Fractional laser grinding

young and old skin

Modern methods of hardware cosmetology allow you to quickly and effortlessly look younger by 5-6 years without resorting to plastic surgery. Among the popular techniques is fractional laser rejuvenation. Helps restore skin elasticity, reduce wrinkles, eliminate age-related pigmentation. The method gives an effect due to light radiation with different spectrum and power.

Characteristics of the procedure

Fractional laser skin rejuvenation is a non-surgical technology that allows millions of women to regain fresh, firm skin on the face, neck and décolleté. Photothermolysis removes the keratinized layers of the dermis. As a result, the relief of the skin is evened out, fine wrinkles are smoothed and the oval is restored. In the office of medical cosmetologists, specialists restore the charm of youth with the help of an innovative device. We will choose the optimal set of procedures for you and will provide rejuvenation of all areas that excite you.

The effectiveness of the technology is based on a deep point effect on skin cells. The laser beams form the thinnest grid and penetrate to a certain depth. They heat certain cells of the dermis to 70-80 ° C, leaving the adjacent areas intact. Untreated areas are tightened to restore the integrity of the skin and create a lasting lifting effect.

Laser rejuvenation can be:

superficial (ablative)

Deep

The method copes well with the first signs of aging. The beam affects the cells of the epidermis to a depth of not more than 1, 5 mm.

The radiation penetrates 5 mm. Under its influence, the production of collagen and elastin is accelerated, due to which the membrane framework is updated.

Indications for the procedure

Fractional laser surfing is recommended if you have:

  • pronounced pores;
  • scars, scars, stretch marks;
  • dark spots;
  • gravitational ptosis (appearance of wrinkles, sagging eyelids and corners of the lips, cheeks);
  • reduced elasticity and turgor of the skin;
  • hyper- or parakeratosis (excessive growth of the epidermis and the appearance of a granular effect).

Advantages of fractional laser rejuvenation

Individual settings

The laser device is designed for flexible regulation of the radiation power. The cosmetologist sets the parameters, taking into account the patient's skin type and existing aesthetic defects.

Easy recovery

The reaction of the tissues to the laser radiation lasts about 30-48 hours, while the rejuvenating effect becomes noticeable after a week.

Safety

A wide range of settings allows the most gentle treatment of the skin in the most sensitive areas: neck, mammary glands, décolleté. Superficial fractional laser rejuvenation of the lower and upper eyelids is also possible. The nozzle of the appliance does not come into contact with the skin, so there is no risk of infection.

Less traumatic

Unlike the method of point cauterization of the skin on the problem areas, after which the burns remain for a long time, fractional rejuvenation does not leave such defects due to fine-tuning of the equipment. The likelihood of hyperpigmentation and scarring of the skin after the procedure is minimized.

Compatibility with other techniques

Fractional laser surfing enhances the effects of other anti-aging procedures. It can be done in a complex:

  • with plasmalifting,
  • botox,
  • contour plastic,
  • mesotherapy.

stages of fractional rejuvenation

The fractional laser rejuvenation session can last from a few minutes to 1 hour. The exact time is determined by the volume of work and the area of rejuvenation.

Skin care after a fractional laser rejuvenation session

It is recommended to cancel visits to saunas, swimming pools and baths for 10 days. You can sunbathe in the solarium no earlier than 3 months after the end of the course of procedures. During this period, areas subjected to photothermolysis must be protected from the sun with products with an SPF level of 30 units or more. Otherwise, the risk of hyperpigmentation increases.

To accelerate cell regeneration and eliminate the feeling of tightness and dryness, apply a healing cream on the skin during the first two days at intervals of 4-5 hours.

For additional deep hydration of the cells, a biorevitalization procedure can be performed 2 weeks after the photothermolysis.

The use of scrubs and peels is not allowed within 10 days after the session. This can reduce the protective properties of the skin and slow down the regeneration process.

After 10-14 days, moisturizing masks with collagen can be applied.

Do not apply the patch to damaged areas of skin. It slows down the recovery process and can cause discomfort.

When choosing skin care products, pay attention to their composition. They must not contain glycolic acid and retinol. If these substances are present, it will be possible to use a cosmetic product only 2 weeks after photothermolysis and 2 weeks before the next session.
