Principle of the procedure
To carry out a parafango wrap, purified cosmetic paraffin, sea mud and algae are used - bladderwrack and kelp. The components are highly fortified and contain iodine, nicotinic acid, retinol, vitamins B, C, K, D and E.
Parafango wrap is a salon spa treatment. It uses purified cosmetic paraffin, heated to 50-54 degrees, which provides lasting protection against burns.
Before using the mixture, problem areas are cleaned with a special salt scrub. For stagnant cellulite, a serum is used that normalizes the water-salt balance and ensures microcirculation of blood in the tissues.
After the preparatory manipulations, a mixture of parafango is applied to the body, the areas are wrapped in a special film to create a greenhouse effect and covered with a heat-resistant blanket. The final stage of the wrap is an anti-cellulite massage using cosmetic cream.

Parafango applique
Used primarily as a medicinal therapy. The mixture is identical to the cosmetic one - sulfide sea mud and cosmetic paraffin. Apply a heated layer 1 cm thick to problem areas. It is kept for 40-50 minutes, corresponding to the wrapping.
Baths for hands and feet
They are used to eliminate dryness and redness of the delicate skin of the hands, and prevent aging and wilting. Parafango for feet is used as a softener for rough skin on the feet, getting rid of hard calluses, cracks and corns, and also effectively relieves fatigue and pain in the feet. It is produced by heating the mixture in a special heating apparatus, after which it is necessary to dip your hands or feet into the molten mixture several times, alternating with removing them from it. After the mass hardens, it is necessary to wait for 20-30 minutes, then remove the layers and treat the skin with cream or cosmetic milk.
What determines the price of a wrap?
The price of a wrap in a beauty salon or cosmetology clinic directly depends on the mixture used for the procedure. For example, at the PRAGA clinic, one session of the “chocolate” Algologie program costs several times more than a honey wrap.
The cost of the procedure for the whole body is the highest. Therefore, many patients limit themselves only to wrapping problem areas - the abdomen, thighs, legs.
The most popular wrap is for the abdomen, thanks to which it is possible to remove fat, tighten the skin and restore its elasticity, and make stretch marks less noticeable.
Parafango wraps at home
Step-by-step implementation of the parafango wrapping procedure at home:
- Cleanse and exfoliate rough skin with a sea salt scrub. It can be purchased at beauty supply stores, or you can make it yourself using oil and coarse salt.
- Apply anti-cellulite serum or oil to problem areas.
- Melt the paraffin in a paraffin bath. An alternative to a ready-made heating apparatus is a regular steam bath. After the cosmetic paraffin reaches a liquid consistency, add a mixture of dirt and algae into it.
- Steam the mixture, bringing it to a homogeneous consistency, and cool slightly.
- Apply the prepared warm mixture evenly to problem areas using a hard brush in several layers.
- Wrap the mass localization areas with thick cellophane film. Take a horizontal position and relax, cover your body with a warm blanket. Leave the wrap on for at least 30 minutes.
- Parafango wrapping is notable for the fact that when it hardens, it does not stain household textiles and does not force the mixture to be washed off the skin. The layers are evenly and easily separated from body parts by hand. After removing the paraffin mass, it is advisable to treat the areas with cream, oil or milk. The procedure will not only help get rid of cellulite and shape your figure, but also increase tone, improving the overall condition of the skin.

Properties of parafango (paraffin)
What is so wonderful about paraffin? First of all, the paraffin you need is not simple, but cosmetic.
It differs from the usual one in the degree of purification and in that it does not contain dyes or other unnecessary frills, but contains useful cosmetic additives: various extracts, oils and vitamins that will help smooth out cellulite tubercles.
Paraffin, cooling very slowly, heats the skin by about 1 - 1.5 degrees. This slight increase in temperature is quite enough to obtain an anti-cellulite effect.
It is achieved through:
- The so-called “sauna effect”. Under the influence of hot paraffin, increased sweating begins. This leads to an acceleration of metabolic processes, stimulation of the process of lipid destruction and smoothing of the skin.
- Water does not evaporate due to the paraffin film, it penetrates back into the skin, and toxins remain on the surface of the body. The skin is filled with moisture and tightened.
- Lymphatic drainage effect of cooling paraffin. When cooling, the paraffin slightly decreases in volume, the paraffin film tightly fits the body, slightly compresses it and literally squeezes excess liquid out of the skin. As a result, swelling decreases and skin condition improves.
- Under the influence of elevated temperatures, the cosmetic components contained in paraffin easily penetrate through the pores deep into the epidermis and exert their beneficial effects on your skin.
For your information! When the paraffin is removed, its beneficial effect continues until the skin cools down. That is, the processes of resorption of cellulite nodules and smoothing of the skin continue.
Courses of procedures and their frequency
The duration of the salon session is calculated by the cosmetologist, based on the individual characteristics of the client’s body, his problem and the purpose of using the wraps. A standard course of parafango wrap consists of 5-10 sessions, depending on the initial condition of the skin. The time interval between procedures is 3 days. Usually the course lasts several weeks. In this case, the client can count on the effectiveness and sustainability of the result.
Parafango baths for hands and feet are performed less frequently and take less time. However, for medicinal purposes the course can be quite long.
Parafango wrap is also used to treat specific diseases, such as osteochondrosis, joint dysfunction, spinal diseases, and venous edema. In this case, the course and duration of sessions is set by the doctor and can reach 15-20 procedures, depending on the initial condition and subsequent dynamics.
Precautions when using body paraffin
Different areas of the body require an individual approach when applying paraffin wraps.
It is also important to learn how to properly apply and remove the product from the body. You may not be able to do the procedure yourself the first time, so it is better to seek the help of family members or friends. When wrapping with paraffin, consider the following:
- Time
. The first procedure should take no more than fifteen minutes. Then gradually increase to sixty minutes. As for the face, the paraffin mask is removed after twenty minutes in any case; it cannot be left on longer. - Temperature.
Monitor the heating level of the paraffin; it should not exceed 55 degrees. It is also allowed to increase the temperature by 7 degrees if you tolerate such procedures well. First, dip your finger in paraffin, if it is not hot, you can begin the procedure. - Heating paraffin
. Melt paraffin in three ways. You can use a water bath, or you can place the paraffin in the oven or microwave. It is preferable to choose the first method, since others are dangerous for household appliances. - Application technique
. The skin should not be cold; warm up the body in advance with massage, exercise or shower. Apply gradually to the desired areas using a wide brush. Dip your hands and feet into paraffin several times. - Removal technique
. It is necessary to remove paraffin from the face carefully from bottom to top. The material is removed from the body in reverse - from top to bottom. It is removed from the feet from the ankle to the toes. Hands are freed from the layer of paraffin from the wrist to the fingers. - Frequency of application
. It is recommended to carry out such procedures every three days. The course should not exceed fifteen times, then it is important to take a break for a month. - Relaxation
. After you have applied paraffin and wrapped yourself well, take a horizontal position and try to disconnect from all your affairs and problems. The body should be as relaxed as possible for the effect of the procedure to be stronger.
