Fractional laser rejuvenation: indications, contraindications, effect and characteristics

the essence of fractionated facial skin rejuvenation

The first signs of skin aging appear when you are 25 years old. Unfortunately, this limit is usually not the earliest date, but the latest detection of age problems. Coarse laser rejuvenation for rejuvenation is yesterday’s procedure, and with good reason, because women have the opportunity to do a long red resuscitation of the skin that was very blushed and essentially traumatic during the procedure.

The latest, minimally invasive and safe technology - fractional laser skin rejuvenation, restoring and accelerating cell rhythm (growth and metabolism, and removal of harmful substances).

How does it work? When exposed to a focused laser beam, micro-damage to the skin tissue occurs through a "column" or "cone" perpendicular to the skin surface. The cells surrounding the micro-damage enter a state of heat shock, as a result of which they begin to actively divide to restore the area of ​​skin at the site of the micro-damage. As a result, this leads to tightening of the damaged area, which smoothes the skin, virtually wipes out wrinkles and results in a noticeable lifting effect.

how fractional facial skin rejuvenation occurs

Modern laser cosmetology is characterized by painlessness and comfort during the procedure. There are no traumatic effects, virtually no risks (pay attention to the list of modest contraindications at the end of this article). The biggest advantage is fast recovery. In essence, the main rehabilitation period lasts 1-2 days. This time is determined by the diameter of the microinjury of the skin with the laser; the smaller the rehabilitation, the faster it takes (for example, fractional rejuvenation with a CO2RE laser has received many laudatory reviews). There will be no scars or unnatural shine on the skin, you will see the result immediately after the first procedure and it will not be covered by any swelling or severe redness of the skin.

Features of modern laser facial rejuvenation procedures

Above all, they cleanse the skin of dirt and cosmetics in the area of ​​the intended exposure of the laser. An anesthetic cream is then used (note that there are no over-care clinics that ignore this cure) that almost completely eliminates discomfort during the procedure itself and goes directly beyond working with a laser. You’ll just feel warmth and maybe a subtle tingling.

When selecting a physician, the primary focus should be on adequacy, responsibility, and participation. The practitioner should clearly understand what you want and give a detailed picture of how feasible it is and what is required for it. Together, you select the optimal scheme of procedures, select the optimal mode and depth of exposure. Be sure to listen to any advice on self-care during rehabilitation, find out what other procedures (fillers, injections, massages or masks) can be used to achieve the best effect and for which it is not yet time.

The time of the procedure and the number of procedures required per course depend on the task / problem you are applying to the aesthetic medicine center or clinic. Treatment of the skin of the face and décolletage takes an average of about an hour, the procedure can be single or may require 1-2 repetitions at intervals of 2-6 months.

Mild redness of the skin is possible in the first days, with dead epithelial cells peeling off in the first week. One of the important recommendations of the experts 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, tumors in the treatment area, impaired coagulation and systemic connective tissue diseases, oncological diseases, epileptic diseases. Fractional laser rejuvenation is worth a little waiting if you have a fresh tan / have been actively tanning in the last month, as this has significantly increased the sensitivity of your skin.
