1. How long can I wash my face for the first time?
Within 6 hours after the injection of the water-jet needle, I should pay attention to keeping the treated area dry, avoiding getting wet, not wearing makeup and wearing skin care products to reduce the chance of postoperative infection. I can wash my face the next day after the injection of the water-jet needle, but I should pay attention to the gentle way when washing my face, and not rubbing the injection area hard.
2. What kind of water should I use to wash my face
You can gently wipe the skin of my face with normal saline after the water injection. When I can wash my face, I will wash my face with warm water, but I should pay attention to avoiding the pinholes as much as possible. Overheated or supercooled water will accelerate the loss of components in the water-jet needle, thus affecting the effect.
3. What should you pay attention to when washing your face?
(1) Screw out the towel
After washing your face with a water-jet needle, first pay attention to wringing out the towel for washing your face, and don't drop water into the pinhole, so as to avoid bacteria in water entering the skin through the pinhole and causing infection, thus affecting the effect of the water-jet needle.
(2) Avoid the pinhole
After injecting the water-jet needle, pay attention to keep the injection site dry, so be careful not to touch the pinhole when washing your face, and it is not advisable to clean the pinhole with facial cleanser. After cleansing, you should also pay attention to avoid the pinhole when caring for skin to prevent infection at the pinhole.
4. How to care for the skin
After the water-jet needle is applied, slight wounds will be left on the skin surface. Pay attention to intensive maintenance of the skin within 72 hours. Besides washing your face with warm water, you can also choose to use mild hydrating facial cleanser and skin care products with high moisturizing ingredients to care for the skin. The water-jet needle injected into the dermis has good water absorption and water locking ability, so it can also absorb a lot of water and nutrients, effectively playing a moisturizing role.
5. Factors affecting the effect
(1) Repairing power of skin after stimulation
When water-jet needle is injected, the needle will stimulate and damage the epidermis, destroy the skin's self-protection barrier, and also cause minor traumatic inflammation. This requires the skin to repair itself quickly and perfectly, otherwise it may have no cosmetic effect or even lose its capacity.
In addition, the water-light needle directly injects the beauty ingredients that are difficult to be absorbed by normal skin into the dermis, which goes against the normal physiology of the skin, and it is difficult to completely avoid skin irritation, especially when the ingredients are impure, complex, large and sensitive.
(2) Molecular size and structure of hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid (that is, hyaluronic acid) is a classic injection component of water-jet needle, and its molecular size and structure are closely related to its functional characteristics. Hyaluronic acid used for micro-plastic surgery is a cross-linked product of medium and large molecules, so that it can only have a certain volume after entering the skin, which is not easy to be rapidly decomposed and metabolized by the skin, but also can support the parts that need to be enriched or corrected, so the injection position is usually deep rather than shallow.
However, water-light injection is to inject hyaluronic acid into the dermis, which belongs to shallow injection. In order to avoid protruding on the skin surface after injection, it is not appropriate to use cross-linked hyaluronic acid with large molecular weight. Some institutions even inject non-cross-linked small molecular hyaluronic acid for safety. Such hyaluronic acid quickly decomposes and fails after entering the skin, and the consequences are quick to take effect and failure, and it often returns to its prototype within one month.
(3) Injected cosmetic ingredients
Different cosmetic ingredients of Shuiguang needle injection will have different cosmetic effects. In addition, the injection of ingredients is not the more the better. After all, as the ingredients increase, the risk of irritation will increase accordingly. Commonly used ingredients are as follows:
Hyaluronic acid: moisturizing and abundant, and the skin becomes delicate, smooth, moist and white due to sufficient water;
Botulinum toxin: fine pores, smooth skin and reduce oil secretion;
glutathione: whitening, anti-oxidation, synergistic with vitamin C, is one of the main components of the classic whitening needle.
L-vitamin C: whitening, anti-oxidation, promoting collagen synthesis, is one of the main components of classic whitening needle.
(4) Metabolic speed of cosmetic ingredients
After these cosmetic ingredients enter the skin, they will gradually decompose and fail. The faster the decomposition and metabolism, the shorter the effect maintenance time. This process varies greatly among individuals, which is the reason for the great difference in the maintenance time of water-light needles.
In addition, due to shallow injection, only small and medium molecular components that are easy to disperse and decompose should be injected, which determines that the maintenance time of water-jet needles is mostly less than 3 months.
Obviously, the water-light needle is really not zero-risk, but it is a good first-aid skin beauty method, especially suitable for those who have attended important occasions recently (such as getting married) and need to get flawless skin quickly.
