Fractional Laser Rejuvenation - Rejuvenation without a scalpel

How is fractional laser facial skin rejuvenation performed

Fractional laser rejuvenation helps to effectively rejuvenate the skin and eliminate aesthetic imperfections of the face and body. Fractional facial rejuvenation, which is a worthy alternative to surgical facelift, is easily tolerated by the patient and has a very short rehabilitation period.

Modern CO2- Lasers with a super pulsed mode generate a beam that penetrates so gently deep into the skin that the rehabilitation time after exposure to such a laser is very short and around two dayslasts. Erbium, neodymium and alexandrite lasers work a little harder.

Why do you need laser rejuvenation and how does it work?

The first signs of aging appear after just 25 years: the appearance of wrinkles, enlarged pores, changes in skin color and structure, loss of the feeling of freshness. Various cosmetic preparations give an unstable and superficial result. In order to truly preserve youth and turn back the clock, it is necessary to activate the normal function of skin cells and restore the natural mechanism of their growth and renewal.

The light beam heats up and specifically evaporates the deep layers of the epidermis. A "hole" forms at the exposure site, around which the tissue immediately contracts and the cells begin to actively regenerate. The jet also affects the collagen fibers that make up the skin's scaffold and plays a huge role in maintaining the skin's youth. Briefly heating collagen fibers with a laser beam stimulates their renewal and growth. In light of the above, after the procedure, the effects will increase within six months and last for at least two years.

Advantages and disadvantages of fractional skin rejuvenation

In other words, the skin receives a heat shock that activates its renewal, eliminating various skin defects: wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, age spots. The result is visible immediately after the procedure, as the skin contracts immediately and, due to the restructuring of the collagen, it grows within six months.

Fractional laser facial rejuvenation smoothes imperfections and scars, including post-acne, smoothes wrinkles, shrinks pores, smoothes the complexion, and improves the clarity of the oval.

For maximum and lasting results, a multi-procedure course is recommended - 2-4 sessions per month.

I have to say that a fractional laser is the optimal way to remove stretch marks by combining high efficiency and gentle effect. However, a longer course is required for these purposes.
