Fractionated laser facial skin rejuvenation

pros and cons of fractional facial rejuvenation with a laser

The aging process is a natural biological law for every human organism. Inevitably, signs appear that the skin fades in the form of wrinkles, decreased tone and age spots on various parts of the body. The face, due to the constant influence of ultraviolet radiation, the facial and chewing muscles, is particularly prone to withering. For obvious reasons, women of all ages want to keep their face fresh and youthful. In such a situation, not only creams and masks come to the rescue, but also skin rejuvenation through the use of fractional exposure.

The essence and benefits of the method

The technology is the exposure of high frequency energy to the skin. Beams of a certain wavelength produce thermal reactions, or rather, evaporate cells at a predetermined depth. The disappearance of some cells induces the synthesis of collagen and elastin fibers. With age, there is a significant reduction in the synthesis of collagen and elastin in the thickness of the skin. It is these fibers that give the skin elasticity and youth, in fact, like the building blocks of the epidermis and dermis. During the action of the laser, the face is thus rejuvenated.

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

  • Fractional treatment is absolutely painless procedure. Even the minimal discomfort, according to the reviews, is absent.
  • The technology involves minimal damage to the skin, as traces of treatment disappear within 4-5 days.
  • Technology allows you to work on a large area at a time. This approach activates the regenerative processes as much as possible, leading to an active smoothing of wrinkles.

Adverse reactions and side effects after the intervention described are extremely rare. The most typical are hyperemia and peeling in the treatment area, moderate self-relieving itching. Sometimes there is an activation of herpes infection. With frequent exacerbations of herpes, a consultation with a dermatologist and a specialist in infectious diseases is necessary before fractional rejuvenation.

What is the course of treatment

One therapy session takes 25 to 40 minutes. Repair therapy can be used on the face, neck and décolleté. In the office, the patient is lying down and can relax.

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

In the end, there is a high probability of itching or mild burning sensations, which will stop even after 1-2 hours. Hyperemia and unexpressed swelling persist for 2-3 days. In the early recovery period, dermatologists recommend using dextpanthenol healing ointments and sprays.

Hygiene care is allowed on the day of the intervention, only a visit to the sauna or pool should be limited during the week. Do not neglect sunscreen - the integration after treatment is particularly sensitive to ultraviolet light.

Fractional exposure is an effective method whose effect on signs of aging has been proven by scientific research. The safety, pain relief and comfort of the intervention make it one of the most popular in the field of cosmetology practice.
