After steaming the skin, opening the pores and softening the sebaceous plugs, the cosmetologist, having
wiped the lotion treatment area, begins to clean the pores. Armed with a special strainer or spoon,
within 5-7 minutes it removes fatty deposits, black spots and keratinized skin cells, excluding areas with
inflamed acne. Special lighting allows the beautician to see even the smallest pollution. Special tools
help the beautician to seize even deeply stuck in the pores of sebaceous plugs and push them out. If
with the help of tools the cosmetologist cannot remove the secret from the pores, then this process is
carried out by him manually, which is quite painful. To do this, the beautician wraps a clean napkin on
her fingers and begins to push the contaminants out with light squeezing movements.
It is very important to have time to finish cleaning before the pores are closed, about twenty minutes,
otherwise the skin will cool, and accordingly, the pores will close. Then cleaning will become much more
painful. Therefore, in the presence of multiple inflammations on the skin of the face, it is necessary to
clean in several stages until all pores are completely cleansed.
If the inflammatory lesions or acne on the skin is not a large number, then additional cleaning is not
required. In more serious cases, in addition to mechanical cleaning of the face, vacuum cleaning is
carried out using a vacuum, which is a small glass tube with a reduced pressure area created inside.
Under vacuum, sebaceous plugs are sucked out of the pores even in hard to reach places. In general,
vacuum cleaning almost always complements the mechanical, as well as darsonvalization (exposure to
the skin with high-frequency alternating current pulses), which also stimulates the natural metabolism,
restores the skin and improves blood circulation. After this procedure, all inflammations and small
wounds on the skin immediately dry out.
After cleaning, the skin needs calming, disinfecting and pore-tightening measures. To do this, wipe the
skin with a lotion or tonic with a disinfecting effect. In addition, an infrared lamp, darsonvalization, as
well as soothing and anti-inflammatory masks are used. For example, on the basis of medicinal clay,
which has the ability to absorb excess sebum, narrow pores, and relieve inflammation. In addition, it is
an excellent means of evening complexion. As an additional means of calming the skin and stimulating
blood circulation, a massage is performed (for example, cryomassage). After the procedure, you should
be in the salon for half an hour, so that the pores finally close.
The result of mechanical cleansing of the face is good breathing skin with barely visible pores, a more
even complexion, as well as an almost complete absence of comedones and pimples. The median
peeling gives the same effect. In the first days after this procedure, your skin will experience some
inconvenience in the form of increased sebum and itching. Immediately after the procedure, red spots
will be visible on the skin, and after a few days the skin will begin to peel off. Therefore, you should not
carry out this procedure on the eve of any important event or event.
After mechanical cleaning, it is strictly forbidden to wash with water for at least 12 hours. Within a week
after the procedure, it is advisable to use a lotion that does not contain alcohol. Since the skin needs
rest and recovery, so you should not be in the sun or visit tanning salons, as well as swim. In addition, if
crusts appeared on the skin at the site of injured pores, touching them is not recommended, since scars
may form in their place.
