It's a shame, it looks like I'm still young - and wrinkles, age spots and other cosmetic blemishes are already appearing. You can get rid of them with a fractional rejuvenation process. How does it work;
You always want to look beautiful, regardless of age. But time passes uncontrollably and is reflected in appearance. Over the years, the skin becomes less elastic, wrinkles, age spots and other visible defects appear. Modern technologies allow you to prolong youth, using laser exposure in problem areas. Let's discover fractional rejuvenation: what it is, how it happens and the results of this process.
What is this
Cells lose their activity over time, which slows down regeneration processes. It is necessary to return the youth not only visually, but also to help the cell recover and continue its active work. Only in this way the skin will get a healthy look, tightness and smooth.
The first fractional laser rejuvenation took place in 2004. It was developed specifically for the treatment of aging spots. After obtaining the first studies and results with excellent results, the procedure was actively used in many beauty salons. The actions are completely safe, effectively combating cosmetic defects.
Advantages and execution technique
Laser rejuvenation has many benefits that show why it is worth using this anti-aging method:
- one procedure is enough for good results.
- is not a function.
- safe, without side effects.
- there is no need for a long recovery period.
- The result is similar to the Botox injection technique.
- has a long duration.
This method of rejuvenation is called fractional, as it only affects problem areas that are exposed to small laser beams. The untouched areas, ie the skin cells, begin to actively function, multiply and heal quickly the areas treated with laser. The full recovery period does not last more than three days, depending on the condition of the skin. Collagen is actively produced in cells, which in turn:
- smoothes wrinkles, folds.
- the skin tightens.
- aligns the oval of the face.
- Pigment stains are reduced.
The procedure does not cause discomfort, it is painless, the redness disappears quickly. The fractional action of the laser is somewhat similar to the method of re-entry of the rays, but it has more possibilities and is more effective. In another way, it is called photorejuvenation.
The principle of action is that damaged skin is exposed to heat shock at fairly high temperatures. The beautician uses a small device in which the elements are installed, through which the laser beams penetrate. As the rays are very hot, the skin is processed very quickly to avoid burns.
The result depends on the severity of the defects. The deeper the wrinkles, the more treatments will be needed. The time of treatment also depends on the individual and on his state of health.
The skin is sufficiently exposed to a laser beam thinner than two hundred microns, so that a new layer of skin appears in the treatment area. The rays look like a thin grid and are applied exclusively to problem areas, on the face, neck, legs, around the eyes. This grid allows the surrounding areas not to be affected and allows them to activate cell healing and repair.
Types of photorejuvenation
In the field of cosmetology, two types of fractional thermolysis are used, which differ in the degree of impact and the main characteristics.
- Removal method- the thermoactivity acts on the upper layers of the skin, the cells.
- Non-relational rejuvenation- laser beams act exclusively on the deeper layers of the skin.
Many fractional machines today use CO2 laser beams. They are more advanced and have advanced to a new level in recent years. Before starting the procedure, it is worth clarifying which laser will be used, the quality and performance depend on it.
For best results, a combination of two types of fractional thermolysis - subtraction and non-relativism - is recommended. The double impact helps to improve the result and maintains it for a long time. Thanks to modern equipment, cosmetologists develop rejuvenation programs for skin type and health status.
When to discard
Like any other intervention in the physical work of the body, the fractional rejuvenation of the face has its own contraindications. Ft procedures should not be performed if:
- you are pregnant.
- you have epilepsy.
- for oncology?
- severe inflammation of the skin, with psoriasis.
- for herpes?
- if you have recently had a chemical peel on your face.
- or sunbathing.
- has vitiligo.
- chronic diseases such as diabetes, poor blood clotting.
Contraindications should not be ignored, as the existing problem can be significantly exacerbated by heat exposure and aggravate the condition.
What to expect
Photothermolysis is intended for lifting the face and rejuvenating the skin. With the help of cosmetic procedures, it is immediately felt how the skin tightens, wrinkles disappear within a few days and the contours become clearer. To make the result even better, it is recommended to perform various procedures with a difference of one month to six months, depending on the first result.
To improve the condition of the face, many cosmetologists recommend combining fractional types of CO2 exposure with a laser. This, in turn, allows you to maintain your youth for a long time, prolong skin regeneration processes and prevent premature aging.
The patient recovers fairly quickly, within a week. Synchronization also depends directly on the type selected. For the first day or two, the skin becomes noticeably swollen, there is redness. However, after 4-5 days, the dead cells leave the skin, the skin is covered with a new and healthy layer. If you coordinate your actions properly, choose a good, responsible cosmetologist, find out if there are contraindications, then the process of photorejuvenation will be only for good.
