Top 5 Popular Facial Treatments That Don’t Work

We all want to look and feel our best when it comes to our faces. So, it’s no surprise that facial treatments are some of the most popular procedures. However, not all facial treatments deliver the results they promise. In this blog post, I’ll share 5 of the most popular facial treatments that don’t work.

Manual face cleaning

One of the most popular facial treatments is manual face cleaning, which includes scrubbing and exfoliating the skin. This treatment is often touted as a way to remove dirt, oil, and dead skin cells from the skin’s surface. However, manual face cleaning can do more harm than good. Scrubbing and exfoliating can remove the protective barrier of the skin, leaving it vulnerable to irritation and infection. These treatments can stimulate oil production, which can lead to breakouts. If you’re looking for a way to clean your face, stick with gentle cleansers that won’t strip away your skin’s natural oils.

Ultrasonic cleaning

Removing roughness and unevenness further provokes cell division and increases hyperkeratosis. The synchronous process of cell division and removal is responsible for the smoothness and even relief of the skin. Therefore, it is essential not to disturb it with traumatic procedures. An excellent alternative to ultrasonic cleaning is diamond microdermabrasion.

Pore shrinking mask

Most often, cosmetologists use clay masks. But they do not solve the problem of enlarged pores. The mask only affects the top layer of skin, making it appear smoother. Yes, after the procedure, the complexion evens out, and the skin looks fresh and rested, but the effect does not last long, and the pores quickly return to their original size. The size of the pores depends on the type of skin, and no mask can make them smaller.

If you’re looking for a way to reduce the appearance of large pores, try using a pore minimizer. This product contains ingredients that help to tighten the pores temporarily.

Peeling

Some believe the more profound the peeling penetrates, the better the rejuvenating effect. However, by removing epidermal cells during peeling, we only act on the upper layers, forcing the cells to divide actively. It has nothing to do with skin elasticity because it depends on the state of fibrous structures and collagen fibers.

As a result, the skin becomes thinner, drier, and more sensitive to external irritants. In addition, with deep peeling, the risk of developing burns and scars increases. Therefore, it is better to resort to superficial peeling or microdermabrasion to achieve a rejuvenating effect.

Hardware methods for the destruction of fat cells

When you remove water from tissues using procedures, the swelling goes down. However, fat will not stop the effectiveness of any device. Fat cells have alpha and beta receptors. The more we irritate the beta receptors of cells with hardware techniques, the more the alpha receptors that store fat are activated. Therefore, the result may be the opposite of what we expected after a hardware procedure.
