Hydrogen purification
Hydrogen cleansing is a multi-step cosmetic treatment, during which skin cells are deeply cleansed, revitalized and nourished, all thanks to hydrogen molecules introduced under pressure. This treatment combines several different technologies - the aforementioned hydrogen cleansing, ion infusion and cavitation peeling. Due to the specialized terms and their somewhat complicated overtones, a brief explanation: ion infusion is the introduction of nutrients into the skin in the form of ions, such as in the form of a serum, as well as substances that exfoliate dead skin.
Cavitation peeling, on the other hand, aims to break up and remove this dead skin using ultrasound waves (Ultrasound affects the increased permeability of cell membranes, stimulates circulation and improves cellular metabolism, dilates blood vessels, which in turn leads to the vibration of cells and the creation of a thermal effect, thereby relaxing the muscles and regenerating the skin by putting the client's skin structures into a state of relaxation. This stage improves blood and lymph flow, and stimulates the remodeling process of collagen and elastin fibers.
This can give a powerful regeneration of the skin, the face regains a rested appearance). Hydrogen skin cleansing itself is performed with a jet of water, where the particles penetrate deep into the cells and eliminate free radicals, which are largely responsible for the skin aging process(Free radicals are reactive oxygen species. The molecules remain on the surface of the epidermis, blocking the oxygen supply, leading to clogged skin and the formation of blackheads.
The process that has the most intense effect on increasing the amount of free radicals is UV and UVA radiation, so it is extremely important to use a suitable cream with UVA filter all year round). - and all thanks to electroporation, is the phenomenon of the formation of micro channels in the skin thanks to electrical impulses, by which active substances are better absorbed.
Most importantly, this treatment can be performed on any type of skin (including vascular, which usually requires specialized and delicate care, and many popular treatments are not for it), throughout the year, the possible limitation is pregnancy or breastfeeding, which is already worth discussing individually with the cosmetologist (although there may be a few exceptional situations when the treatment will not be additionally indicated, which will be discussed below).
It is also worth mentioning that this is a treatment for both men and women. Additional advantages of this type of therapy for the skin are: non-invasive, painless, this treatment does not require prior preparation or a subsequent recovery period.

How much does hydrogen purification cost?
The cost of this treatment depends on many factors: on the brand and quality of the equipment on which it will be performed (for example, our hydrogen purification equipment), on the substances that will be used during it and even on the location of the cosmetic salon / aesthetic salon on the map of Poland, in larger cities such as Warsaw or Wroclaw the treatment will cost a bit more than in smaller towns. Taking all these factors into account, the cost of one treatment will range from 200-300 PLN.

Face and neck are priced from about 300-400zl, and the total package ranges from 350-500zl, depending on the office (you will find less popular offices with a lower price range, but less guarantee of the effectiveness of the treatment, which is often based on customer reviews).
Does hydrogen purification remove blackheads?
What are blackheads? They are otherwise known as blackheads - impurities, sebum that accumulate especially in the dilated pores of our skin. The treatment called hydrogen cleansing deep cleans the skin, so yes - it also removes the so popular and unwanted blackheads, but not permanently.
Therefore, it is worth performing several series of treatments to consolidate the effect and refresh the skin regularly, which will help to narrow the pores and reduce the amount of dirt absorbed by the skin, thus reducing the formation of blackheads.
How often to do a hydrogen facial cleansing?
The answer to this question is not and will never be universal, which is usually true of all cosmetic or aesthetic medicine treatments available on the market. The frequency of treatments depends on a number of factors, such as the susceptibility of the skin to hydrogen cleansing, the selection and verification of the action of the active substances used, the individual reaction of the skin.
The standard recommended number of visits to the office should perhaps give a series of three to five treatments, at intervals of two to four weeks, but you should discuss this directly with the cosmetologist who will take care of it and perhaps select additional treatments on occasion that will help us achieve the desired effect faster and more efficiently.
Is hydrogen purification painful?
This question can certainly be answered: no, hydrogen cleansing is not painful. As mentioned in the introduction at this treatment there is a phenomenon of electroporation, therefore it is a kind of mesotherapy, only that needle-free.
The procedure itself is not painful, it may be felt at times as a gentle pinching, especially in the bone and nose area, that is, where the skin is slightly thinner. Other than that, there should be no fear of any pain during or after the procedure.
Of course, it is important to keep in mind the occurrence of each client's individual pain threshold, everyone may have different sensations, but this is one of the treatments where there is practically the previously mentioned painlessness.
To sum up, hydrogen facial cleansing has been an extremely popular treatment lately, due to its non-invasiveness, , painlessness and the fact that it can be performed regardless of skin type. It is worth introducing it permanently into the repertoire of a beauty salon, as it is sure to attract many clients and customers.
It is a procedure that is ideally suited as a prelude to many other treatments, and for maximum satisfying results, it is recommended to combine it with such treatments as manual facial therapy, anti-aging masks, lifting, etc. The treatment on its own can also produce stunning results with gray, tired skin - sometimes it is enough to check its effect before performing more invasive methods to improve the condition and appearance of our skin.
Interestingly, in some offices it is possible to perform hydrogen cleansing not only on the face, neck and décolleté, but also on the back, which gives results, for example, in tangentially recurring pimples, caused by clogged pores in this area as well.
It is an ideal treatment for those who do not want or are afraid to use chemical acids in skin care, or are simply allergic to them. It's also great for anyone who can't do mechanical deep cleansing peels or microdermabrasion.
So far in cosmetology, it is the most versatile and safe type of therapy so widely and e affecting any type of skin, so there is no reason to be surprised that it is more and more willing and chosen by specialists and clients.
It is also a suitable treatment for busy people who want to save time spent on more complicated, long-lasting treatments that produce similar results, not once in a longer time frame, while here already a moment after the first treatment a significant change in the appearance of the face is noticeable, and not once also physical relief, if the skin was severely dry and tight, irritated and reddened.
If clients are asking for a treatment that brings relief and immediate improvement in appearance, you can certainly recommend hydrogen cleansing as the very treatment that will meet their expectations. In many beauty salons you will find this treatment available in a basic version and also enriched with individual additional procedures prepared by specialists, which is an added advantage.
