face will be tightened, the skin will delight you with its smoothness and freshness.

Hardware facial massage provides an excellent chance to look several years younger than your physiological age and prolong the beauty of your face. It’s advantageous that you can practice it yourself without visiting cosmetologists. The main thing is to be systematic and choose the device wisely. You should not save money here; it is advisable to give preference to devices from well-known manufacturers.

Carrying out the procedure

Lipomassage takes on average about 40 minutes, during the procedure the patient does not experience discomfort or unpleasant sensations. You must wear a special individual suit. Its presence reduces the patient’s psychological discomfort and increases the level of hygiene, since the working surface of the device does not come into contact with the skin.

LPG facial massage is performed directly on the skin. Before performing it, it is necessary to remove makeup, treat the problem area with cleansing milk and tonic, and only then carry out the treatment.

LPG facial massage

The intensity and type of movement of the sensor directly depend on the patient’s problem. There are three main types of impact (roller rotation modes):

• Reducing volumes (movement - rocking).
• Modeling new contours and reducing cellulite (movement - twisting and sliding).
• Increasing the elasticity of the skin (movement - grinding).

LPG massage involves a complex effect on the skin. The vacuum sucks the fold of skin into a special chamber, where it is subjected to massive treatment, warming up, soft grinding, and rocking. In fact, in such conditions a wave effect is created.

Side effects

Lipomassage is usually classified as a safe procedure, but certain side effects occur after it is performed. These include:

• Moderate swelling (occurs due to increased lymph flow into the intercellular space).
• Mild chills (reaction to mechanical irritation).
• Bruises (explained by the individual characteristics of the patient, increased sensitivity of the skin).

All of these negative reactions do not require treatment or observation and resolve on their own within 1 to 5 days.
