Field laser rejuvenation of the skin (fractional photothermolysis) is one of the most popular areas of modern cosmetology and intimate cosmetology.Due to the high efficiency and absolute safety, the technique allows you to achieve the effect of a powerful skin tightening without surgery, without a hospital, without long -term surgical rehabilitation.
Fractional laser rejuvenation of the skin - mechanism of action
The fractional CO2 laser generates a laser beam with a wavelength of 10.6 microns, which, using a special fractional head, breaks up into many microscopic rays.In the process of exposure to the CO2 fractional laser, micro-thermal therapeutic zones (MLZ) are formed on the skin.After each flash of the laser, 125-250 healing zones remain on the skin per 1 square cm, that is, thousands of microscopic point traces on the skin of the face, instead of continuous coagulation, as with laser grinding.Between them there are spaces of untouched skin, which can significantly reduce the rehabilitation period and exclude reactions such as late depigmentation or hyperpigmentation.Due to thermal stress during fractional laser rejuvenation in micro-zones, point destruction of the cells occurs, and cells of not affected areas receive a powerful stimulus to renew, cell activity increases for the speedy replacement of the defect.Thus, the process of immediate rejuvenation is launched, moreover, fibroblasts are stimulated, that is, cells that produce new collagen and elastin fibers (Neocollagenogenesis and Polistirenas).This process is long -term from 2 weeks to 6-12 months, so the effect of the laser rejuvenation procedure continues to increase and intensifies over time.
Sensations during the procedure of fractional laser rejuvenation
During the procedure of fractional laser rejuvenation, the sensations are absolutely comfortable, if necessary, surface anesthesia is used.The patient feels tingling, the degree of severity of sensations depends on the individual threshold of sensitivity.The time of the procedure for fractional photothermias depends on the area of processing and the task, on average no more than 0.5 - 1 hour.The skin does not require special care after the procedure and you can safely go home.To protect delicate new skin from ultraviolet negative exposure, sunscreen with a protection factor of at least 30 SPF should be used.
Recovery period after fractional laser rejuvenation
Unlike laser grinding (when the conditions of the hospital with a long rehabilitation period were required), the recovery period after fractional rejuvenation is several times shorter.Its duration depends on the area of the conduct and the degree of laser impact.First, this is swelling and redness in the early days, the darkening is possible, then peeling, then the skin is updated and you can enjoy the result - a young fit and beautiful skin in 2 weeks!
Contraindications to fractional laser rejuvenation
- herpes and other inflammatory rashes on the skin in an active stage in the alleged zone of fractional laser rejuvenation;
- chronic skin diseases in the aggravation stage;
- decompensated forms of diabetes and hypertension;
- benign neoplasms in the field of the procedure;
- malignant neoplasms;
- acute infectious diseases with an increase in body temperature;
- taking PhotosensenSitizing drugs inside and external;
- reception of system retinoids;
- epilepsy, mental illness;
- systemic diseases of connective tissue and blood;
- a tendency to the formation of Keloid;
- photodermatitis (allergies in the sun);
- pregnancy.
A combination of fractional laser rejuvenation with other cosmetic procedures
Field laser rejuvenation with hyaluronic acid injections (biorevitalization, contour plastic), Plasmolifting, mesotherapy and Botox injections is very well combined.The safety of the combination and alternation of methods is confirmed by special research, there are no contraindications to the combination, it is only necessary to discuss the intervals between the procedures in each case, depending on the individual characteristics of the body.
Field CO2 laser is used for procedures:
- Non -surgical laser rejuvenation - tightening of the skin of the face, neck, neckline;
- Treatment of postpartum scars, stretch marks (striae) on the stomach, hips, chest;
- Treatment of atrophic scars on the face (post -acne, after chickenpox);
- Increased tone and strengthening the skin of the inside of the shoulders and hips;
- Reduction of expanded pores;
- Removal of pigmentation on the skin of the face, body;
- Smoothing wrinkles and increasing skin elasticity;
- Intimate rejuvenation of vulva and vulvo-vaginal lift;
- Removal of pigmentation of an intimate zone;
- Removing papillomas, Millionov, warts, moles and other neoplasms.
Currently, non -surgical fractional laser rejuvenation is a breakthrough in modern cosmetology, a universally recognized “gold standard” of laser cosmetology in Europe and America.The method is so effective, reliable and safe that it is an alternative to the surgical circular facelift of the face and blepharoplasty.
