Laser fractional skin rejuvenation is a modern non-invasive and safe method of restoring the structure and rejuvenation of the skin.
The laser fractional rejuvenation procedure accelerates natural metabolic processes in skin cells: growth, division, metabolism, stimulates rapid renewal and production of new cells.The laser fractional skin rejuvenation procedure can be carried out on any part of the body: face, décolleté, hands, abdomen, forearms.
Indications for laser fractional body rejuvenation
- decreased elasticity of the skin and its sagging due to age or photoaging
- presence of warts, papillomas, moles, age spots
- stretch marks, scars, cicatrices,
- dilated vessels and capillaries
It is important to note that laser removal of skin tumors can only be carried out after consultation with a dermatologist.
Details of the procedure
The fractional laser rejuvenation procedure is carried out using local anesthesia, so the patient experiences virtually no pain.The laser beam heats the deep layers of the skin, destroying some of the cells that are unable to recover, freeing up space for the production of healthy cells.
The remaining part of the cells, thanks to thermal exposure, begins to actively work, restoring a sufficient amount of collagen fibers.Thus, renewal and healing of the skin occurs in the treated areas in both the outer and inner layers, which makes it possible to eliminate age-related changes in the skin and get rid of a number of other aesthetic problems.
The laser beam penetrates the skin, causing targeted damage to cells and without causing any harm to surrounding tissues: there are no marks or burns left on the skin tissues around the treatment area.The power and depth of penetration of laser beams are adjusted as needed for each patient.The duration of the procedure is from 30 to 60 minutes and depends on the area of the affected area.
Rehabilitation period
The time for complete recovery after fractional skin rejuvenation is about two weeks.For the first two to four days, there may be redness and slight swelling in the treated areas.At the next stage of healing, peeling may appear.
Skin care products that help restore skin are recommended by the cosmetologist who performed the procedure.Until the skin is completely restored, it is necessary to protect the laser-treated areas from UV rays and - if you carry out the procedure in late spring or summer - apply a sunscreen with a protection factor of at least 50, even on skin hidden by clothing.
Contraindications
The laser fractional skin rejuvenation procedure is absolutely safe, but you should refrain from performing it if the patient has skin tumors or foci of skin diseases (herpes, dermatitis, etc.) in the area of exposure.
Laser skin rejuvenation is prohibited for patients suffering from diabetes, blood clotting disorders, and connective tissue diseases.It is necessary to postpone the procedure during pregnancy and lactation.
