This book serves as a practical guide to essential manual techniques in aesthetic cosmetology, including facial cosmetic and anti-aging massage. These techniques help restore and sculpt the facial contours, working not only on the dermal layer of the skin but also on the epidermis. The massage incorporates manual and lymphatic drainage methods that accelerate toxin removal, improve tissue nourishment, and help eliminate excess fluid. It also relaxes facial muscles and has a positive effect on the skin, blood vessels, and muscles, supporting their health and vitality. A relatively new approach in aesthetic medicine, the post-isometric relaxation (PIR) technique has already gained recognition as a non-surgical method for lifting facial muscles. Regular practice enhances blood circulation and oxygen supply to the skin and facial muscles, leading to a quick increase in their tone, improved skin color, and better texture. The book also introduces face-building (facial muscle training), developed by German plastic surgeon Reinhold Bents. This specialized exercise system helps smooth wrinkles and tighten the skin without surgery. Additionally, it covers psychosomatic facial massage—a technique aimed at releasing tension masks, resulting in a more open face and a clearer gaze. Detailed, step-by-step instructions complemented by photographs, illustrations, and diagrams will enable you to master these methods thoroughly. An accompanying DVD features a professional demonstration of facial self-massage, helping your clients maintain long-lasting results and keep their skin youthful, firm, and toned. Designed for cosmetologists, aestheticians, dermatologists, massage therapists, psychotherapists, physiotherapists, makeup artists, students of cosmetology courses, and anyone interested in this field, this book offers valuable insights into gentle manual techniques in aesthetic cosmetology. The package includes a master class video—"Gentle Manual Techniques in Aesthetic Cosmetology"—by Margarita Starodubtseva, which further supports your practice. The psychosomatic facial massage, as shown on the DVD, is a powerful way to release tension and reveal a more open, refreshed appearance. This comprehensive guide will help your clients achieve lasting, youthful results and maintain healthy, resilient skin.
