Fractional laser rejuvenation of facial skin

pros and cons of fractional rejuvenation of facial skin with a laser

The aging process is a natural biological law of every human body. Inevitably, there are signs of fading of the skin 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 work of the facial and masticatory muscles, is particularly prone to wilting. For obvious reasons, women of all ages want to keep their face fresh and young. In such a situation, not only creams and masks come to the rescue, but also skin rejuvenation with the help of partial exposure.

Nature and advantages of the method

The technology is exposing the skin to high frequency energy. Beams of a certain wavelength cause thermal reactions, or rather evaporate the cells to a predetermined depth. The disappearance of some cells provokes the synthesis of collagen and elastin fibers. With age, there is a significant decrease in the synthesis of collagen and elastin in the thickness of the skin. It is these fibers that give the skin elasticity and youth, as in fact they are the building material of the epidermis and dermis. Thus, under the action of the laser, the face is rejuvenated.

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

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

Side effects and side effects after the described intervention are extremely rare. The most typical are hyperemia and peeling in the treatment area, moderate self-relieving itching. Sometimes there is an activation of a herpes infection. In case of frequent exacerbations of herpes, a dermatologist and a specialist in infectious diseases should be consulted before fractional rejuvenation.

What is the course of treatment

One therapy session lasts 25 to 40 minutes. Reparative therapy can be applied to the face, neck and décolleté. In the office, the patient is lying down and can relax.

3-4 procedures are needed to achieve 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 pronounced visual effect is noticed 3 months after the end of the course. If necessary, the sessions can be repeated after 1 year.

Finally, there is a high probability of itching or a slight burning sensation, which will stop only after 1-2 hours. Hyperemia and unexpressed edema persist for 2-3 days. During the early recovery period, dermatologists recommend the use of medicated ointments and sprays with dextpanthenol.

Hygienic care is allowed on the day of the intervention, only visits to the bathroom or pool should be limited during the week. Do not neglect sunscreens - the coatings after treatment are particularly sensitive to ultraviolet light.

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