The first signs of skin aging appear when you are 25 years old. Unfortunately, these boundaries are usually not the earliest date, but the latest detection of age problems. Rough laser resurfacing for rejuvenation is now a procedure from yesterday, and with good reason, as women have the opportunity to perform without "resuscitation" of very long reddish skin and, essentially, trauma during the procedure.
The latest technology, minimally invasive and safe - fractional laser skin rejuvenation, restoring and accelerating cell rhythm (growth and metabolism, as well as removal of harmful substances).
How does it work? When exposed to a focused laser beam, micro damage to skin tissue occurs with "columns" or "cones" directed perpendicular to the surface of the skin. The cells surrounding the microdamage go into a state of heat shock, which causes them to begin to actively split to restore the skin area at the microdamage site. As a result, this causes tightening of the damaged area, which makes the skin smooth, removes wrinkles practically and has a noticeable lifting effect.
Indicators for fractional laser rejuvenation, the advantages of this procedure
Laser rejuvenation treatment is a savior to various problems:
- dull skin;
- unclear facial contours, blurred oval, loose skin;
- fine and deep wrinkles;
- enlarged pores;
- scars and scars, including those caused by acne;
- visible age spots and capillaries;
- stretch marks.
Modern laser cosmetology is characterized by pain and comfort during the procedure. There are no traumatic effects, there is practically no risk (note the list of simple contraindications at the end of the article). The biggest advantage is quick recovery. In fact, the main recovery period lasts 1-2 days. This time it is determined by the diameter of the skin microdamage by the laser, the smaller, the faster the recovery will go through (e. g. , fractional rejuvenation with CO2RE lasers has received a lot of warm reviews). You will not experience undue scars or skin rash, after the first procedure you will see results immediately, and it will not be covered with severe swelling or redness on the skin.
Features of modern laser facial rejuvenation procedures
First of all, they clean the skin in areas exposed to lasers from contamination and cosmetics. Next, an anesthetic cream is used (note that no overly caring clinic ignores this drug), which almost completely eliminates the unpleasant sensation during the procedure itself, and overcomes directly to work with the laser. What you will feel is warmth and maybe a subtle tingling sensation.
When choosing a doctor, focus primarily on the level of adequacy, responsibility and participation. The specialist must clearly understand what you want and give you a detailed idea of how it can be achieved and what is needed for this. Together you choose the optimal procedure scheme, select the optimal mode and depth of exposure. Be sure to listen to all the advice to treat yourself during recovery, to know other procedures (fillers, injections, massages or masks) that can be done for best effect, and which ones are not timely.
The duration of the procedure, as well as the number of procedures required in a course, depends on the task / problem you perform to the aesthetic medical center or clinic. On average, facial and décolleté treatment takes about an hour; the procedure can be single or require 1-2 repetitions with an interval of 2-6 months between them.
In the early days, a slight redness may occur, in the first week, dead skin cells will peel off. One of the important recommendations of experts during this period is the use of creams with high protection factors against harmful ultraviolet radiation. According to various estimates, the effect of fractional laser rejuvenation can last up to 2 years.
Contraindications to laser rejuvenation procedures: pregnancy and lactation, exacerbation of neurodermatitis and psoriasis, inflammation in the laser treatment area, acute infectious diseases, neoplasms in the treatment area, blood clotting disorders and systemic connective tissue disease, oncology, epilepsy. Fractional laser rejuvenation should be looked forward to if you had a fresh / active tan at the tanning salon last month, as this has significantly increased your skin sensitivity.
