However, over time, these procedures become less. Therefore, it is worth including other methods, for example, paraffin therapy, in regular care. We will find out what are the benefits and features of the popular procedure, and to whom it is categorically contraindicated.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hands, our tireless workers and helpers, rest only when we sleep. The rest of the time we exploit them mercilessly: we force them to contact either with cold or with heat; exposed to the aggressive influence of detergents; not well protected from wind, heat and frost. In retaliation for inattention to ourselves, the appearance of our hands can visually add several years to our actual age. So if you do not intend to wear gloves all year round or constantly hide your hands in your pockets from the eyes of others, think about how to keep them young and beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>There are many ways to rejuvenate and improve the skin of the hands. Paraffin therapy is one of the most affordable, effective and at the same time very pleasant procedures that you can do both in the salon and at home.<\/p>\n<p>Paraffin therapy is extremely relevant during the change of seasons, in winter and spring.

At this time, a warm paraffin bath for your hands will be most welcome.<\/p>\n<h2>The benefits of paraffin therapy<\/h2>\n<p>Paraffin bath &#8211; local hand sauna.<\/p>\n<p>Melted paraffin gently wraps around your hands.

It will lift your spirits and give you a sense of self-confidence.<\/p>\n<p>Paraffin baths for hands affect both skin and nails. Therefore, you can safely combine 2 procedures &#8211; manicure and paraffin therapy. Just remember that you should always do a manicure first, and only then paraffin therapy. After a warm bath, the hands and nails will be steamed, which is good for removing the cuticle, but completely unacceptable for working with the nail plate &#8211; it can exfoliate. In addition, any varnish coating does not fit well on the cream, which is usually moistened with hands after removing the paraffin film.<\/p>\n<h2>Contraindications to paraffin therapy<\/h2>\n<p>Paraffin baths, if highly purified cosmetic paraffin is used for them, are an absolutely safe procedure.

Cold paraffin is more saturated with active ingredients than its &#8220;hot relative&quot;. It includes essential oils, vitamins, proteins, plant extracts and other beneficial ingredients.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of cold paraffin therapy, the skin on the hands becomes as soft and silky as after a hot paraffin bath. But the effect obtained lasts even longer, because the structure of cold paraffin is denser than that of the usual one.<\/p>\n<h2>Features of paraffin therapy<\/h2>\n<p>Paraffin baths should be practiced not only when the hands are desperately signaling SOS.
