The doctor pointed out the risks of using home facial cleansing devices

Nana Nosareva, a cosmetologist and dermatologist at SM-Cosmetology, said that home facial cleansing devices can harm the skin, despite their lower power compared to professional devices.

In conversation with Lenta.Ru On Friday, November 6, the specialist noted that acne, rosacea and other diseases may be hidden behind the usual black dots. Vacuum cleaning can cause bruises and vascular damage, ultrasonic cleaning can cause dryness and irritation, and mechanical brushes can disrupt the protective barrier of the skin.

It is especially dangerous to remove inflamed pimples and deep formations on your own. This increases the risk of infection and scarring. Homemade dermarollers can also lead to pigmentation changes and the spread of herpes or warts. Radiofrequency microneedling, the doctor emphasized, should be performed only by a specialist, writes 360.ru .

If a person still uses a home appliance, Nosareva recommends choosing devices from trusted manufacturers, following the instructions, starting with minimal power and carefully processing the nozzles. The devices should not be used for inflammation, skin damage, herpes and exacerbation of dermatological diseases.

In addition, after sunburn, peels and cosmetic procedures, the skin must be allowed to recover. If you are pregnant, have a pacemaker or metal implants, the possibility of hardware cleaning should be agreed with your doctor. It is also not necessary to combine it with scrubs, acids and retinoids in one day, writes NSN.

Nosareva stressed that pain and severe burning do not indicate the effectiveness of the procedure. Home devices are not a substitute for professional care, and improper use may require long-term treatment.
