Indications for the procedure
Deep cleansing is indicated for severe skin problems:
- acne, pimples, inflammation, sebaceous plugs;
- impaired functioning of the sebaceous glands - excessive oiliness or flaking, dryness;
- enlarged pores, blackheads;
- age spots, acne scars, post-acne, lumpy relief;
- the presence of the first age or facial wrinkles.
You can use cleansing not only for oily or combination skin types. On aging skin, Holy Land cosmetics improve texture and turgor, eliminate the first wrinkles, smooth out, and enhance regeneration processes thanks to comprehensive cleansing of impurities.
Stages of implementation
It is advisable to carry out the procedure in a salon, where a specialist can monitor all stages of applying the facial cleanser and evaluate the result, as well as give recommendations for subsequent care.
Procedure protocol:
- Makeup removal is carried out. Remove the remnants of cosmetics, wash away surface sebum, dust, and dirt.
- ABR peeling from the same manufacturer is applied to the skin for 15 minutes. Vaporization (opening the pores) allows you to cleanse keratinized particles of the epidermis due to the salicylic and fruit acids included in the composition, as well as prepare the skin for further cleaning.
- Applying ABR Prepping lotion. Contains benzoic acid, camphor and menthol. It opens and cleanses pores well, degreases and disinfects.
- The next step is to apply a peeling roll containing whey. Exposure time is about 10 minutes. This product softens sebaceous plugs and opens pores as much as possible.
- After this, a mask is applied. Its composition and purpose are determined by a cosmetologist depending on the existing problems. For oily skin, use a disinfectant; for dry, dehydrated and flaky skin, use a mask with nourishing and softening ingredients. For those who are sensitive, choose products with a vasoconstrictor effect, for example, LACTOLAN Peeling Cream mask. Additionally, after applying the mask, a specialist can treat problematic skin with a Uno spoon - a tool for cleansing the skin and removing blackheads.
- After this, the epidermis is treated with a product, most often a lotion or tonic, to tighten the pores.
- Sunscreen is applied, because after cleaning, the upper stratum corneum of the epidermis becomes sensitive to ultraviolet radiation and can “respond” with the formation of age spots.
- At the last stage, antiseptic powder is applied, which reduces the risk of bacteria and infection. This powder contains antiseptic substances that prevent inflammation.
The entire procedure is carried out under sterile conditions , since, even despite the atraumatic nature of cleaning, microorganisms can get inside through open pores and inflammation on the skin, which will only aggravate the inflammatory process.

ULTRASONIC CLEANING
What is ultrasonic cleaning?
Unlike other methods, ultrasound peeling removes only old cells, without injuring new, young ones at all.
When carrying out a combined ultrasonic peeling procedure, the skin is cleansed, thereby improving the natural hydration of the skin. As a result of very careful and gentle exposure to ultrasound, the upper layer of the epidermis is renewed, and the skin becomes soft, fresh and renewed. The face looks younger, superficial wrinkles are smoothed out. In addition, ultrasonic peeling facilitates the penetration of various cosmetics into the skin. Before attending a session, it is important to read reviews about cosmetologists in advance.
What happens to the skin during the procedure?
Ultrasonic peeling is considered softer and safer. It does not provoke allergies, does not irritate the skin, is suitable for all skin types, and can be done at any time of the year.
Ultrasound cleanses and tightens pores, gently cleanses the skin of dead cells, and at the same time gives a lifting effect, as the ultrasonic wave stimulates the appearance of collagen and elastin fibers.
What is the result of ultrasonic cleaning?
Ultrasound has a restorative and rejuvenating effect, does not subject the skin to compression and stretching, and does not disturb its top layer (when using ultrasonic facial cleansing, hand squeezing is not required, which causes injury to the skin).
Microvibration carried out by ultrasound performs the function of micromassage at the cellular level. Blood composition improves, immunity increases, metabolism activates, tissue regeneration (renewal) increases. Ultrasound activates redox processes and promotes the formation of collagen and elastin.
Can the procedure be done often?
Certainly! As already mentioned, ultrasound peeling is so safe and gentle that it can be done every 7 days.
