Abstract

The objective of the present study was to evaluate age-related characteristics of the facial skin in 60 women before and after a course of its electrostimulation. A software-hardware diagnostic complex was used to estimate the dermatological status of the patients and determine parameters of their cutaneous microcirculation based on the results of laser Doppler flowmetry. The patients' psychological conditions were evaluated using the wellbeing-activity-mood test. The results of the study indicate that electromyostimulation improves characteristics of the facial skin, such as its elasticity, and reduces skin line and wrinkles (rhytides). Electrostimulation has positive effect on cutaneous microcirculation in women with the hyperemic type of hemodynamics due to its decongestive action at the venular level and normalization of the arterioral tone. The high efficacy of electromyostimulation as a method for the correction of facial skin changes is most likely to be achieved in younger women having the inelastic facial skin, the hyperemic type of hemodynamics, and the low level of mood and activity.
