What is laser rejuvenation?
Laser rejuvenation is the non-surgical restoration of youthful skin in the shortest possible time. This procedure is performed using laser beams of different strengths, a complete course consisting of 3-5 sessions with breaks per month. The effectiveness of this technique is so high that positive results will be seen after the first time.
The laser rejuvenation procedure has a cumulative effect, because after the first session in the deep layers of the skin, the natural processes of elastin and collagen production are activated, which are responsible for skin smoothness and elasticity.With each subsequent session, the skin is rejuvenated, the maximum effect can be observed six months after the start of the procedure.
Different clinics do different laser rejuvenation courses; as standard, it takes 5 sessions to complete the procedure at an interval of a month. This method is gentle on the skin and allows you to rejuvenate your face in the most natural way. The accelerated course consists of 5 sessions every 5 days, such a quick rejuvenation is very effective, because it allows you to restore freshness and facial beauty in just a month, but the effect will not last long, only about 1-2 years.

This is not a whole list of positive qualities of laser rejuvenation, using this method you can get rid of almost any skin imperfections in no time and without any health risks. The main thing is to choose an experienced specialist, who recommends carrying out such a procedure exclusively in specialized clinics.
How is laser rejuvenation performed?
Immediately before starting the procedure, the face should be completely clean, where a gentle scrub and exfoliating composition is used. Laser treatments are performed exclusively on clean skin.
Depending on the desired finish, individual areas of the face and the entire surface of the skin can be laser treated. The best option is to rejuvenate not only the face, but also the neck and décolleté.
The laser beam penetrates deep into the skin, warming its inner layers, thereby actively reducing old collagen fibers, which automatically trigger the production of new ones. Laser rejuvenation of the face is carried out in impulses with a duration of 0. 2 to 0. 5 ms, which is completely safe and does not pose a risk to human health.
The result of laser exposure to the skin is a newly formed healing focus - a separate area of the face, where the active processes of natural elastin production take place. A big plus is the fact that the outer layer of the skin has intact microscopic areas, this makes the recovery process almost invisible externally, that is, there are no transition points between the renewed skin, no swelling and no bumps.
After the process ends, the face is treated with a special emollient solution, it is not recommended to use decorative cosmetics for a few hours and bask in the sun for a long time. Otherwise, there are no contraindications, although most experts recommend that the first days after the session do not visit the beach and solarium, and also do not expose your face to strong weather and contact with salt or chlorinated water.
