A modern technology in cosmetics - laser facial rejuvenation, with which you can effectively combat age-related changes. The device for the procedure is a representative of a new generation of lasers for fractional treatment, which allows you to gently and safely affect the epidermis.
Before starting any antiaging recovery sessions, it is important to familiarize yourself with the list of indications and contraindications, as well as familiarize yourself with the nuances of technology and methods of exposure.
The essence of fractional technology
Laser facial rejuvenation is based on fractional technology. Its essence lies in the non-surgical restoration of the turgor, elasticity, general restoration and activation of synthesis.
The effect on the epidermis and the inner layers of the skin is carried out by the work of laser beams that are passed through the separating hernia. It is able to split the beam into several thinnest micro-beams, creating a point effect on the condition of the tissue.
Locally directed actions do not damage neighboring skin areas. The micro-wounds left by the laser create a stressful heat shock condition for the cells.
You start with the active division, there is an accelerated synthesis of collagen-elastin fibers, which are responsible for the youth and elasticity of the epidermis. With age, the synthesis of collagen and elastin fibers slows, resulting in visible tissue prolapse, the appearance of wrinkles, sagging and ptosis.
Fractional technology immediately stimulates all physiological processes that take place in the deep layers of the epidermis. Micro-damage begins to actively heal, which leads to a natural reduction in the epidermal flap and enables powerful lifting in combination with accelerated wound healing.
The fractional exposure contributes to the creation of a newly formed subcutaneous collagen framework, to the accelerated synthesis of cells and substances and to the activation of physiological microprocesses. In the complex, such an action with a laser beam passed through a partial lattice leads to natural rejuvenation, narrowed pores, a healthy complexion returns, and the relief is smoothed.
At what age is the procedure specified
The laser rejuvenation procedure is effective and safe, but experts say there are relative age restrictions on its implementation.
The use of fraction technology is only recommended at the age of 17, since at this age the formation of skin structures continues and there is the possibility of deep skin damage. In addition, laser rejuvenation should not be used after 60 years. During this time, all recovery processes in the body slow down.
The optimal age to start the procedure is after 25 to 30 years, when the first signs of aging appear. The intensity of the course and the regularity of the sessions are calculated by the beautician based on the indications based on the individual characteristics.
Indications for the laser rejuvenation procedure
Laser facial rejuvenation is a safe fractional technology that is a powerful stimulant to activate internal processes.
The procedures are carried out according to the following information:
- Dull complexion, hyperpigmentation.
- The presence of age-related changes, deep wrinkles in the eye zone, nasolabial folds.
- Dark circles and pockets under the eyes.
- tendency to demodicosis, dilated vessels.
- Negative changes in the texture of the epidermis.
- Pronounced relief, presence of scars and scars on the skin.
- Loss of clarity of lines, swollen oval of the face.
- tendency towards acne breakouts, traces of acne and post-acne, enlarged pores.
Beauticians recommend laser therapy to prevent aging, deep renewal and restoration of the skin structure.
Contraindications
Despite the general positive effect of the laser on the epidermis, some contraindications should be made known before laser therapy sessions.
Fractional tapering is not recommended:
- with a tendency to keloid scars;
- during pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- in case the herpes infection worsens;
- for oncological diseases;
- the presence of severe chronic diseases in the acute stage;
- dermatosis in treatment areas;
- with a lack of immunity;
- skin infections, rashes, skin diseases (psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis);
- epilepsy, autoimmune diseases.
It is not recommended to use a laser beam after chemical peels. A period of at least 2 weeks must pass. Before starting the procedure, the patient must consult a doctor to exclude contraindications that can lead to negative consequences.
Advantages
Fractional laser technology offers many advantages over cosmetic procedures - analogues:
- Laser beams that run through the breakage grid work selectively without damaging the adjacent areas of the epidermis.
- No scars, burns or other serious spots remain on the skin after the laser exposure.
- Rehabilitation after surgery does not take longer than 3-4 days and is usually without complications.
- Laser technology is effective because a specialist can treat a large area of skin in one session. The result is noticeable a few days after a session.
- The procedure is non-invasive, safe and there is no risk of infection. The laser beam works without contact on the surface, but the thermal radiation penetrates deep into the tissue.
Laser rejuvenation is a painless technology. During the sessions, patients can feel a slight tingling sensation without any significant discomfort.
One of the main advantages of the method is its versatility, since the most sensitive and vulnerable painful areas can be subjected to fractional treatment - the area around the eyes, the cleavage, the neck area. The method can be applied to any skin type, regardless of the color type and texture features.
Special feature when grinding with Clear Brilliant
Laser facial rejuvenation is a hardware method performed by certified specialists in a clinic. The innovative dividing device Clear Brilliant belongs to the new generation of devices.
