The essence and effect of the technique

Laser rejuvenation on facial skin is a technique in which laser radiation acts on the skin. For this, a laser source is used - a laser fitting - a device that makes it possible to adjust the depth of penetration of the laser beam into the skin, the time of exposure and the temperature of the radiation.

The selection of the correct parameters of the procedure is the most important condition for successful rejuvenation, because at the slightest fault of a beautician, burns may appear on the face.

Penetrating into the tissue, the laser beam causes little damage to the cells, in response to the irritation that arises, the cells begin to actively produce collagen and elastin, and the growth of new cells is extended.

Stimulation of the regeneration process leads to a complete renewal of facial skin, its rejuvenation. The second name of this procedure is laser peeling.

  1. The laser reappeared. . . The laser "works" on the surface layer of the epidermis, exfoliating dead cells. The results of the procedure become noticeable after a week: the skin becomes soft to the touch, fine wrinkles disappear. During the procedure, three types of laser beams are used: erbium, carbon or neodymium.
  2. Laser biorevitalization. . . The radiation penetrates the deep layers of the skin, while some cells are destroyed. This technique is harder than laser surfaces, but provides a strong anti-aging effect. To enhance the laser effect, beauticians apply a mixture of nutrients on the skin. After the procedure, deep wrinkles disappear and facial contours improve. Recovery after biorevitalization occurs within three months, severe edema and exfoliation of the epidermis may persist on the face during this period.
  3. Fractional peeling. . . Fractional laser rejuvenation is the most effective and at the same time gentle method. The peculiarity of this procedure lies in the fact that the laser beam is broken down into many micro -rays, as there is a gentler effect on the skin. Radiation hits the skin in the form of a mesh, therefore, the intact area remains in between the focus of cellular damage - this contributes to faster tissue regrowth and a stronger rejuvenating effect. The beam strength during fractional peeling can be altered by using carbon dioxide or an erbium laser.

Procedure stage

Before performing the procedure, you need to make an appointment with a beautician. The doctor identifies the existing problem, asks the patient if there are any contraindications to the procedure, talks about how laser rejuvenation will take place.

If the patient’s skin is prone to increased pigmentation, a whitening cream is prescribed a few days before the rejuvenation session. Patients should know that prior to the procedure, a person should not exercise, exercise physically, or drink alcoholic beverages.

Sequence of performing fractional peeling:

  1. The face is cleansed using conventional cosmetics.
  2. Anesthetic cream is applied to the skin.
  3. After a few minutes, the anesthetic is washed off, the gel is applied to facilitate sliding of the nozzle of the fractional apparatus. Glasses are placed over the patient's eyes.
  4. The doctor moves the nozzle to the face, sequentially affecting each area with a laser.
  5. The treatment lasts for 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.
