Fractional laser rejuvenation helps to effectively rejuvenate the skin and remove aesthetic imperfections of the face and body. Fractional facial rejuvenation, as a worthy alternative to surgical lifting, is easily tolerated by the patient and has a very short rehabilitation period.
In this way, modern CO2- superpulsed lasers give a beam that penetrates so gently deep into the skin that the rehabilitation period after exposure to such a laser is very short and takes about two days. . Erbium, neodymium and alexandrite lasers have a slightly harsher effect.
Why you need laser rejuvenation and how it works
After the age of twenty-five, the first signs of skin aging appear: the appearance of wrinkles, enlarged pores, changes in skin color and texture, loss of skin feeling. Various cosmetics give unstable and superficial results. In order to truly preserve youth and turn the clock back, it is necessary to activate the normal functioning of skin cells, to restore the natural mechanism of their growth and renewal.
The light beam is heated and purposefully evaporates the deep layers of the epidermis. A "hole" forms at the site of exposure, around which tissue instantly shrinks and cells begin to actively regenerate. The beam also affects the collagen fibers that make up the skin frame and play a huge role in maintaining the youth of the skin. Short-term heating of collagen fibers with a laser beam stimulates their renewal and growth. In view of the above, the effect after the procedure increases for six months and lasts at least two years.
In other words, the skin receives heat shock, which activates its renewal, which leads to the removal of various skin defects: wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, age spots. The result is visible immediately after the procedure, as there is an immediate contraction of the skin and it increases within six months due to the restructuring of collagen.
Fractional laser facial rejuvenation leads to the smoothing of bumps and scars, including, after acne, smoothing wrinkles, shrinking pores, smoothing the complexion and improving the clarity of its oval.
For maximum and lasting results, a course of several procedures is recommended - 2-4 sessions each month.
I must say that the fractional laser is the most optimal way to remove stretch marks, combining high efficiency and gentle effect. But a longer course is required for these purposes.