This is a highly sensitive instrument that allows you to control the intensity and depth of exposure with laser microbeams, making it one of the safest. The directional effect of the scattered beam of light penetrates to the required depth, does not injure adjacent areas, does not cause swelling, redness.
The principle of operation is to focus the beam with a built-in manipulator and penetrate it to a depth of no more than 0. 4 mm. The beam diameter is regulated by a built-in optimization system, it is equipped with a moving uniform distribution system
The laser can be used for deep or surface grinding. The wavelength can be set in the range of 1440-1997 Nm depending on the selected exposure method.
Thermal microtrauma occurs to activate internal recovery processes and microcirculation in the treatment areas. The laser is sensitive to the cortical layer and intensifies the natural processes of cell rejuvenation and tissue renewal.
Can be used for any type of photo, including tanned or dark skin. One of the advantages of the device is the painless procedure, a short recovery period and the speed with which large areas of the epidermis are processed in one procedure.
Due to its wide range of applications, the laser can be used not only for facial rejuvenation, but also in complex programs aimed at restoring the elasticity of the skin of the mammary glands, the inner surface of the arms and thighs.
The functional principle of this laser is identical to that of other non-abilative fractionated devices, but is implemented with maximum safety. The most effective method for laser treatment with professional cosmeceuticals.
Sessions are a synthesis of laser exposure and the release of biologically active components in order to eliminate age-related problems and restore the skin's elasticity and youthfulness.
Is it possible to remove the pigmentation?
Modern laser technologies in cosmetology are actively used to eliminate hyperpigmentation. Intensely colored areas look unaesthetic, they can be the result of age-related changes or individual characteristics of melanin production in the skin.
The essence of the procedure for removing age spots by fractional method is a local action on the lower layers of the skin, but without violating the integrity of the subcutaneous layers.
The fractionated laser beam inhibits the melanin, which is responsible for the appearance of age spots. The number of sessions to eliminate pigmentation is determined by a beautician after assessing the condition of the skin, the characteristics of the type of paint, as well as the severity of the color of the spots.
The laser can remove the following:
- freckles;
- "sunspots";
- age-related hyperpigmentation;
- melasma;
- pigmented changes after trauma;
- epidermal birthmarks.
The result is the destruction of melanin in the treated area, cell renewal with the normalization of the accumulation of healthy pigment. As a result, the pigmentation will gradually peel off along with the keratinized layer of the epidermis.
How does the procedure work?
Laser facial rejuvenation is an effective complex procedure that is performed in a specialized salon or clinic.
Before starting the course, it is necessary to complete minimal training: do not sunbathe 2 weeks before the procedure, do not wipe the area with products containing alcohol, exclude chemical peels and aggressive cosmetic procedures.
It is recommended to stop taking antibiotics, sulfonamides and anticoagulants.
Standard session algorithm:
- A consultation is carried out, an assessment of the skin condition is carried out, a medical questionnaire is filled out with the exception of possible contraindications.
- The areas are degreased with a special alcohol-free compound before the laser treatment.
- The organs of vision must be protected with special glasses in order to avoid injuries to the eye mucosa.
- With the fractionated nozzle, the doctor makes 2-3 passes through the treatment zones. The laser heats the areas, the pulse duration, the depth of the beam penetration is regulated by the beautician
- After the session, a special soothing composition is applied to the skin, as well as a regenerating mask that promotes the healing of micro-wounds.
The specialist may recommend using an anesthetic ointment to relieve pain in the most sensitive areas.
During the procedure, patients may experience a slight tingling sensation.
Recovery after laser treatment
The skin after laser treatment must be carefully cared for as the internal regeneration processes are activated. After laser therapy, the skin is most sensitive to the sun. Therefore, a protective cream with a factor of at least SPF 35 should be applied before going outside.
The period after the procedure includes the following activities:
- It is not recommended to visit the solarium or to sunbathe for 2 weeks.
- Avoid heat treatments, baths and saunas, as well as the pool, as the skin becomes more sensitive. It is recommended to take a warm shower instead of a hot bath for 3 days.
- It is strictly forbidden to do chemical peeling and deep scrubbing so as not to injure the epidermis.
- Ensure maximum hydration, apply creams and masks based on hyaluronate.
- Do not wipe the laser-treated areas with detergents, but with antiseptics.
- Avoid applying alcohol-based products to treated areas, which can cause dryness and irritation.
After the laser exposure, the skin can be reddened slightly and begins to peel off. The crusts cannot be removed, this can disrupt the structure of the epidermis. A moisturizing ointment makes the skin softer.
The use of decorative cosmetics is allowed 2 days after the session. But you should choose products with the most natural and light composition. Proper care promotes speedy recovery and eliminates the development of negative side reactions. For a comprehensive restoration, the beautician may recommend taking vitamins and washing with boiled ozonated water.
