The first signs of skin aging appear when you turn 25 years old. Unfortunately, this limit is usually not the earliest date, but the most recent detection of age problems. Hard laser surface treatment for rejuvenation is now a procedure from yesterday, and with good reason, because women have the opportunity to do without the long "resuscitation" of the skin, which is very reddish and essentially traumatized during the procedure.
The latest, minimally invasive and safe technology - fractional laser skin rejuvenation, restoration and acceleration of 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 occurs to the skin tissue with a "pillar" or "cone" perpendicular to the skin surface. The cells surrounding the microdamage go into a state of heat shock, beginning active division to restore the skin area instead of microdamages. As a result, this leads to tightening of the damaged area, giving the skin smoothing, virtually erasing wrinkles and a noticeable lifting effect.
Indications for fractional laser rejuvenation, the benefits of this procedure
Laser rejuvenation procedures are a life-saving cure for a variety of problems:
- dull complexion;
- fuzzy facial contours, blurred oval, loose skin
- fine and deep wrinkles
- enlarged pores;
- scars and scars, including those caused by acne
- age spots and visible capillaries;
- stretch marks.
Modern laser cosmetology is characterized by pain relief and comfort during the procedure. There are no traumatic effects, there are virtually no risks (note the modest list of contraindications at the end of the article). The main advantage is rapid recovery. In essence, the primary rehabilitation period lasts 1-2 days. This time is determined by the diameter of the skin's microdamage by the laser; the smaller it is, the faster the rehabilitation will pass (for example, fractional rejuvenation with the CO2RE laser has earned many fantastic reviews). You will not get scars or unnatural glow in the skin, after the first procedure you will see the result immediately and it will not be masked by either swelling or severe redness of the skin.
Features of Modern Laser Facial Rejuvenation Procedures
First and foremost, they cleanse the skin in areas with planned exposure to the laser from contamination and cosmetics. Next, apply an anesthetic cream (note that there are not too many care clinics that ignore this remedy), which almost completely removes unpleasant sensations during the procedure itself and transcends directly to work with the laser. All you want to feel is warmth and maybe a subtle tingling sensation.
When choosing a physician, focus primarily on the degree of adequacy, responsibility, and participation. The specialist must clearly understand what you want and give you a detailed idea of how achievable it is and what is required for this. Together you select the optimal schedule for procedures, select the optimal mode and exposure depth. Be sure to listen to all the advice on caring for yourself during rehabilitation, find out what other procedures (fillers, injections, a course of massage or masks) can be performed to get the best effect, and for which it does notis the time.
The duration of the procedure as well as the number of required procedures in a course depends on the task / problem you are applying for at the Center for Aesthetic Medicine or Clinic. On average, the treatment of the skin of the face and décolleté takes about an hour; the procedure may be simple or require 1-2 repetitions with an interval of 2-6 months in between.
In the first days, slight redness is possible. During the first week, dead skin cells should peel off. One of the important recommendations from specialists during this period is the use of creams with a high protection factor 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, decreased blood clots and systemic connective tissue diseases, oncological diseases, epilepsy. Fractional laser rejuvenation is a bit worth the wait if you have a fresh tan / have been active in a tanning salon in the last month, as this has significantly increased your skin sensitivity.
