A cosmetologist warned about the dangers of at-home beauty procedures

As reported by BAKU.WS with reference to "Gazeta.Ru," this was discussed by Russian cosmetologist and dermatologist Tatyana Yasnaya. According to the specialist, the main danger lies in using devices without a preliminary assessment of the skin's condition. For example, in cases of rosacea and couperose, home procedures can trigger flare-ups.

The expert explained that household gadgets cannot replace professional cosmetic procedures. Their effects are predominantly limited to the superficial layers of the skin and improvement of microcirculation. The temporary effect of facial freshness after massage is primarily associated with fluid drainage rather than the production of new collagen.

Unlike home devices, medical equipment allows a specialist to control the depth, intensity, and duration of treatment. Improper use of devices without considering contraindications can lead to burns and pigmentation.

The cosmetologist emphasized that the choice of procedure should depend on the specific problem: some technologies help combat age-related skin sagging, others address enlarged pores, post-acne scars, or vascular manifestations. A universal device for solving all these issues does not exist.

In the specialist's opinion, before purchasing expensive beauty gadgets, it is important to consult a doctor, since in some cases the skin requires not additional care but proper medical treatment.
