Advantages of laser fractionated face rejuvenation

The facial skin inevitably undergoes a natural aging process, which can be resisted by modern cosmetics and cosmetic procedures.

One of these procedures is laser facial rejuvenation - thanks to the technique, regeneration and cell regeneration mechanisms are activated, the facial skin acquires a new, fresh and well-groomed look.

In cosmetology, a special laser is used to eliminate various skin problems. Fractional laser skin rejuvenation is quite popular - a cosmetological procedure, after which you can increase the elasticity of the skin, remove fine and deep wrinkles and tighten the oval of the face. Upon completion of the session course, you will look several years younger.

Nature and influence of technology

Laser skin rejuvenation is a technique in which laser radiation acts on the skin. It uses a laser source - a laser installation - an apparatus on which it is possible to adjust the depth of penetration of the laser beam into the skin, the exposure time and the radiation temperature.

The correct choice of the parameters of the procedure is the most important condition for successful rejuvenation, because at the slightest mistake of the beautician, burns can appear on the face.

Upon penetration into tissues, the laser beam causes minor cell damage in response to the resulting irritation, the cells begin to actively produce collagen and elastin, and new cell growth is restored.

Stimulation of regeneration processes leads to complete regeneration of the facial skin, its regeneration. The second name of the procedure is laser peeling.

Advantages and disadvantages of peeling

• Possibility to make any type of skin.
• Minimal risk of side effects (burns and hyperpigmentation).
• Painlessness.
• Short skin renewal terms.
• Ability to treat large areas of skin in one go.

The disadvantage of partial peeling is its high cost compared to other methods, but given the efficiency of the procedure, this disadvantage can be considered insignificant.

Types of laser restoration

Depending on the depth of laser penetration, there are several types of laser restoration:

1. Laser coating restoration. . . The laser "acts" on the surface layer of the epidermis to exfoliate dead cells. The result of the procedure becomes noticeable after a week: the skin becomes a velvety touch, fine wrinkles disappear. Three types of laser beams are used during the procedure: erbium, carbon or neodymium.
2. Laser biorevitalization. . . Radiation enters the deep layers of the skin, while some cells are destroyed. The technique is tougher than laser resurfacing, but it has a strong aging effect. To enhance the effect of the laser, the beautician applies a mixture of nutrients to the skin. After the procedure, deep wrinkles disappear and the contour of the face improves. Recovery after biorevitalization takes place within three months, during which time swelling and strong peeling of the epidermis may persist on the face.
3. Fractional peeling. . . Fractional laser restoration is the most effective and at the same time gentle method. The peculiarity of the procedure lies in the fact that the laser beam is divided into many microstars, which makes the skin softer. The radiation enters the skin in the form of an eye, so there are intact areas between the foci of cell damage - it promotes faster tissue regeneration and a stronger rejuvenating effect. The intensity of the beam during fractional peeling can be changed using a carbon dioxide or erbium laser.

Stages of the procedure

You must see an appointment with a beautician before performing the procedure. The doctor identifies the existing problems, asks the patient if the procedure has contraindications, talks about how the laser restoration will take place.

If the patient's skin is subject to increased pigmentation, a whitening cream is prescribed a few days before the restoration session. The patient should be aware that sports, strenuous physical activity or alcohol should not be performed prior to the procedure.

Sequence of partial peeling:

1. The face is cleansed using ordinary cosmetics.
2. An anesthetic cream is applied to the skin.
3. After a few minutes, the anesthetic is washed off and a gel is applied to help the nozzle of the fractionated apparatus slip. Glasses are placed on the patient's eyes.
4. The doctor moves the nozzle across your face, successively affecting each area with a laser.
5. The procedure lasts 15-60 minutes, after which a soothing cream is applied to the skin.

In total, you have to go through 3-4 procedures, the interval between them is 1-2 months.

Home skin care

After laser treatment, swelling, redness, peeling and itching appear on the skin, followed by the formation of crusts. Patients should follow these recommendations:

1. To relieve swelling, apply a cold compress to the face.
2. Apply anti-inflammatory and soothing creams to the skin (prescribed by a beautician).
3. Use a face cream before going outside.
4. Two weeks after the procedure, do not go to the sauna, hot tub.
5. Do not use scrubs; use cosmetics only with the permission of a beautician.
