Décolletage is one of the "poorest" areas for the vast majority of women in terms of grooming and care. , it will age immediately, quickly and dramatically by the age of 40. It will lose its smoothness, elasticity and tone, looseness, wrinkles will appear - especially the longitudinal area between the mammary glands, and the area between the neck and the collarbone will become very topical. .
For women, it depends on the neckline that they most often "simply don't reach their hands. "If the neck still gets its share of the nourishing cream - and last but not least the "extra" on the face that needs to be "smeared" somewhere, very, very few fall under it. Body lotion - to be honest - is not used by all women. Yes, and in a beauty salon, most procedures are done on the face - the neck is affected, but unfortunately cleavage rarely enjoys its share. Even the feet, especially the heels, are much better nourished with nourishing creams.
Beauticians sitting on their chairs can see this sad picture perfectly - it opens before our eyes in all its splendor. And they often combine facials with décolletage skin care.
Neckline: the face ends here!
The skin in this area is much weaker than in the anterior part - there is no dense layer of pancreas, very little sebaceous gland - in light of this, daily home care is very important. And it’s really no different from face care - the same cleansing, toning, using serums, masks and face creams. Extend the facial area to the top of the chest - so you can continually care for and hydrate your décolleté. Even following such simple rules will have a beneficial effect on your appearance.
And if you combined the care of this area at home with the professional procedures done in your beautician’s office? In addition, it is very convenient and does not require unnecessary waste of time as it happens in parallel. Yes, on the part of the client, this slightly increases the bill for the procedure - each beautician decides on this issue in his own way, by mutual agreement with the client. Such options are especially convenient when the client starts a facial treatment - in which case the professional has at least 10 times to restore the tone, moisture and grooming of the décolleté. And the woman is interested in remembering that the face ends at the top of the chest, and at least that’s it. The neck and décolletage fall into this area by default.
Professional care: what manual methods are recommended
The most basic and relatively inexpensive thing that can be done in a professional procedure at no extra cost is to process the chest area in parallel with the same tools. Start with manual cleansing and gentle, periodic exfoliation. Acidic products are very good for care - masks, special acid gels and serums, as well as peels. For example, the same glycolic acid - such positions are always present in the lines of manufacturers of professional cosmetics.
After washing and drying the skin, it is a matter of a few seconds to apply such a preparation. Leave on for 15-20 minutes, depending on the instructions and strictly followed - especially when it comes to chemical peels. However, complete décolletage treatments with chemical acids are a separate task and should be performed separately from the face due to the nature of chemical peeling. But a wide variety of acidic serums and masks are a whole other matter, easier and easier to combine with facial examination. Manufacturers recommend that certain products be coated with foil to improve their performance and the result accordingly. And perform the usual procedure on the face.
After the specified time has elapsed, the acid preparation is washed away quickly - and there is still room for the imagination. Serums containing glycosaminoglycans, elastin and collagen ampoules, nourishing, moisturizing or lifting masks, seaweed masks with subsequent "warm-up" - all preparations from the arsenal of individual beauticians correspond to the décolletage zone. It is very convenient to do this in a cup of hot water - an impromptu water bath - and put on it a bowl with the required amount. As long as the makeup is removed and cleaned, the contents of the bowl will have time to warm up completely. It should be noted that this is very convenientfor customers in the autumn-winter period - a warm paste covered with foil on top helps a lot to relax.
Similarly, you can work by hand - another weak part of a woman’s body. Given that the skin of the hand is much harder and rougher, it is worth combining skin scrubs and special hand creams from the arsenal of paraffin therapy. Cold paraffin is an excellent choice for a beautician’s office. Scrub, nutrient paste, cold paraffin, gloves and subsequent warming - such a procedure will have a very noticeable effect on the condition of the hands.
While the beautician works with the wrinkles on the face, the mask strengthens and smoothes the décolleté skin all the way. Well, when the last postoperative mask is on the face, 10-15-20 minutes of work is enough time for the beautician to switch to the upper chest and significantly improve the procedure with hardware methods.
Neckline: hardware capabilities
The hardware methods significantly expand the possibilities of the beauty salon to care for and rejuvenate the décolleté. As for physiological and safe methods, the following procedures hold the palm firmly:
- vacuum massage
- Microcurrent therapy
- RF lifting
The most convenient option for a professional is a vacuum massage. Because it can be done on the same nourishing or lifting mask - as they usually contain a wide variety of oils.
Therefore, after applying the last mask on your face, you can easily switch to the cleavage area without wasting time and additional resources - just remove the film. The skin is prepared by preliminary procedures and is ready for further processing. For work, we advise you to buy vacuum ball nozzles. Their effect is softer than that of bottles, they need very little oil or cream - the nutrients in the applied products are plenty of enough for the job. 10-15 minutes of such active exposure in all procedures - and the improvement of turgor, tone and smoothing of wrinkles will be very difficult not to notice.
A significant additional bonus for the client is the examination of the front of the entire waist of the upper limbs and the trapezoidal muscles with nozzles during the procedure. In fact, it is a massage of the front of the stress-dependent zone. In addition to strengthening and rejuvenating the décolletage, one receives a wonderful relaxing and regenerating massage.
From a practical point of view, the microcurrent therapy and the RF lifting procedure on the neckline are very convenient. This takes more time - when selecting this option, the skin must be thoroughly cleansed to allow electricity to pass through. In terms of the purely technical performance of radio frequency lifting work, it is somewhat easier to perform - but it is a matter of choice, the individual preferences and technical capabilities of the given specialist. You can supplement the procedures with diamond microdermabrasion, ultrasonic peeling, electroporation - which allows for a specific device. Even 7-10 such procedures significantly strengthen, repair, smooth and rejuvenate the skin of the décolleté.
With the advent of spring, when warm sweaters are being replaced by more open blouses and then bare-shoulder blouses, T-shirts, sunwear and dresses, winter recovery procedures to rejuvenate décolleté skin will be very helpful. And the woman meets in the spring and enters the summer with her shoulders straightened, proudly raised.
