What is SMAS lifting?
Among the many procedures for tightening the skin and improving its turgor, one can single out a type of lifting - SMAS-lifting. The technique involves the impact on the deep layers of the skin (up to 5 mm) with ultrasound to improve their trophism, reparative processes and processes of cell renewal.
Ultrasonic exposure is a shock effect, therefore it activates blood microcirculation, and this is a process responsible for tissue nutrition (trophism), which in turn improves metabolic processes in the skin.
What can improve SMAS lifting? This lifting method is able to tighten the skin in areas with outlined sagging skin, underlying wrinkles, skin folds.
SMAS lifting refers to hardware facial modeling that precedes or replaces minor surgical interventions for skin tightening.
The procedure takes place without anesthesia. The patient feels a slight heating of the skin. The duration of one procedure is two hours. Usually half of the face is treated in one procedure. A preliminary marking is applied to the face, which allows the device to trace exactly along those problem areas that are of particular concern to the patient.
There are a number of contraindications for SMAS lifting:
- the presence of pacemakers and other electronic implanted devices,
- skin infections,
- blood diseases,
- epilepsy,
- purulent and inflammatory rashes on the skin to be treated with ultrasound,
- pregnancy and lactation.
Indications for the use of SMAS-lifting:
- age after 40 years,
- age-related skin changes,
- broken face contour,
- problematic chin and neck,
- deep nasolabial folds,
- drooping eyelids.
