Laser non-removable rejuvenation allows you to tighten the skin, reduce expression lines, improve the skin, smooth out the relief and tighten the pores. This mild version of laser exposure is recommended for people with photo marks and aging skin.
Laser and non-abstract laser rejuvenation: what is the difference?
Abstract and non-abstract rejuvenation methods differ in the degree of laser exposure to the treated area.
Laser removers, which act on the skin, destroy its surface. The temperature of the treated areas rises almost immediately to 150 ° C. There is a targeted, controlled wound on the skin to begin the healing process.
The exposure depth depends on the laser used. Carbon dioxide penetrates deeper than the erbium, trapping the upper part of the skin. The stronger the impact, the longer the recovery period the customer will have to go through.
The non-subtraction process is milder and has no recovery period. The doctor selects the power and diameter of the laser light beam, which ensure that the beam penetrates deep into the skin. The surface of the treated skin area is not disturbed, only hyperemia remains.
The essence of non-abstract laser rejuvenation, the result of the method
The firmness of the skin depends on the amount of structural proteins. These include elastin and collagen. They are responsible for the skin's ability to stretch and contract.
If the amount of structural proteins in the skin decreases, it recovers worse after stretching, it becomes flabby and loose. Wrinkles begin to appear.
Laser beam, which is a directed beam of light:
- Affects the structure of the skin.
- Protein denaturation occurs.
- Stimulates the synthesis of new molecules of collagen and elastin.
The purpose of non-abstract laser treatment is to heat the structural proteins to 42-80 ° C. At the temperature limit, denaturation of the protein occurs: it thickens, activating the aseptic inflammation, which leads to the beginning of the recovery process. New fibroblast cells appear and the skin is gradually renewed.
Today, clients of cosmetology clinics have access to neodymium, erbium, diode or alexandrite laser laser rejuvenation.
Advantages of the process, disadvantages
Indications for non-abstract laser rejuvenation are:
- Photo and chronic aging of the skin of the face, neck, décolleté, hands.
- Decreased tone.
- Abnormal skin
- After acne?
- Scars?
- Vascular asterisks.
The benefits of non-laser laser rejuvenation include:
- Frugal impact. The laser leaves no visible damage. Rarely, slight swelling may occur.
- Physiological rejuvenation?
- Quick recovery. The surface of the skin is not disturbed, after the procedure, hyperemia, which disappears within 24 hours.
- The accuracy of the impact. The laser device adjusts the light beam diameter, pulse power and various operating options.
The process has its drawbacks:
- More procedures are required than the subtraction method.
- Gentle impact is not able to eliminate deep scars.
- Monthly repetition. It is recommended to do a course of 3-6 procedures every 14-30 days. Then the cumulative effect will be fully manifested and the effect will be more noticeable.

Possible complications
The possibility of complications during non-abstract laser rejuvenation is significantly lower than with traditional treatments (chemical and acid peels, surgeries, etc. ). The main risk is untrained staff and low quality equipment. The problem is easily solved by checking the reviews of the clinic.
In a personal meeting with a cosmetologist, you should ask a question about the training of a cosmetologist and ask for a certificate for laser.
It will not be superfluous to clarify when the last service of the machine was done and to ask for confirmation that the laser is OK.
The patient should inform the doctor about possible allergic reactions to the drugs. Before the procedure, the doctor is obliged to tell about contraindications.
How does non-removable laser skin rejuvenation work?
Before preparing for non-removable laser rejuvenation, note that this procedure requires mandatory consultation with a physician. The cosmetologist evaluates the condition of the skin, predicts the result, chooses a technique based on the individual characteristics of the patient's skin. It is important to make sure that there are no contraindications: pregnancy, skin tumors, inflammation and infectious diseases, etc.
Preparing for the session
Before the procedure for non-abstract rejuvenation, it is worth stopping the use of alcohol, tetracycline antibiotics, anticoagulants and retinol.
There should be no damage to the treated area of skin.
One week before going to the doctor, you should give up aggressive peels, cosmetics that contain alcohol. Immediately before visiting the clinic, you do not need to apply decorative cosmetics, creams and lotions on the treated area.
Techniques
The cosmetologist chooses the procedure for the procedure, the intensity of the radiation, the treatment area. The customer goes through 4 stages:
- Accommodation. The patient lies on the couch, taking a comfortable position, in which he will spend 10 to 30 minutes. Hair is removed from the forehead under a disposable cap.
- Face cleaning. The doctor removes cosmetic residues, sebum and other impurities.
- Laser treatment. The scanner in scan mode processes the required areas.
- To reduce redness, a cream is applied to the treated area, which stimulates regenerative processes.
Most people do not feel pain during the non-abstract rejuvenation. For a client with sensitive skin, the doctor will offer a local anesthetic.
Recovery
Slight redness in the treatment area and a feeling of inner warmth. These symptoms go away on their own in 1-2 days.
For best results, the first 3-4 days, you should protect the treated areas from high temperatures: leave the bath, sauna, solarium for 2 weeks. You do not need to rub the skin with your hands, make an active massage, apply decorative cosmetics.
Prices for non-abstract laser rejuvenation
Depending on the device used in the clinic and the type of radiation source (erbium, neodymium, diode, etc. ), the price of non-removable laser facial skin rejuvenation ranges from $ 45 to $ 330. The number of recommended procedures is at least three, the full course will cost the client $ 140-1000.
Throat and hand treatments are cheaper - from $ 28 to $ 125 (these areas usually cost the same). Neckline - from $ 33 to $ 145. The procedure can be applied to other parts of the body: abdomen, buttocks, thighs, shoulders and arms. A number of clinics offer partial treatment: treatment of the frontal area, the nose, the wrinkles of the face near the eyes.
Many clinics offer a complex: face + décolleté, face plus neck, face + neck + décolleté, etc. Such general anti-aging treatments are cheaper than individual bandaging.
The cost of the service is set independently by each clinic. A significant drop in prices should be worrying. There is a possibility that the clinic will use low quality equipment or will not follow the recommendations for the replacement of consumable parts of the device.
Critics
On the websites of cosmetology clinics, clients post reviews about non-removable laser rejuvenation, share their impressions and tips, post "before" and "after" photos.
"I have completed a complete laser rejuvenation program. I will tell you about the process itself, so that beginners know what to expect: the beam heats up. It feels like a light shock, it burns a little, but you can handle it. If someone has had laser hair removal, then it is an one-on-one emotion.
The face after the treatment turned slightly red, but you can safely go to work the next day. The result accumulates gradually: the face is visibly smoothed, the skin thickens. After 5 days, my skin peeled slightly, but there was nothing that peeled straight. In general, I am happy with how the result will disappear, I intend to repeat it ".
"The first time I decided to have a laser non-removable skin rejuvenation was in 2015. And I was shocked by the result! For the first few hours my face burned, as if scalded with boiling water. Then the impressions were, as a slight tan did not tighten. The second time I decided after a persistent advertisement of my friend. She did it in another clinic and became noticeably younger, by 10 years.
I went for a consultation with a beautician, he explained to me that the first time the power was chosen incorrectly. I told you something about wavelengths, how a neodymium laser works, but I did not understand anything. And the second time I liked everything! So now I advise everyone. The main thing is to find a competent specialist.
In most reviews of non-laser laser rejuvenation, patients see a visible result.
Non-abrasive laser rejuvenation helps maintain skin tone, prolongs youth. The absence of aggressive effects allows people with sensitive skin to use the procedure.
A cosmetologist should be consulted before performing non-abstract rejuvenation.
