Fractional laser rejuvenation: indications, contraindications, actions and features

the essence of the fractional facial skin rejuvenation procedure

The first signs of skin aging appear when you are 25 years old. Unfortunately, this border is usually not the earliest date, but the most recent detection of age-related problems. Rough laser resuscitation for rejuvenation is now a procedure from yesterday, and for good reason, because women have the opportunity to do so without the long "resuscitation" of skin that is very red and, in effect, traumatized during the procedure.

The latest technology, minimally invasive and safe - 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 skin tissue occurs with "columns" or "cones" perpendicular to the surface of the skin. The cells around the micro-damage go into a heatstroke state, due to which they begin to actively divide to restore the skin area in place of the micro-damage. As a result, this leads to firming of the damaged area, which leaves the skin smooth, practically removing wrinkles and a noticeable lifting effect.

how fractional facial skin rejuvenation is performed

Modern laser make-up is characterized by painlessness and comfort during the procedure. There are no traumatic effects, practically no risks (pay attention to the simple list of contraindications at the end of the article). The biggest advantage is a fast recovery. In essence, the main rehabilitation period lasts 1-2 days. This time is determined by the diameter of the skin micro-damage by the laser, the smaller the laser, the faster the rehabilitation will pass (for example, rejuvenation of fractions with a CO2RE laser has received much rave reviews). You will not have any unnatural scars or sheen on the skin, after the first procedure you will see results immediately, and will not be covered by severe swelling or redness of the skin.

Features of modern laser facial rejuvenation procedures

First of all, this product cleans the skin in the area where it is planned to be exposed to the laser from pollution and cosmetics. Next, an anesthetic cream is used (note that no clinic is too concerned about neglecting this treatment), which almost completely eliminates unpleasant sensations during the procedure itself, and immediately works with the laser. All you will feel is warmth and perhaps a subtle tingling sensation.

When choosing a doctor, focus primarily on adequacy, responsibility and participation. The specialist should clearly understand what you want and give you a detailed picture of how achievable it is and what is required for this. Together you choose the optimal procedure scheme, choose the optimal mode and depth of exposure. Be sure to listen to all the advice on taking care of yourself during rehabilitation, find out what other procedures (fillers, injections, massage courses or masks) can be done for the best effect, and for that is not the time.

The procedure time, as well as the number of procedures required in one course, depends on the assignment / problem you are applying for at a medical center or aesthetic clinic. On average, facial skin care and décolleté take about an hour; the procedure can be single or requires 1-2 repetitions with an interval of 2-6 months in between.

In the first days it may be a little reddish, during the first week the dead skin cells will peel off. One of the important recommendations of specialists during this period is the use of creams with a high protection factor against harmful ultraviolet radiation. According to various estimates, the fractional laser rejuvenation effect can last up to 2 years.

Contraindications for laser rejuvenation procedures: pregnancy and breastfeeding, exacerbation of neurodermatitis and psoriasis, inflammation in the laser treatment area, acute infectious diseases, neoplasms in the treatment area, blood clotting disorders and systemic connective tissue diseases, oncological diseases, epilepsy. Fractional laser rejuvenation is worth the wait if you have fresh tan skin / have been actively using a tanning salon in the past month, as this has significantly increased the sensitivity of your skin.
