The lively Elettra Lamborghini in fact, he let his followers know, in a recent Instagram story, that he is working on the launch of her own beauty clinic.

Radiofrequency and facial peeling like Elettra Lamborghini: what to know

«Elettra Lamborghini has chosen pro skin quality protocols»he confirms Alessandro Mari, osteopath and massotherapist from Forma Clinic in Milan. «Regarding radiofrequency, it is a non-surgical aesthetic technology that uses the energy of electromagnetic waves to heat the internal layers of the skin. This heat stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, key components for maintaining the elasticity, tone and firmness of the skin. The procedure is mainly indicated for improving the tone and texture of the skin, reducing the visible signs of aging, starting from fine wrinkles and sagging skin. During treatment, a device equipped with an electrode is passed over the surface of the skin. The electrode emits radio waves that penetrate the deeper layers of the skin, generating heat. This heat causes a controlled “injury” in the tissuewhich stimulates the body's natural response in the production of new endogenous collagen. The effects of radiofrequency they are progressive and may become more noticeable in the months following treatment. Precisely because the results are not immediate, usually the procedure is proposed in packages (4/7 sessions on a weekly basis). The results can be implemented combining radiofrequency (before) and facial peeling (after) in the same session”. «On the peeling side, however, be careful, because the treatment frequency changes completely».

To each their own peeling

As the Dr. Guido Cornegliani, doctor and cosmetic surgeon, medical director of Forma Clinic in Milan«with the necessary differentiations case by case, facial peeling can be repeated every 5-6 weeks, leaving the skin tissue the opportunity to renew itself and avoiding unnecessary stress. Peeling is nothing more than an exfoliating dermatological treatment carried out with application and application of chemical active ingredients that stimulate cell turnover, above all mandelic, salicylic, lactic and glycolic acid. The procedure starts with thorough cleansing of the face, after which a peeling compound suited to the skin type and blemishes to be treated is applied, evenly distributing the product with a brush, sponge or cotton ball. Depending on the thickness of the skin, the problems to be solved and the sensitivity of the skin, the peeling will be superficialwith action only on the external layers of the skin and less irritating impact, or deeperwith greater penetration and a more intensive impact. Peeling associated with radiofrequency creates an excellent synergy of intent, improving the quality parameters of the skin. Be careful, however, because peeling is not for all skin types: for example those thin, delicate and with active skin conditions (for example psoriasis or eczema) it is better to abstain from the use of exfoliating acids, under penalty of strong sensitization reactions and the appearance of inflammatory conditions of the skin. It is essential to reiterate the importance of medical aesthetic protocols always and only in a personalized way, avoiding “standard” packages: each skin is different”, reiterates Dr. Cornegliani. «As regards the starting age of these treatments, the rule of evaluating each individual case always applies. But generally radiofrequency and peeling, unless the latter has an anti-acne and impurity purpose, they do not become useful before the age of 30, when the skin gradually begins to lose its ability to self-renew. Everything in his time.”

Facial peeling in summer? No

«In addition to the active skin conditions mentioned, peeling and radiofrequency are suitable Avoid as a precaution even during the months of pregnancy, when the future mother is advised to focus on zero invasive face and leg drainage”, recalls Dr. Cornegliani. «Then there is the seasonal issue to consider. During the summer months it is advisable to limit the use of medical peels and strong chemical exfoliants to a minimum, as they increase the skin's sensitivity to the sun, with the risk of damage such as skin rashes and blemishes. Peeling, however, it can be carried out during the summer as long as you do not expose yourself directly to the sun for at least 20 days after the treatmentto always protect your skin with SPF 50+ sunscreen and rely on active non-photosensitizing chemical exfoliants. Among these we find mandelic acidtolerated by almost all skin types; lactic acidrelatively delicate on the skin and characterized by hydrating properties; phytic acid, effective in treating hyperpigmentation and dark spots. In general, however, autumn and winter represent the best times of the year for facial peels. Green light, however, to radiofrequency in summer: it's just a matter of tolerating the sensation of heat during the treatment.”
