This is not a complete list of the positive qualities of laser rejuvenation, with this method you can get rid of almost all skin imperfections in a short time and without health risks. The main thing is to choose an experienced specialist, who is recommended to perform such a procedure exclusively in a specialized clinic.
How is laser rejuvenation done?
Immediately before starting the procedure, a thorough facial cleansing, which is used for gentle scrubbing and exfoliating compositions, is required. Laser treatment is performed exclusively on clean skin.
Depending on the desired end result, both the facial area and the entire surface of the skin can be treated with laser. The best option is to rejuvenate not only on the face, but also on the neck and décolleté.
Laser rays penetrate deep into the skin, warming its inner layers, thereby actively reducing old collagen fibers, which automatically trigger new production. Laser rejuvenation of the face is performed in impulses of 0. 2 to 0. 5 ms, which is completely safe and without risk to human health.
The result of laser exposure to the skin is a newly formed recovery focus - a separate part of the face, where the active process of natural elastin production takes place. The big advantage is the fact that the outer layer of the skin has an intact microscopic area, this makes the recovery process almost invisible externally, that is, there is no transition point between the renewed skin, no swelling and bruising.
After the end of the process, the face is treated with a special emollient solution, it is not recommended to use decorative cosmetics for several hours and stay in the sun for a long time. Otherwise, there are no contraindications, although most experts recommend that the first days after the session do not visit the beach and solarium, and also do not expose your face to strong weather and contact with salt or chlorinated water.
