Contrast massage to improve skin tone
A massage with water at a contrasting temperature will help quickly improve the contour, tone the muscle structure of the face, refresh and make it more expressive.

Milk ice
Cosmetic procedures using ice help to very effectively tone, refresh, and smooth out creases in the epidermis. Due to contact with ice, the skin temperature sharply decreases, as a result of which the blood vessels narrow. With their subsequent expansion, blood flows into them more intensely.
Milk ice is an easy-to-prepare and instantly effective rejuvenating product for facial skin.
Ice cubes with milk have a double beneficial effect on the skin. After all, milk, containing a large amount of potassium and calcium, stimulates the production of collagen, which gives the skin firmness, elasticity, and firmness. The vitamin A it contains eliminates dryness and flaking, and vitamin B6 works on the formation of new skin cells. Upon contact with the epidermis, after providing a tonic effect, the cold cubes begin to melt, turning into a healthy liquid that is intensively absorbed into the skin. By performing such a simple and short procedure, you will quickly give your skin a fresh, radiant look.

Facial rejuvenation procedures
The very first thing you need to do when the thought strikes you that it’s time to do procedures is to make an appointment with a cosmetologist. There is no point in looking for a universal procedure, sifting through reviews on various Internet resources, comparing the power of devices and the density of fillers.
All this knowledge is undoubtedly useful for the general development and understanding of the topic, but it will not allow you to choose your own procedures, because facial assessment skills and all practical nuances are available only to a professional.
Facial rejuvenation after 50 years
The approach to facial rejuvenation after 50 years and, for example, after 30, of course, is different. In the first case, complex effects cannot be avoided, because often the quality of the skin leaves much to be desired (sagging, wrinkles, spots), and the volumetric component is lost. Moreover, during orgasm, processes take place, including those of a hormonal nature, which do not help the work of a cosmetologist in any way, but rather the opposite. But in the case when patients come on time, about 30 years old, when all resources are still preserved, age-related changes on the face have just appeared, then the cosmetologist has the opportunity to give results quickly, with minimal costs, and most importantly, focus on the prevention of aging.
Cautions
Thin and sensitive skin of the neck and chest, in contact with aggressive or overly active substances, is easily irritated. Therefore, when preparing to conduct a course of anti-aging masks, you must first pass a test for individual tolerance to their components
To do this, just take a small amount of the prepared tightening mask and apply it in an inconspicuous place - for example, in the upper part of the neck, under the ear. Whether this composition is right for you will become clear within 15–20 minutes - there should be no redness at the test site.
How to make facial skin elastic at home
In order for facial skin to be firm and elastic, it is necessary that the body has enough water and collagen. With age, the amount of these components gradually decreases. Not everyone drinks 1.5 liters of clean water a day. And this, according to cosmetologists and nutritionists, is the necessary amount of fluid to maintain beauty and health. Collagen levels gradually decrease, and by the age of 80 it becomes approximately four times less.
This cannot but affect the condition of the skin. It gradually loses its firmness and elasticity and begins to sag. The oval of the face changes sharply, which is very upsetting for the fair sex. Many people decide to take drastic measures and turn to a plastic surgeon for help. The results of surgical interventions are not always successful and are not safe for health. What to do in this case?
It is necessary to ensure that the body receives a sufficient amount of nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. If they are lacking, it is difficult to count on a good result. Cleansing procedures, steam baths, special diets, massage, exercises, drinking herbal decoctions, masks will help restore skin elasticity. Everything must work together.
