Fractional laser skin rejuvenation

pros and cons of facial skin rejuvenation with laser

The aging process is the natural biological law of any human organism. Inevitably, signs of skin aging in the form of wrinkles, decreased tone and age spots appear on various parts of the body. The face, due to the constant influence of ultraviolet radiation, the work of facial muscles and chewing, tends to wither easily. For obvious reasons, women of all ages want to keep their face fresh and youthful. In such situations, it is not only creams and masks that save, but also skin rejuvenation using fractional exposure.

The essence and advantages of the method

This technology is high frequency energy exposure to the skin. Beams with a certain wavelength produce a thermal reaction, or rather, evaporate cells at a predetermined depth. Loss of several cells provokes the synthesis of collagen and elastin fibers. With increasing age, there is a significant decrease in the synthesis of collagen and elastin in skin thickness. It is this fiber that gives the skin elasticity and longevity, in fact it is the building material of the epidermis and dermis. Thus, under laser action, the face is refreshed.

Laser rejuvenation is a modern technique that has proven itself in the cosmetology services market. Let's look at some of the benefits:

  • Fractional treatment is a painless procedure. Even the minimum discomfort, according to reviews, does not exist.
  • This technology shows minimal damage to the skin, as traces after therapy disappear in 4-5 days.
  • This technology allows you to work large areas at a time. This approach maximally activates the regenerative process, which leads to active smoothing of wrinkles.

Side effects and adverse reactions after the described intervention are very rare. The most common are hyperemia and flaking in the treatment area, self-relieving itching. Occasionally there is an activation of a herpes infection. With the frequent fragility of herpes, it is necessary to consult with a dermatologist and infectious disease specialist before performing fractional rejuvenation.

What is the treatment method

A therapy session takes 25 to 40 minutes. Reparative therapy can be applied to the face, neck and décolleté. In the office, the patient is lying down and can rest.

For maximum effect, 3-4 procedures are required. The optimum interval between sessions is 2 to 4 weeks. During this time, the epidermis and dermis fully restore their regrowth potential. The standard course consists of 4 procedures. The most noticeable visual effect can be seen 3 months after the end of the course. If necessary, the session can be repeated after 1 year.

In the end, there is a strong possibility of itching or a mild burning sensation, which will stop on its own after 1-2 hours. Unexpressed hyperemia and swelling persist for 2-3 days. During the early recovery period, dermatologists recommend using dextpanthenol healing ointment and spray.

Hygiene is allowed on the day of the intervention, only visits to the bathtub or pool will be restricted throughout the week. Do not neglect sunscreen - the part after treatment is very sensitive to ultraviolet light.

Fractional exposure is an effective method, its effect on the signs of aging has been proven by scientific research. Safety, pain and comfort interventions make it one of the most popular in cosmetology practice.
