I often see advertisements for different doctors' pages on my Instagram. Most often, these are cosmetologists. It is understandable, because the main audience of this network is busy admiring themselves in digital form, and Photoshop is not enough for them 
. But that's not what I'm talking about.
Usually, when I visit such pages, I see blatant incompetence. Therefore, in this post, I will describe the common misconceptions of such specialists, and also describe which procedures/remedies are useful, and which are a money-grab and harmful.
Botox . The procedure makes sense, especially for some people who have been involved in sports for a long time. Usually, such people have all their muscles in hypertonicity, compared to non-athletic people. The procedure itself is not complicated and does not require a lot of brains from the cosmetologist. It is enough to study the anatomy and some aspects of injections. However, even with this, there are idiots who inject the patient's entire face. This leads to the inability to express any emotions with facial expressions and problems with lymph drainage . If you see this on the page of a cosmetologist, feel free to send him away.
Acne . This is a sore subject for many. This problem is becoming more common every year. The reason for this (in my opinion and some scientists) is the abundance of various fat-soluble toxins. For example, these are phenolic derivatives such as bisphenol A. This crap is now added everywhere - cosmetics, plastic bottles, etc. Of course, this is partly a hypothesis, but it is definitely possible to say - cosmetologists are not able to effectively treat this problem. This problem is internal! They only eliminate external consequences, such as clogged pores of the sebaceous glands, inflammation, scars. And even this is sometimes done incorrectly. 
Therefore, if you see promises to cure acne with expensive cosmetics, without any interventions "from the inside" - also send them away. Do the same with cosmetologists who prescribe retinoids, they definitely do not understand the effect of these substances.
Peels . This only makes sense in rare cases. For example, to remove scars. Doing it just like that, and often, is complete stupidity. This injures the skin and damages the DNA of fibroblasts (the cells that create collagen and elastin)
Fillers - not everyone can inject these substances. The thing is that fillers "strain" the immune system. For it, this is something incomprehensible that is difficult to remove from the body. By the way, this topic also includes tattoos on the whole body and silicone implants.
If a person has some defects to fill and at the same time everything is ok with health, there is no anemia, autoimmunity - only then can fillers be used.
Mesotherapy . This is the introduction of various nutrients through subcutaneous injections. Here you should clearly understand what we are introducing and for what purpose. Usually this understanding is completely absent. Cosmetologists inject you with what marketing has sold them. Often without indications, but with the goal of making money on you.
Cosmetics . The same with mesotherapy. A complete lack of understanding why and what it leads to. There are many examples. For example, there is mega expensive cosmetics from the Yankees under the ironic brand name is clinical. It has a primitive composition, like aloe + vitamin C. But some cosmetologists sell it to everyone, maybe they are paid for this, I don’t know.. Another example, wherever there are stories about stimulating collagen synthesis, this is complete nonsense. Remember - a lot of collagen is bad, it is a tendency to scars . Cosmetics / cosmetologists who promise you such an effect play on your illiteracy.
From useful cosmetics, we can note products with probiotics and extracts of some plants that regulate the skin's immunity and relieve oxidative stress. But this is a separate topic.
